Officer Jones and Sgt. Arneson arrived and observed two security guards physically engaged with two female suspects. The females had a 9-year-old child with them and they were screaming obscenities at the security guards. Officers were told the women had just assaulted several people. Sgt. Arneson ordered the suspects to stop. Instead of complying they paced angrily back and forth, screaming obscenities and filming everyone with a cell phone. Eventually they complied and officers placed them in cuffs. Officers spoke with victims and witnesses and determined the suspect’s had assaulted a store employee and the security guards. When told they were under arrest one of the suspects stated she was having trouble breathing and requested medics. Allina medics examined her and determined she showed no signs of distress. Officers contacted the father of the 9-year-old to take custody of her. One adult female from Minneapolis and one adult female from Robbinsdale were arrested for 5 th Degree Assault and Disorderly Conduct. Accident Hit & Run Date: 03-02-2016 Time: 1331 Location: 2100 Block of Rice Street CN: 16006051 Officer Craven was dispatched on a report of a vehicle striking a house and then fleeing the area. He arrived and spoke with the homeowner who stated his neighbor called him to alert him of the crash, he called 911 and drove home to find significant damage to the corner of his house. Officer Craven spoke with the witness who stated she was inside when she heard a loud crash, she looked out the window and saw a red minivan crashed into the neighbor’s house and then drive away. She was able to provide a suspect description but not a license plate number. Officer Craven located various broken plastic auto parts, some with part numbers. He collected evidence and took photographs of the scene. Officers checked the area for the suspect without success. Officer Craven checked a few local businesses to see if they had video footage that might help. He ultimately worked with the Cub Foods on Rice Street who was able to identify the suspect entering their business and leaving in the suspect vehicle just before the accident occurred. They were also able to look back at the purchase records and determine his name. Officer Craven was also able to match the part numbers from the recovered pieces to that of a mid 2000s Chevy Uplander minivan. On 3/9/16, Officer Craven traveled to the suspect’s address where he observed the suspect vehicle with heavy damage inside the open garage. The suspect immediately admitted he was waiting for the police to show up. He stated he was at Cub Foods and driving north on Rice when “everything went fuzzy”. He stated he was not intoxicated but thought he passed out. The next thing he remembers is driving home and laying down. He went to the doctor the next day and was admitted to the hospital for a couple days. He said he made no attempt to report the accident or attempt to figure out who or what he may have hit once he realized he had been in a crash. One adult male from Little Canada was issued a citation for Leaving the Scene of a Crash. Warrant Arrest Date: 03-11-2016 Time: 0526 Location: Motel 6; 2300 Cleveland Avenue CN: 16006951 Officers had confirmed the guest in room 208 had a Felony Warrant out of Ramsey County. Officers had attempted to make contact via phone but the suspect hung up on them and refused to open the door. The suspect had an extensive history of weapons related offenses. Officer Nelson observed the suspect open the door and peer out, however, when he saw officers he quickly shut the door. Officers forced entry into the room and found the suspect locked in the bathroom. Officers knocked loudly and ordered the suspect to exit the bathroom. Officer Nelson began pushing the door open and he could feel the Page 1 Roseville Police Department – Monthly Summary suspect pushing the door back towards him. Officers were eventually able to enter the bathroom at which point they observed the suspect on the floor. Officers were able to take custody of the suspect without further incident. One officer sustained a minor injury during this incident. One adult male from St. Paul was arrested for Failure to Obey Lawful Order, Obstructing Legal Process and an outstanding Felony Warrant. Suicide in Progress Date: 03-13-2016 Time: 0128 Location: Hwy 36 and Victoria Street CN: 16007132 Officers were dispatched to a juvenile on the bridge near the railing. Officers Eckert and Wiesner arrived and located a juvenile female standing outside the railing leaving no barrier between her and the highway below. Officer Eckert attempted to engage her in conversation. The female looked at him and then back at the traffic below. Officers began coordinating and shutting down the traffic in both directions of the highway. Officer Christensen arrived on scene and took over verbal communication with the female. Officer Christensen was able to build a relationship with her after over an hour of talking. He was eventually able to get her to climb onto the safe side of the railing where he continued to speak with her. Sergeant Adams was in a position to move freely behind the victim without her seeing him as she was speaking with Officer Christensen. He moved slowly closer to her until he was able to grab her and move her away from the railing. The female refused to identify herself but Officer Christensen was ultimately able to locate her mother’s phone number and make contact with her. One juvenile female from Roseville was transported to the hospital. Narcotics Date: 03-21-2016 Time: 0505 Location: 2800 block of Long Lake Road CN: 16007966 A female victim called police to report a suspect male threw her out of his vehicle and threatened to kill her and was now driving past her repeatedly. She gave Dispatch the suspect’s name, description of his vehicle and told them it had a flat tire. Officer Jones arrive and observed the suspect vehicle in a nearby parking lot with a flat tire. As squads approached it turned to exit the lot. Officers gave the driver commands to exit the vehicle to which he complied and was taken into custody. The suspect appeared to be under the influence of narcotics as he constantly jerked and moved his body around and was twitching. His speech was fast and repetitive. Officers confirmed the suspect had an outstanding warrant for OFP Violation. Officer Cox spoke to the victim who reported they had been hanging out in St. Paul when they decided to go somewhere else so as to not get into trouble for loitering. She said she was driving when she hit a pothole and they got a flat tire. At this time the suspect became angry and took over driving. She said she observed the suspect steal a new tire/rim for the car and a jack so they could change it. She said she told him she would rather have someone else fix it and that was when he got angrier and shoved her out of the car and threatened to kill her. While officers searched the vehicle they observed multiple signs of narcotics use throughout the vehicle. Officer Lopez removed a towel and a blanket from the backseat and found a clear plastic Tupperware covered in saran wrap with what appeared to be cups inside. As he moved the container an unknown liquid spilled and produced a very strong chemical odor. Sergeant Arneson believed what they found to be a “rolling meth lab” and ordered everyone to stop searching the vehicle. He requested assistance from the appropriate agencies to assist with the chemicals. He evaluated Officer Lopez to make sure he was not in direct contact with any of the chemicals. The vehicle was determined to be a rental car. Officers established the possible meth lab belonged to the female. One adult female from Bloomington was arrested 5th Degree Violation of Controlled Substance Law. One adult male from St. Paul was arrested for Terroristic Threats.

