ICE joins law enforcement in making numerous arrests related to child sexual exploitation

“Operation Home Alone 2” took place in Pinal County

PHOENIX, Ariz. – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Casa Grande, participated in a week long targeted operation related to child sexual exploitation netting multiple arrests.

Dubbed “Operation Home Alone 2,” it is the culmination of a months-long proactive operation to combat child sexual exploitation and child sex trafficking in Pinal County. The Arizona Department of Public Safety (AZDPS) detectives lead the joint effort comprised of local, state and federal agencies to include HSI, who targeted sexual predators who attempted to lure underage children with the intent of engaging in sexual activity.

“HSI, working alongside our law enforcement partners, is deeply committed to pursuing alleged predators lurking within our communities seeking to harm and exploit our most vulnerable population,” said Scott Brown, special agent in charge for HSI Phoenix. “This multi-agency effort epitomizes our ongoing mission in Arizona and is a testament to the men and woman who working these heinous cases.”

Law enforcement developed probable cause to charge five suspects during the multi-day operation. All suspects were booked into the Pinal County Jail.

On Sept. 3, law enforcement arrested Ryan Kellerman, 36, of Maricopa, on charges of aggravated luring of a minor for sexual exploitation and furnishing harmful items to a minor. Kellerman is also a suspect in a child pornography case with the Maricopa Police Department.

On Aug. 26, two arrests were made; Daniel May, 40, of Maricopa, and Matthew Salley, 38, also of Maricopa. Both defendants are charged for luring a minor for sexual exploitation.

The following day, law enforcement arrested Jordan Holloway, 26, of Maricopa, for luring a minor for sexual exploitation.

On Sept. 2, Christopher Butts, 44, of Phoenix, was arrested for aggravated luring of a minor for sexual exploitation and furnishing harmful items to a minor. Butts, a former Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office detective, was out on bond for his arrest in February for the same charges.

Lastly, on Sept. 3, Ryan Kellerman, 36, of Maricopa, was arrested on charges of aggravated luring of a minor for sexual exploitation and furnishing harmful items to a minor. Kellerman is also a suspect in a child pornography case with the Maricopa Police Department.

Operation Home Alone 2 is a joint operation involving:

Arizona Department of Public Safety, Pinal Criminal Targeting Unit

Casa Grande Police Department, Criminal Investigations

Homeland Security Investigations, Casa Grande

Maricopa Police Department, Criminal Investigations

Pinal County Attorney’s Office

This is an ongoing investigation and additional arrests are pending. The defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

County library employee arrested for child exploitation production

JACKSONVILLE, Florida – A Putnam County man was arrested and charged with production and possession of child exploitation material last week. This case was investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the Clay County Sheriff’s Office.

Kurt Batucan Sheldon, 29, of Interlachen, faces a minimum mandatory penalty of 15 years, and up to 50 years, in federal prison.

Any person who was, or knows of someone who may have been, a possible child victim is urged to contact HSI at 1-866-DHS-2ICE or online tip form.

“Unfortunately, this case highlights the extreme dangers for children and social media applications,” said HSI Jacksonville Assistant Special Agent in Charge K. Jim Phillips. “Because of alert parents, and outstanding teamwork with Clay and Putnam Counties Sherriff’s Offices, this predator is no longer able to sexually exploit children.”

According to the complaint, parents of a minor child made a report to the Clay County Sheriff’s Office about sexually explicit messages being sent by an adult to their daughter on Snapchat and Whisper. The adult referred to himself as “K t.” “K t” was his screen name on Snapchat, but his Snapchat username was “tacticfallout.” “K t” originally began communicating with the child on Whisper and represented himself as a male, between the ages of 25-29. The child told him that she was 15 years old. “K t” told the child that his name was “Kurt” and that he lived in Putnam. The child told “Kurt” she lived with her parents and was in school. Their conversation later moved to Snapchat and “K t” requested child exploitation material—images and videos—from the child and directed the child on how to take the images and how to pose. Approximately 50 images and/or videos were sent to “K t” at his direction. Further investigation by HSI and the Clay County Sheriff’s Office identified Sheldon’s residence as the source of the IP address used by the Snapchat account “tacticfallout,” and the Gmail account associated with this Snapchat account.

On September 4, 2020, HSI special agents and deputies and detectives with the Clay and Putnam County Sheriff’s Office executed a search warrant at Sheldon’s residence. Sheldon admitted there was child sexual abuse material on the computer. He also admitted to asking girls he met on online applications, whom he knew to be underage, to send him nude photographs, including a 15-year-old female.

It will be prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Ashley Washington and Kelly Karase, with the office of Middle District Florida United States Attorney Maria Chapa Lopez.

