CPD: Number of Arrests of Armed Felons
2011-01-08 19:42:00 I'm not sure if you know this, but it is a federal offense (and a felony at that) to be a convicted felon and in possession of any firearm. So when some dude, or dudette, with a felony record gets arrested with a handgun by CPD, one would think that these case would get referred over to the U.S. Attorney's Office for prosecution.There are several good reasons for this:It gets the criminal out 26th & California (County Jail) and into the Fed's hands. This saves the county (a/k/a us) money.It means the prosecution gets handled by the feds. Saves us money.The U.S. Attorneys office has an excellent conviction rate, far better than that of our local State's Attorney. More likely...

China's Rio Tinto Arrests. A Rapid Fire Historical Perspective.
2009-08-19 19:22:00 Sometimes big events can be so complicated, controversial and unwieldy, there is hardly any point in reading current reports because they are likely to be so biased and/or inaccurate as to be of no value. In those instances, particularly when the underlying topic is not of huge interest to me, I generally pretty much stop reading articles on it and just wait for the dust to settle. I think the common wisdom is that real dust settling (and releasing of key documents) and gaining of perspective usually takes around 50 years. And though I would love to be able to look at China's recent Rio Tinto arrests from the perspective of fifty years hence, that is obviously not possible right now. So instead, I will turn to an excellent FT.com by Arthur Kroeber, somewhat mis-titled, "Rio Tinto arrests reveal China has growing-up to do." The thrust of the article is that China is a relatively safe place in which to do business, particularly as compared to Russia. I agree. China has done...

China's Rio Tinto Arrests. Everyone Just Move Along....
2009-07-14 12:26:00 By Steve Dickinson The recent detentions of four Rio Tinto executives has caused much concern. However, the situation has been misunderstood by most in the West because of a failure to understand the legal background. The Rio Tinto employees are accused of conducting industrial espionage. Specifically, they are accused of bribery and theft of trade secrets. These acts are crimes under Chinese law. Therefore, if the accusations are factual, the four Rio Tinto employees are subject to criminal sanction in China, with typical prison sentences of up to four years. The only thing unusual about this case is the decision of the Chinese government to treat the matter not as a commercial trade secrecy violation, but rather, as a theft of state secrets. I assume the reason for this is that the allegedly stolen information is in fact highly secret and damaging to the position of the Chinese companies in the iron ore price negotiations with Rio Tinto. The Chinese are probably avoiding a crim...

Indonesia Arrests 2 Top Militants
2008-04-15 02:17:00 Indonesian police say they are questioning two top members of the regional terrorist network Jemaah Islamiyah. Suspects Abdul Rohim and Agus Purwanto were returned to Indonesia after being arrested several weeks ago in Malaysia. Terrorism expert Sidney Jones says Abdul Rohim is thought to have replaced Zarkasih as Jemaah Islamiyah leader (emir), after Zarkasih's arrest last year. "He was a member of the central command, he is rumored to possibly be the new emir, or the caretaker emir [of Jemaah Islamiyah] ... the last known position that he had was a head of education for the central command," Jones explained."This is big because it is two more influential people, with one in particular at the top ranks of Jemaah Islamiyah, meaning that the police have pretty clearly penetrated the structure," Jones said. Police say Agus Purwanto is wanted in connection with violence in Poso, on Indonesia's eastern Sulawesi island, where sporadic violence between Muslims and Christians continues t...