    2013 Tippecanoe County Prosecutor’s Office in the News December 31, 2013: Lafayette Journal and Courier Illinois man faces a dozen charges in credit card theft Written by Justin L. Mack A dozen felony charges were filed Tuesday against an Illinois man accused of using the personal information of two Lafayette women to obtain credit cards. Kemo D. Whirl, 39, of Wheaton, Ill., was charged in Tippecanoe Superior Court with three counts of forgery, three counts of theft, three counts of fraud, two counts of identify deception and one count of attempted theft. According to court documents, the investigation against Whirl began in June when a woman who worked for Riggs Community Health Center told police that several attempts had been made to open credit cards in her name. She also reported that in July, a U.S. Bank credit card had been issued in her name and sent to an address in Lafayette. The card was later used to make purchases at Home Depot and Target. Surveillance footage from both stores showed the card being used by a black male wearing a baseball cap. Further investigation revealed that the credit card was sent to the home of another Riggs official who held an administrative position and had access to the personal information of other employees. When questioned, the administrator denied all knowledge about the illegally obtained credit card. When shown surveillance footage, the administrator was reportedly able to identify Whirl as the man who used the credit card at Home Depot and Target. She added that he was a friend who stayed with her from time to time.

  • In the Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana
    In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana No. 06-14-00103-CR JOHNNY RAY MULDROW, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 6th District Court Lamar County, Texas Trial Court No. 25549 Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Carter,* JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley ______________ *Jack Carter, Justice, Retired, Sitting by Assignment MEMORANDUM OPINION After a routine traffic stop led to the discovery of “a rolling meth lab,” driver Johnny Ray Muldrow was convicted by a jury of possession of 200 grams or more but less than 400 grams of methamphetamine. After he had been convicted by a jury, Muldrow pled “true” to two enhancement allegations, elected to have the trial court assess punishment, and was sentenced to fifty years’ imprisonment. On appeal, Muldrow argues (1) that the statutes under which he was convicted—Sections 481.115(e) and 481.002(49) of the Texas Health and Safety Code—are facially unconstitutional and (2) that the evidence is legally insufficient to support the jury’s finding of guilt. We find that Muldrow failed to preserve his complaint that Sections 481.115(e) and 481.002(49) are void for vagueness and inadequately briefed the remaining grounds arguing that these sections are unconstitutional. We further find that the evidence was legally sufficient to support the jury’s verdict. Consequently, we affirm the trial court’s judgment. I. The Constitutional Complaints are Either Unpreserved or Inadequately Briefed Section 481.115(e) of the Texas Health and Safety Code makes possession of a Penalty Group 1 controlled substance a first degree felony “if the amount of the controlled substance possessed is, by aggregate weight, including adulterants or dilutants, 200 grams or more but less than 400 grams.” TEX.

