KTVK-TV reports that Aaron Jermaine Byrd was arrested this week following the bizarre attack at Emerson Elementary in Mesa.

The TV station report says the principal told its reporter that parents weren't notified because they didn't need to know, and he asked the reporter to stop telling parents who arrived at the school on Friday to pick up their kids after school.

Mexico City ( Three More Arrested in Mexico Bar Kidnapping )
MEXICO CITY – Three more suspects have been arrested in connection with the May 26 kidnapping of 13 people from a capital bar and their subsequent murder, a Mexican federal prosecutor said.Jonathan Robles Gonzalez, Pedro Francisco Paz Lopez and Fernando Fernandez Sanchez are implicated “in the offenses of kidnapping and deprivation of life of the 13 people found in the clandestine grave in Tlalmanalco,” Renato Sales told reporters.
Federal police took the three men by helicopter from Toluca, capital of Mexico state, to the federal Attorney General’s Office in Mexico City, where the suspects were paraded before the media.
Present for the press conference was Mexico City district attorney Rodolfo Rios Garza, who thanked the federal AG’s office for assisting his investigation.
The bodies of the people snatched in May from the Heaven bar in Mexico City’s upscale Zona Rosa district were discovered last month by federal authorities pursuing leads in a firearms case unrelated to the Heaven kidnappings.
Investigators found the mass grave – covered with cement, asbestos and lime – on the La Mesa ranch in Tlalmanalco, Mexico state.
Only two of the 13 families have received the remains of their slain loved ones.
Authorities say the mass abduction and murder was carried out in reprisal for the May 24 killing of Horacio Vite Angel, a reputed member of the La Union de Insurgentes drug gang, by the rival La Union de Tepito group.
One of the people taken from the bar and killed, 16-year-old Jerzy Ortiz, was the son of Jorge “El Tanque” Ortiz Reyes, the jailed boss of La Union de Tepito, officials said. EFE
Casey Anthony ( Will finally be forced to answer to a court about the disappearance of her daughter Caylee )
While Casey went to trial and was acquitted of killing Caylee, she did not answer questions under oath about her daughter’s disappearance.
But now Casey Anthony is due to return to court after Zenaida Gonzalez filed a defamation suit against Anthony. In 2008, Casey told investigators that her daughter was kidnapped by a babysitter named Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez, but detectives said the sitter never existed. Caylee’s body was found the next year.When the case goes to trial next month, Casey will be forced to answer questions about Caylee’s death, said Gonzalez’s attorney Matt Morgan.
“Casey Anthony will not be permitted to plead the Fifth as her appeals have now been resolved,” Morgan said.. “We look forward to getting answers to the questions we have had for a very long time.”
Gonzalez says her life was ruined by the allegation Casey made against her. A judge must first decide if the case will be discharged or if it will got forward. Morgan said he believes it will because Anthony committed a calculated act against his client.
“We believe that it’s not because it was an intentional act and the judge will make a final decision,” said Morgan. “We hope it’s going to reveal the truth of what happened and how Zenaida got drug into the circus in the first place.”
Legal Analyst Mark NeJame said he believes Casey Anthony’s deposition will finally let the public know exactly what happened to Caylee.
“I’ve always believed this is pre-meditated, first-degree murder,” said NeJame. “How she weaved the set of facts into Zenaida Gonzalez being the nanny is relevant because all of that would be a part of the parcel of the apparent lie that was told.”
NeJame said it will be a difficult situation for Casey. If she tells the truth she will likely have to admit to murder, but if she lies then she will face legal consequences, NeJame said.
It will also be one of the first public appearances for Casey Anthony since the end of her trial. She has spent most of the past few years in hiding.
Iran ( Pastor released from prison - Banned from contact with Christians and cannot be a Pastor )
Wednesday, 11 September 2013
Initial trial of Iranian-Armenian pastor, Vruir Avanessian, was held behind closed doors in the Revolutionary Court in Tehran. Iranian authorities had arrested him last Christmas. This opens up a new chapter in Iranian regime's crackdown on Armenian Christian leaders.
According to Iranian Christian news agency, "Mohabat News", Pastor Avanessian's trial was held in the morning of September 7, 2013 in branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court in Tehran.
Accroding to the report, the initial trial was held behind closed doors.
It has been reported that his charges announced in the court session included "action against national security" and "proselytizing Farsi-speaking citizens".
The report adds that the court banned him from any form of contact with Christians or holding any worship services until the judge issues his final verdict in future court sessions.
Vruir Avanessian is an official Iranian-Armenian pastor. Plain-clothes Iranian security authorities had arrested him on December 27, 2012, in an organized raid on a Christmas celebration for worship held in a house in Tehran.
Also in this raid, 50 other Farsi-speaking Christian attendees had been arrested. They were all released after filling out some prepared forms.
