WI man traveling 104 mph in 35 mph zone, killing 3, gets 30 years in prison

A Green Bay man who pleaded no contest to reckless homicide in a high-speed crash that killed three people was sentenced to 30 years in prison Monday.

The crash in Green Bay killed Jessie Saldana, Sonia Gonzalez-Guillen and Sonia Gonzalez in June 2020 when Abdi Ahmed struck their vehicle with such force that it rolled the car four or five times. According to the criminal complaint, Ahmed was driving 104 mph in a 35 mph speed zone.

Ahmed earlier pleaded no contest to three counts of second-degree reckless homicide. Brown County Judge John Zakowski also placed Ahmed on extended supervision for 30 years after his release, WLUK-TV reported.

Family and friends of the victims asked the judge for a long sentence. The 24-year-old Ahmed addressed them in court.

“I would like to apologize and send my deep condolences to you guys for the loss of your loved ones in the tragedy that has happened on that fateful day. It was never my intention to do any of this. It was not something I planned to do. It was just a tragedy that I made a poor choice on that day, and I’m deeply sorry for the hurt,” Ahmed said.

Zakowski called it one of the most difficult sentencings he has been involved in.

“Young people today, it’s all about themselves sometimes, and they don’t think about other people. You weren’t thinking about anybody else but yourself that day,” Zakowski told Ahmed.

Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul’s campaign rips Republican Rep. Lee Zeldin over probe into allegedly photocopied signatures

An upstate New York district attorney is moving forward with a criminal probe into elections fraud allegations lauded against Republican candidate for governor Rep. Lee Zeldin the same week absentee ballots are being sent out in the high-stakes race against Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul.

The Times Union first reported on Sunday that Albany County District Attorney’s Office and the New York State Board of Elections were moving forward with a criminal investigation into thousands of duplicated signatures submitted during the nomination process as part of an effort to secure Zeldin on the Independence Party Line.

Zeldin himself was not involved in the process of submitting the signatures, according to the newspaper. That was handled by John F. Haggerty, Jr., who serves in a leadership role for the New York State Republican Party.

When news of the election fraud allegations initially broke this summer, Zeldin’s campaign spokeswoman, Katie Vincentz, denied that the Republican’s campaign participated or had any knowledge of the photocopied signatures and said Hochul was “desperate for any distraction” from her own failures regarding soaring violence in the state, calling the Democratic governor the “undisputed queen of scandal, abuse, and pay to play corruption.”

Zeldin’s campaign did not immediately return requests for comment sent on Monday.

“After months of non-answers and finger-pointing, New Yorkers deserve to know who exactly was involved in Xerox Zeldin’s election fraud scandal. The facts here are clear: Zeldin’s campaign manager knowingly signed off on 47 volumes of petitions containing more than 11,000 photocopied signatures,” Hochul’s campaign manager, Brian Lenzmeier, said in a statement on Sunday.

“As a congressman, Lee Zeldin supported legal efforts to overturn the 2020 election and pushed baseless conspiracy theories under the banner of ‘election integrity,’ but apparently that doesn’t apply to his own campaign,” Lenzmeier alleged. “His campaign is now implicated in a criminal investigation for attempting to defraud voters and Zeldin needs to be held accountable.”

Haggerty was sentenced in 2011 to nearly four years in prison following a grand larceny and money laundering conviction for stealing $750,000 from former New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg during his 2009 re-election campaign, according to a New York Times story at the time.

In August, a spokeswoman for the New York Board of Elections confirmed to Fox News Digital that of the signatures submitted for Zeldin to run on the Independence Party line — in addition to the GOP ticket — just 39,228 were validated, falling short of the 45,000 required. Nearly 13,000 others were deemed invalid for a swath of reasons, including duplicate signatures, voters not properly registered, or incorrect addresses, she said. She did not comment on whether any photocopied signatures were found.

The news about the criminal probe comes around the same time the Times Union reported about an alleged pay-to-play COVID-19 test deal for one of Hochul’s political donors. According to the report, Hochul’s campaign received $300,000 from a donor whose company, Digital Gadgets, later secured an over $600 million contract to supply rapid tests for New York state. California paid 45% less for rapid COVID-19 tests by buying directly from the same New Jersey-based supplier, AccessBio.

New York could have saved $286 million if it paid the same price, according to the report.

In an appearance on Fox News on Sunday, Zeldin appealed to Democratic voters in the staunchly blue electorate to help him “save this state,” criticizing Hochul for suggesting that he move down to Florida after she’s accused the Republican of being a pro-Trump extremist not fit to run New York.

A new report is out today detailing massive voter fraud in Fulton County, which is outlined below by Liz Harrington:

“The error reporting rate in Fulton’s hand count audit is a whopping 60%”

HUGE NEW EVIDENCE OUT OF FULTON COUNTY, GA

“THE ERROR REPORTING RATE IN FULTON’S HAND COUNT AUDIT IS A WHOPPING 60%”

THIS INCLUDES “DUPLICATE RESULTS REPORTING FOR BATCHES OF BALLOTS”HTTPS://T.CO/5MNGCNWHHF

“AT LEAST 36 BATCHES OF MAIL-IN BALLOTS WITH 4,255 TOTAL EXTRA VOTES WERE REDUNDANTLY ADDED INTO FULTON CO. AUDIT RESULTS FOR THE NOVEMBER ELECTION. THESE ILLICIT VOTES INCLUDE 3,390 EXTRA VOTES FOR JOE BIDEN, 865 EXTRA VOTES FOR DONALD TRUMP AND 43 EXTRA VOTES FOR JO JORGENSON.”

Audit tally sheets were FABRICATED for Joe Biden…

“BUT IT IS NOT SIMPLY A CASE OF ERRORS. THE VOTERGA TEAM FOUND 7 FALSIFIED AUDIT TALLY SHEETS CONTAINING FABRICATED VOTE TOTALS FOR THEIR RESPECTIVE BATCHES.”

NOTHING TO SEE HERE! PIC.TWITTER.COM/AXIAPM9HCT

Here’s an example of the fabrications:

“A BATCH CONTAINING 59 ACTUAL BALLOT IMAGES FOR JOE BIDEN, 42 FOR DONALD TRUMP AND 0 FOR JO JORGENSON WAS REPORTED AS 100 FOR BIDEN AND 0 FOR TRUMP.”

The full report from VoterGA, which is just one page, is below:

It’s pretty incredible the outright, intentional fraud they found from the AUDIT process. And yet Biden today claimed the 2020 election was the best election ever or something.

Is it any wonder why the state of Georgia is taking over Fulton County elections?
