University of Cincinnati Police Officer Ray Tensing was indicted Wednesday on a murder charge for fatally shooting Samuel DuBose during a traffic stop July 19.
It’s the first time a police officer in the city has been charged with murder for killing someone while on duty.
Video from the officer’s body camera shows a routine traffic stop turning suddenly violent when DuBose leans toward the passenger seat and Tensing fires a single shot into his head. DuBose did not appear to be belligerent or aggressive before the officer fired.
“It’s an absolute tragedy that anyone would behave in this manner,” Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters said of the officer. “It was senseless. It’s just horrible.
“He purposefully killed him.”
Tensing, 25, faces 15 years to life in prison if he’s convicted.
The decision came after 12 Hamilton County citizens reviewed evidence all day Monday as part of a grand jury investigation into the incident, which has put the city on edge and rekindled worries about the sometimes strained relationship between police and African-Americans in Cincinnati.
UC’s campus shut down and classes were canceled Wednesday in anticipation of the announcement. Ohio Highway Patrol troopers were seen arriving on campus by late morning.

The video shows Johnson and a woman in a shoving match at a bar which escalates when the woman throws a punch at Johnson, who then strikes the woman in the face and exits the video frame.
The woman, a Florida State student, suffered several injuries to her face, according to court records. State attorney Willie Meggs will prosecute the case and decided to charge Johnson after reviewing video of the incident that was captured by security cameras inside the bar.
Johnson, a true freshman, was a four-star recruit who enrolled early at Florida State in January. He was expected to compete for the backup quarterback position.
Johnson's attorney, Jose Baez, said his client is "extremely embarrassed" and is participating in community service and faith-based programs focused on battered women, among others. A statement issued Monday by Baez did not address the alleged victim specifically.
"While it is clear from the video that De'Andre Johnson was not the initial aggressor, his family wants to take the lead in helping him learn and grow from this experience," Baez said in an emailed statement. "He is currently participating in community service, and faith-based programs focused on battered women, substance abuse, and the empowerment of children. De'Andre is extremely embarrassed by this situation and would like to express his heartfelt apologies to everyone, including those who were directly affected, Coach Fisher and his team mates, the entire Florida State University community, as well as his family and friends."
Johnson pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor charge on July 2. A court date is set for later this month.

News of singer Sean Paul’s death spread quickly earlier this week causing concern among fans across the world. However the June 2015 report has now been confirmed as a complete hoax and just the latest in a string of fake celebrity death reports. Thankfully, the singer best known for hit songs likeTemperature or Get Busy is alive and well.
UPDATE 21/06/2015 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Sean Paul death hoax spreads on Facebook
Rumors of the singer’s alleged demise gained traction on Friday after a ‘R.I.P. Sean Paul’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the Jamaican singer’s passing:
“At about 11 a.m. ET on Friday (June 19, 2015), our beloved singer Sean Paul passed away. Sean Paul was born on January 8, 1973 in Kingston. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”
Hundreds of fans immediately started writing their messages of condolence on the Facebook page, expressing their sadness that the talented 42-year-old singer was dead. And as usual, Twittersphere was frenzied over the death hoax.
Where as some trusting fans believed the post, others were immediately skeptical of the report, perhaps learning their lesson from the huge amount of fake death reports emerging about celebrities over recent months. Some pointed out that the news had not been carried on any major Jamaican network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of a singer of Sean Paul's stature would be major news across networks.
A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (81%) of respondents think those Sean Paul death rumors are not funny anymore.
Sean Paul Death Hoax Dismissed Since Singer Is ‘Alive And Well’
On Saturday (June 20) the singer's reps officially confirmed that Sean Paul is not dead. “He joins the long list of celebrities who have been victimized by this hoax. He's still alive and well, stop believing what you see on the Internet,” they said.
Some fans have expressed anger at the fake report saying it was reckless, distressing and hurtful to fans of the much loved singer. Others say this shows his extreme popularity across the globe.

