CHICAGO (CBS) – Mayor Rahm Emanuel will seek to revise the city’s gun control ordinance, after a federal judge ruled part of the 2010 law is unconstitutional.

Last week, U.S. District Judge Samuel Der-Yeghiayan struck down a portion of the Chicago Firearm Ordinance that barred anyone convicted of “unlawful use of a weapon” from obtaining a city gun permit. He ruled that section was too vague and unfairly barred people with non-violent gun convictions from ever again owning a firearm in Chicago.
“The Chicago Firearm Ordinance basically provides that anyone convicted of a nonviolent misdemeanor offense relating to a firearm is forever barred from exercising his constitutional right to possess a firearm in his own home for self-defense,” Der-Yeghiayan wrote. “There is something incongruent about a non-violent person, who is not a felon, but who is convicted of a misdemeanor offense of simple possession of a firearm, being forever barred from exercising his constitutional right to defend himself in his own home in Chicago against felons or violent criminals.”
The judge also noted different states define “unlawful use of a weapon” differently; in some states, the crime includes simply carrying a gun in public, in others it includes only firing a weapon, or possessing one with the intent of doing harm.
Der-Yeghiayan ruled in favor of Chicago resident Shawn Gowder, who was denied a city gun permit because of a misdemeanor conviction for unlawful use of a weapon. The judge ruled Gowder’s Second Amendment right to bear arms was violated by being denied a gun permit for a non-violent misdemeanor conviction.
The mayor said the proposed revision to the gun ordinance would do away with the portion banning permits for anyone with a conviction for unlawful use of a weapon, but noted the ordinance is only part of the city’s anti-crime strategy.
“Having strong gun laws is complementary to putting more police on the street, which is also complementary to getting kids into after-school activities or summer camps … to also making sure that you lock up the hard criminals,” Emanuel said.
The existing gun ordinance was passed in 2010, after the U.S. Supreme Court tossed out Chicago’s ban on possessing handguns within city limits, ruling it violated the Second Amendment right to bear arms.

Eric Holder under gun fire from congress could face impeachment along with Obama

Embattled Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. refused to say today whether he would consider resigning if a federal probe into the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ disastrous “Fast and Furious” operation threatens President Obama’s re-election.
The question was posed to Holder by a Herald reporter at the Seaport World Trade Center, where he delivered a keynote address on the state of civil rights to a packed room of federal prosecutors and local law enforcement. Holder kept on walking and didn’t answer.
In just two days, the U.S. House of Representatives is expected to take a historic vote, potentially to hold Holder in contempt of Congress for allegedly refusing to turn over documents about the two-year gun-tracking investigation in Mexico that resulted in the murder of a Border Patrol agent.

 

A self-effacing Holder drew awkward laughs from the symposium hosted by longtime pal U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz when, while touching upon how busy his schedule is, he said, “It’s going to get really busy on Thursday, apparently.”
Holder’s motorcade pulled up to the World Trade Center just as, mere yards away, Obama’s was leaving the Westin Hotel in the Seaport District for Logan International Airport following last night’s successful Democratic fundraiser at Symphony Hall.
Obama has also stymied Congress’ questions about “Fast and Furious” by exerting executive privilege for the first time in his presidency.
Ortiz, who has known Holder for 30 years, said he is “a person of integrity” who practically “grew up in the Department of Justice.”
“I think the attorney general is handling himself extremely well under the circumstances,” she said.

Harris Bank La Grange and the La Grange National Bank robbed by the Italian Orginized crime group called the Chicago outfit

The three men that robbed the First National Bank of La Grange are affiliated with the Chicago outfit

