  • Man Confesses To Setting Fires At Predominantly Black Church In Rhode Island, Investigators Say

    Man Confesses To Setting Fires At Predominantly Black Church In Rhode Island, Investigators Say

    A Rhode Island man confessed to using gasoline to ignite multiple fires outside a predominantly Black church earlier this year, as detailed in a federal plea agreement reported by CNN.

    According to prosecutors, Kevin Colantonio started several fires around the Shiloh Gospel Temple in North Providence on the morning of February 11. He used a lighter along with gasoline that he bought specifically for the arson. The building was unoccupied at the time. The fires were swiftly put out by members of the North Providence Police and Fire departments, who arrived at the scene around 12:12 a.m. after receiving reports of someone attempting to start fires, according to investigators.

    The fires resulted in property damage. Investigators noted that if not for the prompt response of first responders, the damage to the church could have been devastating. Zachary Cunha, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Rhode Island, mentioned that during Colantonio’s arrest, authorities searched his home. They found notebooks and writings containing phrases such as

    “burn churches down to the ground,”

    “hunt them down,”

    and

    “gun everyone down who isn’t White.”

    The plea agreement, submitted in federal court last week, indicates that Colantonio deliberately targeted the church because of the

    “actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, and/or ethnicity of the congregants.” 

    No injuries were reported. Colantonio is facing four charges of obstruction of the free exercise of religious beliefs, malicious damage by fire, and two counts of assault on a federal officer. If the sentences are served consecutively, he could face up to 56 years in prison, with a mandatory minimum of 5 years, a fine of $1 million, and three years of supervised release.

    14-Year-Old Girl Discovered In The Woods After Man She Met Online Gaming Exploited Her For Sex

    A 14-year-old girl endured days alone in the woods after a man she met through an online video game, with whom she had a sex with, discovered her age and abandoned her there, as reported by the NY Post.

    The suspect, 28-year-old Alexander Materne, initially met the teenager in person on December 23. He subsequently took the young girl from Tennessee to his residence in St. Rose, Louisiana, according to the St. Charles Parish Sheriff’s Office.

    While at Materne’s residence, the two engaged in sexual activities, during which the girl disclosed her age to the 28-year-old, according to the news release. Materne then packed a tent, food, and water before leaving the young girl in the Louisiana wilderness in Tangipahoa Parish. The Sheriff’s Office stated that he then went off to celebrate the holidays with his family.

    After the girl had been missing for a considerable time, concerned family members began investigating and uncovered her relationship with the older man. They contacted Materne’s relatives and managed to reach individuals who were at a Christmas party he attended. Sheriff’s deputies intervened at the family celebration and forced Materne to reveal the location where he had left the minor, according to the report. 

    The 14-year-old was located in good health and taken to a hospital for further evaluation. Materne was charged with one count of Contributing to the Delinquency of a Juvenile and one count of Aggravated Kidnapping of a Child.

    Colorado Man Wanted In Connection With Failed Bank Robbery After Giving Teller ‘Illegible’ Note, Police Say

    A man in Colorado reportedly tried to rob a bank, but things didn’t unfold as he intended, according to the NY Post. The would-be robber walked away empty-handed after giving a note to a teller who couldn’t decipher his message, as detailed by the police.

    The event took place just before 5 p.m. on December 17 at First National Bank, located at 750 North Lincoln Ave. in Loveland, Colorado, as stated by the Loveland Police Department. This city is located approximately 50 miles north of Denver.

    “illegible,”

    police said per CBS Colorado.

  • Pastor Seemingly Shocked After Finding Out Spouse Is Cooperating With Police In Alleged Abuse Of Eight Children

    Pastor Seemingly Shocked After Finding Out Spouse Is Cooperating With Police In Alleged Abuse Of Eight Children

    A pastor is behind bars for allegedly abusing eight children in his residence, as reported by Law & Crime.  Keith Lynn Holt, 58, from Blackwell’s House of Prayer, seemingly showed his frustration by muttering to himself, leaning back in his chair, sighing, and crossing his legs.