A cat which went missing for 18 years was put down by a pet cruelty charity before it could be reunited with its owner because the vet 'refused to wait 20 minutes' to put it down.
Laura Rennie, 39, could barely believe it when an animal welfare officer turned up at her door to tell her the cat she lost when she was 21-years-old had been found - just 15 minutes from her home in Glasgow.
However, her joy turned to despair when a vet told her that tabby cat Toby would have to be put down, after being injured.
Ms Rennie, who has worked with animals for 16 years, was distraught when the vet told her she couldn't wait 20 minutes for her to get to the rescue centre before putting the cat to sleep.
The animal handling business owner had adopted Toby when it was just four-weeks-old after it had been abandoned, but the kitten went missing nearly a year later.
After three months of putting up posters near her house in the east end of Glasgow, Ms Rennie gave up her search for the kitten.
She said: 'I've felt every emotion you can imagine in the space of 32 hours.
'I was 20-years-old when I rescued her. She was an outdoor cat and when she was one-year-old she just never came back.
'I felt complete shock and stunned the cat had been alive.
'Then we were trying to figure out how we could integrate her into the house as my mum has a cat. I got out the cat bed.
'But then I realised she was going to get put down and I was not going to get to see her.
'It turned out quite nasty.'
The Scottish Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SSPCA) managed to contact Ms Rennie immediately after the cat was found thanks to the fact it had a microchip.
Ms Rennie said: 'Unfortunately she had been hit by a car. A chap had found her in his garden and phoned the SSPCA.'
Houston always adamantly denied she was a lesbian, but husband Bobby even expressed his own doubts in his memoir.
'The media was accusing her of having a bisexual relationship with her assistant,' he wrote. 'In Whitney's situation, the only solution was to get married and have kids.'
Crawford, who is openly gay, resigned from the superstar's production company in 2000.
Whitney and Bobby eventually split after 15 years of marriage in April 2007 and as the singer attempted to relaunch her musical career, her daughter continued to spiral out of control.
'A 17-year-old Bobbi Kristina was left to her own devices in Atlanta, where she had taken up with a hard-partying crowd, including the boy who had moved into her house three years earlier, Nick Gordon,' writes Halperin.
Not long after photos were made public of Bobbi Kristina snorting coke at two separate parties - her mother's response was to cancel her daughter's 18th birthday extravaganza and packed her off again to rehab.

Whitney and Robyn Crawford, right. The pair were extremely close prior to Whitney's marriage to Bobby Brown although the singer has always adamantly denied that she was a lesbian
Whitney died on February 11, 2012. The 48-year-old superstar accidentally drowned in a bathtub in the Beverly Hills Hotel, with the 'effects' of heart disease and cocaine cited as contributing factors.
With her mother gone, Bobbi Kristina became more and more dependant on Gordon and the pair allegedly immersed themselves in the drug scene in Atlanta where they lived.
'The crowd she hung out with was out of control,' a friend of Bobbi Kristina's told Halperin. 'The past couple of years she hung with a bunch of crazies, they were wild and reckless.'
Halperin, whose previous works include Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson and Who Killed Kurt Cobain? also speculates in his book about the final hours leading up to Bobbi's overdose earlier this year.
On January 31, Bobbi Kristina - only 22 - was discovered facedown in a tub of cold water just days before the third anniversary of her mother's very similar death. Gordon claims that he administered CPR.
There has been much specualtion that Bobbi Kristina had attempted suicide, but Halperin believes that she could have been subjected to what drug users call 'the plunge.'
The practice involves plunging an overdose victim into cold water while administering slaps to try and revive them.
'She probably took the plunge,' one local drug addict told him.
