Alexander Suker, 42, was contracted with the city and county of Los Angeles to house and feed up to 600 homeless people, but was accused of misusing tens of millions of dollars to live a luxurious life. Exclusive Fox video shows the federal agents’ early-morning bust at the LA mansion. Suker was arrested, and his $125,000 Land Rover was seized by law enforcement. The feds say Suker defrauded the city and county of LA out of $23,000,000 for not only his mansion and car, but a second home in Greece, luxury vacations, designer clothes, and private schools. Speaker 1: He was living the high life while the people suffering, homeless on the streets with no shelter, no food. They're living out in the streets. People are literally dying, and this guy is out vacationing, buying homes, buying Range Rovers, and going shopping. Speaker 0: Prosecutors say Suker was supposed to provide three nutritional meals a day to the homeless, but during one inspection, Suker only had canned beans and ramen noodles on hand. The feds say Suker lied about various aspects of abundant blessings, including fake vendors, facilities and the homeless actually getting meals. The US Attorney's Office in LA says they are actively investigating at least 12 other similar fraud cases here in California. First Assistant US Attorney Bill Asele says there's a tremendous amount of fraud in this state and that today's bust of one man who misused $23,000,000 alone may show how little oversight there is. Speaker 1: California was pushing this money out quickly. A lot of money went out the door, with frankly very little vetting, very little checks and balances, and, he's one of the individuals that got it. Speaker 0: The suspect is scheduled to make his first appearance later today. He faces up to twenty years if convicted on a federal case. The local district attorney is also planning on prosecuting.

Two MS 13 gang members, Miguel Alvarez Flores and Diego Hernandez Rivera, are accused of killing a 15-year-old girl in a satanic ritual. Police found evidence of underage girls being kept in their apartment. A 14-year-old girl reported being kidnapped, drugged, sexually assaulted, and tattooed by Alvarez Flores. Another girl named Genesis was also in the apartment. The suspects are reported to be in the country illegally and have been reported to Homeland Security.

Good morning, and thank you for being here. We need your help to identify additional victims of sexual assault in Montgomery County. Eduardo Valdivia, 40, from Gaithersburg and a supervisory special agent with the FBI, was arrested and charged with multiple counts of second-degree rape, sexual contact, and assault. He is currently held without bond. The charges involve incidents starting in February 2024, where Valdivia, posing as Lalo Brown, contacted victims under the pretense of modeling opportunities. During a photo shoot, one victim was sexually assaulted and subsequently coerced with threats of legal action. We have been investigating this case for over three weeks, leading to Valdivia's arrest. We urge anyone who may have been victimized to come forward. I am available for any questions.

Griffith, identified in the proceeding as McGriff, faces charges including 13 counts of first-degree murder, two counts of second-degree murder, and various additional counts such as robbery and arson related to the September 8 slaying of an elderly couple. A body camera statement from the defendant is introduced, in which he says, "I'll admit it. I killed them. I burnt those Don't matter to me, though. I admit to doing it." Prosecutors present surveillance footage appearing to show Frank in his final moments, desperately attempting to deter McGriff from entering his home after McGriff claimed he was lost and needed help charging his phone. The narrative provided by prosecutors indicates that Griffith/McGriff chose one door at first, and that door’s occupant shut it in response. Prosecutors describe a five-hour period during which McGriff terrorized the elderly couple. During that time, he tied up Mister Olton in the basement and stabbed him. He attempted to have money transferred into his own account, but the bank denied the request. Additionally, the defendant allegedly attempted to set Frank Holden on fire to conceal evidence of the crime, though the arson attempt did not succeed in spreading. McGriff then tied Maureen Holden to a chair upstairs in the living room, and prosecutors assert that he stranded her to death in that location. The narrative continues with the claim that Griffith/McGriff set the living room on fire before escaping with the couple’s phones and credit cards, which he used to embark on a shopping spree. Police later located the defendant three days after the incident, in Times Square. The sequence presented by prosecutors paints a picture of sustained terror over the five-hour window, including kidnapping, stabbing, arson attempts intended to mask the crime, and the desecration of the couple’s home and belongings before the burglary of their financial resources. The case ties these actions together with the charges of murder, robbery, and arson, detailing the escalation from initial contact at the door to the violent confrontation inside the home, the violent acts against Mr. Olton and Mrs. Holden, and the subsequent attempt to conceal and benefit financially from the crime.