    “Wife turned against me. You’re the one who caused it,”

    he whispered while alone in the room.

    He is scheduled to stand trial on February 25, 2025, in Kay County, Oklahoma. According to police statements from January 17, 2024, the children living in the home suffered substantial abuse. One girl was reported to have bruises on her arms and legs, along with a black eye. 

    A boy alleged that Keith Holt punched him and threw him down the stairs. Records indicate that Candy Denise Holt, 53, pleaded no contest to three charges of enabling child abuse and one charge of child neglect. On December 13, she was sentenced to a total of 10 years in prison. However, the judge suspended nine of those years, meaning she will only serve one year in Kay County Jail, with credit for time already served. 

    Additionally, she is required to

    “testify truthfully,”

    according to court documents. In January, she acknowledged hitting one of the children when he was four years old and stated that her husband spanked his two biological children, though she insisted that he never left any marks. She refuted claims of seeing her husband hit the children with wood, asserting that he only used a belt. 

    Keith Holt, for his part, stated that he never

    “corrected”

    certain children because their mother did not want them to experience corporal punishment. The officer said that the five older kids made the allegations and gave them the board that was found behind the TV. He is being charged with three counts of child abuse and one charge of child neglect.

  • Mexico To Open Up Shelters For Over 12,000 Of Its Citizens Deported During Trump’s Illegal Immigrant Crackdown

    Mexico To Open Up Shelters For Over 12,000 Of Its Citizens Deported During Trump’s Illegal Immigrant Crackdown

    Mexico is preparing to welcome back its citizens who have been living in the U.S. illegally, as reported by the NY Post. Officials are set to open over 12,000 beds in shelters nationwide to accommodate these individuals. 

    According to Baja California Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda, the 25 planned shelters, each designed to hold 500 people, will commence operations on the day President-elect Trump is inaugurated.

    “This is a strategic plan to accommodate exclusively people who get deported after Jan. 20,”

    Olmeda said. Olmeda expressed that she takes Trump’s warnings about mass deportations seriously.

    “What we do know, throughout his campaign, he threatened to do this, and since he was already president of the United States, we believe this time he will be stricter and tougher when it comes to deportations,”

    she said.

    “We are working to get ready and receive our migrants.”

    These shelters will exclusively serve Mexican citizens being returned to their country and will not accommodate migrants deported from other nations.

    “These shelters that are being planned are for those being repatriated who are coming from north to south, but no foreigners, only Mexicans, this must be made clear — Mexicans will be welcomed back to their country and their human rights will be respected,”

    Olmeda explained.

    Five of the shelters will be placed near San Diego, an area known for high rates of illegal crossings at the U.S.-Mexico border, while two others will be established south of El Centro, California. The shelters are intended to temporarily house migrants for a few days until they can be sent back to their hometowns. Each facility designated for either men, women, unaccompanied children, or families.

  • Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Faces Lawsuit From Former Employee Who Claims He Was Forced To Clean Up After Days-Long Sex Parties

    Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Faces Lawsuit From Former Employee Who Claims He Was Forced To Clean Up After Days-Long Sex Parties

    A former employee of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is suing the rapper for sexual battery, sexual harassment, sex trafficking, and more, reports Page Six. 

    Phillip Pines’ lawsuit details what went down at Diddy’s sex parties. Pines described preparing hotel rooms for what he called

    “Wild King Nights,”

    which involved extended orgies with numerous women. Court documents reveal that he allegedly arranged the settings with red lighting, ice buckets, alcohol, marijuana, libido-enhancing honey packs, baby oil, lubrication, towels, illegal substances, and sex toys. 

