Charlotte Claims Another Mexican Immigrant

Charlotte’s Monday Homicide Victim 25 year old Mexican National Jose Antonio Mejia-Gaona was released on bond by the MCSO just last month - once again proving incarceration saves lives.

CMPD Officers were called to North Sharon Amity near Central Avenue around 7am on Monday, October 14th for a welfare check. 

When they arrived on the scene, they located 25-year-old Jose Antonio Mejia-Gaona suffering from an apparent gunshot wound behind the Captain D's quick serve restaurant. 

MEDIC pronounced Mejia-Gaona dead on the scene. Homicide Detectives are currently investigating. No arrests have been made at this time.

Same story Mecklenburg County DA's recently dismissed the charges:

1. COMMON LAW ROBBERY

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

2. ASSAULT INFLICT SERIOUS INJ(M)

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

3. INJURY TO PERSONAL PROPERTY

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

4. COMMUNICATING THREATS

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

Before the woke DA and Judges took over our justice system Jose would have seen active prison time, likely been deported back to Mexico and would be alive today.

Grant who is aka "Black Ice" was cooling off at the NC DOC Union County Prison Unit where he was held in restricted housing under close supervision. He was paroled on March 15, 2024 after serving 3 years and 3 months.

 "As the leader of this agency, I'm grateful for the quick arrest of a man who tragically took the life of a member of the JSO family," Jacksonville County Sheriff T.K. Waters said during a news conference Sunday afternoon.

Demaurea Grant, 29, allegedly shot and killed Bradley McNew, an off-duty corrections officer, in Duval County early Saturday morning.

He had outstanding warrants for second-degree murder, discharging a firearm from a vehicle, possession of a firearm by a felon and aggravated assault. He is currently being held in the Gaston County Jail awaiting an extradition hearing.

Prior to the shooting, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said McNew went to check on a woman who was assaulted by Grant.

Grant and the woman got back into a black Mustang before he hung out the window, fired a weapon and struck McNew, the sheriff’s office said.

Harris Teeter Morrowcroft Bear Spray Robbery Follow-Up

The Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department offered the following information regarding the brazzen September 1st robbery of the SouthPark Harris Teeter:

The Organized Retail Crime Task Force has been operational for approximately 7 years and assisted with the recent identification of a case we had in September.

Our officers led apprehension efforts for Common Law Robbery organized theft ring suspects who committed numerous shoplifting incidents throughout our city. These shoplifting incidents turned into Common Law Robberies when the suspects sprayed store employees with bear spray as they were approached in order to complete their theft and flee from the scene.

In total, five suspects were involved in four different cases – in three of these cases bear spray was used to assault victims during the theft. The most recent case occurred on September 1, in CMPD’s Providence Division at the Harris Teeter located at 6701 Carnegie Blvd. The suspects used clothing to disguise their appearances and used the same getaway car. As a result of the work of the ORCTF, detectives identified two suspects involved and were able to link these suspects as well as three others to several cases.

Through diligent investigation, surveillance and coordination with retailers, they have successfully identified and apprehended numerous suspects involved in these criminal networks. The work of the Organized Retail Crime Task Force not only helps reduce financial losses for businesses but also improves public safety by curbing illegal activities often associated with organized retail crime, such as fraud and violent crime. These actions send a clear message to offenders, contributing to a safer and more secure community environment. The collaboration between law enforcement, businesses and community members continues to strengthen as officers remain vigilant in addressing this ongoing issue.

But the story doesn't end there.

Shaquilla Anganette Martin DOB 10.31.1994

Despite more than a dozen arrests she has no convictions in Mecklenburg County. Only one conviction in Catawba County for larceny which resulted in a sentence of probation.

Evictions and Child support civil cases litter her public record.

But what is shocking is the number of voluntary dismissals by the Mecklenburg County District Attorney

Even traffic violations:

NO OPERATORS LICENSE

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

OPER/PERMIT OPER VEH NO INSUR

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

FAIL TO WEAR SEAT BELT

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

CHILD NOT IN REAR SEAT

DR/ALLOW REG PLATE NOT DISPLAY

VD-District Dismissals w/o Leave by DA - No Plea Agreement

GIVE/LEND/BORROW LIC PLATE

All dismissed by the Mecklenburg DA.

