Today police announced a second arrest in the Tim Bosma case with details to be released later this afternoon.
Last night I spoke with former Toronto police investigator Ross McLean about the Bosma case.
Ross McLean provides an update on the Tim Bosma murder case.
The devastation in Oklahoma is hard to fathom. The pictures and the videos only tell part of the story. The remainder is told in the human stories that you will see and hear over coming days.
Right now people need help and they need it fast to cover basic needs like food and water. Hours after the storm ripped through Moore, Oklahoma my friends at Mercury One, Glenn Beck and Joe Kerry, left Dallas with truckloads of basic goods. You can help them deliver more.
Mercury One will pass on 100% of all money raised to those in need, no administrative overhead. If you can give, this is the charity I recommend.
Here are a couple of pictures taken early this morning by Paige Perry with The Blaze.
More from Paige and crew here.
There are many more stories to come. Please if you can give, give now.

It asked, “Do you identify as a sexual minority (e.g. lesbian, gay, bisexual, two-spirited, queer or transgender)?”.
Read the whole thing and weep for the decline of Western civilization.

Here’s more evidence that public unions are out of their minds.
The Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU), representing LCBO employees, has filed a gender-discrimination complaint against the liquor retailer with the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario.
Their argument? OPSEU alleges the LCBO is discriminating against women, since 70% of their casual workers — those working less than 40 hours, with fewer benefits — are women. Read more…
