Judge Orders Federal Prison for Navy Commander

A U.S. Navy commander was sentenced Friday to almost four years in prison for rerouting a warship in exchange for luxury travel, hookers or cash. 

Capt. Daniel Dusek, 49, was relieved of his command of USS Bonhomme Richard as part of the investigation into a $34 million bribery scheme run by Singapore-based businessman Leonard Francis, known as "Fat Leonard" to Navy officials

Dusek pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy of bribery and faced a federal judge in downtown San Diego Friday for formal sentencing. 

U.S. District Judge Janis L. Sammartino ordered Dusek to spend 46 months in federal prison.

“It’s truly unimaginable to the court that someone in your position with the United States Navy would sell out based on what was provided to you – hotel rooms, entertainment and the services of prostitutes,” the judge told Dusek according to a news release.

Dusek will report to to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons on June 15. The judge recommended a facility in Sheridan, Oregon. 

Dusek was also ordered to pay a $70,000 fine and $30,000 in restitution to the Navy.

"I think the Navy will take steps at this point to administratively separate him from the Navy," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark Pletcher.

Dusek served as deputy operations officer aboard USS Blue Ridge from January 2009-February 2011. It was during this time that Dusek provided classified information to Francis and his associates "dozens of times" according to court documents.

Francis bribed naval officers to make sure their ships were docked at Asian ports, where Francis’ companies overcharged the Navy for docking services.

In emails, Francis described Dusek as a "golden asset to drive the big decks [aircraft carriers] into our fat revenue GDMA ports."

In exchange for releasing confidential ship movement information and advocating for GDMA to senior Navy officials, Dusek received a stay at the Marriott Waikiki and the services of a prostitute while in the Philippines among other things, court documents show.

Dusek arranged for USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Group to use Port Klang, Malaysia in October 2010. The port is owned by Francis.

In February 2011, federal officials say Dusek was provided an eight-night stay in Manila with alcohol, entertainment and prostitutes.

The value of items received by Dusek as a result of the relationship was estimated to be $10,000.

“We have other people who have pleaded guilty whose sentences are upcoming who took more things of value who were engaged in more pervasive conduct. I don’t know if this will be the longest sentence,” said Pletcher.

Pletcher said resources are committed to the case and the investigation is ongoing.

Oceanside Man Arrested in 'Odious' Triple Killing of Family

$

An Oceanside man has been arrested on suspicion of killing a Santa Barbara doctor, his wife and their 5-year-old daughter, sheriff’s officials said Friday afternoon in California.

Pierre Haobsh, 26, was arrested in the shooting deaths of 57-year-old Weidong "Henry" Han, 29-year-old Huijie “Jennie” Yu and 5-year-old Emily Han.

Santa Barbara County sheriff’s deputies found the family members’ bodies in their upscale home in the 4600 block of Greenhill Way in Goleta near Santa Barbara on Wednesday evening.

“This tragic case is a terrible blow to the Santa Barbara area and medical community at large,” Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown said.

One of Dr. Han's colleagues had alerted authorities when he had failed to show up for a business meeting in Los Angeles. All of the Han family members were last seen alive on Tuesday evening, officials explained.

Responding to a welfare check, deputies found their bodies had been wrapped in plastic and they were bound in duct tape in the garage. 

"This was a diabolical, premeditated crime," Brown said in a news conference. "One of the most odious that I have ever been involved with."

Brown released few details into the circumstances that led to the triple killing. Haobsh was a business acquaintance of Dr. Han's, though the sheriff did not specify the type of business they were involved in.

“Hoapsh was recently involved in a business transaction with Mr. Han,” Brown said.

Investigators zeroed in on Haobsh, who lives with his father in Oceanside, Brown said. It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney.

“Pretty shocking especially for this area, something we really don't expect,” neighbor Richard Salzburg said.

Deputies conducted a surveillance operation on Haobsh and spotted him driving in unincorporated San Diego County at about 12:30 a.m. Friday. They followed him to a gas station in Bonsall, where he was arrested.

Detectives recovered a loaded 9mm handgun and an unspecified item that belonged to one of the Hans.

Haobsh has no criminal history, the sheriff said. Investigators have not released a suspected motive for the crime, though they say "financial gain" was believed to be behind the case.

Dr. Han ran the Santa Barbara Herbal Clinic since 1991, with his wife working alongside him in the office, Brown explained.

The couple's daughter, Emily, would have turned six on Saturday.

