The Polygon and the Avalanche: How the Gilgo Beach Suspect Was Found

They called it the polygon.

Using phone records and a sophisticated system that maps the reach of cell towers, a team of investigators had drawn the irregular shape across a map of tree-lined streets in the Long Island suburb of Massapequa Park. By 2021, the investigators had been able to shrink the polygon so that it covered only several hundred homes.

In one of those homes, the investigators believed, lived a serial killer.

Watership Down now rated PG after 45 years of terrifying children

When Watership Down was first released in 1978, the film’s director, Martin Rosen, insisted the image featured on its promotional poster should warn viewers that this was no cutesy cartoon about some bunnies.

“I reckoned a mother with a sensitive child would see a rabbit in a snare with blood coming out its mouth and reckon, ‘Well, maybe this isn’t for Charlie – it’s a little too tough,’” he has said.


Someone told me of Charlottes Web.

The Policies Come Home to Roost: Chicago Neighborhood Tired of Illegal Immigrant Violence

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been making a public relations push to tell illegal aliens not to come to the sanctuary city formerly known as the Big Apple. He’s gone as far as to distribute leaflets to newly arrived immigrants suggesting they take their residency elsewhere. This is odd, considering the fact that so many of New York’s original residents have high-tailed it to red states. There should be enough room for anyone obtuse enough to actually want to move to NYC.

Activists split over whether reparations should go to Black immigrants

BOSTON — When this city announced earlier this year that it would consider giving reparations to its Black residents, it was heralded as another victory in a national movement to offer recompense for the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow segregation.

The city had played a key role in financing the slave trade and was the site of fierce resistance to integration. Now, advocates said, it was time to address the lingering damage.

But as the mayor started choosing members for the Boston task force, the city quickly became one of the chief battlegrounds of an adjacent fight playing out within the Black community: Should reparations programs be limited to people who trace their ancestry back to American slavery, or should they include Black immigrants who came to the country by choice?

Canadian intelligence flagged Chinese meddling 37 years ago: newly released report

OTTAWA – A newly released document shows intelligence officials have been tracking China’s attempts to meddle in Canadian affairs for more than one-third of a century.

It said China was using new and potentially more potent techniques to accomplish these goals.

Protests across Muslim nations after Sweden allows second attack on Qur’an

Thousands of people took part in protests across Muslim majority nations on Friday after a second incident in Sweden involving the desecration of the Qur’an.

The episode left the Swedish government apologetic and fearing that the outrage in the Middle East may delay Turkey lifting its veto on Sweden’s membership of Nato.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan had said at the Nato summit in Vilnius that he would recommend the Turkish parliament ratify Sweden’s application, ending Turkey’s year-long veto, but on returning from a trip from the Gulf he merely said Turkish ratification was contingent on the steps taken by Sweden.

What we know about William Majcher, the retired RCMP officer charged with conducting foreign interference for China

In 2014, as Beijing was ramping up Operation Fox Hunt, a sprawling campaign to go after corrupt politicians and economic criminals hiding overseas, a representative of the Chinese government approached William Majcher.

A retired former undercover officer with the RCMP, Mr. Majcher had been living in Hong Kong for seven years, working as a corporate investigator and advising banks on money laundering. According to Mr. Majcher, he was invited to meet someone “very close to senior state security,” who asked him whether he would be able to help track down money stolen by corrupt officials.

Living with doing a “human rights abuse level of awful thing to your own child”

” … In some cases, it’s a classic Munchausen by proxy abuse situation. The parent, almost invariably the mother, is driving a child into the arms of trans activists and gender affirming medical butchers. Always pushing, questioning a child’s natural reticence once things go too far, insisting they know better. I think of Jazz Jennings’s mother and his monstrous doctor, Marci Bowers – for all the world to see – pushing that boy to slice and dice himself to bits for ratings and their own glory.”

The inhumane virtue signalers like Trudeau will never give a second thought to the horror they have created.

Mohammad Moiz Omar acknowledges his attack on Mississauga Mosque constitutes terrorist activity

A man who assaulted worshippers at a mosque in Mississauga, Ont., last year had been planning the attack for a year and was motivated by hatred of and a desire to intimidate Muslims, court documents show.

Mohammad Moiz Omar “intended to perpetrate a mass casualty event” when he entered the Dar Al-Tawheed Islamic Centre during early morning prayer on March 19, 2022 and sprayed bear spray toward congregants while swinging a hatchet, according to an agreed statement of facts read at the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Brampton, Ont. Wednesday.

Omar, who was 24 years old at the time of the attack, pleaded guilty to three charges, according to one of his lawyers, Jacob Roth of Robichaud Criminal Lawyers. Those charges include administering a noxious substance with intent to endanger life or cause bodily harm, assault with a weapon, and mischief to religious property with motivation of bias, prejudice or hate based on religion.

US women’s soccer stars at World Cup opener remain mostly silent during anthem

Megan Rapinoe Victoria’s Secret Brand Ambassador. What could go wrong?

Much of the US women’s soccer team remained silent during the playing of The Star-Spangled Banner at Friday’s World Cup opener in New Zealand, prompting critics to excoriate players over a perceived lack of patriotism.

Before beating Vietnam, 3-0, to open Group E play, six of 11 starting players opted against placing their hands over their hearts, instead keeping their arms at their sides or behind their backs. Meanwhile, five others did put their hands on their hearts, including three — Julie Ertz, Alyssa Naeher and Lindsey Horan — who also sang the national anthem lyrics.

Tacky but not as bad as Canada fielding a Guy.
