Second Arrest Made In Kidnappings by 2 Who Posed as Police
By Allison Klein

D.C. police have charged a second suspect in a series of abductions and robberies committed by large men who pretended to be police officers.
Rodorrio Kittrell, 33, turned himself in Tuesday, a day after officers charged his alleged partner, Caliss Johnson, 41, with the abductions in Northwest and Northeast Washington.
Police believe the men flashed official-looking badges and guns before they accosted their victims. They stole bank cards and used them to get cash, police said, and also fondled female victims. Police said the men were easier to identify and apprehend than the average suspect because of their girth -- Johnson weighs about 350 pounds and Kittrell about 250.
The suspects were taken into custody after police released surveillance footage of one of the men using a bank machine in Maryland. Both were held without bond yesterday after they appeared in D.C. Superior Court.
When Johnson was arrested, he admitted he was involved in all three recent kidnappings and robberies and told investigators that Kittrell was his partner in two of the crimes, according to charging documents filed in court.
The documents say that in one of the crimes, on Friday, the suspects approached a couple as they sat in a car in front of a hotel on Fourth Street NE. The suspects showed a badge and displayed guns, then asked the man for his driver's license and registration, according to the documents.
They handcuffed the man, then went with the couple to their rented room. The suspects took a bank card from the man and made him tell the female victim his personal identification number, the documents say. The suspects then drove the female victim to a bank machine, and they completed five transactions, the papers say.
They drove the woman around the city for a while, stole money from her, then released her, according to the charging papers.
The first abduction happened a day earlier, about 12:15 a.m. in the 3000 block of M Street NW, in the heart of Georgetown, when a man with a badge stopped a woman and accused her of driving a stolen car. He put the woman in his car, threatened her with a gun and used her bank card to withdraw money before releasing her, police said.
The last abduction happened about 1:15 a.m. Sunday near 13th and K streets NW. The men pulled alongside a car at a traffic light and told the couple that they were being arrested for speeding, police said. The robbers used the male victim's bank card to withdraw money and buy gasoline and then released the pair, police said.
Police Chief Charles H. Ramsey said yesterday that the crimes stood out because the assailants preyed on unsuspecting victims and pretended to be police officers.
"Police impersonation is something we're always concerned about because they catch people off guard," Ramsey said in an interview on Washington Post Radio.
Investigators have not recovered the badges or gun used in the crimes. Ramsey said people can verify that the person pulling them over is an officer by calling 911 and asking the operator to confirm whether it is a legitimate stop. People also could drive at the speed limit to a well-lighted area or the closest police station.
All officers should carry a badge and an identification card, which they must present if asked, he said.

How many years do you think rodorrio kittrell should get in jail for posing as an police officer?
My question is why did the writer of this article feel it was important that these are "large" men? Wouldn't any man in uniform or flashing a badge be imposing (and illegal)? Newswriters need to stay on topic and off-bias.
In answer to your question: These are obviously disturbed individuals who are not going to be rehabilitated. I would advocate life at the very least. We do not need people like this roaming our streets.

What do you think are the odds?
I have my passport but my bf doesn't yet. His birth cert. has his moms last name, but then they changed it a few months after his birth to his dads last name. Now ANY piece of ID my bf has, is under his dad's last name. We have to get all of this paperwork done to obtain his legal name change b/c it wasn't 100% done according to the gov's records. I wanted to go to the states for my b-day for one day of shopping. We both called Customs Canada on separate times and explained the situtation. The operator told me it was fine, and when my bf called the operator told him that info was all right to him, but it all depends on the US guard. Now my bf has a photocopy of his live birth with his dad's last name on it. It has all the info and includes both names of his parents. Now I figure with that info, what are our chances of being turned away?
What do you think are the odds?
not that much if you explain the situation and have the documents to prove it chances are theyll let you through.. its a plus if you can speak proper english.......
Reply:I think you should be fine! I got into Canada once without any form of id and they stopped us. It was all cool in the end:)
Reply:A birth certificate isn't good enough anymore. YOU have to have a valid PASSPORT to enter the country. And it takes 6 weeks to 2 months to get one, if, and that is if, ALL paperwork is approved and checks out to issue a Passport.
Odds are ZERO - that you can get in. Or 100% you will be turned away.
Reply:you may get it but will have to go through a lot of red tape. Probably 25%.
Reply:There are no such thing as chances. If God wills it, it will happen.
Reply:you should be fine
Reply:Get the drivers license to match all paperwork and you should be fine
Reply:i just got my passport 11 days after applying at the nearest post office