Lawrence Cotton Powell, 19, and Anthony Taylor, 18, are now charged with assaulting Levine. Powell was stomping on Levine’s head; Levine got up briefly, but the crowd chased him down again, and they continued to attack him on the ground and then robbed him of his sneakers and his watch. The group then walked toward the location of another crime within minutes. Edward Corristine, a 19-year-old Doge employee working in administration, was walking a young woman to her car in the 1400 Block Of Swan Street Northwest when approximately 10 suspects approached. He pushed the young woman into the car to protect her, then was attacked by multiple suspects who punched him repeatedly, causing significant injuries. They got him to the ground, and while they did so, they demanded the car from the woman inside the car who had already locked the car. They were banging on the car and pulling at the car door, trying to open it and telling the woman to hand over the keys. The woman was able to lock the car door, preventing entry. A Metropolitan Police Department officer on patrol witnessed the suspects assaulting Corristine as he lay on the ground next to the car. The juveniles fled, but within a short period, two 15-year-olds were arrested and taken into the family court by the attorney general’s office. Significant about this case is Lawrence Cotton Powell’s history. Powell is charged with robbery, first-degree robbery, for which he faces 15 years in prison, and assault with intent to commit robbery for another 15 years. He is also charged with robbery for Edward Corristine for 15 years, assault with intent to commit robbery for another 15 years, and attempted carjacking for 5 years. Powell’s background: on April 3, Powell was sentenced for a felony attempted robbery. The office asked for jail time, but Judge McClain, a judge in the criminal part of Superior Court with no criminal background, granted probation despite the felony attempted robbery conviction. Within 31 days, by May 4, Powell reoffends and is rearrested while on probation, charged with simple assault and possession of a prohibited weapon. On May 4, the office again asked that probation be revoked. On May 16, Judge McClain released Powell, telling him to be a good boy. On July 24, he is sentenced on one of the two misdemeanors he is charged with, and again the office asked for jail time after victimizing yet another person. On July 25, another judge suspended his sentence and decided he should be on probation. After a felony attempted robbery conviction, after a violation of probation, after a second crime and a second conviction, after no compliance with CSOSA, the judges say do better, and they let him go. And within ten days, he is involved again with Ethan Levine and Edward Corristine. The co-defendant in this case is Anthony Taylor. He is charged with the same crimes. He is from Maryland, 18 years old. We are unaware of any history as it relates to him.

A man with a gun stole watches from a group at a Williamsburg restaurant and another man's watch in Manhattan. At a Chinese restaurant in Williamsburg, two men held up the entire place with a gun. Police suspect newly arrived migrants are involved in these crimes, which are hard to track. Perpetrators with multiple arrests in the last 3 months may have entered the country at the same time.

A man heard someone yelling to stop and tackle another person who was running away. Without hesitation, he joined in and tackled the person. During the tackle, he noticed the person's weapon fall to the ground. He and another person held the suspect down while calling for the police. They held him for about 30 seconds until help arrived.

Good morning, Amy. During the investigation, deputies found that the kids involved were aged 12 to 14 and attempted to rob a man at gunpoint. At least three of the kids were shot, with one in critical condition. When deputies arrived, they discovered one child with multiple gunshot wounds, who was taken to a trauma center. Two others were also found injured but are stable. The suspected shooter, believed to be the man they tried to rob, returned to the scene and surrendered. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots nearby, and one individual armed himself before checking the situation. The incident stemmed from an attempted aggravated robbery where the juveniles displayed firearms, prompting the adult male to defend himself.

