Judge Gives Probation to Las Vegas Teen Who Fatally Shot Dad over Taking Away Electronics

A judge ordered probation on Thursday for the teenager who fatally shot his father on December 28 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The accused is 16-year-old Lincoln Peterson. HIs mother said the deadly incident happened after the boy’s family took his electronics away because of his bad grades, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported on Thursday.

His parents reportedly believed he was “sneaking electronics” and a fight erupted.

“The teen said his mother had struck him with a belt, according to an adult certification order. He was running from his parents when he picked up a handgun sitting on top of a dryer and fired backward,” the article read. However, the teenager claimed he was unaware he hit someone.

Newsom’s Faulty ‘Fact Check’ on Fatal Truck Accident Falls Flat

CLAIM: Trump allowed in a migrant truck driver now charged with killing three people in an illegal U-turn.

VERDICT: FALSE. The driver, who entered illegally, obtained a work permit after being denied by Trump.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) is at it again, this time trying to deflect blame for his state granting a commercial driver’s license (CDL) to Harjinder Singh, who allegedly killed three other drivers on August 12.

Breitbart News reported this weekend on the accident, which has led to charges of vehicular homicide:

The driver of a semi-truck involved in the deaths of three Americans has been identified as Harjinder Singh, an illegal alien from India who illegally entered the U.S. in 2018 across the U.S. border with Mexico.

The accident occurred near Fort Pierce, Florida, on August 12, when a northbound semi-truck allegedly crossed over all lanes as the driver tried to use an “official use only” turn opening on the Florida Turnpike so he could head south.

The abrupt crossing of all lanes gave other drivers little time to slow down, resulting in a Chrysler Town & Country slamming head-on into the trailer. All three of the car’s occupants died as a result of the collision, two at the scene and a third at a hospital, according to WPTV-TV.

…

Officials initially noted that the men in the cab of the semi were from California, and video of the drivers’ dashcam was released. A statement from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FHSMV) said Singh obtained a commercial driver’s license (CDL) in California.

Newsom began arguing with the White House, blaming Trump for admitting Singh into the U.S. and defending the policy of providing driver’s licenses to illegal migrants, saying it “improves public safety.”

Parents Face Jail Time if Kids Go Wild: NJ Township’s Bold New Crackdown

In Gloucester Township, New Jersey, a new ordinance titled “Minors and Parent Responsibility” took effect following its passage by the township council on July 28, 2025.

This measure holds parents or guardians legally accountable for offenses committed by their children under 18, aiming to address public disturbances through increased supervision.

The ordinance emerged in response to escalating juvenile incidents, reflecting broader concerns about youth behavior in the community.

The catalyst for this law was a chaotic brawl at the township’s annual community day event on June 1, 2024, during a drone light show at Veterans Park.

Around 500 unsupervised youths gathered, leading to multiple fights that required assistance from neighboring police departments and resulted in 12 arrests, including 10 juveniles aged 13 to 17.

Two officers sustained injuries, and the event, which supported the Gloucester Township Scholarship Committee for over 40 years, was disrupted, prompting the cancellation of the 2025 celebration.

Gloucester Township Police Chief David Harkins described the 2024 incident as involving unprecedented disrespect and violence from unsupervised teens, many dropped off via rideshares from outside areas.

Under the ordinance, parents face graduated consequences based on the frequency of their child’s offenses.

Trump Denied Work Permit, Biden Approved — Now Three Americans Dead

A deadly highway crash in Florida has brought renewed scrutiny to federal immigration policies after it was revealed that the driver responsible, an illegal alien from India, had been granted a work permit under the Biden administration despite being previously denied under the Trump administration, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.

On Tuesday of last week, Harjinder Singh, a truck driver originally from Punjab, India, made an illegal U-turn on Florida’s Turnpike near Fort Pierce.

The maneuver caused a collision with a minivan, leaving three people dead. Singh was later arrested in Stockton, California, on Saturday and charged with three counts of vehicular homicide.

Video footage captured Singh exiting his 18-wheeler following the crash, showing little visible reaction as he inspected the wreckage that left three victims dead.

State Department revokes over 6,000 student visas over assault, DUI, terrorism support: report

The State Department in roughly the past seven months has revoked more than 6,000 student visas over assault, DUIs, burglary, terrorism support, and overstays, according to a newsreport Monday.

“Every single student visa revoked under the Trump Administration has happened because the individual has either broken the law or expressed support for terrorism while in the United States,” a senior State Department official told Fox News. “About 4,000 visas alone have been revoked because these visitors broke the law while visiting our country, including records of assault and DUIs.” 

About 800 students had their visas revoked due to being arrested for or charged with assault, according to the official. Meanwhile, the 200-300 students whose visas were pulled for their support of terrorism had raised funds for the terrorist group Hamas, or committed similar actions.

In total, about 40,000 visas have been revoked this year by the State Department, compared to 16,000 during the same timeframe under the Biden administration.

Far-Left Anarchist Group Formed During BLM Riots Behind Texas ICE Shooting Ambush

Suspects arrested in connection with a brazen attack on a Texas ICE detention facility have been linked to a secretive far-left Antifa anarchist group that emerged after meeting during the violent Black Lives Matter protests of 2020.

The group, which included transgender activists, allegedly orchestrated a military-style ambush that left one police officer wounded on July 4 at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas.

