App allows tracking of New York police "stop-and-frisk"

Posted In: News

Determined to keep tabs on New York City police officers’ “stop-and-frisk” campaign? There’s an app for that.

A new smartphone app created by the New York Civil Liberties Union, “Stop and Frisk Watch,” allows witnesses of the controversial New York City Police Department tactic to video and report incidents.

The NYCLU app has three main functions:

* “Record,” which allows bystanders to video an incident and send the video to the group with a shake of their phones;

* “Listen,” which alerts users when searches are being

conducted near them; and

* “Report,” which allows users to send the NYCLU information about searches that were not filmed.

The app is intended for use by people witnessing a police encounter, not by individuals who are the subject of a police stop, the NYCLU said.

Chicago cop shoots pregnant woman with stun gun in parking dispute

Posted In: Live Blog, News

A pregnant woman was shot with a stun gun by Chicago police during a dispute over a parking ticket, myFOXchicago.com reported Wednesday.

Tiffany Rent — who is not handicapped, but is eight months pregnant — was ticketed for parking in a handicapped spot in the parking lot of a Roseland Walgreens, at 103rd and Michigan Ave. She tore up the ticket, threw it at the officer and tried to take off, according to police.

The officer used a stun gun on Rent, 30, to subdue her. Her family told the Chicago Tribune she was still seated in her vehicle when the stun gun was fired during Tuesday night’s incident.

Rent’s fiance Joseph Hobbs, who is also the father of the baby, was in the car at the time and was arrested after getting involved in the confrontation. Rent’s young son and daughter, ages nine and three, also witnessed the incident.

The police department said the officer may not have known Rent was pregnant. She was taken to Roseland Hospital after a female officer noticed she was pregnant on the scene.

    FBI: Motorcycle Gang Trademarked Logo to Keep Narcs at Bay

    by Nate on April 22, 2012 at 3:21 pm
    Posted In: Live Blog, News

    We’ve always considered trademarking as a way to protect a company’s intellectual property and to aid consumers in identifying trusted products and services.

    But on Tuesday, we stumbled on a novel use of intellectual-property law put into play by an alleged organized crime syndicate founded in Southern California.

    The Vagos Motocrycle Club, which the Federal Bureau of Investigation has declared an outlaw motorcycle gang, has trademarked its jacket patch, replete with the trademark registration symbol, “in an effort to prevent law enforcement agencies from inserting undercover officers into their organization,” according to an FBI memo that surfaced on Tuesday.

    Michigan’s medical marijuana law is no protection for drivers, appellate court says

    Apr22
    by Nate on April 22, 2012 at 3:07 pm
    Posted In: Live Blog, News

    Users of medical marijuana cannot legally drive if they have any amount of the drug in their systems, the state Court of Appeals said in a ruling issued this morning.

    The appellate court said the state’s “zero tolerance” law, which prevents motorists from operating a vehicle with any amount of a Schedule 1 controlled substance in their body, still applies for drivers who legally use medical marijuana.

    The ruling came in a Grand Traverse County case in which Prosecutor Alan Schneider charged Rodney Koon with driving under the influence.

    In July 2009, Green’s grandson, Tallie, was shot and wounded. Tallie said he was shot at a convenience store, but police insisted it happened inside Green’s house and that the shooter was either Tallie or Green.

    “Police kept questioning him. They wouldn’t let the ambulance attendant treat him,” Green said. “So, I got up and said, ‘Sir, would you please let the attendants treat him? He’s in pain,’” Green said.

    Green said the officer said to her, “Oh, you did it, come on, let’s go inside. I’ll prove where that blood is. You did it.”

    Police wanted to go the basement, where Tallie lived, but Green refused on the basis that the police did not have a warrant.

    Posted In: Live Blog, News

    Registered sex offenders of all designations residing in the state of New York will no longer be able to interact with children in some online console and PC games. New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s office has convinced several platform holders and game companies such as Microsoft, Apple, Blizzard Entertainment, Electronic Arts, Warner Bros. and Disney Interactive Media Group to shut down the communication privileges of registered sex offenders. The New York State AG is calling it “Operation: Game Over” (official press release here).