Two people were killed in this intersection at second admission by a career criminal who's been charged with 91 felonies. Troy McAllister has been charged with everything from armed robbery to drug dealing to murdering two people on New Year's Eve twenty twenty. he got high, stole a car, t boned another car with the stolen vehicle, and ended up killing two innocent bystanders, Honoko Abe, 27 years old, and Elizabeth Pratt, 60 years old. Public defender Mano Raju is advocating for diversion, which is an alternative pathway in the criminal justice system that's meant to divert people away from jail and towards treatment. But here's the problem. Troy McAllister does not need treatment. Troy McAllister needs to be behind bars. We're holding a rally this Friday morning at 08:30 in front of judge Beggart's courtroom demanding that Troy McAllister is not given diversion but instead put in jail.

Two of the three suspects charged with beating a white teen who was walking with his African American girlfriend appeared in court. 18-year-old Dontae Lee and his brother, 16-year-old Antoine Blackman, received a sentence of six years followed by two and a half years of post-release supervision for their role in the gang assault of 19-year-old Brian Milligan. Milligan was attacked last August and suffered a broken jaw, broken teeth, and a serious head injury. Milligan's mother believes he was targeted because of his interracial relationship. The brothers tried to blame their 12-year-old cousin for encouraging them to retaliate against Milligan. The cousin has youthful offender status and is being handled in family court. Milligan still suffers from memory loss.

Baltimore City Police report that four children and an adult man are facing charges related to an armed robbery and a stolen car. Police responded to a call on East Northern Parkway where a victim reported being robbed by four children at a bus stop. The children then entered a car that was later located on Gorsuch Avenue. This vehicle had been reported stolen from Falls Road on Friday night. Five individuals exited the car and were apprehended by police. The suspects include a 32-year-old man who was injured while attempting to flee, a 10-year-old boy, and two 13-year-old girls, and a 14-year-old boy.

Days ago, a former member of the Doge staff was savagely beaten by a band of roving thugs after defending a young woman from an attempted carjacking. He was left dripping in blood. He thought he was dead with a broken nose and concussion. Can't believe that he's alive. He can't believe it. In June, a 21 year old congressional intern was tragically killed after being hit by a stray bullet in a drive by shooting. A former Trump administration official named Mike Gill, fantastic person, was murdered last year in cold blood in a carjacking blocks away from the White House. We all knew him. Great person.

Two men, Alexander Arnaez and Kevin Sanabria, are in custody, charged with kidnapping, robbery, and attempted murder after allegedly kidnapping a woman from her Burien apartment complex. The men reportedly used a power drill on the woman's hands to access her cell phone and bank accounts, and threatened to kill her and her family. They drove her to the mountains near Snoqualmie Pass, forced her over a barrier, and shot her. The woman played dead, and after the men left, she flagged down help. Investigators say the victim and witnesses expressed extreme fear of retaliation, noting one of the men may have ties to a Venezuelan gang. People in the apartment complex reportedly heard the screaming during the kidnapping but were afraid to speak up.

