Forrest City is a city in St. Francis County, Arkansas, United States; about 47 miles from Memphis, Tennessee. It calls itself the Jewel of the Delta.
Based on the number of Pigford II claims, they might be buying a lot of jewels.
According to the 2000 census, Forrest City had 14,774 residents. Of that total, 60.93% were black; a total of 9002 black residents
How many residents of Forrest City claimed under penalty of perjury that they were discriminated against when they attempted to farm and filed Pigford 2 claims with the US government?
Forrest City residents filed 1,265 claims. That’s $65,250,000 in claims total and it means that 14% of the Black residents filed.
It becomes even more suspicious when you look at the actual number of farmers in St. Francis County.
Let’s look at the 2002 Census of Agriculture. The total number of farmers in 2002 in all of St. Francis County-not just Forrest City-was 347 farms. And of those farms, 84 of them were owned by black farmers.
So to recap : 84 black farmers in all of St. Francis County in 2002 but Forrest City alone has 1265 late filer claims.
That’s 1,506% more Pigford II claims in one city than black farmers in the entire county.
We have no idea how many of those claims in Forrest City were actually paid. What we do know is it a few weeks ago, $1.2 billion in checks were mailed out to 18,000 successful Pickford II claimants
In September, a small Christian village north of Damascus, Syria was attacked by rebel forces including al-Nusra Muslim jihadists. The village of Maaloula is an ancient tie to Christianity and it’s one last places where Aramaic is spoken.
This past week, another small Christian village north of Damascus was attacked by combined forces including the Free Syria Army (FSA), al-Nusra and ISIS (Islamic State Of Iran and Syria) rebels.
Sadat, like Maaloula, has a population of about 3,000. It’s also one of the few places on earth where Aramaic, the language Jesus probably spoke, is used. Sadat is mentioned in the Bible; it’s on the boundary of the ancient land of Canaan.
Like Maaloula, some details are sketchy. Reports say thirty vehicles swept into Sadad on October 21st and took over the hospital and government buildings. The rebels are said to have ordered people back into their homes. The Syria Army took back the village but nine villagers were said to have been killed.
Rumors have been swirling about a possible investigation of Jefferson Country, Ohio prosecutor Jane Hanlin, who led the initial stage of the infamous ‘Steubenville rape case’ that led to the arrest and eventual conviction of Trent Mays and Ma’lik Richmond.
The rumors are true.
There are people who would love to see Mrs. Hanlin brought down. She was the subject on intense discussion when the Steubenville rape story went national. Over 2,500 people signed a petition at Change.Org to have her disbarred. The petition was based on the false rumors promoted by blogger Alexandria Goddard and Anonymous, including baseless accusations that Hanlin was part of a massive cover-up.
Apparently influenced by the false Goddard / Anonymous narrative, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine convened a grand jury months ago and it’s led to two indictments so far. Some people were asking if the murmurings of a Hanlin background check meant Hanlin herself was next to be indicated.
Now it can revealed: Jane Hanlin HAS been under investigation for weeks.
At 12:45pm on October 28th, the world can finally know the results of the intensive background search…
Jane Hanlin has been sworn in as a Federal Prosecutor.
At least 2,500 people owe Mrs Hanlin an apology.
The smear campaign against her was a failure. Her amazingly successful record as a prosecutor spoke for itself.
Congratulations to Jane Hanlin. She endured months of vile falsehoods and even direct threats.
But the assault and harassment against innocent people in Steubenville that Alexandria Goddard started continues.
And now it’s being helped along by Mike DeWine and an investigation that many in Steubenville say is abusive.

[note radius=”10″]Summary Takeaway from Kimberlin v. DeWalt : Brett Kimberlin is a violent criminal who files meritless lawsuit after meritless lawsuit against people he sees as his enemy. This isn’t a person who turned over a new leaf. He was as agressively unrepentant about his crimes in 1998 as he is today. [/note]