Investigators say more information on the case will be released next week.

Christie's M&Ms Pic Alights Twitter

A photo showing Gov. Chris Christie transferring M&M candy from a bag into a box was setting Twitter ablaze Friday night. 

"Chris Christie pouring his bag of M&M's into a bigger bag of MORE M&M's is a savage and perplexing move," tweeted Pete Blackburn, sports editor for Uproxx. 

[[373607611, C]]

The photo was retweeted nearly 5,000 times in about an hour, drawing plenty of snarky commentary — not unremarkable on social media when it comes to the New Jersey governor, who is known for his feisty and unfiltered personality, and often described by critics as a bully.

The picture was taken at the Notre Dame-Wisconsin basketball game at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, where Christie was in attendance Friday night, according to Seth H., the man who says he snapped the photo. 

"Time for some sugar problems in Fort Lee," wrote Radlein, referencing the George Washington Bridge scandal. 

"Trump is making him do this!" said JoePontillo, recalling the image of a stoic Christie standing behind Trump when he endorsed him.

Defenders pointed out that M&Ms sold in boxes at concession stands usually come packaged with bags inside the box: "Common practice to pour the bag into the box," said Tom Herron

"He's consolidating," said AJRendere.

And there were even a few sympathizers: "Poor guy can't even get his snack on," said Jason4Liberty.

"It's a box he's pouring them into and any veteran snack eater knows it's easier to pour into mouth out of a box," replied BesseBoy

Christie has been following Notre Dame basketball for years and was at their game Sunday at Barclays Center in Brooklyn; he is longtime friends with Notre Dame coach Mike Brey and his daughter is a student manager for the basketball team, according to NJ Advance Media.

Fire Rips Through Popular Lakeside Restaurant

A popular bar and restaurant in the heart of Lakeside was heavily damaged early Saturday morning when a fire ripped through the business.

The blaze sparked around 4:10 a.m. at the eatery located at 10053 Maine Ave. A delivery driver making his rounds in the area called 911 when he noticed smoke stemming from the roof.

Lakeside resident Bill Prorok lives around the corner from the restaurant and told NBC 7 he heard what sounded like an explosion and then saw flames erupting from the roof of Eastbound Bar & Grill.

With the Lakeside fire station just minutes away, crews rushed to the scene. Flames engulfed the kitchen, destroying everything in their path.

No one was inside the business when the fire broke out and no one was injured. Eastbound Bar & Grill owner Ben Clevenger told NBC 7 he believes the fire was accidental, possibly caused by faulty electrical wiring in a freezer.

The eatery has been in business for six years and employs a staff of about 50 people. Staffers will be temporarily out of work until the restaurant can be repaired and reopened.

Clevenger said his business is a big part of the Lakeside community, always hosting fundraisers and supporting local causes. Thus, its closure will be felt throughout the area.

Fire officials said the blaze is under investigation. The cause has not yet been determined by officials. Another business near the restaurant also sustained some fire damage, officials said.

Clevenger hopes to reopen his eatery soon, hopefully before the Lakeside Rodeo next month, which is the community’s biggest event of the year.

Exhibit Marks Centennial of Historic Flooding

$

This year marks the centennial of the worst flooding to ever hit San Diego County – a natural disaster that left many communities, including the South Bay, in dire straits.

On Jan. 27, 1916, the severe flooding caused the Lower Otay Dam to collapse. Water flooded the entire valley, pushing everything out of its way.

The force destroyed hundreds of farms, homes and businesses, and wiped away roads, bridges and railroad tracks.

“Not only was it a solid wall of water, but it was moving at a high rate of speed. It was a sudden break. No one had any warning,” Steven Schoenherr, president of the Chula Vista Heritage Museum, explained. “It covered the 10 miles from the Otay dam to the coast in about 48 minutes.”

Schoenherr said the 1916 flood is the worst one in San Diego County's history.

One hundred years later, the damage from that flooding has not been forgotten. The devastation is detailed in a new exhibit at the Chula Vista Heritage Museum.

“Centennial of the Great Flood of 1916” is the museum's first display in its new location at Chula Vista's public library located at 365 F St.

In 1916, the City of San Diego wanted to fill its reservoirs and hired Charles Hatfield to help, as he was known for his work as a “rainmaker.”

Hatfield had already proven successful with farmers in California’s Central Valley.

“He had already many times made rain up in Hemet. He was paid by the farmers there every year in Hemet to make rain," said Schoenherr, who is also a former history professor at University of San Diego.