The exchange centers on a confrontation in a public/Louisiana parish building during a first amendment audit conducted by Justin (Speaker 0). Justin explains that he entered a public area and was subjected to aggressive behavior from a man who grabbed his belongings, attempted a headlock, and threw Justin’s phone. Justin asserts that this occurred in front of a deputy, who did not intervene. He claims the man (Ellis Booth) took his phone, assaulted him, and tossed it across the parking lot, while the deputy “did nothing.” Justin emphasizes that he was having a polite conversation when Booth acted aggressively, grabbed his property, and threw his phone multiple times. He argues that if he had done any of these actions, he would be in cuffs, and he questions why Booth has not been arrested. He challenges the deputy’s handling of the incident, insisting that the deputy witnessed the events and should have acted. He also claims the deputy’s inaction contradicts the duty to protect the public and enforce the law, noting he has a large social media following and intends to publicize what he perceives as misconduct. The dialogue includes several attempts to obtain formal statements and to follow proper procedure. Justin asks for a statement from the deputy who witnessed the incident, and for access to video footage (body cam) and other evidence. He asserts that the deputy’s eyewitness account should be sufficient to pursue charges, and he questions why extra steps or warrants are being pursued if the deputy clearly witnessed the events. He also mentions he has filed a Freedom of Information Act request for the body cam footage. Speaker 4, Detective Adams of the Cattle Parish Sheriff’s Office, enters the conversation and tries to mediate. He explains that a new process is necessary: a written statement and a signed affidavit from Justin before any warrants or arrests can proceed, since there is no direct on-site arrest of Booth by the acting officer. Detective Adams clarifies that if a judge signs a warrant based on the deputy’s statements and Justin’s signed affidavit, Booth could be arrested. He notes that the deputy did not witness the exact moment of the phone being thrown in Justin’s hands, but did witness the assault and the destruction of property. He emphasizes following chain-of-command and needing a judge’s warrant to proceed. The discussion includes comparisons of how officers would be treated if the roles were reversed. Justin argues that the officer’s standards should be the same regardless of whether the person is a private citizen or a Homeland Security employee. Detective Adams explains that the Homeland Security director (Beeson) was not present to arrest on-site and that Booth’s arrest is tied to the body camera and the deputy’s written report. The exchange touches on past incidents, including a controversial encounter involving a black officer and other officers, which Detective Adams says he plans to address separately with superiors. Towards the end, it is confirmed that Booth was arrested previously (yesterday) for simple battery and criminal damage to private property, but the battery charge was kept separate from the damage charge after Justin notes his phone’s condition. Booth bonded out at $1,255 cash and would have a court date set by the district attorney. The district attorney asks Justin to forward any video and his written statement. Detective Adams states he will present the materials to a judge, and if a warrant is signed, Booth will be arrested. Beeson is identified as the online security director who previously attended the incident, and there is a discussion about obtaining more video and verifying all witnesses’ statements. In sum, the transcript captures Justin’s allegation of police inaction during a visible assault and property destruction, the procedural requirement for statements and affidavits to pursue warrants, and the subsequent administrative steps that led to Booth’s prior arrest and ongoing cooperation with the district attorney’s office.

Hilliard officers responded to a store where Mohammed Kamara allegedly attacked a 60-year-old woman in the restroom. Store cameras reportedly showed Kamara following the victim into the restroom. According to police, after the victim exited the stall, Kamara grabbed her throat, slammed her against the wall, and covered her mouth. The victim screamed, alerting her family. Her son called 911 and stated that he had to force Kamara off of his mother. The family stated that Kamara was a random person and that they did not know him. They heard the victim screaming for help from the restroom.

The court heard about the horrific torture Mahogany Jackson endured, starting with a beating at Brandon Pope's home. She was then sexually assaulted at gunpoint, handcuffed, beaten, and pistol-whipped at a second location. Her family was emotional during the hearing, with DA Carr noting the long road to justice. Five out of eight suspects were present due to legal procedures. The suspects demanded Jackson's phone password, promising to release her if she complied, but they killed her regardless. Carr shared his conversation with the family.

Speaker 0: 'Yeah. I hate Why is that? I was raped. No one helped me. When was this? I don't remember. I was raped, no one helped me.' An ambulance is coming. Later, Speaker 2 states: 'The suspect was taken into custody without further incident and booked into the St. Clair County Jail.' He's 'facing several serious charges including criminal damage to government property, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, and aggravated battery with a motor vehicle.' 'According to officials, the crash caused more than $10,000 in damage to the patrol SUV' and 'no one was hurt, not even the officer who was nearly pinned between the two cars.' 'Jennings is being held without bond...' 'The department called the incident a deliberate and dangerous attack on an officer who was just doing his job.' 'This is one of those cases that makes you shake your head. A completely senseless act that could have ended in tragedy.' Let us know in the comments what you think is an appropriate sentence for this case, and as always, stay safe, stay smart, and we'll see you in the next video.