They are not disregarding any law.
Federal law prohibits states from enforcing federal immigration laws. CT is not trying to enforce federal immigration laws.
CT is providing a state issued ID for people -- which is completely within its constitutional and statutory rights.
Can you cite what laws you think CT is breaking? The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) issues a Non-Driver Photo Identification Cards (ID) to any applicant who does not possess a valid motor vehicle operator's license or whose Connecticut license is presently under suspension. The applicant must be a Connecticut resident. ID cards are issued three to five years depending on the person's date of birth.
Note: If an applicant ever applies for a Connecticut Driver's License, the identification card must be surrendered when the driver's license is issued.
To obtain an ID card, qualified persons must apply at any Full Service DMV Branch Office, or the Stamford, Willimantic or Winsted Satellite offices (new issue ID cards will not be processed at the Putnam Satellite office, the Photo License Centers/Buses or AAA offices) and present the following:
Your certified Birth Certificate or valid Passport (hospital birth certificates or photocopies will not be accepted) and one additional form of identification from our list of acceptable forms of identification .
Note: If you are not a citizen of the United States , you will be required to show proof of your legal status in this country.
Holders of a B1 or B2 Visitor's Visa are not eligible for a driver's license or identification card unless a valid USCIS Employment Authorization Card and verification of an application pending for Lawful Permanent Residence is provided.
Foreign students with an F1 Visa status must show USCIS document I-20 and verification of current enrollment in a Connecticut school.
J1 Visa holders are required to show USCIS document DS2019.
H1B Visa holders are required to show a valid USCIS Employment Authorization Card and an employee verification letter from a Connecticut employer.
All applicants will be verified through USCIS for legal status before a driver's license/identification card will be issued.
Verification of Connecticut resident address (P.O. Box is not acceptable). Verification may be in the form of a utility bill, mortgage document, lease or rental agreement, or a postmarked letter dated within 90 days if the resident address is the same as the mailing address.
In accordance with the Social Security Act 42 U.S.C. 666 (a) (13), it will be required that the social security number of any applicant applying for an ID card be recorded on the Connecticut Identification Card Requirements and Application (form B-230). Your Social Security number will be verified with the Social Security Administration (SSA) before the ID card is issued. If you do not have a social security number, you must obtain a letter from SSA that states you are not eligible for a social security number. This letter must be submitted to DMV when applying for your ID card.
Completed Connecticut Identification Card Requirements and Application (form B-230). If applicant is under the age of eighteen, a parent, court-appointed legal guardian (certified court documentation must be presented), or spouse over 18 years of age must sign the Connecticut Identification Card Requirements and Application (form B-230).

Renewals:
DMV will send out renewal notices for ID cards to the current address we have on file.

Your ID card, which must be surrendered. If the ID card has been lost you must present one additional form of identification from our list of acceptable forms of identification .

If you have had a name change since your ID card was issued you must present a certified marriage license, certified divorce decree or a certified probate court name change document for name change other than in instances of marriage or divorce.
Verification of Connecticut resident address (P.O. Box is not acceptable). Verification may be in the form of a utility bill, mortgage document, lease or rental agreement, or a postmarked letter (dated within 90 days) if the resident address is the same as the mailing address.
Social Security number, which will be verified with the Social Security Administration (SSA) before the ID card is issued. If you do not have a social security number, you must obtain a letter from SSA that states you are not eligible for a social security number and present this to DMV.
$15 fee (cash or money order only made payable to DMV).
If applicant is under the age of eighteen, a parent, court-appointed legal guardian (certified court documentation must be presented), or spouse over 18 years of age must sign the application.
Duplicates (Replacements):
A person whose ID card has been lost, stolen or damaged may be issued a new identification card by applying at a DMV Full Service office, Satellite office or Photo License Center (not AAA or the Photo License Bus) and must present the following:
Certified copy of your birth certificate or valid passport (hospital birth certificates or photocopies will not be accepted) and one additional form of identification from list of acceptable forms of identification .

