“The adult services section, which previously contained solicitations for sex, has been replaced on the Craigslist homepage with a sign saying “censored.”

They have finally put a block on the hoes & pimps of the Craigslist world. Not only hoes & pimps, but apparently people who were also trafficking MINORS for sex & making them work 10 hour shifts! In a letter, 17 attorney generals accused the website of encouraging prostitution and promoting child trafficking.  The section still remains uncensored in other countries.

Three teens who were on a 69-name hit list posted on Facebook have been killed in the past 10 days in a southwestern Colombian town, officials say.

Police say they do not know who posted the list or why the names are on it.

“It is still not clear,” Colombian national police spokesman Wilson Baquero told CNN. “This is part of the investigation.”

But officials note that a criminal gang known as Los Rastrojos and a Marxist guerrilla group called the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia operate in the area.

The hit list on Facebook, which was posted August 17, gave the people named three days to leave the town of Puerto Asis or be executed, said Volmar Perez Ortiz, a federal official whose title is defender of the public.

Police at first thought the posting was a joke, Perez said in a statement issued Saturday. But the publication of a second list with 31 additional names led authorities to convene a special security meeting Friday, Perez said.

The posting of the lists and the meetings occurred after the first two killings, which took place August 15, Perez said.

On that day, officials say, 16-year-old student Diego Ferney Jaramillo and 17-year-old CD retailer Eibart Alejandro Ruiz Munoz were shot and killed while riding a motorcycle on the road between Puerto Asis and the town of Puerto Caicedo.

Both their names were later found on the first published hit list.

Also on the list was Norbey Alexander Vargas, 19, who was killed August 20, Perez said. Another young man, 16-year-old student Juan Pablo Zambrano Anacona, was wounded in the same incident when he gave chase to the assassins, Perez said.

Colombian media said Monday the number of those threatened has grown and panic has overtaken Puerto Asis, with some parents sending their children out of town because their names are on the Facebook notice.

The names of 31 women were posted on the other list, said Radio RCN, semana.com and other news outlets.

Residents have been overcome with “panic and anxiety,” several news outlets quoted Putumayo state official Andres Gerardo Verdugo as saying.

Several of those residents posted their concerns on Twitter, an online messaging site.

“Panic in Puerto Asis, Putumayo, because of threats against young people,” wrote a user who goes by JuanSepulvedah. “Our youth must be protected.”

Someone who posted under the name JulianEco brought up the Facebook connection.

Damn, Ok so I pushed and shoved over Madden or 2K before, but to kill 3 people? Sheesh!

The video of Officer Devin Sparks repeatedly hitting Michael DeHerrera of Denver with a department-issued piece of metal wrapped in leather, picking him up roughly and slamming a car door on his ankle has prompted Independent Monitor Richard Rosenthal to push for the firing of Sparks and Corporal Randy Murr.

Rosenthal, who monitors police internal investigations, maintains Sparks and Murr are unfit for the force because they didn’t tell the truth about the April 4, 2009 incident. Rosenthal also believes the use of force by Sparks was excessive. The Denver City Council earlier this year agreed to pay $17,500 to settle a federal lawsuit brought by DeHerrera alleging excessive force.Read the rest of this shocking story here.

“Breaking new ground for citizen journalism in Jamaica, TVJ moments ago broadcast footage supplied by a member of the public showing what appears to be a policeman executing a murder suspect. Commissioner of Police Owen Ellington has ordered the immediate arrest of the policemen involved in the incident. Ellington also instructed that stop orders be placed on the policemen involved at all ports of entry. “The entire Jamaica Constabulary Force family deeply regrets this incident and we want to apologize to the family of the person involved and all decent citizens of Jamaica. I will take every action necessary to prevent any future occurrence and I am asking citizens to be courageous, strong, and alert,” he said in a statement. The video taken in Buckfield, St Ann, shows policemen beating and shooting to death a man lying on the ground who appeared to be unarmed and subdued. The Commissioner applauded the bravery of the citizen who brought the footage to the attention of the wider public and encouraged any other witnesses of police misconduct to do likewise, “…as this provides the best opportunity for the police to rid the force of those members who would want to act outside of the law.” Events captured in the video contrasted with the version of events reported by the Constabulary Communication Network and subsequently published on the Jamaica Observer website earlier today. ”