The Mosasaurus goes under in ‘Jurassic World’ (Universal) By: smallbizprotection
Do you know anyone that needs to raise funds for an idea, dream, project or any situation? Click Here
Like the tagline says,Jurassic Worldis now open, which means that moviegoers can experience the many attractions of the dino-centric theme park for themselves.But last summer, Yahoo Movies had the opportunity to visit the set of the fourth installment in theJurassicfranchise and learn some of its secrets. A year later, now that the park (and the film) is officially complete, we can reveal them to you…but only if you can present your admission ticket.(Consider that your warning: Spoilers to follow, so stop now if you haven’t seen the movie.)
Steven Spielberg suggested the Mosasaurus’ grand finaleThe Jurassic Park director didn't visit Jurassic World set while the film was in production. But that doesn’t mean he didn’t earn his “Executive Producer” credit. According to World director Colin Trevorrow, Spielberg made a number of suggestions. For example, take the sequence that introduces Jurassic World’s resident aquatic attraction, the Mosasaurus. We first glimpse the creature during its feeding time, as it leaps into the air to nab its prey — a shark, naturally. (How else would you honor the director of Jaws?) Trevorrow’s idea for the sequence ended with the Mosasaurus getting its snack and dousing park goers with water in the process. But Spielberg encouraged him to go a step further. “He said, ‘No, what would be really cool is, after it eats the shark, the bleachers sink down so the crowd can watch her finish it off underwater and you can see all the blood!’ And I was like, ‘Jesus! Okay, that sounds great!'”
Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard near a wrecked Gyrosphere (Universal)
They really built those GyrospheresThough digital magic may have been used to make the dinosaurs run, the Gyrosphere that brothers Zach (Nick Robinson) and Gray (Ty Simpkins) take off-road through the park is a real contraption. During the Hawaii section of the shoot, the ball was loaded onto a track and rolled around on ball bearings, under the watchful eye of a crew member armed with a remote control. “My son got to ride in it,” Trevorrow said. “He was able to ride it forward and in reverse. If only I had had that when I was a child!” We didn’t get a chance to take it for a test run ourselves, but we were shown the full-size Gyrosphere at rest on a soundstage. And producer Frank Marshall teased that the general public might get their very own Gyrosphere experience at some point; according to him, there have been discussions about turning it into an actual attraction at the Universal Studios theme park in Orlando. We call dibs on the first ride!
Texas Teacher Fired After Facebook Post Defending Pool Party Cop: 'I'm Almost to the Point of Wanting Them All Segregated' A fourth-grade teacher was fired after posting a racially fueled Facebook rant defending Eric Casebolt, the McKinney, Texas, cop who pushed a teenager to the ground at a June 5 pool party.
In a post that has since been deleted, Karen Fitzgibbons, a teacher at Bennet Elementary in Wolforth, Texas, wrote that she was, in all-caps, "ANGRY" over the officer's resignation, blaming "the blacks" for causing "racial tension," according to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.
"I guess that's what happens when you flunk out of school and have no education," she continued. "I'm sure their parents are just as guilty for not knowing what their kids were doing; or knew it and didn't care.
"I'm almost to the point of wanting them all segregated on one side of town so they can hurt each other and leave the innocent people alone. Maybe the 50s and 60s were really on to something. Now, let the bashing of my true and honest opinion begin....GO! #imnotracist #imsickofthemcausingtrouble #itwasatagedcommunity"
A statement from the Frenship Independent School District said that Fitzgibbons had been "relieved of her teaching duties" after the administration was made aware of the post.
Fitzgibbons offered up an apology for her words on Thursday, telling KCBD: "First, to anyone, of any race, that I have offended, I sincerely apologize. That was not my intent. I let my emotions get the best of me, and instead of taking a deep breath, vented in an inappropriate way. I am truly sorry."
She added: "I am ashamed of my post. As I look back and reflect, I see how hurtful those words sounded. It is my hope that my sincere apology will be accepted." P.S. Ever been treated unfairly?

It’s been six months since my own personal D-Day event… when the internet exploded all over me and my family. In that time there have been more things happen to me and my family than you can imagine; some good, some bad, some as yet unknown.