Suspended Licenses:
A person whose Connecticut operator's license is under suspension may apply for an ID card as long as all of the above requirements are met.
Revoked Licenses:
A person whose privileges have been revoked cannot obtain an ID card.
Coragryph Says New Haven CT Is Breaking No Laws But According To The States Own Web Site They Are, Do You See?
Links would have been sufficient.
IF what you are quoting is actually Connecticut law, and not just DMV policy, then you are correct and I was wrong.
IF Connecticut law requires proof of legal resident status, then New Haven would be violating state laws.
Not having researched Connecticut laws specifically, I don't know if it's just DMV policy, or actually state law.
And not having researched the New Haven proposal, I don't know whether it's a DMV-issued ID card, or something that the city is issuing under some other authority.
That's why it's important to check the actual text of the laws.
Thank you for providing this information.

Reply:The state's website tells you the requirements to obtain a STATE identification. There is no law that says that city or town identification cards have to meet the state requirements.
Reply:Well, I know that the 9/11 families won a lawsuit against Maryland, I think it was, for giving driver's licenses to illegal immigrants due to the REAL ID act requirements. I don't know if that would apply. Then there is the general 'no harboring' provisions of law, as well, which as far as I know have not been tested.
However, Coragryph and I fundamentally disagree on the issue of states' rights, to begin with.

It appears that all Federal guidelines are being followed.

Anyone withOUT authorization to be in the USA is by Fed law an illegal alien..subject to detention and deportation.
..IF Connecticut believes that "state laws" trump federal laws, then Connecticut should be immediately cut off from all federal funding until it succeeds from the nation...
...The security of the USA is based on a LAWS that ALL states must follow..Dislike of or disagreement with a law that endangers the nation is no justification for endangering the nation .
..Connecticut can do what it wants as a sovereign nation that supports itself, its citizens and pays access fees/tolls as negotiated with the USA.. (I sincerely doubt the state can fly all their essentials in and generate enough revenue to "support" their infrastructure and citizens...))
..empathy and a "desire" to help others is a laudable attribute BUT chaos reigns without laws. Humans doing what they want, when they want without constraints (laws) that protect the society as a whole degenerate into places where the strong prey against the weak,crime reigns and many suffer.
A desire to" help" illegals can easily be done by applying as a sponsor and providing employment.shelter etc.

Reply:Yes and it's ridiculous!
Reply:You are the one who is wrong, it is not a state issued ID.
"New Haven would be the first to issue an all-purpose municipal ID card for residents" Singling someone out is cowardly.
Reply:Ok, so what is your point? Coragryph either lives there, checked on line, and read the facts he stated somewhere.
If he was wrong, he was wrong, why write the book? If you knew all this already, why not just post it?
So quick to let everyone know someone was wrong - so what, guess what, we are all human.
Connecticut can do whatever they please and what ever is within their guidelines, so did you have a question for us here?
Reply:Do you have a question? The city of New Haven has begun issuing Resident ID cards to anyone who lives in New Haven regardless of their legal residency.
Mayor DeStefano's new idea to offer this ID program has opened the flood gates for immigration to come in and perform a "random search for immigrants", though this happened on the day after this program was approved.
The mayor basicallly crippled the city for days as people were afraid to leave their homes...citizens or not, whether you agree or not, there are illegal folks here that perform the day to day tasks and jobs that most of us would not do. We all might want to consider two different immigration reform plans: 1 for those already here and how to handle, 2) for anyone new coming to America...
The NewHaven ID Program is to give its residents access to certain immenities that the city has to offer, though in truth? I don't buy it. I think its just another way the local government has found to be local, not global. Most folks who are not citizens are not necessarily interested in checking out a library book, as the mayor has stated as one of its perks, NOR are they interested in using their new ID card to pay for parking - most illegal residents do not posess a drivers license, therefor are not legally driving (why would they want the city to be able to keep track of anyone breaking a law?). Most folks that are here illegally are more interested in putting food on their table, raising their children in a better place and figuring out how to continue life in a normal fashion.
The current policies on residency makes it near impossible for some to become residents. New Haven has taken a huge step sideways and two steps back...maybe the time spent on this project would have been better well spent by going for the senseless gun possession by children and feeding and insuring the hungry, but hardworking families that support the city.
The Mayor wanted this program, not the citizens.

