ALABAMA Fights BACK: Undercover Heroes Take on Fentanyl Crisis

10 November 2024 — A small city in Alabama is fighting back against a surge in drug activity, particularly involving FENTANYL. Local police officers, many of whom grew up in the community, are determined to reclaim their town from this crisis. Lou Valoze, a retired ATF agent, emphasized the personal stakes for these officers as they engage in undercover work to combat illegal drugs and trafficking.

Valoze is featured in a new Investigation Discovery series titled “Operation Undercover,” which showcases real-life police operations aimed at safeguarding communities nationwide. The show provides exclusive footage of stings targeting drug suppliers and traffickers. The first episode highlights Oxford, Alabama’s battle against fentanyl smuggling along Highway 20.

Fentanyl has become the primary drug of choice for smugglers due to its potency — 50 times stronger than heroin. This alarming trend has prompted intensified law enforcement efforts to dismantle trafficking networks and protect local residents from its devastating impact.

COLD-BLOODED Killer Still Roams Free: 16 Years of Heartbreak in Tinley Park

20 October 2024 — On February 2, 2008, a man pretending to be a delivery driver entered a Lane Bryant store in Tinley Park, Illinois. Armed with a .40-caliber semiautomatic handgun, he forced six women into a back room. After tying their hands with duct tape and assaulting one woman, he shot all six victims.

Amazingly, one woman survived and gave police a description of the suspect. Despite thousands of leads over the past 16 years, authorities have yet to catch him. The suspect is described as a Black man between 25 and 35 years old at the time of the crime, standing just over six feet tall with corn-rowed hair and green beads on one braid.

Grainy surveillance footage showed two dark vehicles near the scene during the murders. However, it is unclear if either vehicle was used by the attacker. The tragic event claimed five lives: Jennifer Bishop, Carrie Chiuso, Rhoda McFarland, Sarah Szafranski, and Connie Woolfolk.

The Tinley Park Police continue to seek justice for these victims while urging anyone with information to come forward. This cold-blooded case remains unsolved despite extensive efforts by law enforcement agencies for more than a decade.

HURRICANE MILTON’S Fury: Florida’s Heroic Rescue Efforts and Destruction

10 October 2024 — More than 3 million Floridians are without power as Hurricane MILTON wreaks havoc across the state. The storm hit near Siesta Key as a Category 3 hurricane, leaving four dead in St. Lucie County due to tornadoes. Governor Ron DeSantis confirmed that over 48 people have been rescued so far, with more than 125 active rescue missions underway in 26 counties.

Milton has now moved off Florida’s east coast, downgraded to a Category 1 storm, but not before causing significant damage through destructive winds and flooding. The worst-hit areas include Pinellas, Hillsborough, Manatee, and Sarasota counties. “The storm was significant,” DeSantis stated, emphasizing the widespread impact but noting it was not the worst-case scenario.

Tampa Bay faced severe weather conditions with up to 18 inches of rainfall reported in some areas and a construction crane collapsing into an office building housing the Tampa Bay Times headquarters. The roof of Tropicana Field was also damaged by strong winds. Sarasota County experienced a substantial storm surge between eight and ten feet high.

Water levels are expected to rise along northeast and west-central Florida rivers over the next day or so, potentially reaching flood stages according to forecasts. Despite the challenges posed by Hurricane Milton’s impact on infrastructure and communities, rescue efforts continue

TEXAS Supreme Court DISMISSES Abortion Challenge: Pregnant Woman with Fetal Anomaly Forced to Leave State

12 December 2023 — Kate Cox, a pregnant woman from Texas, found herself in a dire situation when her unborn child was diagnosed with trisomy 18 — a fatal condition. With the state’s strict abortion ban in place, she had no choice but to leave Texas and seek an abortion elsewhere. This happened just before the Texas Supreme Court rejected her challenge against the stringent abortion legislation.

Cox spent nearly a week trying to get court approval for ending her pregnancy due to health risks and potential fertility issues in the future. However, Attorney General Ken Paxton argued that Cox didn’t provide enough evidence that her pregnancy complications were life-threatening.

Even after leaving Texas, Cox’s case was dismissed by the state Supreme Court. The court ruled that while Cox’s pregnancy complications were severe, they didn’t pose an immediate threat to her life as required by law for an exception.

The Center for Reproductive Rights represented Cox during this ordeal. They reported that she had been frequently visiting emergency rooms due to health concerns related to her pregnancy. However, they did not reveal where she eventually went for the procedure.