Joseph "Jerry" Scalise, 73, of Clarendon Hills; Robert "Bobby" Pullia, 69, of Plainfield; and Arthur "Art" Rachel, 71, of Chicago were charged with attempt and conspiracy to commit armed robbery in a 58-page criminal complaint filed Friday in the U.S. District Court in Chicago.
Judge Nan R. Nolan ordered the men held.
The three men have been the focus of a joint investigation between FBI and La Grange police since July 2007, when the men were suspected of robbing the Harris Bank branch at 1000 S La Grange Rd in July 2007. Approximately $120,000 was reported taken in that incident.
Using electronic surveillance, law enforcement officials this past December learned of plans to rob the First National Bank of La Grange at 620 W Burlington Ave. The suspects were observed on several occasions in the vicinity of the bank, most notably on Thursdays when an armored car routinely arrived at the bank to pick up substantial amounts of cash, police said.
All three men have extensive criminal records and ties to organized crime. In fact, they were arrested Thursday while attempting to break into the home of a deceased mob boss, Angelo "The Hook" LaPietra, who resided in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood.
Scalise and Rachel achieved notoriety in 1980 when they robbed a jeweler in London, England, of $3.6 million in valuables, including the 45-carat Marlborough Diamond. Following their arrest upon arriving at O'Hare airport, the duo was extradited back to London, where they were subsequently convicted and served 12 years in prison.

The three are now looking at charges of income tax invasion, conspericy to with hold earning, illegal gambling with out a license, and murder. U.S. District Court Attorney stated in a press release Friday that more charges are pending.

Cook County Judge at Bridgeview court found murder fit to stand trial

 

 

 

 

 

Indian Head Park, IL —

John L. Wilson Jr., the man charged with murdering 14-year-old Lyons Township High School freshman Kelli O’Laughlin, was found fit to stand trial today based on a report conducted by Cook County Forensic Clinical Services that claimed Wilson can be “lying and manipulative” and showed no psychotic symptoms.
The report, conducted by Drs. Susan Messina and Peter Lourgos, said although Wilson allegedly claimed to hear voices, his descriptions were inconsistent and vague and “not convincing nor credible” as “he has done similarly in the past.”
While the report did indicate that Wilson showed anti-social behavior, it also said he does not suffer from mental illness and has a clear understanding of what’s occurring and even stated that Wilson has authored his own legal documents in the past.
The report was made after Messina and Lourgos individually went over extensive documentation of Wilson, including psychological summaries made in previous cases, grand jury proceedings, investigative summaries, as well as interviews with Wilson.
Included in the report were statements made by Wilson’s previous attorney in an unrelated 2003 case who said, “I don’t have any doubt he’s fit.”
Wilson would, according to the report, “do crazy stuff” to get out of his cell, including shove his own feces under the door because of lack of attention. The report also stated that Wilson “is impulsive and without insight.”
However, the report also indicated that he liked to make use of the legal library, including on Nov. 5 when his request to use the library was denied, resulting in the alleged feces-shoving incident.
After the report was read aloud in court, Associate Judge John Hynes asked Wilson if he understood, to which he replied, “yes.”
Hynes then asked Wilson if he’d like to retain the services of his attorney, John Paul Carroll, who was defending Wilson for free.
Wilson said, “no.” Instead, he said he’d like to represent himself.
Hynes strongly advised against Wilson’s request, and reminded Wilson of the charges against him and the penalties, including a minimum of 20 years with no possibility of parole and a maximum of life in prison for the first-degree murder charge alone.
“These are serious matters,” Hynes told Wilson. “I think you need to think hard and fast about this.”
In the meantime, Hynes has appointed the Cook County Public Defender’s Office on the case.
If Wilson continues to seek to represent himself, he will have to meet with Hynes in order to determine if he is competent to represent himself.
Former attorney Carroll wouldn’t speculate as to whether or not this was attempt to stall the court proceedings, but did say he was surprised with Wilson’s decision.
“I always think it’s scary for a person to not have an attorney,” Carroll said. “To me, it’s just insane.”

no concept of sacred ground Albino monkey rips off church in La Grange and gets caught with the golden banana in his ass

 

La Grange, IL -
Police arrested a Naperville man after he allegedly stole money from donation boxes at the St. Francis Xavier Church on Monday.
Daniel Blubaugh, 31, of 1350 E. Ogden Ave., was arrested after two officers hid inside the church after church officials had contacted police when they noticed a recent pattern of Sunday donations coming up missing, according to police reports.
At 1:20 a.m., Blubaugh was observed entering the church and removing money from donation boxes, police said.
Blubaugh was charged with felony burglary to a place of worship, possession of burglary tools and resisting arrest.
