The ReadyWriter

19-year-old honor student, Jessica Moore (pictured above), was killed on saturday night while saving her friend at a house party near Seton Hall University.

Police arrested Nicholas Welch at his home in East Orange, NJ, which was on the same block where the shooting took place.

Welch, 25, was denied entry into the off-campus fraternity bash, when he and 19-year-old Marcus Bascus returned to the party, kicked down the front door and opened fire on a group of innocent college students.

Both men are charged with murder, conspiracy and weapons possession, and cops are still hunting for Bascus.

Jessica Moore, a psychology major from Virginia, was killed in the hail of bullets as she jumped in front of her friend Nakeisha Vanterpool, of The Bronx. Four other victims were wounded as well.

“Jacksons Suing AEG Entertainment”

The ReadyWriter

The Jackson family has launched a “wrongful death” lawsuit against AEG Entertainment.

The family claims that, AEG’S contract with Micheal, created a legal duty for them to act reasonably toward the physical well-being of the late pop star.

The family is also blaming AEG for hiring Dr. Conrad Murray without the proper background check of his credentials and not providing the proper medical equipment to assist in Michael’s well-being.

The attorney who filed the lawsuit on behalf of Micheal Jackson’s family released a statement saying, “The purpose of the lawsuit is to prove to the world the truth about what really happened once and for all”.

Of course the truth will always prevail but most importantly, I’m sure the Jackson family is seeking peace of mind.

“Man And Woman Stoned To Death For Having An Affair”

The ReadyWriter

A man and a woman who allegedly committed adultery, were stoned to death in a village controlled by the Taliban in Afghanistan.

The barbaric act is the latest in a string of archaic sentences handed down by the Taliban, which practices a strict adherence to Islamic law.

The couple, both in their 20s, had their hands tied behind their backs and stood in a field; as several people among 100 local villagers threw rocks at them until they died.

The man, 28, was married, while the woman, 23, was engaged. The couple allegedly confessed to having had an affair with one another.

Wow! I guess all of the adulterers in the United States should be lucky that this isn’t the law of this land. Even a stoning by “tongue lashing” is less painful I’m sure.