Schoenherr said Hatfield would use a secret formula and release chemical vapors into the atmosphere to create rain.

And that’s exactly what Hatfield did near Lake Morena dam in San Diego County just days before the flooding.

“He did not cause The Great Flood. He was, however, successful at making rain that happened to fall at the same time as three large Pacific storms that lingered over the county for two weeks,” Schoenherr explained.

“So you had a confluence – a coming together of Hatfield's chemicals, the weather fronts, the storms, the high pressure. And all that combined caused the rain not just to come and go, but to stay here and be very severe,” he added.

Nowadays, dams, siphons and storm drains are built with stronger materials. Schoenherr said no local dams have failed since 1916.

“We need to remember that this is always a possibility. It's like earthquakes. We can't do anything about it. They will happen. You just have to be prepared,” he said.

Schoenherr said rainmaking still exists today.

“After World War II, they discovered silver iodide crystals can cause water to condense around the crystal, if they're sprayed into a cloud. And that can cause rain,” he explained.

According to Schoenherr, after The Great Flood of 1916 the City of San Diego refused to pay Hatfield the $10,000 he charged to make it rain. Hatfield sued the city and lost, then retired from rainmaking.

By the way, one of the few structures that withstood the catastrophic flooding was a historic Queen Anne-style home on Chula Vista's Main Street.

The house, built in the 1880s, still stands today. The property sits just off the road and feels like a pocket of serenity among a row of businesses.

Resident Barbara Anderson was six years old when her parents bought the house in 1939. She spoke with NBC 7 about the historic home.

“When we were restoring part of the house, we found that the walls had striations on them which means it has shifted a little bit," said Anderson. "But it never floated away. It was never off its foundation."

The Anderson home made it through the flooding because it was so well built, and supported by a solid foundation.

At the time of The Great Flood, nearly all of the other homes around it were built of wood and succumbed to the water's force.

But this home was different.

“It was meant to survive. It has an integrity that a lot of buildings do not have," said Anderson.

In modern times, the home withstood another challenge to its existence.

More than 10 years ago, the City of Chula Vista wanted to turn the area where the home is located, into an industrial corridor.

Anderson and some neighbors spoke before the city council and fought the plan.

She said the city sent representatives out to see the historic house and once they did, they changed their minds. Soon after, Chula Vista designated the Anderson home a historical structure.

The Great Flood exhibit will be on display at the Chula Vista Heritage Museum for the rest of the year.

San Diego Non-Profit Earns 'Hero Award'

A San Diego-based non-profit organization that helps connect military families around the world through reading was honored with a big award Friday in Washington, D.C.

The Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation presented United Through Reading (UTR) with its “Community Service Hero Award” in recognition for the support the organization provides to U.S. military families.

The non-profit’s mission is to unite military families through reading, even if those families are physically apart.

UTR offers military service members the chance to be video recorded while reading books to their children at home. The non-profit organization has hundreds of locations worldwide where service members can record themselves reading books aloud for their children to view on a DVD at home.

The program aims to connect military parents to their children while encouraging literacy. Last year, the organization distributed more than 10,000 books this way to military children around the globe.

“Hero Award” in hand, UTR’s CEO Sally Ann Zoll said she’s extremely grateful for the honors received at Friday’s ceremony.

“To be in the presence of our nation's most decorated and honored veterans, and to have those veterans believe in the mission of United Through Reading, like we believe in our mission, it's incredible,” said Zoll.

According to UTR’s website, more than 80 percent of participating military families reported that their kids will watch a recorded story daily – up to 250 times during a parent’s 10-month deployment. Parents also reported a decrease in their children’s anxiety about the deployment and an increase in feelings of connectedness.

To date, almost two million service member families have participated in this program.

Petition Asking for Guns at RNC Tops 25K Signatures

A petition calling for people to openly carry firearms at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland received more than 25,000 signatures Saturday evening, NBC News reported.

The petition's author takes issue with the decision by Quicken Loans Arena — which will host convention — to ban all firearms, even though Ohio is an open-carry state.

The petition argues the attendees will be “sitting ducks” against “evil-doers, criminals or others who wish to threaten the American way of life,” and demands Reince Priebus and the Republican National Committee to relocate the convention.

The City of Cleveland said in a statement last week it is "working with our federal, state and local security as well as our business partners we look forward to a successful convention."