Is truck driving a good career move?
I would like to become a team driver with my husband, we have driven all over the darn place in my car, and the career is very much making us both seriously consider it. We like to drive, we have no problem being on the road alot, we don't have many family commitments, and we want to become owner operators in the end, BUT, we wanted to hear from people doing it to find out if all the things we have been told is true.
A) We know Owner Operator is costly, but we are still leaning toward it for many reasons.
B) We are being told the average is 40k a year for a driver, is this true?
C) Is their anything we really need to be aware of that we are not. We are aware of long hours, many driving hours, being cramped up in the truck together, and so forth, is their something else we need to be aware of before we pay for school?
Is truck driving a good career move?
Truck driving is not a bad choice. You get to see the country and get paid for it. My husband is a driver. I went with him for a couple of years, and found that it is not right for me, though. Something to keep in mind being an O/O: keep about half of the money the two of you earn back for expenses on your truck. If you don't you can become tieds up in a truck that can not be serviced, flat tire, etc. Good luck.
Oh, and by the way, there is good money to be made there. My husband is no longer OTR, and still makes close to 60,000. Teams can make 200,000 or more if they get the miles. And if you really want to make GOOD money, look into driving for a truck dealership. You deliver the trucks, sleep in hotels, fly back. Single driver can make 175,000 per year.
Good luck!

My older brother is a police officer, me a teacher, my next brother is a business man and the youngest one is a long distance lorry driver ... Guess who is the most happiest and cheerfull living life with no extra worry? ... Yes, the lorry driver and he earns quite a good wage.
Reply:I think the income is more like 60000 for one driver. My son loves it.
A) We know Owner Operator is costly, but we are still leaning toward it for many reasons.
B) We are being told the average is 40k a year for a driver, is this true?
C) Is their anything we really need to be aware of that we are not. We are aware of long hours, many driving hours, being cramped up in the truck together, and so forth, is their something else we need to be aware of before we pay for school?
Is truck driving a good career move?
Truck driving is not a bad choice. You get to see the country and get paid for it. My husband is a driver. I went with him for a couple of years, and found that it is not right for me, though. Something to keep in mind being an O/O: keep about half of the money the two of you earn back for expenses on your truck. If you don't you can become tieds up in a truck that can not be serviced, flat tire, etc. Good luck.
Oh, and by the way, there is good money to be made there. My husband is no longer OTR, and still makes close to 60,000. Teams can make 200,000 or more if they get the miles. And if you really want to make GOOD money, look into driving for a truck dealership. You deliver the trucks, sleep in hotels, fly back. Single driver can make 175,000 per year.
Good luck!

The H & R Block Emerald Card Rip off / wanna raise some h---ll?
emailing calling contacting anyway you can any and every form of media you can in your area to ask them to bring this scam to the public's attention. How they talk you into having your refund direct deposited to their emerald card but it isn't good enought for your stimulus rebate and how there was no announcement made telling us that until after 6am PST this morning (Wed) and that they want to charge you a fee yet of $2 to talk to an operator. If we all get together we can make a difference. Enough of just shutting up and being pissed of...let's fight back! Everyone who has been taken in by this useless,almost impossible to reload card, c'mon. MAKE SOME NOISE OUT THERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The H %26amp; R Block Emerald Card Rip off / wanna raise some h---ll?
H%26amp;R Block has been saying for the past month even as yesterday that they were going to put the money on the emerald card even telling their agents that the money was going there and to tell the customers that it was going to be there!
It needs to get its act together.. charging to use the card for this and that ....and now .....a message saying that the stimulas is going to be on a paper check ..thanks for the warning .....just happened to call the number to get a balance on my card ....plfftttt is what i think of that ...... YOU AREN'T A SUCKER
Reply:H%26amp;R Block Emerald Card is very evil. They have jerked me around so much. I'm pretty much expecting to never see my stimulus rebate.
Reply:Settle down there cowboy! Nobody told you to get the RAC last year. That's why it can't be direct deposited. Because HSBC deposited your tax loan money on your card using their direct deposit number. If the Irs used that information from your return, it would go to an HSBC account. Not yours. No one knew the rebate bill would even pass at that time.
H and R block is not responsible - you are, you chose the refund anticipation loan thru hsbc. H and R block has their own Bank , its called h and r block Bank. I filed my own taxes last year online, I did them myself, but i still used my H and R block direct deposit number for my emerald card. I received my tax refund with no problem . I also got a letter from them last week saying they are going to direct deposit my rebate onto my card also. I didn't get a RAC. Sucker !!!!