Today we announce charges against Lawrence Cotton Powell, 19, and Anthony Taylor, 18, for assaulting Ethan Levine and for related crimes involving Edward Corristine. Lawrence Cotton Powell is charged with first-degree robbery (fifteen years), assault with intent to commit robbery (fifteen years), and robbery (fifteen years) for the attack on Edward Corristine, along with assault with intent to commit robbery (fifteen years) and attempted carjacking (five years). The incidents described show Powell stomping on Levine’s head; Levine rose briefly but was chased, downed again, and the group continued the assault while Levine was on the ground, then robbed him of his sneakers and watch. Minutes later, the group attacked Edward Corristine while he was escorting a young woman to her car; Corristine was punched repeatedly and brought to the ground. The suspects demanded the car from the woman inside the locked car, banging on the door and urging her to surrender the keys; a Metropolitan Police Department officer on patrol witnessed the assault as the suspects attacked Corristine. The juveniles fled, and two 15-year-olds were later arrested and taken into the family court by the Maryland Attorney General’s Office. Powell’s history is highlighted as significant. On April 3, Powell was sentenced for felony attempted robbery. The office sought jail time, but Judge McClain, a Superior Court criminal-part judge with no criminal background, granted probation despite the felony conviction. Within 31 days, Powell reoffended and was rearrested on charges of simple assault and possession of a prohibited weapon. On May 4, the office sought probation revocation. On May 16, Judge McClain released Powell again, telling him to be a good boy. On July 24, Powell was sentenced for one of the two misdemeanors he faced, with the office again requesting jail time after victimizing another person. On July 25, another judge suspended Powell’s sentence and placed him on probation. After a felony attempted robbery conviction, a violation of probation, another crime, another conviction, and noncompliance with conditions of supervision, the judges allegedly told him to do better and released him. Ten days later, Powell committed acts against Levine and Corristine. Anthony Taylor, Powell’s co-defendant, is charged with the same offenses as Powell: robbery, assault with intent to commit robbery, and related counts. Taylor is from Maryland and is 18 years old; there is no additional history provided about him in this briefing. The speaker extends thanks to the Metropolitan Police Department for their hard work and dedication in pursuing these cases.

Police allege a history of crime for an individual, including crimes committed the same day as an incident involving Scott Dwight Havermelt. In April, he faced charges for breaking into Osuna Elementary School, pleading guilty to one charge and receiving one year probation. Thirteen days later, he allegedly stole a car, a crime linked to others from May 12 and 29 in court documents. On May 12, police say he assaulted four people. On May 29, the same day Overbay, Messiah Hayes, and William Garcia allegedly crashed into Scott Dwight Habermill, Overbay also allegedly shot from a car and at a building. An order of release for Overbay was filed last August, but the reasons for his release are unknown due to sealed juvenile court records.

Speaker 0: Who has been arrested 111 times since August 2023. Arrests included 55 car thefts, instilling from cars 45 times. At one point, police found multiple guns on the teen and took a phone as evidence. They say they found various Google searches on it, including what is the charge for killing an officer? Is police murder a charge? And what is capital murder? Police say the 15 year old was most released again in September. You just can't just say we're going to let you back out to your mom or to your home if the home is broken without holding the home accountable. There's no accountability, right? Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a problem. They're focusing on rehabilitation over accountability. But I love that he used the word accountability because that's what's needed. But on top of that, what are we gonna do? Are gonna wait until this kid kills somebody and then decide that enough's enough? Him getting arrested a 100 times wasn't enough to seriously do something about it. Not a 101, not a 110, not even a 111. He's back out. This is a problem and something needs to be done about this problem before this individual seriously harms someone. There is no way someone should be getting arrested 111 times and still be able just to be walking around free. No. Governments need to start doing something about this now. We've already had individuals die at the hands of people who should not have been free. Again, there needs to be something done about this. Absolutely wild to see that a 111 times. That's crazy. You need to start bringing attention to this and working to do something about it. Also just a reminder I have a free email newsletter where I give you morning updates about what's going on. It's a great place to get direct information from me and I cannot be censored there. The link's in my profile, just go there click the link you'll see the screen right here drop your email in hit subscribe and you'll be good to go. Anyway that's all I got for now. We'll see you in the next one.