'It's Beautiful': Family Memorializes Conner Kepple

Dozens gathered on a sunny spring day in Pacific Beach to remember a son, brother and friend loved by so many.

Family and friends of Conner Kepple met in Kate Sessions Park Saturday to memorialize the young EMT who died on his 21st birthday after what investigators called a ‘violent confrontation’ in the Gaslamp Quarter.

“This gathering – it’s beautiful and it’s perfect,” Conner’s little sister Makenna Kepple told NBC 7. “It’s a celebration of life and that’s what Conner did every day. He celebrated his life, and we, just as a family, didn’t prefer a classic funeral. Just wasn’t our style and it’s not his. So having all of his friends and his family gathered here today is exactly what we need.”

Conner loved sports and many memories of him involve him snowboarding and dirt biking.

Conner's older brother Trenton said he made everyone feel like a good friend. 

"We shared a lot of fun times," Trenton Kepple said. "[There's] definitely a lot of love in our family." 

Conner also worked as an EMT where coworkers said he loved to help others and they trusted him with his life.

Five days before his death on March 10, he had been celebrating in the Gaslamp with friends. Homicide detectives are calling his death ‘suspicious’ and are continuing to investigate.

Authorities said there were clearly signs of inflicted injury on Conner when he died, but they still have not confirmed those injuries lead to his death. Police said once they get the autopsy results they will be able to move forward with the investigation.
Conner leaves behind countless friends, who he looked at as his family, as well as his parents, older brother and younger sister.
 

Man Sentenced for Smuggling Men Across Border

A man was sentenced in San Diego court Friday for abandoning four men in the Otay Mountains after smuggling them across the border.

Efrain Delgado-Rosales, who collected four Mexican citizens hoping to enter the US from a stash house in Tijuana, will spend five years in prison a San Diego judge ordered.

Delgado-Rosales walked the men to the border fence then left them on the Mexico side for a period of hours in which the men were robbed of their cash (thousands of dollars) and some of their cell phones.

Delgado-Rosales was ‘indifferent’ to the robbery according to one of the robbed men. That and his lack of surprise led them to believe he may have been involved in the robbery.

Once over the border fence and into the Otay Mountains the men said they had trouble keeping up with Delgado-Rosales who, instead of slowing down, left three of the men behind.

He only returned after the one man who had stayed with him begged him to return with the others.

After almost a day of hiking through the mountains, Border Patrol located the men. They were about one mile north of the US Mexico border and three miles east of the Otay Mesa Port of Entry.

All five were arrested for entering the US illegally.

“This case serves as an example of the extreme dangers associated with crossing illegally into the United States,” US Attorney Laura Duffy said. “Smuggling activities are run by criminal organizations that have little concern over the welfare of their charges. Our office will aggressively prosecute those who smuggle illegal aliens into the United States for financial gain, place those in their company in grave danger and needlessly cause deaths.”


The four men identified Delgado-Rosales as their foot guide and explained that they and their families each promised to pay others $5,000 to get them each into the United States, for a total of $20,000.

“The sentence of Delgado-Rosales sends a stern message to those who use dangerous means to smuggle individuals into this country for profit. I would like to acknowledge the U.S. Attorney’s Office for their efforts in this case,” Chief Border Patrol Agent Richard A. Barlow said.


Delgado-Rosales has been implicated in another smuggling operation in the Otay Mountains in 2014, just east of where the five men were found.
In that case one of the smuggled men, Jose de Jesus Hernandez-Adono, died. His body was found by Border Patrol and Homeland Security Investigations Agents in late September 2014.

A witness from the 2014 incident identified Delgado-Rosales as their foot guide and said he and the other two men barely survived the trek.

Delgado-Rosales has been apprehended by Border Patrol 24 times dating back to July 19, 1999. He was found alone only once.

In 2003 he was discovered in a house in Los Angles with 61 other undocumented people.

Right-Wing Protesters March at Brussels Memorial Site

Four people have been detained Sunday after Belgian authorities held police raids in Brussels and two other Belgian cities.

The federal prosecutor's office says the raids are linked a "federal case regarding terrorism" but did not specify whether it had anything to do with the March 22 suicide bombing attacks in Brussels that killed 28 people and left 270 wounded. The three suicide bombers were also killed in the attacks. 

The 13 raids in Brussels and the northern cities of Mechelen and Duffel came early Sunday. An investigating judge will decide later Sunday whether the four new suspects will remain in custody. Five others were released after questioning. 

