Three bank robbers held bank employee’s family hostage on Thursday night Oct 12.

Three armed men Thursday evening held the family of a SunTrust Bank employee. The men also summoned and held another bank employee to the house. “They were held hostage throughout the night,” FBI spokesman Steve Emmett said.

 The robbers were not successful in getting into the vault, because the employee did not have the code. I guess the robbers kidnapped the wrong person. But they still got away with “Undisclosed amount of Cash” My guess is a couple of hundreds laying around.. The family is safe now but the robbers still got away.

This is something you don’t see everyday. Last week the city had one of their old landmarks go down again. It’s becoming the same story these days. Old buildings go down and replaced with new expensive condos. Price range of $300k to $1.5 million

I first heard of this guy back when I lived in Dallas. When I moved back to Atlanta he started DJ’ing at V-103. It was great to listen to him again.  What I didn’t realize was that he was working for both K104 in dallas and V-103 in Atlanta. Check out his interesting sneaker show here.

ATLANTA Hundreds of Atlanta high school seniors were chastised and cheered today by comedian Bill Cosby and civil rights icon Joseph Lowery.

Cosby was a former high school dropout who went on to earn a doctoral degree and is now a staunch supporter of higher education. He was the keynote speaker at Lowery’s sixth annual lecture series on civic participation. The two men shared a stage at Frederick Douglass High School in northwest Atlanta, which hosted the event for Atlanta Public Schools seniors. read on

Henry County jail officials are still trying to figure out how four inmates slipped out of the recreation yard Wednesday night, but speculate the quartet had outside help.

“I think someone may have come in the night before and cut the fence,” Lt. Scott Perry said Thursday morning. “It was a very small hole for them to climb through.”

Latest news is that they caught two so far. My guess is that there already in alabama

My goodness $100,000 reward for the information to getting Jennifer Wilbanks. This reward kinda of puts the Georgia State reward for the shooting of the judge in Atlanta a joke. Now they called off the search. Guess who their talking too. Yep the boyfried. Personally i would be seriously offended if the cops were to ask me to take a lie detector test. You got nothing to hide? You don’t think a lie detector test can be wrong? check this quote out from http://www.totse.com/en/law/justiceforall/liedctr.html

David Thoreson Lykken estimates that lie-control polygraph tests are about 70 percent accurate. (Remember, though, that choosing “heads” or “tails” of a flipped coin can be accurate 50 percent of the time.) Accuracy of 70 percent is not impressive, but it is high enough to talk meaningfully of beating a polygraph test.

and that ain’t all. Tons of google results about false lie detector tests. The last thing you need is to fighting for your life in courts for something you didn’t do….
