A Mothers Wish: Find Her Daughter's Killer- Brittany Danielle McGlone




On the facebook page of Brittany Danielle McGlone you see a vibrant beautiful young woman (pictured) ready for an exciting evening at her high school prom.

A stranger viewing the photos posted by members of her family proudly displayed will see her from the first day she was brought home from the hospital, to every year that followed, marking a journey through the awkward teen years and then, in a blink of an eye, she was gone. Brittany was barely 19-years old, and brutally murdered in [Wood County] Winnsboro, Texas on May 4, 2007.

Brittany was bludgeoned to death in the home. allegedly, of her former boyfriend. You would think that police would already have the person responsible for her murder in custody. But, they do not.

Another holiday is arriving, there are no presents under the tree, no christmas decorations hanging, and with each passing year Brittany's mother's health is in decline. The lights that once burned so brightly in the McGlone home have all but burned out, with the exception of the light on the telephone.

This mother who night after night sits by the phone waiting for it to ring, hoping and praying it is a news reporter or a law enforcement officer informing her that an arrest has been made in her daughter's murder, a suspect is in custody. Sadly, Brittany's mother does hold out much hope that will happen when those in law enforcement have let the case go cold.

Brittany's mother has just one wish this year for Christmas, that someone, anyone with information on her daughter's murder step foward and contact the authorities.

That is her only wish.

If you have any information on this case please contact the Wood County Sheriff's Department, they can be reached at (903) 763-2201.

Once again our coverage will continue on the syndicated radio show with Dr. Laurie Roth and myself on The Roth Show  as it relates to blantant disregard for justice in the Oklahoma medical exaiminers office.  Be sure to tune in at 7:00 PM EST/ 6:00 PM CST / 4:00 PM PST for the latest live by going to http://www.therothshow.com/.

ASHLEY DAWN THOMPSON died on Janary 1, 2004 at her home in Roger's County, Oklahoma.  She was only 15 years old. Her boyfriend at the time, who was supposed to be in a guest bedroom, claimed he entered her bedroom through a window on her terrace and found her hanging in her closet.  This man, Joshua Wayne Brown, is now in prison on subsequent rape charges. Yet Ashley's death was summarily ruled a suicide, despite the fact that she was murdered. In fact, only 7 months before Ashley's death, another girlfriend of Joshua Brown's died by hanging. Joining us on the Roth Show is her mother Stacey and Attorney Jaye Mendros.  Currently she represents several families at odds with the embattled ME's Office, which lost its Accreditation in 2009 and is currently the subject of a political corruption investigation.

The Choir Boy Chris Brown on Larry King


I wanted to give Chris Brown some credit for appearing on the pre-taped Larry King show last night. Beside him was his mother Joyce Hawkins and lawyer Mark Geragos.

Larry King, twice during the broadcast said "you don't look like a violent person." Then again neither do the majority of violent offenders in this country. Obviously they don't have the opportunity to be given an hour long broadcast on national television unless of course you are Drew Peterson.


Chris Brown talked about those "bloggers" and others whom are writing about what happend the night he beat Rihanna bloody with his fists. And Mark Geragos continued to minimize his clients responsibility in a poor attempt placing a protective coat of fresh blue paint like a halo around Brown. I give Geragos credit for the effort, but it was not good enough. And having Brown's mother on the broadcast was a nice touch, that in my opinion backfired.

When Rihanna was beaten no one else was in that car but, Chris Brown. So why was he able to have his mother and lawyer on the show to help him defend himself? If he was truly sorry he would have been interviewed with Larry King one-on-one. Or better yet, Denise Brown should have been in the studio during the interview instead of the after show broadcast for 7 minutes on Anderson Cooper's show.
At the end of King's interview he stated that "Rihanna declined to be on the show and she had an open invitation to appear." The photo's of her beating need no explaination as "actions spoke louder than any words Chris Brown could provide in any sound bite.

Chris Brown also used his age as an excuse for a relationship gone wrong. "No one taught us, there is no relationship manual." Ah but there is, I believe it is referred to as knowing right from wrong. He watched his mother beaten on more then one ocassion, likely at an early age as he stood helpless unable to do anything. And most boys who witness their mothers beaten are likely to be abusers themselves just like Chris Brown.

No one can take away the incredible talent of Chris Brown as a performer and actor. And this is not about selling records or being able to sell tickets at concerts. It is about a serious criminal act of violence. I did not hear one sentence acknowledging this as a crime. With attitude it was more about hey I got caught, I turned myself in, I can influence the community, and this is a private matter. Chris Brown's words sounded as if he had an accident in his boxer's and need to change into a clean pair.

A woman was savagely beaten one evening by her boyfriend. A crime that takes places 365 days a year, 7 days a week. This story only broke because it was between two celebrities. Instead of Chris Brown being angry he should be sending a message to high school and college age men that he committed a serious crime and beating any woman is against the law.
I did not hear that, did you?

Detroit Police Department: Sweeping The Broom With One Of Their Own

Interesting that a Detroit Police Officer who fired three shots with his service revolver at his girlfriend is once again, being protected by the brotherhood of the blue badge. Not a big deal, "his anger got the best of him", according to his Sargent. Wrong response by the police department. The Invisible Cowardly Unnamed Officer should be charged with "A Felony for discharging at an inhabited dwelling." Look it up why don' t you, it's someplace there on the law books.

Whatdoes this say to all police officer's wives and girlfriends involved with those on the force whose "Anger gets the best of them". Is this how the Police Departments in the State of Michigan handle all incidents of officer related crimes?


Here's the Story: Cop facing gun charges after Canton domestic dispute


By Kurt Kuban Staff Writer
A Detroit police officer was arrested in Canton Tuesday afternoon after he allegedly fired three shots from his revolver during a domestic dispute with his ex-girlfriend.
Canton Police Sgt. Rick Pomorski said the officer is in his early 40s and a 10-year veteran of the Detroit Police Department. He got into an argument with the woman at her house in the Glengary subdivision on Canton’s west side when she began to move some of his stuff out of the home. Pomorski said the girlfriend is in her late 30s.

According to Pomorski, the man fired three shots from his revolver into the floor, and that the woman was not hit. The incident occurred about 1:30 p.m.

“I think this is one where his anger got away from him,” Pomorski said.

Police did not identify the officer, pending his arraignment, which Pomorski expected to happen Thursday morning in 35th District Court. As of Wednesday afternoon, he was still waiting for the Wayne County Prosecutor’s office to hand down charges.

Charges could range from assault to illegal discharge of a firearm. He was being held in Canton’s jail pending his arraignment.Pomorski said the victim wanted to press charges after the incident.“She’s doing OK, just complaining about some bumps and bruises,” he said. “She does want to press charges and she is adamant of her fear of this man.”Pomorski said the woman refused medical treatment after officers responded at the scene.
