Res Ipsa Loquitur: Dems Damn Kamala With Faint GOP Praise

Four teenagers facing murder charges over the fatal beating of a Las Vegas boy outside his high school last November have reached a plea deal with prosecutors that has enabled them to avoid serving time in adult prison. The mother of the victim of the deadly beating is outraged over the plea deal. Dontral Beaver, 16; Treavion Randolph, 16; Gianni Robinson, 17; and Damien Hernandez, 18; all agreed on Thursday to plead guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the death of 17-year-old Jonathan Lewis Jr., according to KLAS-TV.'There is no justice for my son Jonathan Lewis that was stomped to death and murdered while 20 people stood there and did nothing more than film it and broadcast it to social media.'The plea deal will allow all four teens to no longer face murder charges as adults, and they will be sentenced in juvenile court. The plea deal would mean the teens would avoid being locked up in an adult prison.All of the teens were under the age of 18 when the alleged crime was committed and were formally charged with second-degree murder in January. Five other teens were also charged in the case with four of them having already pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the juvenile court system. One teen is yet to be sentenced.The victim's mother said she was blindsided by the plea deal and claimed that she was not notified of the hearing held on Thursday.“I was told that they were going to plea guilty to murder and that the most they would get in the adult system is two years,” Mellisa Ready told KLAS-TV.“I would’ve disagreed with the deal entirely. They should be accountable as adults — they made an adult choice,” Ready continued. “They knew that when they were stomping on my child’s head that he was going to die as a result. You cannot jump in a human being’s head, stomp on him, and think that they’re going to remain alive after.” Ready declared, “They knew he was going to die, and that’s how I feel — and they’re letting them get away with murder.”The distraught mother added, “There is no justice for my son Jonathan Lewis that was stomped to death and murdered while 20 people stood there and did nothing more than film it and broadcast it to social media.” Robert Draskovich — the attorney for Gianni Robinson — told KLAS-TV, “We were able to evaluate all the evidence as a whole and reach this mutually beneficial negotiation. Obviously, what occurred is a tragedy, but convicting these young men of murder would be a second tragedy, following the first.”As Blaze News previously reported, Lewis was brutally mauled by a group of teens outside Rancho High School in Las Vegas on Nov. 1, 2023. Video of the vicious attack was uploaded to social media and shows a mob of teens kicking, stomping, and punching Lewis. Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officers responded to a battery call and found Lewis battered and bleeding from the head. The teen was rushed to a local hospital in critical condition. Six days later, he was medically declared brain dead. The teen died after succumbing to his significant injuries. His cause of death was declared to be blunt force trauma, and his death was ruled a homicide.Las Vegas Metro Police Lt. Jason Johansson previously said investigators suspect that the fight stemmed from a pair of wireless headphones and "possibly" a vape pen being stolen from Lewis or his friend.At the time of the assault, Johansson described the fatal attack as being "very void of humanity."

A New Jersey man was sentenced for the death of his 6-year-old boy after video showed him abusing the child as he forced him to run on a treadmill.Christopher Gregor was sentenced to 25 years in prison for aggravated manslaughter and child endangerment. 'He never had an ounce of love for Corey.'Gregor maintained that he was not guilty for the death of his son Corey Micciolo, who was taken to a hospital on April 2, 2021, after he awoke from a nap slurring his speech, stumbling, and experiencing nausea. He died from seizures at the hospital. "I want to assure you that on April 2, I did nothing to cause Corey's passing," said Gregor at trial. "I didn't hurt my son. I loved him and I still do."Ocean County Superior Court Judge Guy P. Ryan, however, cited the video from a gym where Gregor forced his son to continue running on the treadmill as he increased the speed. The boy fell several times and Gregor is seen dragging him up by his shirt and appearing to bite him on the head at one point.Gregor faced 40 years in prison, and the judge tried to pre-empt criticism over the sentence by pointing out that maximum sentences aren't usually handed down to defendants with a minimal criminal record. "It just doesn't happen, despite the public perception that it should happen," Ryan said. The child's mother said at the trial she did not accept the apology from Gregor. "Today, I don't believe a word he said and I don't accept any apology," she said. "He never had an ounce of love for Corey." Like Blaze News?

Life as a young star can be an incredibly volatile thing, with too many variables just ready to push for—at the very least—normalcy, and at worst, disaster. A lot of that depends on the parents. For Brooke Shields her mother tried to maintain total control over the actress’s dating life, and even pushed her into an arranged—and ultimately failed—relationship with John Travolta. 70-year-old Travolta first gained national prominence in the sitcom Welcome Back, Kotter, followed by one usccess after another with Carrie, Saturday Night Fever, and Grease. Shields began her career as a child model starting at just 11 months old. One of her most infamous acting credits, Pretty Baby, came when she was just 11. In Brooke’s 2014 memoir, There Was a Little Girl: The Real Story of My Mother and Me, fans get a look at the way her mother’s will impacted her life in the most personal of ways.

She Admits She’s ‘Always Tired’ And ‘Stopped Sleeping’ “Basically my ‘relationships’ had always been orchestrated by my mother in one way or another,” Shields claims in her memoir. “She directed my romantic life sometimes subtly and sometimes not. She didn’t focus on romance (never mind love), but instead wanted to associate me with names that connoted fame, money, and power. These were relationships she supported, also because they were less attainable.” Reclaiming the narrative Around the time John Travolta and Brooke Shields had Blow Out and Endless Love releasing, her mother set them up for a relationship / (c) Filmways/courtesy Everett Collection So, just as Travolta had Blow Out, Shields had Endless Love premiering.