During the attack, which authorities have called a coordinated ambush, a group of assailants dressed in black military-style clothing opened fire on ICE agents. One officer was shot in the neck.

Following an intensive investigation, 11 individuals were arrested, facing serious charges including attempted murder of federal officers, discharging a firearm in relation to a crime of violence, and obstruction of justice for trying to conceal evidence, according to a report from the New York Post.

Leading the suspects is Benjamin Hanil Song, a former U.S. Marine Corps reservist, who was charged with three counts of attempted murder and three counts of discharging a firearm. Song is accused of purchasing four firearms used in the attack and hosting weekly training sessions focused on close-quarters combat and large-scale gunfights. He was apprehended in Dallas after a weeklong manhunt.

Among the other suspects are Autumn Hill and Meagan Morris, both identified as transgender.

The group initially focused on “social justice” demonstrations, the far-left extremists later shifted their attention to targeting ICE enforcement operations. It’s unclear exactly how many of the attackers were core members, but the group operated out of Dallas and attracted young, impressionable leftists.

Corey Lyon, a libertarian who attended some of the sessions but later cut ties with Song, told The Post, “The people that were showing up to learn from him — a lot were very young, naïve leftists.”

“They were scared. And Ben was offering them a solution for their fear.”

Senior Israeli Official Arrested In Vegas Pedophile Sting Is Released – And Flies Home

It looks like America’s “special relationship” with Israel may have paid off big for an alleged pedophile: A senior official in Israel’s cybersecurity agency was arrested in Las Vegas for allegedly attempting to use the internet to lure a child into sexual abuse, only to be released on bond and somehow allowed to go back to Israel. There’s no indication he was covered by diplomatic immunity. 

Tom Alexandrovich, who helps guide his country’s cybersecurity policy, was representing Israel at Black Hat USA, a professional conference in Las Vegas, when he was one of seven people swept up in a major, multi-agency sting operation earlier this month that targeted people seeking sex acts with minors. According to court records, on Aug 6, the 38-year-old Alexandrovich allegedly committed the felony offense of using computer technology in an attempt to lure a child into sexual abuse. That particular crime encompasses children under 16. The next day, he posted a $10,000 bond at the Henderson Detention Center. 

As the news broke, the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reflexively denied Alexandrovich had done anything wrong, claiming that “the employee, who does not hold a diplomatic visa, was not arrested and returned to Israel as scheduled.” Subsequently confronted with court records, Israel’s Cyber Directorate said the earlier false statement “was accurate based on the information provided to us,” and that Alexandrovich is now on leave “by mutual decision.” 

It’s not clear why or how he was allowed to return to Israel, which has a reputation as a haven for pedophiles who prey on American children. Citing a Jewish watchdog group, a 2020 CBS News report found that, in just the previous six years, more than 60 Jewish Americans who’d been accused of pedophilia had fled to Israel, taking advantage of Israel’s “Right of Return” law that lets any Jew in the world enjoy instant citizenship. Though these individuals — who include both suspects and convicts — are technically subject to extradition to the United States, Israeli police have been accused of assigning low priority to these cases and — perhaps because of that — US agencies are accused of failing to aggressively pursue extradition.

Democrats Don’t Get To Act Thoughtful About Solving The Crime Problem They Created

Democrats and the dying media know they have no leg to stand on when it comes to crime, but because they can never just sit still and be quiet, they’re acting like they have deep thoughts on law and order.

No, thanks! They don’t get to adopt positions like “defund the police,” throwing the country into a violent hell for nearly half a decade, and then have a say in how we pull ourselves out.

The New York Times, effectively the conscience of the Democrat establishment, wrote in a lengthy editorial Thursday on the “lessons” of recent years “that can help policymakers reduce crime even further and make progress against other societal ills.” Those lessons naturally come after the Times repeats the prerequisite talking point among Democrats that “crime is down,” but more importantly, the lessons are the obvious things that Democrats and the media shut down and shamed people for saying aloud for years.

“In 2020, policymakers played a direct role in accelerating [societal breakdown] by shuttering services that promote social cohesion,” the editorial said. “Consider school closures. Whether to keep schools closed after the initial months of the pandemic was a difficult decision. But officials at least should have put more weight on obvious costs of closures, including learning loss, social isolation and the possibility that closures contribute to crime.”

If you’re not already in a seething rage, holding back violent temptations, continue reading.

Sinaloa Cartel Operator Turned Influencer Gunned Down in Mexico

A former Sinaloa Cartel operator turned social media influencer died Saturday evening after a lone gunman barged into his home and shot him multiple times. The influencer’s murder is believed to be tied to the ongoing turf war between rival factions of the Sinaloa Cartel, which has spilled onto social media and already led to the murder of at least six influencers.

On Saturday evening, at least one gunman barged into the home of Camilo “Pollo Loco” Ochoa in the state of Morelos in Central Mexico. The gunman fired several shots, killing Ochoa instantly, El Sol de Sinaloa reported. By the time authorities responded to the scene, the gunman had fled. Investigators found Ochoa’s bullet-riddled body in his bathroom, wearing the same clothes he had worn earlier in the day during one of his livestreams.

Ochoa received various threats in the past. Earlier this year, Sinaloa Cartel gunmen had posted a photograph of Ochoa along with several other influencers who were supposed to be aligned with the Chapitos faction. At least six influencers on that list have already been killed. The murder comes at a time when the Chapitos faction has been at war for over a year with the Mayiza faction.
