Indiana teen lured to death by neighbor who hired her, ‘acted like a jealous boyfriend’: report
After a nearly six-month-long search, missing Indiana 17-year-old Valerie Tindall was found just a hundred yards from her worried parents’ front door, hidden inside a homemade box on her landscaping boss’ property next door.
Scott also faces obstruction of justice and false informing charges, per court documents obtained by Fox News Digital, stemming from earlier false accounts he gave to police.
The court documents reveal that Scott confessed to police that he strangled her with a belt, which he continued to wear after the fact, in the bedroom of his home on June 7.
Chicago Suburbs Block Government-Imposed Migrant Housing with Big Hotel Taxes
The latest city to enact this harsh tax is northwest suburban Schaumburg, which implemented the tax for those staying longer than 30 days after hearing that state officials were looking at three hotels in the city to use for long-term housing for illegal aliens, the Daily Herald reported.
The first city to enact such a tax — aimed to convince hotels not to engage in such contracts — was Rosemont, a town with a long strip of hotels that usually caters to the convention business.
The hotels surround the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, an 840,000 sq. ft. facility that hosts a wide array of events.
Pennsylvania Man Released from Prison 27 Years After Wrongful Conviction for Brutal Beating Death of Laundromat Worker
In 1998, Eddie Ramirez was convicted of second-degree murder for the death of Joyce Dennis, who was found fatally beaten after a robbery in the back room of a laundromat in 1995.
Ramirez was a teenager at the time of the alleged murder, and the district attorney’s office said he was convicted despite a lack of physical evidence.
Prosecutors argued for all the charges against Ramirez, now 47, to be vacated after reviewing the case. According to the district attorney’s office, the Commonwealth “withheld substantial evidence that supported Ramirez’s trial defense” — an action it called “unacceptable and outrageous.”

Irish Justice Minister To Grant Police Sweeping Powers To Intercept Private Conversations on Social Media Sites Under New Legislation
The Irish police (Garda) is about to get new, wide-ranging powers to spy on people’s private online conversations happening via chat apps – in order to “crack down on crime” after last week’s events in Dublin.
But the events the Irish legislators are talking about are not the stabbing of 5 and 6-year-old children and their caregivers, but rather the reaction to the heinous crime, namely, the protests and riots that followed.
The Irish government is, overall, making a huge effort to redirect focus from the original event (committed by an Algerian man who had apparently been granted Irish citizenship) to preventing it from increasing the anti-migrant sentiment, that is already present in many European countries as a result of the controversial migrant policies over these last years.

Victor Davis Hanson: Hamas Relies on ‘Useful Western Idiots’ for Sympathy, Backlash in U.S. ‘Ensures’ GOP Victory
Consequently, he explains, Hamas has become “the Middle-East counterpart to BLM… and, more preposterously, the trans/gay/feminist movement,” while Israelis are “recalibrated as the demonized Western ‘colonialist’ white supremacists.”
“In precivilization fashion, [Hamas] wished to kill and mutilate the most vulnerable of all Israeli civilians and thus to shock the world that it was capable of — and proud about — anything, from decapitation to necrophilia,” Hanson writes.
“Such animalistic savagery, in the reckoning of Western therapeutic society, was supposedly to be seen as forced upon Hamas murderers by the ‘occupation,’” he adds.