I’ve been a member of Legal Shield for over a decade, and I’ve been a sales rep for them for just as long, though I’ve hardly ever sold a single account. If you’re a steady reader of the blog you might remember a few months back I made a post about them and said if you wanted to sign up, you should use my friend’s link. (That way he’d make the commission.)
Six months later, I’m taking the time to write this and share a few things with you; specifically
Legal Shield (formerly Pre-Paid Legal) has helped me and millions like me for years now. It’s GREAT to have a gigantic firm of attorneys on your side, 24×7 without paying an arm and a leg for it. Yes, there are all those normal things everyone uses them for such as traffic tickets and the like, but I’ve been using them for ALL KINDS of stuff for years. My thought was “Well, I’m paying ‘em every month, so let’s see what I can use them for.”
I looked through my member packet and Title I benefits package and quickly discovered they have a lot more use than I thought. I’ll skip all the long-winded examples and just give you the highlights in an attempt to maintain your attention span. Here’s the “crap” I used Legal Shield to save me from, on a daily basis.
Collection letters that aren’t valid: I called them up and said “This company is trying to collect a debt I don’t owe. What can I do?” They asked me to forward them the letter and they could write up a response demanding a detailed account history. I asked them to send me a copy of the letters, just because I was curious. Sure enough, those companies stopped mailing me.
Calls for Collections that weren’t valid: Just like with the letters, I would occasionally get calls from companies with officious-sounding titles, claiming I owed them stuff. I’d give them my attorney’s number and the Intake number I’d opened up with them for free, and advise them to call my attorneys and they’d handle it from then on. Amazingly, the calls stopped.
Telemarketers: I freakin’ hate ‘em! I ask ONCE to be put on their do-not-call list. If they called again, I’d get their info and call Legal Shield. That’s a federal law now, and companies think the general public isn’t aware of it. They legally can’t harrass you anymore if you tell them not to. No worries. I just let Legal Shield handle it for me.
Speeding Ticket: Yeah I got one. I was in another state coming home from my Dad’s funeral and wasn’t paying attention. I got the ticket. I got home, called Legal Shield and told them about it. I faxed them the ticket and they put me in touch with an attorney who had the ticket dismissed AND who refunded over half my money I’d paid him, since there was no cost of court. Even though out-side attorneys aren’t always covered, they took care of me.
Cell Phone Problems: Who doesn’t have them these days? A month ago I spent three hours arguing with a person from Verizon who was going to charge me 386.00 I didn’t owe! One call to Legal Shield and then a call to the local store to give them my attorney info… Poof… no more bill.
Contract Review: When I moved into my condo five years ago I was granted a place to live AND a wonderful god-awfully-long rental lease agreement. I sent it to my attorneys and said “Can you check this out and let me know if it’s all ok?” They called me back within a day and said “Yep, nothing to worry about in it.” Thanks! Talk about peace of mind!
Collection Letters: I had a client that used me one-time, ordered a bunch of custom work, then decided not to pay AFTER it was all installed. I called her, threatened her, emailed her, certified-mailed her, etc. No luck. This went on for three months. Finally I gave up and called Legal Shield and spoke to a lady who identified herself as “Attorney Black.” I said “Ma’am, I’ve been screwed over by a customer and I want someone who will write me the meanest, nastiest, most threatening collection letter ever seen!” She literally laughed on the phone and said “Oh boy. I haven’t done that all week!” Within two day the client had a certified letter sent to her and a copy was sent to me for my records as well. I read that letter… WOW. I’m glad it wasn’t coming to me. By the end of the week… the client paid in full.
These are the normal, every-day things Legal Shield does for me, and for everyone who is a member. It’s nothing special and it’s not special treatment. It’s just that most of us don’t think to call a lawyer to handle mundane stuff. For as low as $17.95 a month…. I’ll call ‘em every day if I have to! I love these guys!