Another Christian convert arrested that night was Mohammad-Hadi Mostafa Bordbar. On June 9, 2013, branch 26 of the Revolutionary Court sentenced him to ten years in prison for spreading Christian thoughts intended to undermine Islamic regime through underground Christian gatherings.
When Pastor Avanessian, who is 61 years old, was arrested he was in immediate need of medical attention. He was subjected to severe interrogation during the time of his detention. Also, he was transferred to hospital a few times in prison uniform, although his charges had not been proven. After Christian communities and Human Rights activists protested against Pastor Avanessian's arrest and the news had been spread by Farsi and English news services, he was temporarily released on bail. He remained under detention for 15 days.
He is now retired after having served 17 years as an official Pastor at Persian and Armenian churches. He is suffering from severe heart disease and has undergone several surgeries. Besides being a pastor he was also a Christian singer. However, high doses of medications has had negative effects on his vocal cords making him unable to continue singing Christian songs and preaching at church.
Before coming to faith in Jesus Christ, and in his younger years, Pastor Avanessian was a popular and widely known Armenian singer. He saw amazing miracles in his life through Jesus and consequently dedicated his life to the church. Being a talented young artist, he became a worship leader at the Central Assemblies of God Church in Tehran and used his art to glorify God ever since.
- Pressure on Armenian Christian Leaders
After the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Iranian-Armenian citizens were banned from taking most political and military positions and faced a growing restriction on their religious activities.
Recently Iranian authorities escalated pressure on Armenian Christians leaders to the same degree as Iranian Christian converts and arrested, threatened and restricted those Armenian Christian leaders who were actively evangelizing among Farsi-speaking Iranians. Arrest of several Armenian Pastors in recent months was a dark new chapter in the Islamic regime's crackdown on Christians. Pastor Robert Asseriyan, pastor of the Central AOG Church was among those arrested, and his arrest resulted in the closure of the largest Farsi-speaking church in Iran.
According to the received reports, in recent months, the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence summoned several Armenian pastors and Christian leaders asking them to either completely abandon their Christian activities, or quietly leave the country within three months.
As a result of restrictions imposed on Iranian-Armenian citizens since the Islamic Revolution, a great number of them have emigrated to other countries. From 200,000 to 250,000 Armenian population in Iran, only a small number of 60,000 are still in the country.
India ( Gang Rape suspects get death by Hanging - See suspects and story )
An Indian court awarded 4 rapists death penalty.
A court in India has awarded death penalty to all four convicts in December 16, 2012 gangrape and murder of 23-year-old girl in a moving bus in Indian capital.
New Delhi, Sept 13/Nationalturk – In a significant judgement, a trial court in India has awarded death penalty to all the four convicts in December 16, 2012 gangrape and murder of 23-year-old girl in a moving bus in Indian capital.All the four accused Akshay Thakur, Pawan Gupta, Vinay Sharma and Mukesh Singh were sentenced to death by hanging at a fast-track court in New Delhi today.
“It was the rarest of rare crimes and deserved the death sentence,” the judge observed.
The court found all the four guilty of “cold-blooded murder”.
The 23-year-old girl was brutally raped by six persons in a moving bus in Indian capital (New Delhi) on December 16. She was later beaten with iron roads and thrown out of the bus in a naked position. The girl had sustained critical injuries and died in a hospital in Singapore two weeks after the attack. However, before her death she had given a detailed statement to the police, which helped convict her attackers.
All the six rapists were arrested and one of them was found hanging in his prison cell in Tihar jail in March this year. Another, who was 17 at the time of the attack, was convicted by a juvenile court last month and sentenced to three years in a reform centre.
‘Judge awarded death after looking at gravity of incident’
“The judge awarded death to all the accused after looking at the gravity of the incident and inhuman torture. The death penalty has been awarded under Section 302 (murder) as the girl had died due to the injuries inflicted by the convicts,” a lawyer said.On September 10, the court held Akshay Thakur, Vinay Sharma, Mukesh Singh and Pawan Gupta guilty on all counts including gangrape, murder, unnatural offence, dacoity, kidnapping and destruction of evidence on September 10.
While convicting the four rapists, the court had said that the injuries inflicted on the victim clearly show that their intention was not only to rape but also to kill the girl and their actions were premeditated.
We’re happy by verdict: Victim’s family
The father of the victim said he was happy that court has awarded death to the rapists of his daughter.“We are happy. Justice has been delivered,” he told reporters outside the court.
The girl’s family members were present in the courtroom when the judge delivered the judgement.
The victims parents had been demanding awarding of death sentence to the rapists to prevent recurrence of such acts in future.
“We are happy but our fight is not over. We will always stand with the people in their fight against crimes against women,” said victim’s mother.