Speaker 0: On 08/03/2025 at about 02:53AM, Sunday morning at the U Street corridor and Fourteenth Street, a very popular hangout nightlife area, Ethan Levine, a 22 year old, and several of his friends were standing outside of Sonoco gas station when they were approached by a large group of teens, individuals who confronted them and began to assault them. Lawrence Cotton Powell, who is 19 years of age, along with Anthony Taylor, who is 18 years of age, are now charged with assaulting Levine. Cotton Powell was stomping on Levine's head. Levine was able to get up momentarily, but the crowd chased him and got him down again. They continued to attack Levine while he was on the ground and then proceeded to rob him of his sneakers and his watch. The group then, after the robbery and assault of Ethan Levine, walked in the direction of where another crime occurred within minutes. You have heard of this crime. Edward Corstein, a 19 year old Doge person who was working in the administration, was walking a young woman to her car when he was approached in the 1400 block Of Swan Street Northwest. Approximately 10 suspects approached him and as they did, he pushed the young woman into the car and he was protecting her from the group before he was then attacked by multiple suspects who then punched him repeatedly causing significant injuries to him. They got him on the ground. And as they were doing so, they demanded the car from the woman who was inside the car and had already locked the car. They were banging on the car. They were pulling the car door, trying to get the car open, and we're telling the woman in the car to hand over the keys. And the woman was, as I said, able to lock the car door so they were unable to gain entry. And it was fortuitous that someone from the Metropolitan Police Department was on patrol. He happened to pull onto the block, and he witnessed the suspects actually assaulting Coracine who was on the ground lying next to the car. The juveniles fled, but within a short period of time, two 15 year olds were arrested and they were taken into the family court by the attorney general's office.

Two teenage girls accused Jesse Mack Butler of serious crimes, and the state could have charged him with more severe offenses, including attempted murder, but the case proceeded with the charges ultimately pursued. Details of what Butler did: - A girl identified as LS (16 at the time) dated Butler for about three months starting in January. She said Butler repeatedly raped and attempted to rape her and strangled her if she refused. She needed neck surgery from the strangulation, and her doctor said she would have died if the strangulation lasted another 30 seconds. She said she gave in after he threatened to kill her and her family. - A separate affidavit describes a relationship in March with another 16-year-old girl identified as KS, lasting six months. KS said Butler was aggressive and violent and that she went along with unwanted sex to avoid further harm. She said Butler strangled her when she refused, and he recorded himself strangling her until she passed out. Police later found that video on Butler’s phone. Legal progression: - Butler pleaded not guilty to all charges initially. For reasons not explained in the report, the DA’s office struck a deal to change his status from adult to youthful offender. - In July, a judge signed off on the youthful offender designation, and in August Butler changed his plea to no contest, meaning he acknowledged there was evidence to convict him. - There were ten counts initially; by August, there was one additional count for violating a protective order, bringing the total to 11 counts. Sentencing and sentencing plan: - On the same day that the 11th count was added, Butler was sentenced to 78 years in prison. - As a youthful offender, he was entitled to a rehabilitation plan, drafted by the Oklahoma Office of Juvenile Affairs and presented to the court. The plan requires daily check-ins, weekly counseling, a curfew, no social media, and 150 hours of community service. - The plan is to stay in effect until Butler turns 19, which is less than a year from the time described in the report. Overall arc: - The case involved graphic and violent abuse of two teenage girls, including repeated rape and strangulation, with one girl recording a strangling incident on video. - Despite the severity of the crimes and the length of the sentence, the youthful offender designation leads to a rehabilitation-focused plan with supervised restrictions and community service lasting until Butler’s 19th birthday.