But her arrests are not just in Mecklenburg County

Martin has arrests in Stanly, Catawba, and Cabarrus Counties as well.

Yet the Mecklenburg DA continues to dismiss charges.

On Tuesday, October 8, 2024, at approximately 9:10 a.m., Eastway Division officers responded to an Assault with a Deadly Weapon with injury call for service in the 100 block of Winding Path Way. Upon arrival, officers located an unoccupied vehicle and multiple shell casings.  

A short time later, Central Division officers responded to an Assault with a Deadly Weapon with injury call for service near the intersection of North Davidson Street and East 12th Street. Upon arrival, officers located a male victim suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. The Charlotte Fire and MEDIC also responded to the scene.  MEDIC pronounced the victim deceased on scene.

Facts seems to indicate the victim identified as Jamario Caldwell, age 32 was shot at the first location and was driven to the North Davidson location.

A search of Jamario Roger Caldwell age 32 turned up more than 50 charges since age 18 most were dismissed. The reasons for dismissal range from lack of evidence to lost paperwork. 

We was convicted in 2010, 2011 and 2016. Caldwell had his probation revoked in 2019 and spent 3 months in prison being released in March of 2020.

A go fund me has been started to help the family with funeral expenses. So far the effort has raised $585 of the $15,000 goal.

Charlotte's Da Creek Claims Another Life

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD) is investigating a homicide that occurred around 11 a.m. on Monday morning.

CMPD Officers responded to the 400 block of Peachtree Drive South about a call to assist Medic. 

When they arrived, they found a man, 24-year-old Curtis Gregory Lampkin, with an apparent gunshot wound. Lampkin was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.

Lampkin had a history of arrests but had avoided prison since he was released in 2019.

His convictions in Mecklenburg and Iredell counties included, common law robbery, felony B&E, larceny after B&E, and probation and parole violations. 

Charlotte's Latest Homicide Victim A Familiar Path

By most accounts Charlotte's latest homicide victim's life choices led to the rather tragic but standard outcome. 

According to CMPD Detectives with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department’s Homicide Unit are conducting a homicide investigation in the 100 block of Tom Hunter Rd. in the North Tryon Division.

On Thursday, October 3, 2024, shortly before 10:00 p.m., North Tryon Division officers responded to an assault with a deadly weapon with injury call for service in the 100 block of Tom Hunter Rd. Upon arrival, officers discovered a male victim suffering from an apparent gunshot wound. MEDIC pronounced the victim deceased on scene.

Shortly after, officers received an assault with a deadly weapon with injury call for service in the 6700 block of N. Tryon St. where they located a second victim suffering from a gunshot wound. The juvenile victim was transported by MEDIC with life-threatening injuries.

Just before 11:30 p.m., a third victim arrived at a nearby hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Detectives are working to determine the relationship between the three victims.

Homicide Unit detectives responded to the scene to conduct an investigation and Crime Scene Search responded to process the scene and collect physical evidence. Representatives from the CMPD’s Operations Command, Victim Services, the Charlotte Fire Department and MEDIC also assisted.

Gunned down on the streets that ruled his life.

Derrick Answon Baker was a street thug arrested more than a dozen times since turning 18, every one of those charges dismissed by the courts and Mecklenburg County DA or resulted in a sentence of time served or probation. 

He was released from the MCSO jail just 2 weeks ago. 

The conviction on any one of those charges a decade prior would have led to an active prison sentence and Baker would likely be alive this morning rather than laid out on a cold metal tray at the medical examiner's office. The only thing differentiating him from the others a toe tag as his only ID.

Proving once again incarceration saves lives.

Baker's arrests include:

Assault on a female (6)

Trespassing (5)

Robbery with a dangerous weapon (2)

Breaking and entering motor vehicle

Possession of a stolen weapon

Possession of a weapon by felon (3)

Possession of a weapon on school property

Common law robbery

Carrying a concealed weapon

PWISD marijuana

Resisting arrest

Probation violation

 

Illegals Have Overrun North Carolina's Criminal Justice System

The media is so left leaning that they won't tell you this on Eyewitness news at 6 o'Clock.

Out of the countless media types in Charlotte only Brett Jensen with WBT was brave enough to tell the story CP has been hearing from CMPD Officers.

