I had a habit of posting up the F*%ked news from my local area, and from a couple other places that always had a consistent amount of whacked out news. So…….I’m gonna do it here too. I’ll start with a few older posts, just to catch myself up, as there has been some stupid people in the news here in this area lately. So, let the game begin.
TAMPA – A man accused today of strangling his roommate during an argument over cigarettes was arrested last month after another argument between them turned violent, police said.
Tampa police charged Billy Locke Jr., 30, with felony second-degree murder in the death of Rick Lamar Ming, 43, earlier today. Locke was held without bail at the Orient Road Jail.
Public records show police arrested Locke last month on a felony charge of domestic battery by strangulation for another dispute involving Ming. The resolution of that case was pending.
Police responded to the apartment the men shared at 3712 W. Cass St. about 5:50 a.m. today after one of the men called 911. The two had been arguing because one wanted the other to leave, police said.
Because both men were on the Eden Apartments lease, and there were no signs of physical injuries, no one was arrested, police said.
About 8 a.m., Locke called 911 to report that he thought his roommate was dead, police said. He told officers he had put Ming into a choke hold during an argument over cigarettes, according to police.
Police charged Locke on Nov. 13 with felony domestic battery by strangulation after Ming said Locke choked him during an argument over money, a report states.
Teens Arrested Trying To Steal Undercover Cop Car
Three teenagers shined a flashlight into a blue Dodge Stratus on Monday night and prepared to steal the vehicle.
Unfortunately for them, two Tampa police officers had been hiding inside the unmarked car. The officers jumped out as the juveniles were about to smash out the vehicle’s right rear passenger window, police say.
The incident initially began about 11 p.m. when Tampa police’s street anti-crime squad saw the juveniles looking into parked cars near Columbus Drive and Oakdale Avenue. Officers Colin McCoy and Gary Saunders were in the Dodge Stratus and followed the juveniles to the area near Columbus and Rome Avenue.
The officers parked in a parking lot of Columbus Court Apartments and continued to watch the teeenagers.
The suspects had flat tip screw drivers, a piece of concrete rock and a flashlight as they came to the Dodge, police said. After trying to smash out a window, the officers jumped out. The juveniles ran, and two were caught after a chase.
“The suspects admitted that they were unaware that the officers were inside of the car or that the Dodge Stratus was a police vehicle,” a Tampa police news release states. “The third suspect was not apprehended, but detectives are working on leads. There was no damage to the unmarked police vehicle.”
The suspects arrested are 17- and 15-year-old Tampa residents. The teens were charged with auto burglary, possession of burglary tools and resisting arrest without violence.

Strip Club Patron Used Counterfeit Money
PALMETTO – Even though he had $2,300 cash on him, a Palmetto man tried to use funny money to pay for services at a strip club, and his scheme backfired, deputies say.
Deputies were called to Pandora’s Box on U.S. 41 North in Palmetto on Saturday night by an employee who said a customer had passed seven phony $20 bills and that the man was still drinking in the club.
A deputy approached Anthony Lamar King, 44, of the 2600 block of Sixth Avenue East, and asked him to come outside and talk.
King complied, and he was asked about the counterfeit bills, which a deputy noted were not the right type of paper and did not have the security strip present in legitimate currency.
During questioning, King tried to walk away and resisted arrest, so he was stunned with an electric shock weapon, tackled and eventually handcuffed.
Deputies determined King’s car was in the parking lot, and his girlfriend gave permission to search it. Inside, deputies found baggies of marijuana, packages of powder and rock cocaine, and blue prescription pills, according to the arrest report. They also found 18 more fake bills, the report states.
King was arrested on felony charges of possessing and using forged bills and possession of cocaine and marijuana with intent to deliver.
Hmm, actually sounds fair to me for some odd reason… Fake cash for fake boobs LOL
BAHAHAHA thats awesome… My neighbor came home pissed off one night cuz she went to go buy an outfit for work (she was a stripper) and some one gave her and her friend a fake $20 bill. Now they bring conterfeit markers with them so when they go in the dressing room they can check em all and alert if someone is handing out fakes. Crazy shite bro!!
