The Similarities Between Fortune 500 CEO's And Bosses Of Criminal Enterprises (3/20/25)

The Kinahan cartel continues to fracture from within if reports are to be believed. With the distrust even reaching the upper echelons of the syndicate, it would seem that trust is at a premium. Now, to make matters worse there are reports that a mole for the authorities is working from the inside to topple the once all-powerful drug clan.(commercial at 8:07)to contact me:[email protected]:https://www.sundayworld.com/crime/irish-crime/christy-kinahan-snr-orders-sean-mcgovern-probe-as-mole-suspicions-run-high-41700697.html

​In the "Reply Memorandum of Law in Further Support of Defendant Sean Combs’s Motion to Dismiss Count Three of the Superseding Indictment," Combs's legal team argues for the dismissal of the charge related to the Mann Act, which pertains to the transportation of individuals for prostitution. They assert that this statute, historically known as the White-Slave Traffic Act of 1910, has racist origins and has been disproportionately used to target Black men, citing past controversial prosecutions of figures like boxer Jack Johnson and musician Chuck Berry. Combs's attorneys contend that he is being unfairly singled out because of his status as a powerful Black man, facing prosecution for actions that typically go unpunished in others.Furthermore, the defense highlights the statute's historical misuse and argues that its application in this case is unjust. They emphasize that the Mann Act's origins are rooted in racial discrimination and that its enforcement has often been racially biased. By invoking this historical context, Combs's legal team seeks to demonstrate that the current charge under this statute is both inappropriate and discriminatory, warranting its dismissal to ensure a fair and just legal process.to contact me:[email protected]:gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.186.0.pdf

​In response to Defendant Bryan Kohberger's Motion in Limine #9, which seeks to exclude evidence of his Amazon click activity at trial, the State argues that such evidence is both relevant and admissible. The prosecution contends that Kohberger's Amazon activity, particularly his purchase of a Ka-Bar knife and related items in March 2022, is directly linked to the case. They assert that this evidence demonstrates Kohberger's possession of a knife matching the sheath found at the crime scene, which contained his DNA. Additionally, the State maintains that the Amazon click activity is pertinent, as it reflects Kohberger's interest in knives and accessories both before and after the alleged offenses.The State refutes the defense's claim that the Amazon data is incomplete or taken out of context, asserting that the evidence was obtained through a valid search warrant and encompasses relevant periods before and after the crimes. They argue that the click activity is not unfairly prejudicial and that its probative value outweighs any potential prejudice. The prosecution also emphasizes that the evidence is not misleading and that any concerns about Amazon's algorithms influencing user behavior do not diminish the relevance of Kohberger's specific search and purchase history. Therefore, the State requests that the court deny the defendant's motion and allow the Amazon click activity evidence to be presented at trial.to contact me:[email protected]:031725-States-Response-Defendants-MiL-9-RE-Excluding-Amazon-Click-Activity-Trial.pdf

​Prosecutors in the Bryan Kohberger case have introduced evidence indicating that Kohberger purchased a Ka-Bar knife, along with a sheath and sharpener, from Amazon between March 20 and March 30, 2022—approximately eight months prior to the November 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students. A knife sheath found at the crime scene contained Kohberger's DNA, strengthening the prosecution's argument that the sheath belonged to him. Additionally, prosecutors have obtained a selfie Kohberger took hours after the killings, which they plan to use to corroborate an eyewitness description of the suspect having "bushy eyebrows."The defense has filed motions to exclude Kohberger's Amazon purchase history and the "bushy eyebrows" description from trial, arguing that such evidence is prejudicial and could deny him a fair trial. Despite these efforts, the prosecution maintains that the Amazon purchase history is relevant, as it shows Kohberger's acquisition of a knife matching the sheath found at the crime scene. The trial is scheduled to begin on August 11, 2025, with prosecutors indicating their intent to seek the death penalty if Kohberger is convicted.to contact me:[email protected]:Idaho prosecutors: Kohberger bought Ka-Bar knife, sheath | Idaho Statesman

The men or women who sit at the head of criminal organizations function much in the same way that a CEO would for a big business and most of these men or women who are running cartels would have just as much success running a legit business as they do an illicit one.

​In the case identified as CR01-24-31665, defendant Bryan Kohberger has filed a motion to suppress evidence obtained from the execution of a Pennsylvania search warrant at 119 Lamsden Drive, Albrightsville, PA, as well as statements he made during that operation. Kohberger's defense argues that the search warrant was invalid due to alleged reckless or intentional omissions of material facts in the supporting affidavit. They contend that these omissions led to a lack of probable cause, rendering the search unconstitutional. Additionally, the defense asserts that law enforcement's failure to properly "knock and announce" their presence violated Kohberger's Fourth Amendment rights, and that any statements he made during the search should be suppressed as they were obtained without a Miranda warningIn response, the State maintains that the search was conducted under a valid warrant issued by a Pennsylvania court, based on substantial probable cause. They argue that the affidavit supporting the warrant was sufficient and did not omit any material information that would invalidate the warrant. The State also contends that the "knock and announce" procedure was appropriately followed, and that Kohberger's statements during the search were either spontaneous or made after he was informed of his rights, thereby complying with legal requirements. Consequently, the State requests that the court deny Kohberger's motion to suppress the evidence obtained from the search at 119 Lamsden Drive and his subsequent statements.to contact me:[email protected]:111424-REDACTED-Motion-Supress-Memorandum-Support-Lamsden-Statements.pdf

​On the fourth day of Lori Vallow Daybell's trial, key testimony was provided by Melanie Gibb, a close friend of Vallow. Gibb detailed Vallow's escalating involvement with Chad Daybell and their shared apocalyptic beliefs, which included concepts of "light" and "dark" spirits and the notion of individuals becoming "zombies" when possessed by evil entities. Gibb recounted that Vallow believed her children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan, along with her husband Charles Vallow, had become "dark" or possessed, leading to justifications for extreme actions against them.Gibb also testified about a recorded phone conversation she had with Vallow and Daybell in November 2019, during which she confronted them about JJ's whereabouts. In this call, Vallow claimed JJ was safe and happy, but Gibb expressed concerns about their beliefs and actions. This testimony provided insight into the defendants' mindset and the justifications they allegedly used for their actions, highlighting the influence of their shared religious beliefs on the events leading up to the children's disappearances.to contact me:[email protected]

The powerful and sad testimony of Detective Hermosillo has set the tone for the prosecution and right out of the gate, was devastating to the defense and Lori Vallow. With emotions in the courtroom ranging from crying to blazing hot anger, there was not a single person who wasn't moved by what they saw and heard. That includes the jurors.​On the third day of Lori Vallow Daybell's trial, the prosecution presented further evidence and witness testimonies to build their case against her. Fremont County Lieutenant Joe Powell testified about the investigation into the death of Tammy Daybell, Chad Daybell's first wife, whose demise was initially deemed natural but later considered suspicious. Lt. Powell discussed the decision to exhume Tammy's body for further examination, highlighting that her prior good health raised questions about the circumstances of her death.Additionally, FBI Tactical Specialist Nicole Heideman took the stand to explain the process of phone attribution, which involves determining the primary users of specific phone numbers. She revealed that Chad Daybell had multiple phone numbers during the relevant period, with three being of particular interest to the investigation. Similarly, Lori Vallow and her brother, Alex Cox, each had several phone numbers, with three associated with each being focal points in the case. This testimony aimed to establish communication patterns among the defendants, potentially linking them to the alleged crimes.to contact me:[email protected]
