Drugs are Bad
Posted by Mug in drugs, In the News on January 19, 2012
So, we have all heard it before, but… Drugs Kill. In this instance, we had a high speed chase in a stolen Honda. High speed, running stop signs, flashing red lights until coming into contact with a Kansas City Water services truck. Thankfully the City employee only had minor injuries. The front passenger of the Honda, Christopher Ford, was pronounced dead at the hospital, and I was told they are pulling the second passenger off of life support tonight.
The driver of our topic today is this puke to the left. His name is Casey Cordell. Casey is a convicted felon with a record in Johnson County that dates back to 2003. Charges ranging from Criminal Damage to Cocaine Possession.
Cordell now sits in Jackson County custody on charges of manslaughter. Unfortunately, if my sources are right, it will be two charges by morning.
Drugs are bad, ummkay.
Stanford Griswold Charged in Euston Death.
Posted by Mug in In the News on January 27, 2011
This head-tilt gangster lean mugshot is that of Stanford Griswold. Griswold is currently being held on a $75,000 cash only bond in KCMO for the death of Brian Euston.
Brian Euston was outside of America’s Pub in Westport when he had been suggested to leave the area. He was also witnessed interacting with the suspect and his girlfriend, the tipster, prior to his injury that led to his death.
I guess Griswold taught that white-boy something. Shiiiit.
It is reported that Euston ranked among the elite in alcohol consumption with levels of 4 times the legal limit. But who isn’t near or beyond that in Westport? Isn’t that the only reason to go there? I can remember always starting the night at Kelly’s with one of their 96 ounce beers. Now, I have aged and not been to Westport in many years, but I am 99% sure these character types contributed to my absence.
Hearing on Friday 1-28-2011.
Olathe Daycare Provider gets 41 Months in Toddler Death.
Posted by Mug in In the News on December 23, 2010
Jeanette Lawrence ran a home daycare registered to operate and oversee the supervision of not more than six children. On the day of Ava’s death, there were eight more than allowed. A total of 14 children were in the home.
If you have ever been to a toddler or children’s birthday party, think about what it’s like to be around 14 kids at once. Please tell me how one person can deliver the kind of care it takes to supervise a child if there are 14?
Greed. The only logical reason someone would take on 14 kids at once. It’s not because it would be fun day in and day out. I am sure that Jeanette had her time of being a great child service provider. That has ended.
I am more familiar with the home she cared out of than most. It was a home I visited as a child and I can tell you that it is not a conducive floor plan to 14 kids. In fact the only floor plan I can think of as conducive would be a classroom.
Judge Franklin Davis did what any one of us would do in this case and sentenced Ms. Lawrence to the maximum sentence of 41-months. I know that the law limits these sentences and there is a reason. I will tell you that I am sure the entire Kansas City community feels for the Patricks. Hopefully this can be a story to learn from for other child providers and they will think twice before breaking the parameters of there registrations and licenses.
