Wrongful Death Clark County Shooting Victim Remembered

A pregnant Eastern Kentucky University student was killed and three other people were hurt, in a shooting at a Clark County apartment complex.

It happened on Tuesday night at around 8 p.m. at The Summit apartments on Oxford Drive. Winchester Police said 20-year-old Lamont Wilkerson barged into an apartment with two other people and started shooting. A stray bullet hit and killed 19-year old Amber Caudill, who was in the apartment below.

Wilkerson is charged with murder and burglary. Wilkerson’s girlfriend, Lillian Barnett, is charged with complicity to murder.

LEX 18 News crews were there as Wilkerson was taken to jail. When asked about the crime, Wilkerson said, “I ain’t do nothing. I cant say nothing about nothing. I didn’t do nothing, so i’m not worried about it.”

Investigators said they are still searching for another young man who was caught on security video dropping one of the shooting victims off at the hospital in Clark County.

LEX 18 News has also learned the names of two of the other shooting victims. Family members of one of the men said an apparent home invasion took place at the apartment of Justin Meadows and Crayvone Yelder and that both men were shot in the attack. Winchester Police said, at last check the two victims were in critical condition at UK Hospital.

Meadows’ grandfather said his grandson was hit in the shoulder, back and stomach. He said the innocent teen killed, Amber Caudill, was related to Meadows through marriage.

On Christmas Ever Caudill’s friends and family were spending the holiday in mourning. Family said Caudill was about to surprise her fiance with the news of her pregnancy on Christmas, however she never had the chance.

For Caudill’s friends it’s difficult to fathom the loss her family and fiance are facing. “Not only for them to find out that they lost their daughter, but their grandchild too. I just can’t imagine,” said Cati Hurst. She was one of Caudill’s best friends, and is still in shock from the tragedy.

It’s a pain David Arbic, Caudill’s fiance, now knows too well. On Tuesday night he, his mother and the woman he planned to marry, were watching TV when they heard fighting upstairs. “This time it was louder than normal and we started hearing gunshots,” said Arbic.

He said in a matter of seconds Caudill had been shot. “She already hit the ground and we thought that she was probably trying to take cover,” said Arbic. Sadly, it didn’t take long for him to realize the love of his life, was lifeless on the ground. “When I actually got a second look at her, you could tell that she was already gone… Blood was just piling up,” said Arbic.

Caudill’s death isn’t what friends and family said they want to focus on. “I just want people to remember her for what she was and just to keep that memory alive,” said Hurst

They said Caudill was a straight A student at EKU studying photography. A girl with a heart of gold. “She was talented, happy, always willing to make you smile,” said Hurst. “She didn’t deserve this no, but she deserves to have justice for this senseless crime.”

While no justice will ever take back this tragedy, those closest to Caudill said they find comfort in three of her last words. “We tell each other we love each other at least every 15 minutes,” said Arbic.

Amber Caudill’s funeral is being arranged by Hearn Funeral Home in Stanton.

Wrongful Death Fort Campbell Resident Charged with Murder Resulting From Child Abuse

A Fort Campbell, Kentucky, woman remains in federal custody today charged with felony murder related to the death of an infant, announced Acting U.S. Attorney John E. Kuhn, Jr.

Sheilla E. Linares, was indicted by a federal grand jury on December 18, 2014. Linares was specifically charged with unlawfully killing an infant, T.R.C., Jr., committed in the perpetration of child abuse.

The incident occurred December 3, 2013, in the Linares home on the Fort Campbell military base. Linares was providing child care for T.R.C., Jr., who died four days later on December 7, 2013.

http://liarcatchers.com/wrongful_death.html

The Federal Bureau of Investigation arrested Linares on Friday, December 19, 2014, and her arraignment was held the same day before United States Magistrate Judge Lanny King. A detention hearing was held today before Judge King and was continued without a decision on bond. Until further order of the court, Linares will remain in the custody of the United States Marshals Service.

If convicted at trial, Linares faces a sentence of life in prison and a $250,000 fine.

This case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Jo E. Lawless and is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation with assistance from the United States Army Criminal Investigation Division, and the Clarksville Tennessee Police Department.

The indictment of a person by a Grand Jury is an accusation only and that person is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.

Pedophile Tracking 73 Year Old Man Sentenced for Child Porn

A 73-year-old man who was arrested while living in a Cathedral City storage container filled with child pornography was sentenced Monday in Los Angeles to 2 1/2 years in federal prison for possession of the illegal material.

Richard L. Arlington — a one-time Palm Springs roommate of a former college professor who was sent to prison last week for traveling overseas to have sex with children — was also ordered to serve 10 years of supervised release after he gets out of prison and to register as a sex offender.

Seated in a wheelchair, Arlington told U.S. District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez that if he hadn’t been under the “influence” of Walter Lee Williams, a now-imprisoned ex-USC professor of gender and sexuality studies, he would not be in court.

http://liarcatchers.com/pedophile_tracking.html

“Because of this, I get in all this trouble,” Arlington said, adding that he had never before engaged in such behavior.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Herbrina Sanders countered that decades-old material found last year in the rented storage unit with Arlington suggests the defendant had begun collecting illicit material involving preteen boys many years ago.

Sanders wrote in court papers that the trove included child erotica, “pedophilosophy,” photos and Arlington’s handwritten journal containing detailed accounts of his sexual interest in young boys.

Yet, the prosecutor wrote, there is no evidence Arlington has ever physically assaulted a child, although officials found a suggestive web chat between Arlington and a 14-year-old boy in the Philippines.

Arlington’s attorney, Georgina Wakefield, blamed Williams for her client’s legal problems.

Williams “was a role model and leader in the LGBT community … and to my client,” she told the judge, proposing a sentence of time served.

The former professor “was the first openly gay man” Arlington had ever met, Wakefield said.

“I don’t think my client would be charged with this — if not for Mr. Williams,” the defense attorney said.

Arlington and Williams were both members of the Buddhist Universal Association in Los Angeles, which espoused an ideology of “extreme sexual freedoms,” according to the FBI.

Arlington came to the attention of law enforcement last year after he was identified by a concerned citizen as someone who had the desire and opportunity to sexually abuse children, Sanders wrote in her sentencing papers.

The prosecutor said Arlington had told the informer that his religion sanctioned sex between adult males, ordained members and boys under the age of 12. Further investigation by the FBI found that Arlington possessed child pornography in his email account involving two boys under 12.

Williams, who was once among the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted fugitives, was sentenced last week to five years behind bars for flying to the Philippines to have sex with underage boys he met online.

Williams taught anthropology, gender studies and history at USC for about 20 years until his resignation in February 2011. Under the guise of academic research, he traveled in the Philippines and elsewhere in Southeast Asia to have sex with underage boys, according to the FBI, which identified 10 victims between ages 9 and 17.

Fraud Investigation Lawrenceburg Police Warn of Jury Duty Scam

The Lawrenceburg police department have issued a a warning that there is a caller tells the possible victim that they are law enforcement and that they’ve missed jury duty on a specific date and now there’s a warrant out for their arrest. The potential victim is then told that they can avoid going to jail by sending a specified amount of money to pay the bond.

Law enforcement will NEVER call you and ask for money for bonds or issue a warrant over the phone.

http://liarcatchers.com/fraud_investigation.html

These scams are designed to  prey on  fears and can be very anxiety provoking.

It is very important to remember to never give money to a company with which you are not familiar, even if they say they are authorities. If you are concerned, a simple call to your local authority should clear up any confusion.
