Activist accused of multiple murders sent gifts to prosecutors
Activist accused of multiple murders sent gifts to prosecutors

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - A San Francisco community activist and life coach finds himself at the center of a legal storm, facing charges for a series of murders stretching back over two decades. Authorities allege that Shante Harris, once a prominent figure in local activism, targeted and eliminated potential witnesses against him, even boasting about these actions.

Harris, now held in a San Francisco jail, is charged with four murders. Investigators claim that two of the victims were killed because they were poised to testify in a previous murder case linked to Harris. One such instance involved Gerald White, who was set to appear before a grand jury in 2002. According to court documents, Harris allegedly confronted White, delaying his testimony. Tragically, White was found dead three days later, leaving behind eight children.

The affidavit reveals chilling details of Harris's alleged remarks to investigators, seemingly mocking the lack of witnesses against him. This attitude has deeply affected the victims' families. Frankie White, Gerald's sister, expressed her anguish over the loss, emphasizing the profound impact on her family.

In a separate incident, Harris was arrested in 2019 for the shooting death of Dietrich Whitley during a San Francisco block party. His attorney argued self-defense, citing previous altercations between the two men. However, charges were dropped last year when prosecutors felt unprepared to proceed to trial.

In a surprising gesture following the dismissal, Harris reportedly delivered a box of roses and a $100 Confederate bill to the District Attorney's office. This act, perceived as a thank you, left many with the impression that the case was closed. Yet, investigators continued their pursuit, offering a $100,000 reward for information on the cold cases.

Court-authorized wiretaps have since captured Harris discussing his past actions with his girlfriend, further complicating his defense. His attorney argues that these charges represent prosecutorial overreach and maintains that Harris will be cleared once all evidence is presented.

The family of Gerald White remains committed to seeking justice, attending every court hearing. White’s daughter, Tashara, who was only 14 when her father was killed, expressed hope for closure after years of pain, acknowledging that the wounds may never fully heal.

As the case unfolds, the community watches closely, grappling with the possibility that a figure once seen as an advocate for change could be tied to such crimes.

Lawsuit alleges pay-for-promotion scheme in NYPD

NEW YORK, NY – Allegations of a culture rife with retaliation, favoritism, and a “pay-to-play” scheme have surfaced within one of the nation’s most influential police departments. This comes as four separate lawsuits have been filed by former NYPD chiefs, painting a troubling picture of the department’s inner workings.

The lawsuits specifically accuse former Police Commissioner Ed Camthen and former Chief of Department Jeffrey Majorie of demanding $15,000 for promotions and transfers to prestigious units. These claims cast a shadow over the NYPD and the city, with many concerned about the integrity of a department tasked with public safety.

Therese Shepard, the department’s former Deputy Commissioner of Public Information, noted the absence of a formal policy governing transfers and promotions. She told reporters that decisions often lead to internal disagreements, though she denied any knowledge of outright corruption. “The NYPD still needs to establish clear standards for promotions and transfers,” she added.

The accusations extend beyond the police department, implicating Mayor Eric Adams and former top officials. The lawsuits claim that the former chiefs were forced out after raising concerns about alleged corruption. An attorney representing the chiefs stated that these men were sidelined to facilitate Mayor Adams’ political agenda and to silence those exposing corruption within his circle.

Despite the serious nature of these allegations, the NYPD has yet to provide a detailed response. Critics caution against jumping to conclusions, emphasizing that allegations alone do not equate to guilt. The department’s silence has only fueled speculation and concern among the public and city officials.

Efforts to reach the NYPD for comment were unsuccessful, leaving many questions unanswered. The unfolding legal battles promise to shed light on the alleged misconduct and its impact on the department’s reputation.

As the lawsuits progress, the city watches closely, aware that the outcomes could have far-reaching implications for the NYPD and its leadership. The integrity of one of the world’s largest police forces hangs in the balance as these serious claims are addressed.