George Floyd Swallowed Drugs During May 2019 Arrest: Court Filing

George Floyd swallowed drugs during a prior arrest on May 6, 2019 according to a new court filing that has been completely ignored by the media for two weeks.

Here's the full document from MNCourts.gov (see 1 and 2):

TEXT:

NOTICE OF MOTIONS

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE the Defendant, Derek Michael Chauvin, may offer at trial evidence and circumstance of the following:

1. The facts and circumstances of MP 2019-127538 from May 6, 2019. At that time Mr. George Floyd was engaged in the sale and possession of large quantities of controlled substances. When approached by police he placed drugs in his mouth in an attempt to avoid arrest, and swallowed them. When interacting with police he engaged in diversionary behavior such as crying and acted irrationally. An ambulance was called to transport Mr. Floyd to the hospital.

2. The facts and circumstances of Mr. Floyd's May 6, 2019 medical intervention at Hennepin County Medical Center for "accidental drug ingestion." At which time Mr. Floyd disclosed that he "snorts oxycodone daily" , was hypertensive and not taking medications, took street drugs prior to admission (PTA) and while under arrest was tearful – because he was accused of selling drugs by the police and has been abusing opiates for the last year and a half.

3. The facts and circumstance of Harris County Texas case number 1143230 from August 9, 2007. At that time Mr. George Floyd, under the pretenses of being with the water department and thoughtfully disguised by wearing a blue uniform, forcibly entered a home to steal drugs and money. In the course of the robbery Mr. Floyd placed a gun on a woman's abdomen, allowed her to be pistol whipped by an accomplice and demanded drugs and money. For these brazen acts Mr. Floyd was convicted of Aggravated Robbery with a Deadly Weapon.

The filing was made on August 28th, yet not one single story has been written about it from the local or national media.

There has been widespread speculation for months that Floyd died from ingesting drugs.

Last month, documents revealed Hennepin County Medical Examiner Dr. Andrew Baker determined Floyd had a "fatal level of fentanyl" in his system on top of low levels of meth.

"This level of fentanyl can cause pulmonary edema," Baker determined. "Mr. Floyd's lungs were 2-3x their normal weight at autopsy. That is a fatal level of fentanyl under normal circumstances."

"[Baker] said that if Mr. Floyd had been found dead in his home (or anywhere else) and there were no other contributing factors he would conclude that it was an overdose death."

Consumers Beware: Essential Products May Cost 14% More On Amazon, Report Finds

Amazon (AMZN) has come under fire for price gouging of high-demand products during the coronavirus pandemic, according to a new report from the U.S. PIRG Education Fund.

The report indicated that some products are being sold on Amazon for 14% more than its retail competitors. The report looked at the price of essential household items, comparing their prices across multiple retail platforms, including Walmart and Target’s e-commerce sites.

PIRG found that items such as Clorox disinfectant wipes, which have virtually disappeared from store shelves due to increased demand during the pandemic, were selling for $37.95 on Amazon while Target carried the item for $5.14.

The list continues as PIRG found that a 12-pack of Bounty paper towels cost an exorbitant $58.80 on the e-commerce giant’s site and were selling at Walmart for only $9.98. Other essential products, such as four-packs of Kleenex, were selling for $22.99 on Amazon and $7.32 at Target. Even hand sanitizer was seeing a markup with an 8-ounce bottle of Germ-X selling for $13.72 on Amazon and only $1.99 at Walmart.

Bleach was another high demand item during the pandemic, currently selling for $22.22 a bottle on Amazon and only $6.58 at Home Depot. Looking for hand soap? Consumers will pay more on Amazon with Meyer’s Clean Day hand soap selling for $20.89 a bottle, up from the $3.88 price at Walmart and $3.99 price at Target.

This is the second time this year that PIRG has looked into the selling practices on Amazon. Back in late February, the firm also conducted a study on price gouging on the retailer’s website, finding at the time that items such as face masks and hand sanitizer were marked up at least 50% during the height of the pandemic.

In April, Amazon responded to PIRG, telling the firm that “There is no place for price gouging on Amazon, and we will not tolerate attempts to artificially raise prices on basic-need products during a global health crisis. It is unconscionable… Our long-standing Marketplace Fair Pricing Policy strictly prohibits excessive prices on products and shipping. We proactively monitor our stores for unfair prices, and we aggressively enforce this policy to protect our customers.”

Remembering 9-11: Traitorous US Elite Complicit in False Flag

As we acknowledge the 19th anniversary of 9-11, the perpetrators have not been brought to justice. As a result, we were subjected to new false flags every month, especially under Obama.