    Additionally, he claimed in the legal filings that he disposed of evidence, including drugs, condoms, and sexual devices. In the lawsuit, Pines also stated that he cleaned up blood, bodily fluids, and urine. Noting that he would leave a generous tip for hotel staff so they wouldn’t report any damages. He further alleged that Combs, 55, forced him to engage in sexual acts while he watched, which made Pines feel

    “like an animal playing fetch in order to prove his loyalty.”

    Moreover, Pines criticized the Bad Boy Records founder in court documents for allegedly exposing him to COVID-19 in 2020. Combs’ legal team has denied these allegations, asserting to Page Six that Combs is

    “confident he will prevail in court.”

    The statement went on to add,

    “No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won’t change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone — man or woman, adult or minor.” 

    The songwriter has consistently denied any misconduct since his arrest in New York City in September, entering a plea of not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and prostitution. He is currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, NY, awaiting trial and has had bail denied on several occasions. Combs is also confronted with multiple sexual assault lawsuits, with Texas attorney Tony Buzbee representing over 100 alleged victims.

  • Arizona Second-Grader Used Heimlich Maneuver To Save Friend Who Choked On Grape During Lunch Time, Reports Say

    Arizona Second-Grader Used Heimlich Maneuver To Save Friend Who Choked On Grape During Lunch Time, Reports Say

    A second-grader from Arizona is being hailed a hero after he saved his friend who began choking on his lunch at school, as reported by the NY Post.

    Thomas Conley, an 8-year-old student at Porter Elementary School in Mesa, Arizona, was praised for his courageous actions and honored during a school assembly last week for his swift response. On November 14, Conley was having lunch with his friend Isaiah, when suddenly his classmate stood up and fell over the bench.

    “I heard him crying, so just like, ‘What’s wrong?’ And for a second, I didn’t know what he was doing. But finally, I realized that he was choking, so I just decided to do the Heimlich,”

    Thomas told KYMA.

    Isaiah began to choke on a grape. Without a moment’s pause, Thomas quickly jumped into action, wrapping his arms around his friend’s abdomen from behind. In just a few seconds, he was able to dislodge the grape from Isaiah’s throat, ultimately saving his life.

    “I’m super grateful, and I wanted him to know how proud I was of him and how thankful I was,”

    Isaiah’s mom, Maria Anderson, said in a video posted by Mesa Fire and Medical Department.

    Candice Conley, Thomas’ mother, who also works in the food industry, told Fox News Digital, that she taught Thomas food and kitchen safety at home. Those lessons have paid off tremendously.

    “We are so proud of him,”

    the mom said.

    “Thomas is very quick-thinking and active — and he’s just a really good friend.”

    At that moment, Thomas didn’t fully grasp the significance of his bravery. His response was,

    “It’s because that I don’t want Isaiah to die,”

    he told KYMA. Last Tuesday, during an assembly with all his classmates, the Mesa Fire and Medical Department awarded him a certificate to acknowledge his heroic actions.

    Sleeping Man On Queens Subway Stabs Two Would-Be Robbers, Resulting In One Death

    A man who was napping in a subway car in Queens early Sunday morning ended up stabbing two thieves who attempted to steal his bags, resulting in one of them being killed, according to ABC 7 News.

    The violent altercation took place around 12:30 a.m. on a Manhattan-bound No. 7 train. The 69-year-old man was sleeping with his bags nearby when a group of five men approached him, according to sources. As the train neared the 61st St. and Woodside Ave. station in Woodside, the group attempted to steal his bags. It was at this moment that the man woke up and fought to reclaim his belongings.

    This led to a struggle in which the man pulled out a knife and stabbed two members of the group, according to sources. A 32-year-old was stabbed in the chest, and another was slashed in the face. The entire incident was captured on subway surveillance cameras, sources revealed. Medics transported both victims to Elmhurst Hospital, but the man with the chest wound did not survive, police reported.

    The man who did the stabbing was taken into custody, where prosecutors will have to determine what charges he may face or if he acted in self-defense. The other three thieves fled the scene but were later apprehended about two blocks away, sources said. The police have not yet released the identity of the deceased.