What do u guyz think???Story of Ah Beng!!!?
(Act 1)
Ah Beng calls the telephone operator:
Ah Beng: "Could you please tell me the time difference between Singapore and New York?"
Operator: "Just a minute..."
Ah Beng: "Thank you."
Ah Beng got his answer and cut off the line.
(Act 2)
At a bar in New York, the man sat next to Ah Beng told the bartender, "JOHNNIE WALKER, SINGLE."
and his companion said, "JACK DANIELS,SINGLE."
The bartender turned to Ah Beng and asked, "AND YOU, SIR?"
Ah Beng replied: "Tan Ah Beng, MARRIED."
(Act 3)
After completing a jigsaw puzzle he'd been working on for quite sometime,
Ah Beng proudly shows off the finished puzzle to a friend.
"It took me only 5 MONTHS to do it," Ah Beng said.
"FIVE MONTHS? Why did you take so long." the friend asked.
Ah Beng replied, "No, it is not long at all, look ! at the box, it says it is for 4 to 7 years".
(Act 4)
Ah Beng took part in the Singapore Manhunt Competition.
During the Q%26amp;A segment, the host asks, "Name a drink that begins with the letter 'G'."
The crowd shouts, "Gin! Gin!". Others exclaim, "No, its Grape Juice!"
Another smart aleck yells, "Alamak, Gatorade!"
Host : "Quiet please."
Ah Beng laughs hysterically like a hyena before replying,
"C'mon man, I don't need their help? I got more original answer. My answer is "Gu ni!" (milk in Hokkien)
(Act 5)
Ah Beng had just bought a new computer and was using it when he encountered some problems.
After a few attempts, he decided to use the 'Help' command.
Soon after, he became very irritated and called the computer shop for support.
Ah Beng : "I pressed the 'F1' key for help... but it's been over half an hour %26amp; still nobody has come to help me...."
(Act 6)
In the class.
Teacher: "Class, do you know the meaning of parents?"
Ah Beng: "Yes, teacher, it means father and mother."
Teacher: "Good. Can you give me an example?"
Ah Beng: "Sure. Cowboy's parents means cowboy's father and mother. Also can say Cowboy's father is Cow Pay and Cowboy's mother is Cow Boo.
So if they walk together, we can say they are 'Cow Pay Cow Boo'."
(Act 7)
Ah Beng with two red ears went to his doctor. The doctor asked him what had happened to his ears and
he answered," I was ironing a shirt and the phone ring lor- but instead of picking up the phone, I accidentally picked up the iron and stuck it to my ear. So Kena lor!""Oh Dear!" the doctor exclaimed in disbelief. "But, what happened to the other ear?"
Ah Beng: "That stupid fellow called back again loh!"
(Act 8 )
Why did Ah Beng go to! a movie with his 18 friends?
Because according to the advertisement, below 18 is not allowed to go in
What do u guyz think???Story of Ah Beng!!!?
#1 is my favourite. That's cute, and it took me a second so I liked it.
I guess I'd get #4 and #6 better if I were Chinese...
I've heard #3 and #5 before as blonde jokes and #7 about another ethnic group. But they're still cute jokes. Is there a tradition about using the name 'Ah Beng' for these kinds of jokes?
Reply:hahaha!!!