Meanwhile, members of an extreme right-wing group called "Nation" marched into the Place de la Bourse carrying anti-terror and anti-ISIS banners. About 400-500 men, dressed in all black, shouted chants at mourners holding a peace rally outside the old stock exchange, which has become a memorial to those who were killed in the attacks.

Police in riot gear surrounded the demonstrators and pushed them back from the square while the protesters shouted "This is our home," NBC News reported. Police fired water cannons on the demonstrators after a few scuffles broke out, dispersing the crowd. 

On Saturday, Brussels canceled a peace march scheduled for Easter Sunday amid fears that ISIS will use it to launch another brutal attack on the city. Authorities said the march would be difficult to properly police without drawing resources away from the investigation into those responsible for the attacks.

Anti-Semitic Fliers Surface on College Campuses

Fliers addressed to white men with anti-Semitic messages were found at several Southern California university campuses on Friday.

A university spokesperson said the fliers appeared on several campus printers throughout the day. University police believe the source of the fliers was off campus. Someone was able to access the schools' network-connected printers.

Cal State University Long Beach and USC were among several schools where the fliers were discovered.

Students had mixed reactions when they heard about the fliers.

"Everyone's accepting of everyone else. That's what it seems like on this campus, so if I see something like that on campus, I'd be very surprised and shocked. Also, disappointed, of course," said Grace Ocular, a CSULB student.

"We have differences and that's how we live together, and this is America," said Anas Ahmmed, a CSULB graduate student.

University police were investigating the incidents and the CSULB has taken action by closing off the remote access to all of its campus printers.

Officials also said university network was secure and was not affected.

Two Americans who hadn't been heard from since Tuesday's terror attacks in Belgium are dead, a family member said Saturday, NBC News reported.

"We found out today that cowards took my brother's life," Levi Sutton wrote on Twitter. He later said Stephanie was also confirmed dead. "The world lost two amazing people today," Sutton wrote.

Justin Shults, 30, was with his wife Stephanie Shults, 29, waving goodbye to Stephanie's mom at the Brussels airport when the explosions went off. His employer, Clarcor, confirmed in a statement that Shults was killed.

The couple moved to the Belgian capital in 2014. Justin is originally from Gatlinburg, Tennessee, and Stephanie is from Lexington, Kentucky. Both were accountants.

NYPD Chief Slams Cruz Over Muslim Surveillance Comments

New York City's police commissioner slammed Ted Cruz Saturday for suggesting police step up patrols of "Muslim neighborhoods" after the terror attacks in Brussels, and accused the Republican presidential hopeful of exploiting the tragedy, NBC News reported.

"We already patrol and secure Muslim neighborhoods, the same way we patrol and secure other neighborhoods," Commissioner William Bratton wrote in an op-ed in the New York Daily News. "But no, we do not single out any populace, black, white, yellow or brown for selective enforcement."

"We do not 'patrol and secure' neighborhoods based on selective enforcement because of race or religion, nor will we use the police and an occupying force to intimidate a populace or a religion to appease the provocative chatter of politicians seeking to exploit fear," Bratton continued.

Bratton, along with President Barack Obama, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and the Council on American-Islamic Relations all condemned Cruz' proposal shortly after he made it Tuesday.

Mexicans Burn Donald Trump Effigies in Easter Ritual

Mexicans celebrating an Easter ritual late Saturday burnt effigies of Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump, whose anti-immigrant views have sparked outrage south of the American border, NBC News reported.

In Mexico City's poor La Merced neighborhood, hundreds of cheering residents yelled "death" and various insults as they watched the explosion of the grinning papier-mâché mock-up of the real estate tycoon, replete with blue blazer, red tie and his trademark tuft of blond hair.

Media reported that Trump effigies burned across Mexico, from Puebla to Mexico's industrial hub Monterrey.

The burning is part of a widespread Mexican Holy Week tradition where neighborhoods burn effigies to represent Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus Christ according to the Bible. The effigies are often modeled on unpopular political figures.

Kasich Says Families Are 'Off Limits' in Campaign

The tone of Donald Trump’s campaign seems to be rubbing Ohio Gov. John Kasich the wrong way, especially since it began to focus on the candidates’ wives this week.

"Families have to be off limits," Kasich said in an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday. "I mean, you cannot get these attacks on families. And if this becomes the order of the day, what kind of people are we going to have in the future that are going to run for public office? There's got to be some rules, and there's got to be something that gets set there. Some decency."