LOL, I’d keep a counterfeit marker too, I want REAL money
Supermarket Defends Refusal To Make Hitler Cake
A supermarket is defending itself for refusing to a write out 3-year-old Adolf Hitler Campbell’s name on his birthday cake.
Deborah Campbell, 25, of nearby Hunterdon County, N.J., said she phoned in her order last week to the Greenwich ShopRite. When she told the bakery department she wanted her son’s name spelled out, she was told to talk to a supervisor, who denied the request.
Karen Meleta, a ShopRite spokeswoman, said the store denied similar requests from the Campbells the past two years, including a request for a swastika.
“We reserve the right not to print anything on the cake that we deem to be inappropriate,” Meleta said. “We considered this inappropriate.”
The Campbells ultimately got their cake decorated at a Wal-Mart in Pennsylvania, Deborah Campbell said Tuesday.
A Wal-Mart spokesman told The Associated Press today that in light of the incident, the company would review its guidelines regarding cake decorations and other requests.
“It’s clear that in serving this customer, some people were offended,” spokesman Greg Rossiter said. “As a result, we’re going to review our policies.”
Heath Campbell said he named his son after Adolf Hitler because he liked the name and because “no one else in the world would have that name.”
The Campbells’ two other children are named JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell, who turns 2 in a few months, and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell, who will be 1 in April.
Campbell said he was raised not to avoid people of other races but not to mix with them socially or romantically. But he said he would try to raise his children differently.
“Say he grows up and hangs out with black people. That’s fine, I don’t really care,” he said. “That’s his choice.”
He said about 12 people attended the birthday party Sunday, including several children of mixed race.
These hicks HAVE to be from Florida……

Investigators: 1 Woman Pokes Another, Gets Stabbed
TAMPA – A visitor stabbed by another woman during a dispute Thursday had poked her attacker in the forehead moments before being slashed in the chest, an affidavit states.
The injured woman, Tammy Williams, 31, is being treated at Tampa General Hospital, the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office said. Her condition was not available today.
Marlene Davenport, 46, of 2042 E. Bearss Ave., was held at the Orient Road Jail today on $15,000 bail, jail records show. She is charged with felony aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
According to an affidavit, the women argued over the phone before Williams went to Davenport’s apartment about 5:30 p.m. Thursday “to confront the allegations.” The document does not elaborate on the cause of argument.
While awaiting Williams’ arrival, Davenport armed herself with a large knife, concealed behind her back, and stood on the porch, the affidavit states. She approached Williams after Williams exited her car and continued the argument from the sidewalk.
After Williams poked Davenport in the forehead, Davenport slashed Williams across the chest, the affidavit states.
Williams retreated to her vehicle, with Davenport in pursuit, the affidavit states.
Per A fairly new Florida statute, the “aggressor” of this crime is likely constitutionally protected from arrest in this case. Excessive force – PROBABLY – However, the victim in this case was in fact the aggressor, by driving across town to create a confrontation.
Friendly neighbor 🙂
Scott Laughlin pulled a firearm on Wilmer Orengo on Sunday evening because Orengo’s dog defecated on his yard, Hillsborough County deputies say.
Deputies arrested Laughlin, 57, of Riverview, on Sunday. He was charged with aggravated assault with a firearm.
The incident began Sunday when Laughlin was sitting outside his home with a friend, sheriff’s spokeswoman Debbie Carter said. Orengo was walking a dog, which defecated on Laughlin’s yard, causing Laughlin to become angry, Carter said.
Carter didn’t know which type of dog it was, and she didn’t know the dog’s name.
Orengo later identified the firearm to authorities, according to a criminal arrest affidavit.
Laughlin’s bail was set at $2,000. He has since been released from jail.
I hope it was a big turd…