A German Intelligence Service (BND) report laid the blame for 9-11 on Israel's Mossad who has used false flags since its inception.

Governments have always invented threats in order to pursue aggression and make their people sacrifice their lives, wealth, and freedom.

If you believe Israel and the West are under attack by Islamic extremism, you have been duped. There is growing evidence that Israel was involved in the 9-11 attack.

The German Intelligence Service (BND) says Israel's Mossad helped the "Arab terrorists." Germany has not denied that this report is authentic and no one has refuted it. Go to http://www.physics911.net/ under "Intel warmings"

https://www.henrymakow.com/001685.html

The Rothschild's emblem is on the Israeli flag. Their image is on the currency. They financed the Knesset building, just like their henchmen the Rockefellers donated the land for the UN.

The hardest part for Jews to admit is that the Rothschilds financed Hitler through intermediaries, partly to motivate Jews to start a "Jewish" state.

The reason that Israel enjoys a blank cheque with the US Treasury is that the Rothschilds control the credit of the US and Europe and every country except Iran and North Korea.

The whole point of the world government dictatorship (i.e. globalization) is to translate this control of credit into total political, cultural and social control using mass media and "education.".

Weather Underground Terrorist Bill Ayers Suggests the Civil War Has Already Begun

As violent and destructive antifa and Black Lives Matter riots continue to ravage American cities like Portland and Kenosha, a self-described communist who plotted to blow up the U.S. Capitol in the 1970s suggested that America’s second Civil War has already started.

“Am I the only one, or do you feel eerily that we’re living in Kansas, 1859, and that tensions are boiling over, but only years later will people say, ‘Yes, the Civil War began there and then?'” Ayers posted on Facebook. He posted the same statement on his website, BillAyers.org.

Ayers, who co-founded the Weather Underground in 1969, took part in the bombings of the New York City Police Department headquarters in 1970, the U.S. Capitol building in 1971, and the Pentagon in 1972. Since the FBI used illegal tactics against the Weather Underground and the New Left, the government dropped key charges against the Weather Underground and Bill Ayers.

After his radical career, he settled into academia, where he taught at the University of Illinois. When he retired in 2010, the university denied him emeritus status. The university’s board chair, Christopher G. Kennedy (son of assassinated Senator Robert F. Kennedy), condemned Ayers for dedicating a book “to the man who murdered my father.” Kennedy referred to a 1974 book Prairie Fire: The Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism, which Ayers wrote with other Weather Underground members and which the authors dedicated to manny revolutionaries, including the man who assassinated Robert F. Kennedy. Ayers denied dedicating a book to the assassin and suggested that right-wing bloggers started a rumor to that effect.

As for Ayers’ “eerie” feeling, he was referring to Bleeding Kansas, a lesser-known precursor to the American Civil War.

In the decade leading up to the Civil War, Southern Democrats fought to extend slavery north and west. The Founders had forged a grand bargain to allow the evil institution of slavery while restricting its spread. In 1820, Congress drew a line, saying that any state north of the line would enter the Union as free while states that entered below the line could have slavery. Yet Southerners started defending slavery as a positive good and arguing for “popular sovereignty,” the notion that white landowners in states north of the 1820 line would vote on whether the state would be slave or free. Abraham Lincoln grew to prominence by opposing this notion.

No Exit: VMWare Joins Growing Group Of Tech Cos Threatening To Cut Employees Wages For Leaving San Francisco

In an age where gestures of corporate sympathy are paramount, VMware has joined a small, but growing, contingent of Bay Area tech firms on one of the COVID-19 era's hottest new bandwagons: cutting pay for workers who continue to "WFH", due to having relocated, or for some other reason.

According to reports, VMware employees who take up the company’s offer to become permanent remote workers will get a pay cut if they move away from Silicon Valley, one of the nation’s most costly areas to live, to another, less-expensive city.

VMWare is hardly the most high profile company to do this: Facebook and Twitter are also allowing some office staff to choose whether they want to permanently work from home in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.

However, employees who worked at VMware’s Palo Alto, headquarters, but then decide to go to Denver, for example, must accept an 18% salary reduction.

Leaving Silicon Valley for Los Angeles or San Diego means relinquishing 8% of their annual pay, said the people, who asked not to be identified.

Facebook and Twitter are among the other technology companies that have put in place or are considering similar pay policies. A Twitter spokesman said the company has a "competitive" approach to localizing compensation while Facebook has publicly said it may cut employees’ salaries depending on where they choose to move.

Harvard prof uses 9/11 to blame Trump for COVID deaths

A Harvard professor said President Donald Trump is "directly responsible" for the coronavirus death toll.

The comment came on the eve of the 19th anniversary of 9/11.

