The father of five was apprehended by the U.S. Marshals and is accused of killing the man who was found shot to death between houses in Greenville early Saturday morning. From The Republic:
GREENVILLE, S.C. — Authorities say a 27-year-old Greenville man is accused of killing a man whose body was found last week between two houses.
Greenville police said Thursday that the U.S. Marshals’ fugitive task force helped apprehend Joseph Christopher Walker. He is charged with murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime.
According to an arrest warrant, Walker and Young argued last Saturday, and Walker returned with a gun.
He is accused of shooting Jonathan Young multiple times. A passerby discovered his body Saturday morning.
According to an arrest warrant, Walker and Young argued last Saturday, and Walker returned with a gun. The warrant says a witness identified the suspect.
Fox Carolina is reporting that the police are still looking for witnesses so the investigation is clearly not closed.
Just like the Tea Party: Arrests Made in Occupy Oakland Murder
I went to two Greenville Tea Party events (and my homie Mark Sanford was at one – straight pimpin’) but there was nothing like this going on. It was all love and respect and patriotism. At Occupy Oakland it was about old school ‘banging:
OAKLAND, Calif. — Authorities have made an arrest in the shooting death of a man near the former Occupy Oakland encampment outside City Hall.
Police say 20-year-old Norris Terrell, of Oakland, was picked up last week in Louisville, Ky. Prosecutors have charged him with murder in the Nov. 10 slaying of 25-year-old Kayode Ola Foster, who was staying at the camp.
Police say Terrell also wounded a credit union teller with an errant bullet meant for Foster.
Three other people have also been arrested for assault in connection with the shooting. Police say 32-year-old Joseph Anthony Gholston, 20-year-old Excell McKinley and 18-year-old Carleon Roberson beat Foster before Terrell shot him.
Authorities say the shooting occurred after one of the suspects got into a dispute at the camp that might not have involved Foster.
As Mark “D-Droppa” Sanford would say don’t go to the ‘hood and don’t bring the ‘hood to you if you don’t have heart.
Word on the street is that the group were at Occupy to deal, were getting “down twinkled” too much and Foster just bumped into them at the wrong time.
Maybe Occupy organizers should warn their comrades about interacting with dangerous criminals?
John Young Died of Gunshot Wound
An autopsy was performed today to determine the cause of death of a man found between houses near Sullivan and Dean streets. As I suspected the man was a victim of a gunshot wound.
Raw video from WSPA shows that this happened in what most of us would call a rough neighborhood:
From WSPA:
Greenville County Coroner Sharon Craver is investigating a body that was found Saturday morning on Sullivan Street.
28 year old Jonathan Young was found in between two abandoned homes.

They believe the shooting occurred sometime between Friday night and early Saturday morning.

Importing Violence: Just Killing the Toddlers Americans Won’t in Connecticut
Since the Republican presidential debates have brought the issue of illegal immigration to the fore once again I decided to spend some time talking about the real problem of unassimilated aliens from cultures that are misogynist being allowed to dwell here without consequence. Legal immigration is important because it weeds out those who don’t want to assimilate, and is itself an assimilating experience. Border jumpers simply bring thier often times barbaric cultures with them. Dr. Deborah Schurman-Kauflin, author of the book Vulture: Profiling Sadistic Serial Killers, wrote two excellent essays on this topic that readers should look at. The first is called called The Dark Side of Illegal Immigration which deals specifically with sex crimes and the second is called Importing Violence which deals with cases like the one below.

South Carolina Man Shot by Ohio Craigslist Killers
Anyone who reads crime blogs knows sites like Craigslist are dangerous places frequented by all sorts of criminals looking for a quick score. Meeting anyone from these sites is risky and always has been. A local South Carolina resident found out the hard way that some of these people are interested in taking more than you’re money – they want you’re life:
One of the assailants was 16, the other a grown man and since the American press is being coy about the names to protect the identity of the kid it seems like the two are related. Let that sink in for a while. The Daily Mail identified the older man as 52-year-old Richard Beasley who has yet to be charged but is in jail on a prostitution charge. His mother claimed he hung around with drug addicts and “street people” so maybe the kid was also turning tricks with him?
Rumors are that there will be a lot more bodies uncovered in this area. The victim was lucky to escape with his life. Do not meet people from the Internet in real life, period.
