13 Dead in Washington Navy Yard shooting!

The ReadyWriter

He supposedly stole an employee ID to gain access to a Washington Navy Yard in Southwest Washington, DC yesterday and killed thirteen (13) innocent individuals who just woke up and went to work like any other normal Monday morning.

The gunman, later identified as Aaron Alexis allegedly suffered from various psychiatric issues, but was not deemed mentally unfit by the military, which could have stripped him of his security clearance.

Alexis (pictured below), who is the lone gunman behind the Washington Navy Yard massacre had been hearing voices in his head before he snapped and fatally shot a dozen people less than two miles from the U.S. Capitol.

He had been treated since August for a slew of psychiatric problems, including paranoia and a sleep disorder, by Veterans Affairs, the Associated Press reported. But the 34-year-old killer, who was drummed out of the Navy reserves for a “pattern of misbehavior,” was never stripped of his security clearance. That enabled Alexis to get into the fortified facility in southeast Washington with a valid pass and go on a killing spree that ended when he was gunned down by cops.

In addition to his mental health issues, Alexis was described as someone who held a grudge against the Navy, had several encounters with law enforcement and struggled to control fits of rage.

Why Alexis went on a killing spree remained a mystery Tuesday, although officials indicated terrorism was an unlikely cause.

In the shocking video at the link above, an angry woman is seen screaming at her rival for more than 90 seconds —  with her tiny little girl placidly sitting in her lap. Then all of a sudden she roughly tosses the infant aside and into the arms of a stranger across the aisle to engage in a fight.

The image is so disturbing for so many reasons #1, the young ignorant girl is a mother and #2, both women are arguing over a man her mother supposedly slept with.

The ugly and disgraceful scene was caught on a cell phone camera by a fellow bus traveler in  Connecticut.

It’s unknown when the footage was filmed and neither woman have been identified.

A man who dismembered his mother and scattered her body parts around the Bronx, took pictures of himself holding her severed head before disposing of her body, the NY Post reports.

Bahsid McLean, 23, confessed to the gruesome murder of his own mother, Tanya Byrd, who was the only caretaker of her 6-year-old Down syndrome son.

Police say the grinning psycho used a power saw to cut up his mother, then posed with parts of her body in grisly photos that he wanted as keepsakes. McLean and a friend, William Harris, 26, then stuffed Byrd’s body into several black garbage bags and a suitcase. They drove around the Bronx dumping Byrd’s remains like trash.

“He’s definitely sick,” a law enforcement source told the NY Post. Surveillance video from a hardware store shows McLean and his accomplice purchasing a brand new power saw and a refill blade with cash.

The saw and the blade were later found in a  box in the home McLean shared with his mother and 6-year-old mentally disabled brother.

Friends described Byrd as a loving mother and caretaker to her Down syndrome son.

Police told the Post McLean killed his mother because she “wanted him to grow up and move out and be a man.”

Marco McMillian was considered by many to be a man on the rise. The first openly gay mayoral candidate’s body was found near a Mississippi River levee Wednesday morning and stunned residents of his hometown in Clarksdale, Miss.  Authorities are investigating McMillian’s death as a homicide but declined to speculate on the cause of death. Authorities have also said a person of interest was in custody, but released no other details about his murder.

McMillian was a highly respected person in town, the 34-year-old Democrat wasn’t running what many would consider a typical campaign for political office in Mississippi, which is known for its conservative politics.

McMillian, was not only nice looking but he was promising. He had forged ties while serving four years as international executive director of the historically black Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity Inc. Photos on McMillian’s website and Facebook page show him with a younger Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton and with U.S. Rep. John Lewis, a Georgia Democrat.

Authorities had been looking for McMillian since Tuesday morning when a man crashed the candidate’s SUV into another vehicle on U.S. Highway 49. McMillian was not in the car.

McMillian was hoping to win the office being vacated by Mayor Henry Espy Jr.

Pitts-Gaddy’s body was found in her first-floor bedroom with the knife left implanted in her head, while her daughter Natasia was found in the family’s basement  TV room.

Brady, a custodian at a Leonia (New Jersey) Middle School, was charged with murder, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and hindering  apprehension.
