Douglas Wooten: Angela Deem Friend Who Appeared on 90 Day Fiance Arrested for MURDER
Angela Deem is a reality star, a newly married woman, and a 55-year-old grandmother.
Over the years, she has made questionable choices both on and off camera.
Some of the people closest to her have made much, much worse choices.
One man in her orbit has now been arrested on a number of charges, including murder.
There, he was known as "DJ Doug," where he appeared on Angela Deem's storyline.
He was featured as an "events coordinator" at one of the potential venues that Angela investigated -- when, at the time, she had hoped to bring Michael over on a K-1 visa and marry him in Georgia.
Interestingly, it has been rumored that Dougie Doug and Angela were actually closer than any of the viewing audience was led to believe.

NYC Closing Out Its Bloodiest Year in Nearly a Decade as Killings Spike Amid Pandemic, Unrest
Heralded as the safest big city in America in recent years, New York City is closing out its bloodiest year in nearly a decade, grappling with a surge in homicides and a pandemic authorities say has helped fuel violence.
The city had recorded 447 killings as of Tuesday, a 41% increase over last year and the largest number since 2011. The number of people shot has more than doubled last year’s total, nearing a 14-year high.
Among the victims: a 1-year-old boy sitting in his stroller at a summer cookout; a 53-year-old teacher walking his dog; and a 43-year-old mother looking out the window of her child’s third-floor bedroom. All three were killed by stray bullets.

Sex trafficking ring of 178 people are arrested in Florida for trafficking ONE teenage girl who was 13 when the abuse began
Nearly 200 people have been arrested in a shocking child sex trafficking case centered on one teenage girl whose own mother allegedly sold her for sex or drugs in Florida.
Officials say the victim was 13 and 14 when most of the alleged offenses occurred but the abuse may have started before her 13th birthday.
Overall 106 people face felony charges including human trafficking and lewd and lascivious battery on a child under 16, and 18 of those are being charged federally. Meanwhile, 72 face misdemeanor charges, including solicitation of prostitution, and notices to appear.
Some of the people linked to the case include a grade school physical education teacher and a high-profile booster for Florida State University, as per the Tallahassee Democrat.
'The sheer number. The all-day, everyday, all-the-time solicitation and sexual activity and talk about cash for money and clearly meeting. I had never seen something just that prolific,' Tallahassee Police Department Investigator Elizabeth Bascom, who first uncovered the victim being sold online, said.
'When you can go online and order a pizza and a girl at the same time, and the girl shows up to your door before the pizza, our society is in trouble. OK, that’s where we are. It is unbelievably accessible,' she said, calling the abuse 'horrific'.

New York City Police To Stop Removing Religious People's Headwear
The New York Police Department (NYPD) will no longer remove religious people's headwear—such as turbans, hijabs, kippahs or habits—when taking their mugshots, according to a new settlement announced on Monday.
The changed policy, which takes effect in 60 days, is the result of a class-action lawsuit filed on March 16, 2018 by Arwa Aziz and Jamilla Clark, two Muslim women. The women said the NYPD's policy of removing religious headwear violated their religious rights and left them in tears and shame following their separate encounters with police.

For fifth year in a row, hate crimes rise in Orange County — and by 24%
From slurs to physical confrontations, hate crimes in Orange County rose in 2019 for the fifth year in a row, and by a huge leap, 24%.
A majority of the crimes involved the perpetrator attacking the victim for his or her race, national origin or ethnicity.
Although Black people constitute less than 2% of Orange County’s nearly 3.2 million residents, they were the most targeted racial group, according to the report.
Among the hate crimes motivated by religious prejudice, members of the Jewish community were the primary targets, representing about two-thirds of 44 hate incidents, followed by Catholics, other Christians and Muslims, according to the report. Among crimes related to victims’ sexual orientation and gender identity, a majority of the cases were antigay, followed by antifemale and antitransgender.

LGBT+ hate crimes rising faster than any other group
Most hate crimes go unpunished
Overall hate crimes have risen by 8% in 2019 to 2020. They now stand at 105,090 cases a year, almost double their 2015 to 2016 level of 57,676 cases. However, LGBT+ Brits have been hit by the steepest rises again.
By contrast to the LGBT+ rises, religious hate crimes were actually down by 5% in the last 12 month period.
Meanwhile racially-motivated hate was up by 6% and hate crimes based on disability were up by 9%.
Over half (53%) of the hate crimes the police recorded were for public order offences. A further third (38%) were for violence against the person. Five per cent were criminal damage and arson offences.
Meanwhile the figures also reveal that most victims who report hate crime never get to see justice.
