As Beyoncé has been excitedly posting about wrapping up her final OTRII tour dates, it seems her former employee has been posted up with the authorities trying to file a civil harassment restraining order against the mommy of three.  View this post on Instagram Thank you to my hometown for being the loudest crowd so far. 7 more shows. Phoenix let’s go!A post shared by Beyoncé (@beyonce) on Sep 19, 2018 at 7:34pm PDT According to legal documents obtained by The Blast, Queen Bey's former drummer, Kimberly Thompson, is claiming the singer practices "extreme witchcraft," using the powers of the underworld to control her finances and run surveillance around her. In the bizarre court documents, Thompson states Mrs. Carter has been harassing her through methods that include “extreme witchcraft, dark magic” and “magic spells of sexual molestation.” Thompson, who worked for Bey for seven years, not only believes the Lemonade singer has been tapping her phones and controlling her finances, but she also “murdered" her pet kitten. The reason why Thompson believes Knowles-Carter is the culprit is unclear, but she is adamant that Yoncé is to blame. Thompson's request for a temporary restraining order was denied by the Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday; however, a restraining order hearing is scheduled for October 11. In an email to Pitchfork, Thompson confirms her allegations by writing “all accusations... I survived are real."Outside of working for Bey, Thompson also played drums in the Fred Armisen-led house band during the first season of Late Night With Seth Meyers; however, no accusations of witchcraft against him have surfaced yet. Neither Thompson nor Beyoncé have publicly addressed the situation.Liking this content?

Big game hunting is a no go in 2018. After a photo from trophy hunter holding a dead leopard circulated online, social media users were quick to call her out for what they believe to be a barbaric act. The woman in the photo has only been identified as Britany or Britani L by David Bonnouvrier, co-founder of the anti-elephant poaching organization “Knot on my Planet.”“A very large male Leopard recently killed by of the safari club international based in Tucson AZ call them and give them a piece of your mind,” Bonnouvrier wrote on Instagram.According to Fox News, the woman is a member of the Arizona-based Safari Club International (SCI). The photo stirring up controversy was first posted online on Sept. 7 for being what the members call a “record” kill.His original post was reshared by international supermodel Naomi Campbell. #Repost #davidbonnouvrier ・・・ A very large male Leopard recently killed by Britani L.

And that's why she posed with her kill? And why her home is filled with trophies from her other conservation efforts? I don't think so. https://t.co/UMz3XjgfwX— felicia weiner (@keiraryushi) September 10, 2018Since President Donald Trump has taken office, big game hunting has been on the rise, reports Newsweek.

Another tragic notch was added to the United States' belt of mass shootings on Thursday when a woman opened fire at a Maryland Rite Aid distribution center. The suspect, Snochia Moseley, fatally shot three co-workers and left three others wounded before turning the gun on herself. The 26-year-old was a temporary Rite Aid employee and described as a typically "nice" person. Her motive for the shooting remains unknown. Suspected shooter in Maryland RiteAid distribution center shooting is Snochia Moseley, 26, of Baltimore: law enforcement officials - @NBCNews pic.twitter.com/NPRhVbVySK— Shawn McKenzie 🇺🇸 (@SMcK17) September 20, 2018 “Normally, she was a nice person, but she came in in a bad mood,” said Mike Carre, who works next door at a furniture distribution company, recounting what Rite Aid employees told him. “She wanted to pick a fight. And then she started shooting.”CBS News reports the wife of a Rite-Aid employee said she'd been in a verbal altercation with a colleague after a meeting and "went off.""She didn't have a particular target. She was just shooting," Krystal Watson told the outlet. Moseley is said to have reported to her work day as usual; however, unbeknownst to the rest of the workplace, she brought along a legally registered 9mm handgun. Around 9 a.m., she opened fire outside the facility before making her way inside. Hartford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler believes she had “two, perhaps three” extra clips of ammunition. “We do not at this time have a motive for this senseless crime…there were people shot inside and outside the business,” Gahler continued. “There are a lot of questions that still need to be answered in this."In the search for a motive, officials have turned to Moseley's social media accounts. She described herself as the “Pretty kool, mellow type," on her Facebook "About Me" section, not a far call from friends and neighbors who described her as a "nice girl." However, her page also reveals that she believed in the "law of retaliation," citing her favorite Bible verse as Exodus 21:24: "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."Whether her actions were motivated by revenge have yet to be determined. She now joins the 4 percent of female mass shooters. Adam Lankford, a criminologist at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, reveals that mass killings, or  homicides involving three or more victims, are rarely carried out by women. According to The Washington Post, the most recent mass shootings by women involved three people being wounded in April at YouTube headquarters in San Bruno, California. In 2012, three people were fatally shot at the University of Alabama in Huntsville by a professor who was angry after being denied tenure.Police say the three wounded victims are expected to survive. The identities of the deceased victims have not been released. Moseley later died from a self-inflicted gunshot to the head. As employees and residents try to wrap their head around the tragedy, Maryland Governor Larry Hogan offered words of comfort.We are closely monitoring the horrific shooting in Aberdeen. Our prayers are with all those impacted, including our first responders. The State stands ready to offer any support. https://t.co/fzugpo8C1Z— Governor Larry Hogan (@GovLarryHogan) September 20, 2018“The First Lady and I are grieving for the loss of life in today’s shooting in Harford County, and praying that those who were injured fully recover," he said. Now, check these out: Marie Faye Fatally Shot In Her Bronx Apartment By Her Boyfriend, An Off-Duty Corrections OfficerKorryn Gaines shot and killed by Baltimore County police, 5-year-old injured in gunfireNew Study Finds 8 Percent Of Male Homicides In The U.S. Are Committed By Police...

