[NYPOST]An Indiana teenager last seen early Monday — who was believed to have been in "extreme danger" — was found safe, and the man she was with has been arrested, according to officials.
Emily Barger, 14, was located late Wednesday in Attica, Indiana — over three hours north of her Georgetown home, officials said.
The girl was found after police received a tip that she "was staying in a shed behind a residence in Attica," the police department said in a blurb.
Shawn Barger, who identifies on social media as Emily’s father,
Eh? Is he or isn’t he? That’s the Who of the junior journalist toolkit.
previously said he believed his daughter was with a man. He wrote on Facebook on Wednesday that authorities "got" the guy.
Police nabbed that person, identified as 18-year-old Terry Ross, while he was walking in Attica. He has been charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
The Floyd County Sheriff’s Office said the investigation in Attica was ongoing and that the police department would continue to work with local partners regarding potential charges.
Floyd County Chief Deputy Jeff Firkins previously told The Post that Barger reported his daughter missing, and officials said she was last seen around 1 a.m. Monday at her family’s home.
Barger wrote on Facebook earlier this week that he discovered Monday morning his daughter’s bed was empty, her window was cracked and her cellphone had been left behind.

[Blaze] A Georgia father of five was found dead, rolled up in plastic and carpet on the side of the road after vanishing on a business trip in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
42-year-old Nathan Millard from Covington, Georgia, went missing after he visited Happy's Irish Pub across from his hotel on the night of February 22. Millard's wife told WSB-TV that he had gone to a college basketball game before heading to the bar.
His body was later found on the side of the road behind a funeral home six miles away from the last place he was seen. He was wrapped in plastic inside a carpet.
Police said there were no signs of blunt force trauma or gunshot wounds on the body. According to a preliminary report, the medical examiner found no external or internal trauma on the body. A final autopsy report will include toxicology findings.
"We don't have any indication that there was any foul play involved," said Captain Kevin Heinz of the violent crimes unit of the Baton Rouge Police. "We are looking into how he ended up where he was."

"We don't have any indication that there was any foul play involved"
Seriously?
Is it a thing in Baton Rouge to completely roll oneself up in plastic/carpet and meditate?

I assume that the officer is saying that the victim over partied, died and was moved from where he died because the party host did not want to be inconvenienced. In that scenario, lack of foul play did not mean that there was lack of illegal activity.

The Cleopatra meets Caesar reenactment got out of hand.
[Blaze] The scheduled execution of a Texas man on death row was delayed by a judge after the inmate's attorneys say he gouged out both of his eyes due to mental illness, each eye on a separate occasion, according to ABC 6 Columbus. The prisoner's attorneys say his reason for eating the second eye was to ensure that the government could not hear his thoughts.
A man named Andre Thomas was scheduled to be executed after fatally stabbing his estranged wife in 2004 and cutting out the hearts of their 4-year-old and 13-month-old children.
Thomas told police that God told him to commit the murders and that his family members were all demons.
Definitely nuts.
Thomas' attorney, Maurie Levin, believes that an execution would indeed violate the Constitution, saying that "guiding this blind psychotic man to the gurney for execution offends our sense of humanity and serves no legitimate purpose."
However, J. Kerye Ashmore, with the Grayson County District Attorney’s Office, disagrees. Ashmore says that faith leaders and others asking for clemency are simply missing key facts on the case and have not read any of the prisoner's mental evaluations.

If ignorance of the law is no excuse, why is insanity? And when someone insane kills people, and stays insane, is there really a point to keeping them locked up. We put down rabid animals, we need to do the same with rabid humans.

My only reservations would be with the argument that putting someone down is the humane thing to do. Trudeau has now extended that argument in Canada to where they are encouraging mentally ill folks to whack themselves and will provide assistance. That is now the Canadian solution to veteran’s issues. They have just extended things so that they can assist a minor with suicide without parental consent. From the sound of it, a school counselor can help your kid with suicide during study hall and send you an email when it’s done. In summary, I am not against the death penalty; I am against the government killing for humane reasons.

^ so the commies in Canada now support post-natal abortion and if the women won't carry it out, the state will.

It is voluntary at this point, but they are talking about the high cost of treating mental illness on their socialized medical system. That is a trail along which voluntary becomes mandatory like the countries in Europe that off their elders.