Harvard Law professor emeritus Laurence Tribe used the 19th anniversary of the September 11 attacks to say that President Donald Trump is "directly responsible" for the coronavirus death toll, which stands at more than 180,000 Americans.

“Tomorrow — 9/11/20 — is the 19th anniversary of the worst day in memory, a day on which 3,000 innocent Americans died needlessly,” Tribe tweeted Thursday night from his personal Twitter account, which is linked on his official university bio. “But Donald J. Trump is directly responsible for at least FORTY TIMES that many avoidable deaths from Covid-19.”

"Donald J. Trump is directly responsible for at least FORTY TIMES that many avoidable deaths from Covid-19."

“It’s the biggest crime of our lives,” he said.

[RELATED: Cuomo's college closures? NY governor throws a wrench in campus COVID plans]

In a statement to Campus Reform on Friday, Tribe said, "The tweet to which you refer says he is 'directly responsible for at least forty times that many avoidable deaths from Covid-19.' That’s 40 x 3,000 = 120,000 out of the documented American Covid-19 death toll of at least 192,000. I based that claim on the many studies showing that, had the United States response been led responsibly from the time the president was privately acknowledging the danger we faced, with rapid invocation of the Defense Production Act and the kind of steps taken by comparable nations under the circumstances, including rapid deployment of testing and tracing and strong pressure to socially distance and wear masks (rather than messages discouraging both and downplaying the danger of this virus), our death toll would have been at least 35% lower than it has been."

"Because 35% of 192,000 is 67,200, responsible action by President Trump and his administration would have reduced the number of fatalities by at least 124,800. So my figure of 120,000 was a very conservative estimate of how many Americans died needlessly as a direct result of how President Trump chose to mislead the public and opted not to take the steps needed to contain the spread of the virus, demonstrably for the purpose of not spooking the stock market and thus, indirectly, not reducing what he saw as his chances of reelection," Tribe explained.

The comment came just days after audio surfaced of Trump saying in an interview with journalist Bob Woodward of the coronavirus pandemic, "I wanted to always play it down. I still like playing it down, because I don’t want to create a panic." Trump has since defended that decision, saying, "I love our country. And I don’t want people to be frightened. We have to have leadership. We have to show leadership."

In January, Campus Reform reported that Tribe called the American strike ordered by Trump against Iranian General Qassem Soleimani a “murder.”

“In the fog of war, it’s easy to lose track of what counts,” said Tribe. “Whether Soleimani posed an 'imminent' threat that killing him would assuredly end isn’t just a debate over labels. It’s the difference btw [between] self-defense to protect Americans and murder to stave off Trump’s impeachment.”

Tribe said that the situation was "increasingly looking like summary execution without trial" by the United States.

In 2019, Campus Reform also reported that Tribe compared Trump’s July 4 Salute to America celebration to Tiananmen Square.

You shouldn't have done that Ted

Charges increased five-fold, bail denied following analysis of accused paedophile Jadd William Brooker's electronic devices

South Australian police have identified child abuse victims in Adelaide, New South Wales and Italy after analysing electronic devices seized from an accused paedophile, a court has heard.

Key points:

Jadd William Brooker is charged with 44 child sex offences

Three victims were identified following examination of Brooker's electronic devices

The accused paedophile was earlier given home detention bail, which was overturned on appeal

Jadd William Brooker, 38, was earlier granted home detention bail by Magistrate Rodney Oates but the Director of Public Prosecutions appealed that decision to the Supreme Court.

Justice Sam Doyle refused to release him on Friday.

He said the alleged offending was "extremely serious", with one investigating officer describing it as the "worst and most degrading witnessed in 14 years of investigation".

Prosecutor Lucy Boord told the court that on Friday police increased his charges from eight to 44 child sex offences after investigators started to analyse his phone, laptop and a hard drive after seizing them on August 26.

"We are in the very early stages of the investigation in this matter and each day sees police uncover further information," she said.

"E-crime have identified 4.5 million items of interest across those three devices … at least 10,000 are probable child pornography."

She said only 30 per cent of one messaging app and part of another had been analysed and so far police had identified three child abuse victims.

The court heard one was a 15-year-old boy from New South Wales and another was a boy from Adelaide, who has since died.

Ms Boord told the court that the third identified child was a 16-year-old boy from Italy and that there were up to nine further potential unidentified victims.

"Those discoveries of those three known children have been made whilst there has been, what I'll call, a cursory search of two of the accused's messaging apps, which is Skype and Telegram," she said.

She told the court that police still had to analyse 50,000 messages across nine messaging apps, including iMessage, Kik, WhatsApp and Instagram.