But his detailed post on "X" below quickly took fire from the left - case in point @BenWike:

"Brett, look at this fucking cesspool of a comment section under your tweet. 

Half of them aren’t even real people but bots and foreign agents. Is this the engagement you are looking for? To what end? What deficit in you is being filled by espousing such tripe?"

Ben's not the only one upset that Brett Jensen will tell you the facts here Christina Brown having a nutty:

"If this is true, there should be public records. So where are they? There are no publicly available mugshots showing his name and picture for any of the crimes you have listed here. I wonder why?"

Brett Jensen WBT News via "X":

BREAKING: A man that shot a CMPD officer was an illegal immigrant, had been deported twice, and had a lengthy violent criminal record, a senior law enforcement official tells me. Nelson Javier Funez Reyes, 37, was shot and killed by officers on Sept. 22, after he shot Officer Kenneth Kludy in the thigh. Sources say the bullets came close to hitting his femoral artery. Kludy is recovering at home and will be fine. However, questions abound as to why the incident managed to take place. Reyes was previously deported on Oct. 1, 2005. And then again on July 11, 2017, according to a database. In between his two deportations in 2005 and 2017, Reyes had accumulated a lengthy violent criminal record, per the database. Besides having multiple traffic violations in Fairfax, Va., in Alamance & Carteret counties and areas in NC, Reyes was arrested on May 3, 2015, in Mecklenburg Co., for assaulting a female, assault by pointing a gun, and communicating threats. Three days later on May 6, 2015, he was arrested from charges stemming from Sept. 2, 2011, in Durham Co., for assaulting a female, larceny of property and interfering with emergency equipment. Both arrests were later dropped. The first was dropped, according to records, because the witness failed to show in court. The second offenses in Durham were all dismissed by the district attorney. There was no indication as to why. Reyes was again arrested in Mecklenburg Co., according to officials, on Jan. 29, 2016, for again assaulting a female, pointing a gun, larceny and communicating threats. A law enforcement official said the charges appear to have been dismissed so as Reyes could yet again be deported. Then on Sept. 22, when Reyes was shot and killed following officers pulling him over after matching the description of a call for assault with a deadly weapon, according to a CMPD statement. Officers initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle in the 200 block of E. Arrowood Rd. when a suspect produced a handgun causing an exchange of gunfire, per CMPD. Reyes was later pronounced dead.

Nelson Javier Funez Reyes was just one of many violent criminals who are running lose in North Carolina and idiots like "Ben" who scream racist when this fact is pointed out lose their minds.

Any day of the week MCSO arrest blotter is loaded with hispanics in numbers that five years ago would surprise people. How many are here illegally? Hard to say perhaps as high as 50%. Maybe higher.

Jesus Reyes Lopez

The 20-year-old man accused of starting a fire that left 130 Charlotteans homeless this week is an undocumented immigrant and will likely be deported no matter the outcome of his trial for arson and attempted murder. Jesus Reyes Lopez is a Mexican citizen and is wanted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for being in the country illegally.

Back in 2017 when he was arrested Mecklenburg County Sheriff Carmichael noted that he would be deported once he was released from prison. He was convicted of 2 counts of First Degree Arson and sentenced to a maximum of six years and two months.

He was paroled from prison in 2022 and never was deported. The now 27 year old was last known to be living in Georgia. 

Luis Perez-Valencia

A 34-year-old illegal alien in Wilmington, NC has pleaded guilty to the rape of an 11-year-old Leland girl.

This afternoon Luis Perez-Valencia admitted to raping the girl on two separate occasions back in 2011 and attempting to engage in intercourse another time that same year.

A DNA test proved that Perez-Valencia got the 11-year-old pregnant.

Judge Thomas Lock sentenced him to 16 to 20 years in prison. Perez-Valencia is required to complete sex offender treatment while in prison. He must also register as a sex offender and will be under GPS satellite monitoring for the rest of his life.

Perez-Valencia will be deported from the United States after he serves his time. 

He is still incarcerated at a cost to North Carolina taxpayers and is due to be released in 2027.

Untold Numbers

There are 100's of arrests of illegals in North Carolina just last month alone. 

Crimes of rape and murder are many, violent crimes, robbery and DWI often causing death or severe injuries. Yet the liberal media, courts, DAs, judges and sheriffs look the other way.