I don't support Euthanasia. Removing someone that is a clear and violent danger with a track record of murder (Many times more than one and quite horrific) is quite different than saying "Oh you're inconvenient, we should put you down."

If you rationale is that he earned it, I can’t say he didn’t. Nobody wants government in charge of mercy killing. Society will become a mercy factory like our northern neighbors are doing.

I'm not advocating mercy killing, I'm talking about removing proven dangers who are still dangerous. Still a huge difference. We don't put down rabid animals as a mercy, but because of the ongoing constant threat they are.

If the State begins to identify mental illness in people, anybody supporting the political opposition would be tagged 'ill'. And EU-thanized! 😬 Oooerrr!

Thank you. Beyond a certain degree of seriousness, at least, you try the crime, not the criminal.

[NYPOST] An impromptu trip to Hungary resulted in two friends spending their vacation over 500 miles away from their intended destination.
Sophie Alice, shared the misadventures she took with her friend, Ben Kennedy, after he tried to surprise her with a trip to Budapest, Hungary but accidentally bought plane tickets to Bucharest, Romania.
The pair realized the mistake when they were in line to board their flight as the gate sign read "Bucharest," the capital of Romania instead of Budapest, the capital of Hungary.
In the video captioned "When you thought you had booked flights to Budapest," a Ryanair boarding sign displays "Bucharest 08:00" while the duo mouth the word "s—t" several times with the voice-over of the video.
Replying to various commenters asking if they did go to Romania, Alice responded with an enthusiastic yes.
"Yes we went, of course we went, it was great," Alice said

A number of years ago, there was a IT guy who flew back from London to LAX, and needed to make a connector to Oakland (CA), and the BA flight crew mistakenly booked him thru to Auckland. As in New Zealand. Three days later he got home.

I'd be happy to visit either one, though given the choice I think I'd want to go hoof around the olde Siege of Szigetvar location.
Sounds like they were too, other than the PITA and costs of having hotel reservations etc. at the other Bucharest.
[NYPOST] Controversial football star Colin Kaepernick ...Formerly a petulant quarterback for the San Francisco Giants, now looking for a job. He was willing to stand up for his principles by kneeling during the national anthem, which he had every right to do, but not willing to take the consequences, which he apparently thought shouldn't apply to him... accused his white adoptive parents of perpetuating racism in a new interview.
The former NFL star told CBS reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel... he struggled growing up in a "problematic" household, a throughline he details in his upcoming graphic novel, "Change the Game." graphic novel, cuz his fans can't actually, ya know, READ
"I know my parents loved me, but there were still very problematic things that I went through," Kaepernick said.
"It was important to show that, no, this can happen in your own home, and how we move forward collectively while addressing the racism that is being perpetuated."
The graphic novel tells the story of Kaepernick’s journey from high school into his storied athletic career that heavily centers around his lack of choice in his future. His parents, particularly, tried to steer him in a direction they thought was best, which led to several fights between them and their adopted son.

Thank you for taking me in and giving me a home when no one else wanted me. Thank you for providing an example of a loving, cohesive family unit. Thanks for attempting to teach me right from wrong. Thank you for feeding me three hots every day. Thank you for trips to the dentist and doctor. Thank you for putting a roof over my head and sending me to school and paying for my college education.

So bad that he got great college schooling, and made $$millions in the NFL.
Didn't these so called bad parents cross racial lines to seek out adopt him, provide him with the best of the best, after he was abandoned by his own black community due his birth circumstances?
Btw: how much of those $$ millions did he put back into the black community?

"Black victim-hood- a noun", in verb form "Markling", as in "she was seen Markleling on CBS", the default position when the look-at-me need surfaces for a mediocre, over-hyped former celebrity.

