Alleged gang leader Shauntay Henderson sentenced to three years in prison for killing a man at a south Kansas City convenience store in 2006.Circuit Judge Robert M. Schieber convicted Henderson, 26, at a bench trial in November of voluntary manslaughter and armed criminal action. Prosecutors originally had sought a second-degree murder conviction.Schieber sentenced her to three years on the armed criminal action count. He gave her 10 years for manslaughter, but suspended the imposition of the sentence and put her on probation for five years.Henderson briefly made the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list before her capture in 2007.The trial did not address allegations by police and federal officials that Henderson was a violent street gang member. In testimony, Henderson denied any ties to local street gangs.
She is guilty of fatally shooting DeAndre M. Parker, 20, as he sat in a pickup truck outside a convenience store in the 3400 block of Red Bridge Road on Sept. 2, 2006sentenced Shauntay Henderson Wednesday afternoon to three years for armed criminal action and ten years for voluntary manslaughter. But the judge says Henderson will not have to serve time for the manslaughter conviction and instead will spend five years on probation once she gets out of jail on the first charge, as long as she does not commit any other crimes.Henderson was convicted in the 2006 death of Deandre Parker.She said Parker tried to run her over with a pick-up truck, and that is when she said she opened fire.

Timothy “Fuzzy” Timms, a 45-year-old member of the Hells Angels Motorcycle club, stood up Monday for his First Amendment right to freedom of expression. Timms, a resident of the San Diego community of South Park, refused to take off a black leather vest with the motorcycle club's “death's head” insignia when he reported for jury duty. He's a big burly man, 5 feet 8 inches, 250 pounds, with a full beard and auburn-colored, shoulder-length hair. At 7:45 a.m., Timms' stance got him booted from the San Diego Superior Court's Hall of Justice by sheriff's deputies, along with another Hells Angel who also refused to remove his insignia vest. Nine hours later, representatives of both the Superior Court and the sheriff's department apologized to Timms and club member Mick Rush for “misunderstanding” an order issued April 24 by Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Fraser. Rush also had been reporting for jury duty. “It all boils down to a misunderstanding of Judge Fraser'

Jorge “Rivi” Ayala, Griselda Blanco, aka the Black Widow

Rivi was, for a time, the hit-man of choice for Griselda Blanco, aka the Black Widow. Griselda was the grande dame of the Miami cocaine business, a Colombian mother of three, of impoverished origins, who slaughtered and intimidated her way to the top of a billion-dollar industry. She is a central character in this movie, the most deadly figure in a story in which the bodies are stacked like dominos. Conspicuous by her absence as an interviewee, she is one of the few key survivors of the era whom the film-makers were unable to coax before the lens. “Her release was imminent at that point, as was her deportation. I think she has changed her mind since, because we have been reapproached,” Corben says. contract killer Jorge “Rivi” Ayala, the director of Cocaine Cowboys Billy Corben says: “He told me where there is a body buried in Miami, by the Florida turnpike.