Colin Kaepernick’s time away from the field may finally be coming to an end. When TMZ caught up to Kaepernick’s attorney, Mark Gregagos, who is representing him in his collusion case against the NFL, the lawyer revealed Kaepernick’s status as a free agent may soon be over.“I will just say stay tuned, that next week there may be some news,” Gregagos told TMZ. When Gregagos was further pressed by the interviewer, who alluded to a possible signing with the Miami Dolphins, Gergagos suggested there are two teams who may be considering signing the athlete.“I’ve got two other teams that will remain nameless," he said. In the video below, Gregagos alludes very cheekily to the teams in question, hinting they may or may not be the Oakland Raiders and the New England Patriots. According to Vice Sports, the Raiders would be a logical pick for Kaepernick who hails from San Francisco and received kind words from the owner’s son, Mark Davis, who gave a nod to Nike for signing the former 49ers player. Regardless of where he ends up, signing Kaepernick has a now undeniably positive impact on the receiving team. As evidenced by the spike in Nike sales after Kaepernick became the face of the company's recent campaign, adding him to any team’s roster could be in their best financial interest. Even when unsigned, Kaepernick’s 49ers jersey was still in the NFL’s top 50 highest sellers, Jemele Hill reported. I’m just here to remind folks that last year Colin Kaepernick was in the top 50 in NFL jersey sales, despite not being on a roster. Nike made a business move.— Jemele Hill (@jemelehill) September 3, 2018And while he's proven to be advantageous to corporations, his social impact is wild. Kaepernick has become a symbol for the Black Lives Matter movement and is widely hailed as a social justice leader. Adding him to the roster would be a wise move for any NFL team as Kaepernick's seeming blackballing has made apparent the NFL's lack of regard for the black community. Now, check these out:Colin Kaepernick’s Case Against The NFL Is Headed To TrailColin Kaepernick To Receive One Of Harvard University’s Highest HonorsColin Kaepernick Hits Back At Blackballing NFL Owners In 5-Word Instagram...

After three and a half years in jail while awaiting trial for the murder of a security guard, Suge Knight has been sentenced to 28 years in prison.On Tuesday, TMZ reported the co-founder of Death Row Records pleaded ‘no contest’ to voluntary manslaughter charges.The charges derived from an incident between Knight and Terry Carter in January 2015 on the set of Straight Outta Compton, CNN reports. In a video of the hit-and-run, Knight can be seen driving up to a restaurant near the movie’s set before Cle “Bone” Sloan, a security guard, approached. After spending a few moments talking, the car suddenly jerks backward, sending Sloan to the ground, and Knight urges the car forward and over Sloan’s body. Carter was also run over during the deadly exchange. According to the BBC, and in accordance with California law, a no contest plea holds the same weight as a guilty plea. “I’m surprised he pleaded out,” Carter’s daughter, Crystal, said outside of court, The Associated Press reports. “Normally he likes the cameras to be on him 24/7.”According to CNN, Knight claims he acted in self-defense, protecting himself from Sloan, who he said was carrying a gun. While California usually dictates 11 years for voluntary manslaughter charges, People Magazine reports the 53-year-old will be serving 22 years in prison for the act and an additional five due to this being Knight’s third strike in court. The first strike came in 1992 when Knight was charged with two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, and the second was from 1997 when Knight violated his probation.The years Knight spent awaiting trial will be docked from his overall sentencing. He'll also serve three years of parole. Knight’s official sentencing is set for October, the BBC reports.Now, check these out:The Mystery Of Tupac’s Murder Could Be Very, Very Close To Being Solved‘Straight Outta Compton’ Helps Director F.

