Zimmerman Taken Into Jail

After a judge revoked his bail on Friday, George Zimmerman had to meet with police in central Florida to be taken back into custody. The judge claimed that Zimmerman lied to the court about the finances he had available. Zimmerman will be housed in administrative confinement for his actions in the Trayvon Martin case. Police said that Zimmerman was quiet and cooperative about being taken back into custody. Zimmerman bought $500 worth of items from the commissary. Zimmerman said the only thing he was worried about was coming out of hiding and going back into public scrutiny. Zimmerman is being held without bail.

Voters Rally in Wisconsin

The state of Wisconsin has been critically split over its governor since Scott Walker took office in early March of 2011. The "feud" in the state started when Governor Walker passed bills that limited raises for public employees among other things. The result was somewhat of a civil war within the state. Many people have organized efforts to support the Governor in the recall efforts and others have done their best to tear him down. Many people think that the economic future of Wisconsin depends on the results of the recall election. This is the cause of many political tours around the State that has generated a lot of excitement around the election.

Missing Suspect in Shooting

A man opened fire in a food court in a Toronto, Canada mall. The man killed one person and injured seven others. This man is still on the loose and police have not issued a description of the man at this time. The police do however think they have identified the shooter because of the victim of the shooting. The police do not want to release a description because they think it is important to receive  opinion from the public and not base their suspect off of relation. The police are fairly sure that the shooting was gang related because all casualties were known gang members besides one 13 year old boy who was in critical condition.

Bear Eats Killers Corpse

In a forest in Canada the dismembered body of  murder Rory Nelson was found. However there was a catch. The reason for his condition was a bear. Authorities believe that the murderer was out for a drive when he died in his 1986 Volkswagen Jetta. He may have laid there for some time when a black bear came across him, broke into the car, and drug his corpse into the woods where he ate parts of him and left the rest of him lay. Police have gathered this information because of animal prints on the driver's side and many scratches. Wagner was charged for the 1993 killing of a man he thought had sexually assaulted one of his relatives.

New Details About Amelia Earhart uncovered

A group of researchers called the International Group For Historic Aircraft Recovery had been looking into the disappearance of Amelia Earhart when they found some clues that may solve one of America's most famous mysteries. When going through radio transmissions that were originally dismissed, the group realized that they were calls for help from Earhart right before she disappeared on her famous attempt to fly around the world. This was part of a conference dedicated to the search and recovery of the wreckage of her plane and the search for her remains. The group calls this new evidence " the smoking gun that was swept under the rug"

Marvel's First Gay Superhero is Getting Married

In a comic set to come out next week, One of Marvel's superheroes is going to get married. However there is an unusual twist for comic books, in that thhe superhero, Northstar, is gay. Marvel was the first major comic book company to have an openly gay superhero fetaured in some of its comics. Northstar was a strong comic for Marvel throughout the 80's and 90's but his sales dropped drasticly after it was revealed that he was gay. Marvel is using this character to promote AIDS and mental health awareness, as these issues have been blended into the story of Northstar. When asked his opinion on the comic slated to come out Conor Kilpatrick said, "(I) believe the issue is a perfect fit for Marvel: The X-Men have been, from the beginning, an allegory for civil rights, so it makes sense that in a time when gay rights is such a front-burner issue in American society that Marvel Comics would face it head-on with their X-Men characters.” The new comic is certain to have a lot of media and fan attention surrounding it.