Why is he always called a football star?
IIRC, San Francisco was one of the first teams that really emphasized the 'modern' RPO (Run Pass Offense) in the NFL. Kaepernick had inflated numbers because the defenses weren't ready for the RPO --but the next year they were and he started his well deserved slide into irrelevance.
[Gateway] A Chinese military rocket disintegrated over Texas on Wednesday, USNI News reported.
The rocket, which was launched from China, delivered military surveillance satellites to space in June and made its way back to earth on Wednesday over the United States.
The 8,000 pound rocket made its way back to earth on Wednesday over Texas.
The debris field could be miles wide and several hundred feet long, USNI News reported.
USNI News reported:
The second stage of a Chinese rocket that delivered a trio of military surveillance satellites to space in June disintegrated over Texas on Wednesday, USNI News has learned.
The four-ton component of a Chang Zheng 2D ’Long March’ rocket punched through the atmosphere on Wednesday over Texas at 17,000 miles per hour and disintegrated, two defense officials confirmed to USNI News on Thursday.
U.S. military officials have yet to find any debris from the rocket stage, however, USNI News understands the debris field could be miles wide and several hundred miles long.
According to North American Aerospace Defense Command satellite tracking data, the stage was a piece of space junk in low Earth orbit before it made its unscheduled descent.
Based on the NORAD tracking data, the stage belonged to a mission that delivered three military electronic signals surveillance satellites that were meant to collect signals data from the South China Sea, astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell with the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics told USNI New on Thursday.
The rocket took off from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center on June 23 in central China.

'U.S. military officials have yet to find any debris'. I guess balloons are easier. 6 high security trash bags full picked up from South Carolina balloon(maybe North Carolina, I don't remember the shoot down location but a beach area N or S). Need to know perhaps more accurate. Nothing to see here citizen, move along.
[An Nahar] North Korea ...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche... on Thursday fired a short-range ballistic missile toward waters off its western coast, South Korea's military said.
The launch came as the United States and South Korea prepare to hold their biggest combined military training exercises in years next week to counter the threat of North Korea's nuclear arsenal, which leader Kim Pudge Jong-un ...the overweight, pouty-looking hereditary potentate of North Korea. Pudge appears to believe in his own divinity, but has yet to produce any loaves and fishes, so his subjects remain malnourished... has aggressively expanded in recent years despite his country's deepening economic isolation and pandemic-related difficulties.
The South's Joint Chiefs of Staff said the missile was fired at around 6:20 p.m. from an area near the western coastal city of Nampo. There were no immediate assessments of how far it flew or where it landed.
The South Korean military strengthened its surveillance of North Korean activities while maintaining "full readiness" in close coordination with its ally, the U.S., the Joint Chiefs of Staff said. The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command said the launch did not pose an "immediate threat to U.S. personnel or territory, or to our allies" but still highlighted the destabilizing impact of North Korea's nuclear weapons and missile program.
The launch came after Kim's powerful sister warned Tuesday that her country is ready to take "quick, overwhelming action" against the United States and South Korea as the allies expand their military training to cope with a growing North Korean nuclear threat.
Coming off a record year in missile testing, North Korea has conducted more weapons demonstrations to 2023 including test launches of an intercontinental ballistic missile, short-range missiles and a purported long-range cruise missile system in recent weeks.
Experts say North Korea with its escalated testing activity and threats is trying to claim an ability to conduct nuclear strikes in South Korea and the U.S. mainland. Kim, who sees his nuclear arsenal as his strongest guarantee of survival, is trying to force the United States into accepting the North as a nuclear power and wants to negotiate badly needed economic concessions from a position of strength, analysts say.
Diplomacy between the U.S. and North Korea has stalled since 2019 because of disagreements over an easing of crippling U.S.-led sanctions against the North in exchange for steps by the North to wind down its nuclear weapons and missile programs.
Last week, the South Korean and U.S. militaries announced they will conduct computer-simulated command post training on March 13-23 and will resume their largest springtime field exercises, which were last held in 2018.
The United States has also recently sent advanced warplanes, including the B-1B and B-52 long-range bombers, to train with South Korean aircraft in a show of strength, triggering protests from North Korea, which describes the allies' joint drills as invasion rehearsals.

Each missile fired is the equivalent value of rice to feed 10,000 to 100,000 starving North Koreans for a year. The Kims' would rather drill holes in the ocean than see "their", as in personal property, people fed.

[Breitbart] Thousands of women in Turkey defied an official ban to hold an International Women’s Day march in Istanbul on Wednesday.
The march, which also criticized the government of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for its poor response to the deadly February 6 earthquakes, lasted about two hours before the police deployed tear gas and detained at least 30 of the participants.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