Auntie Maxine luh the kids. She's encouraging us to not only reclaim our time, but to also reclaim hip hop. At the 48th Annual CBC Legislative Conference, Congresswoman Maxine Waters moderated a panel of influential emcees. Common, Rapsody, YBN Chardae, and DC-based artist, Bomani Armah graced the panel with their empowering lyrics and freestyles.The congresswoman asked the panel to describe their motivation when it comes to their art. Bomani Armah, who has spent time "edu-taining" youth in the nation's capital, didn't participated in the cypher but has said in the past that children inspire his teach through spoken word. v YBN Cordae reminisced on what has inspired him, such as old school rappers, Big L and Rakem. Common, commended the young artist's old-school rap inspiration as its what he believes will be a contributing factor in building a successful career and legacy. "To know the history is to know what your future is gon' be," the veteran rapper told the audience.Common continued the conversation by explaining his thought process for the Academy-Award winning song, "Glory," which he wrote for the 2014 film, Selma. "I started thinking about Dr. King," the Chi-town rapper said, "I started thinking about the way he preached, and that's what made me start off by saying 'hands in the heavens, no man no weapon, formed against, yes, glory is destined."He continued, "The movement is a rhythm to us, freedom is like religion to us. Justice is juxtapositing us, justice or all just ain't specific enough.”Rapsody, the North Carolina born rapper, who so eloquently reminded us of our unrelenting power on the Black Girls Rock stage, dropped a few smooth bars on the audience, repping her hometown of Snowhill. "Not once did you hear me stutter, but you hung on every single word that I ever uttered. That's the power of music."But the most fire bar? YBN closed out his freestyle with a line that left the audience, and Auntie Maxine smiling from ear to ear: "I'ma raise my daughter to be just like Queen Maxine."Hip hop matters and will forever be relevant to black...

The Health and Human Services Department has confirmed to Senate staffers that the agency has lost track of 1,488 immigrant children, the Huffington Post reports. This announcement comes after the federal agency previously admitted at a Senate hearing late last year that it lost track of 1,475 children. This means the blunder has happened twice in less than a year. These missing children are unaccompanied minors transferred from immigration shelters to foster homes between April and June of 2018. After transferring the children, the department is supposed to check in with them to make sure they are alright. However, these check-ins are now impossible. The 1,488 lost children account for 13 percent of all children transferred from ICE care to foster homes.On Tuesday, Senate subcommittee members proposed bipartisan legislation that will require HHS to take increased responsibility for the migrant children's care, including after they're released from custody. The bill would make sure HHS takes more effective measures to prevent abuse, running background checks on sponsors prior to placing children with them and notifying state governments prior to sending children to said states.“The fact that HHS, which placed these unaccompanied minors with sponsors, doesn’t know the whereabouts of nearly 1,500 of them is very troubling,” noted Republican Senator Rob Portman of Ohio. “Many of these kids are vulnerable to trafficking and abuse, and to not take responsibility for their safety is unacceptable.”“The already challenging reality migrant children face is being made even more difficult and, too often, more dangerous,” said Democratic Senator Tom Carper of Delaware. “This simply doesn’t have to be the case and, as this legislation demonstrates, the solutions don’t have to be partisan.”According to CBS News, HHS spokesperson Caitlin Oakley denies reports declaring the children as "lost," noting, "Their sponsors, who are usually parents or family members, and in all cases have been vetted for criminality and ability to provide for them, simply did not respond or could not be reached when this voluntary call was made."Now, check these out: HHS Has Reportedly Lost Track Of 20 Percent Of Separated Toddlers' Parents, Putting Reunifications In Jeopardy'We Have An Orchestra Here:' Border Agent Jokes About Devastating Cries Of Detained Immigrant Kids In Leaked AudioFormer Obama Official Offers Explanation After Resurfaced 2014 Photos Of Immigrant Children In Cages Goes...