In a video posted to YouTube on June 7, Tatiana, a 19-year-old, describes a fight in the moments leading up to police using force to clear a pool party in McKinney, Texas, on June 5.
Tatiana says in the video her family was hosting a cookout for friends in the Dallas suburb when a white woman used racial slurs against them. Tensions soon rose when a 14-year-old family friend defended the host, calling the remarks racist. A white woman then, says Tatiana, told her "you need to go back to where you're from."
She claims that the confrontation quickly became physical before police arrived on the scene, when a woman allegedly slapped her.
Watch the video above to see more on what Tatiana says preceded the incident with police, and see latest reporting on how the local police department is handling the issue from The Associated Press below.
McKINNEY, Texas (AP) — A suburban Dallas police officer has been placed on administrative leave after a video showed him pushing a 14-year-old girl in a swimsuit to the ground outside a pool and pointing his gun at other teens.
McKinney Police Chief Greg Conley said at a news conference Sunday that the incident began when officers responded Friday to a report of a disturbance involving a group of juveniles at a neighborhood pool.

China-based hackers are suspected of breaking into the computer networks of the U.S. government personnel office and stealing identifying information of at least 4 million federal workers, American officials said Thursday.
The Department of Homeland Security said in a statement that data from the Office of Personnel Management and the Interior Department had been compromised.
"The FBI is conducting an investigation to identify how and why this occurred," the statement said.
The hackers were believed to be based in China, said Sen. Susan Collins, a Maine Republican.
Collins, a member of the Senate intelligence committee, said the breach was "yet another indication of a foreign power probing successfully and focusing on what appears to be data that would identify people with security clearances."
A U.S. official who declined to be identified said the data breach could potentially affect every federal agency. One key question is whether intelligence agency employee information was stolen. Former government employees are affected as well.
"This is an attack against the nation," said Ken Ammon, chief strategy officer of Xceedium, who said the attack fit the pattern of those carried out by nation states for the purpose of espionage.
The information stolen could be used to impersonate or blackmail federal employees with access to sensitive information, he said.
The Office of Personnel Management is the human resources department for the federal government, and it conducts background checks for security clearances. The OPM conducts more than 90 percent of federal background investigations, according to its website.
The agency said it is offering credit monitoring and identity theft insurance for 18 months to individuals potentially affected. The National Treasury Employees Union, which represents workers in 31 federal agencies, said it is encouraging members to sign up for the monitoring as soon as possible.
In November, a former DHS contractor disclosed another cyberbreach that compromised the private files of more than 25,000 DHS workers and thousands of other federal employees.
DHS said its intrusion detection system, known as EINSTEIN, which screens federal Internet traffic to identify potential cyber threats, identified the hack of OPM's systems and the Interior Department's data center, which is shared by other federal agencies.
It was unclear why the EINSTEIN system didn't detect the breach until after so many records had been copied and removed.
"DHS is continuing to monitor federal networks for any suspicious activity and is working aggressively with the affected agencies to conduct investigative analysis to assess the extent of this alleged intrusion," the statement said.
Rep. Adam Schiff, ranking Democrat on the House intelligence committee, called the hack "shocking, because Americans may expect that federal computer networks are maintained with state of the art defenses."
Ammon said federal agencies are rushing to install two-factor authentication with smart cards, a system designed to make it harder for intruders to access networks. But implementing that technology takes time.
Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr, R-N.C., said the government must overhaul its cybersecurity defenses. "Our response to these attacks can no longer simply be notifying people after their personal information has been stolen," he said. "We must start to prevent these breaches in the first place."
P.S. Identity theft insurance means nothing after your identity has been stolen. Legal protection is what you need for what may have happened with your information after the breach, along with identity protection. (On Call Legal and Identity Protection for less than $20 a month).
PSS. Make sure you read the fine print of your identity theft insurance. Better yet, that would be a good question for your attorney. Unlimited consultation and document review up to 15 pages included with membership ($19.95 a month)