Breaking news on two parallel incidents on the Upper East Side and nearby areas. Upper East Side case: - The suspect in a string of attacks on Asian women has been identified as Terrell Shaw (25). He was described by police as randomly attacking Asian women and was believed to be hiding around Madison Avenue and East 66th Street. - Shaw’s body was found late Monday afternoon inside an elevator shaft at 766 Madison Avenue, hanging from a noose. Investigators spent weeks warning residents to be on alert for him. - Neighbors and tenants reported repeated encounters with a man matching Shaw’s description, including someone seen breaking into offices and other suspicious activity. Karen Bennett, who works on the 5th floor, said she and coworkers were in regular contact with him and had several run-ins; she provided surveillance photos of a man she believes is Shaw. - Police notes and online posts linked to Shaw reveal a violent manifesto and threats. In one blog entry, he ranted about harming Asian women, writing, “I will hit over a million Asian women in the face with a stick. Will change history. Every Asian woman by herself must be hit in the face. I may even take a photo before hitting them. The reason is because I don’t think Asian women like me.” He warned that he would take his own life, stating, “actually, I’ve already tied a noose to the bottom of an elevator, and I’m going to wait until someone pushes a button.” - Residents reported they were unaware a body had been found in the elevator shaft; police presence was noted earlier in the day, but residents said they were not told the reason. Con Edison incident: - A Con Edison electrical engineer is under arrest for allegedly stabbing a mother on the Upper East Side. The 36-year-old woman, who is the mother of his child, was stabbed several times around 2:30 p.m. She is in serious but stable condition. - Shortly after the attack on the mother, the suspect allegedly stabbed two coworkers at Con Edison’s Irving Place headquarters. The injuries to the coworkers are not considered life-threatening. Summary of key facts: - Tyrell/Terrell Shaw: identified as the suspect in the Asian-women-attacks case; body found in a Madison Avenue elevator shaft, hanging from a noose; warnings issued in the area; troubling online writings and threats attributed to him. - Con Edison incident: male engineer (identity not specified in the excerpt) accused of stabbing a mother on the Upper East Side; later stabbed two coworkers at Irving Place; victims’ conditions vary from serious but stable to non-life-threatening injuries.

A man contracted by the city and county of Los Angeles to house and feed up to 600 homeless people was arrested for allegedly misusing tens of millions of dollars to live a luxurious life. 42-year-old Alexander Suker was taken into custody as exclusive Fox video shows the early-morning federal bust at the LA mansion. Suker’s $125,000 Land Rover was seized, and authorities say he defrauded the city and county of Los Angeles out of $23,000,000, covering a mansion and car, a second home in Greece, luxury vacations, designer clothes, and private schools. Prosecutors say Suker was supposed to provide three nutritional meals a day to the homeless, but during one inspection he only had canned beans and ramen noodles on hand. The FBI says Suker lied about various aspects of his supposed “abundant blessings,” including fake vendors, facilities, and the homeless actually receiving meals. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles notes they are actively investigating at least 12 other similar fraud cases in California. First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Asele says there’s a tremendous amount of fraud in this state and that today’s bust of one man who misused $23,000,000 alone may show how little oversight there is. California was pushing this money out quickly, with a lot of money going out the door, Asele adds, with frankly very little vetting and very few checks and balances, and Suker is one of the individuals who benefited. The suspect is scheduled to make his first appearance later today. He faces up to twenty years if convicted on the federal case. The local district attorney is also planning on prosecuting.