  • 2010 Tippecanoe County Prosecutor's Office in the News
    2010 Tippecanoe County Prosecutor’s Office in the News December 30 , 2010: Lafayette Journal and Courier Local teen gets 14 years for robbery, beating By SOPHIA VORAVONG; [email protected] A Lafayette teenager was sentenced Wednesday to 14 years in prison for his involvement in a robbery and bloody attack at a north end home that hospitalized the victim. Johnny L. Ellison, 18, pleaded guilty earlier this month in Tippecanoe Superior Court 1 to an amended count of robbery resulting in serious bodily injury, a Class B felony. He had been charged with robbery as a Class A felony, which carries a heftier penalty of 20 to 50 years incarceration. The charges stem from an investigation on April 2, at a home on North 14th Street in Lafayette. There, officers found Wendell Washburn, 58, with extensive facial injuries. Blood was found smeared on the walls and in several parts of the home. Wendell told officers he had been jumped by two males named "Johnny" and "Cody." Ellison admitted in court to kicking and pushing Washburn so that he could steal Washburn's money. According to court documents, Washburn was admitted to intensive care and had bleeding on his brain. He was later released from St. Elizabeth East hospital. Judge Randy Williams on Wednesday also ordered Ellison to serve two years on probation after his release and pay $384 in restitution for Washburn's medical costs. Ellison's co-defendant, 20-year-old Cody Bryant of Lafayette, pleaded guilty Tuesday to the same Class B felony. He will be sentenced Feb.

  • IN the COURT of CRIMINAL APPEALS of TENNESSEE at NASHVILLE Assigned on Briefs December 13, 2016
    02/06/2017 IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS OF TENNESSEE AT NASHVILLE Assigned on Briefs December 13, 2016 STATE OF TENNESSEE v. RICHARD W. WILBURN Appeal from the Circuit Court for Rutherford County Nos. F-74351, M-73937, M-73940 & M-73973 David M. Bragg, Judge No. M2016-00704-CCA-R3-CD The Defendant, Richard W. Wilburn, was sentenced to an effective ten-year sentence for his guilty-pleaded convictions to one count of initiating the methamphetamine manufacturing process and three counts of driving on a revoked license, second offense or more. On appeal, the Defendant contends that the trial court erred by applying enhancement factor 10—the Defendant had no hesitation about committing a crime when the risk to human life was high—to increase his sentence for initiating the manufacturing methamphetamine process because, he asserts, there was no proof that anyone was endangered by his actions. He also submits that the trial court erred by denying any form of alternative sentencing based upon his need for drug treatment. Following our review, we find no abuse of discretion in the trial court’s sentencing decision. Accordingly, the judgments are affirmed. Tenn. R. App. P. 3 Appeal as of Right; Judgments of the Circuit Court Affirmed D. KELLY THOMAS, JR., J., delivered the opinion of the court, in which CAMILLE R. MCMULLEN and J. ROSS DYER, JJ., joined.

    A DEAD RED HEART By RP Dahlke 2nd in the Dead Red Mystery Series When a homeless Vet litters her beloved red Cadillac with poetry scrawled on paper snowflakes, Lalla decides to confront him. But that doesn't mean she wants the man to drop dead at her feet—with a pair of blue handled scissors sticking out of his chest. With nothing but the man's last words for the police to go on, Lalla decides that someone needs to be on the side of this misunderstood vet, and that person will be the exasperating, pushy, tenacious, Ms. Lalla Bains. But digging into the man's past will only unravel a more potent question: What would you do if the love of your life lost their chance for a heart transplant because the donor organ went to a convicted felon?

  • United States Court of Appeals for the EIGHTH CIRCUIT ______
    United States Court of Appeals FOR THE EIGHTH CIRCUIT ___________ No. 04-1639 ___________ United States of America, * * Plaintiff-Appellee, * * Appeal from the United States v. * District Court for the Southern * District of Iowa. Todd Eric Hagan, * * Defendant-Appellant. * * ___________ Submitted: November 15, 2004 Filed: July 7, 2005 ___________ Before SMITH, LAY, and BENTON, Circuit Judges. ___________ BENTON, Circuit Judge. Todd Eric Hagan was convicted of one count of attempting to manufacture a controlled substance in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 841(b)(1)(B), and 846, and one count of creating a substantial harm while manufacturing methamphetamine in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 858. The district court1 sentenced him to 292 months and 120 months imprisonment, respectively, to run concurrently. Jurisdiction being proper under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, this court affirms. 1 The Honorable James E. Gritzner, United States District Judge for the Southern District of Iowa. Appellate Case: 04-1639 Page: 1 Date Filed: 07/07/2005 Entry ID: 1924860 I. Hagan argues that the district court's Allen charge impermissibly coerced a guilty verdict. A challenged jury instruction is reviewed for abuse of discretion. United States v. Walrath, 324 F.3d 966, 970 (8th Cir. 2003). An Allen charge, a supplemental jury instruction, advises deadlocked jurors to reconsider their positions. Id. Supplemental jury instructions are permissible, so long as they are not coercive. United States v. Washington, 255 F.3d 483, 485 (8th Cir. 2001). "Jury coercion is determined by (1) the content of the instruction, (2) the length of the deliberation after the instruction, (3) the total length of deliberations, and (4) any indicia in the record of coercion." Walrath, 324 F.3d at 970.
