ST. Louis– Josh Childers, 3, missing for almost 50 hours, was found within 3 miles of his home in Mark Twain National Forest. Details of his condition were not immediately known; he was taken to an undisclosed Hospital.
San Bernadino, CA– On Sunday afternoon, just as the Rodriguez family was about to leave their home, 2 gunman burst into the home of Maria Rosalina Millan, tied up the family with red tape and began ransacking the home.
After about 20 minutes of the gunmen rummaging through the home taking money, Rosalina’s cell phone and some undisclosed items, the men left with Briant, ordering his mother and the other children not to call police. While inside the house, one of the attackers appeared to be directed to areas of the home via a hand-held 2way device.
Briant is the youngest of Millan’s seven children, 2 of which were not present at the time of the abduction. Briant’s older brother Benjamin Barasa:
Briant’s older brother said the men tried to steal the family car.
“Our keys were inside our car, cause we were about to leave,” 14-year-old Benjamin Barasa said. “So they couldn’t find them, so they got mad. They took my little brother. He didn’t know what was happening, so he wasn’t crying.”
An 8 year old brother who freed himself while the men were on their way out with his baby brother attempted to go after Briant, but was unsuccessful. After 9 hours, an Amber Alert was issued for Briant Rodriguez.
Orlando, FL– In the latest of what seems to be a mounting stockpile of concerns regarding tot mom defense attorney Jose Baez and a member of the defense team, Todd Macaluso, The Orlando Sentinel released the latest bombshell: The Florida Bar DENIED BAEZ ADMISSION the first time around.
Jose Angel Baez, currently under investigation by the Florida Bar Association (FBA) in a minimum of 3 separate inquiries was denied admission to the Florida Bar following his initial application in 1999. This information is in stark contrast with an interview given by Baez below where he states (paraphrase) he made a monetary and travel decision to wait 8 years for FBA membership.
Baez appealed the decision of the FBA to the Florida Supreme Court, which governs the Florida Bar. In their decision, they agreed with the FBA, issuing an order in 2000 that cataloged unpaid bills, extravagant spending and other “financial irresponsibility” up to that time. Justices reserved their strongest condemnation for his failure to stay current on support payments for his only child.
His overall behavior, they wrote, showed “a total lack of respect for the rights of others and a total lack of respect for the legal system, which is absolutely inconsistent with the character and fitness qualities required of those seeking to be afforded the highest position of trust and confidence recognized by our system of law.”
