Victory church pastor Rodney Locklear has been indicted. The Richmond Times Dispatch reports that a Virginia church has closed its doors, but not for the same reasons other congregations in the Commonwealth have been shuttered. It was not a declining or aging congregation or financial matters. Victory church has ceased to exist because the pastor has been accused of s$x crimes against a minor and now faces six additional charges.

Brown on Cleveland

Cleveland, OH. An Ohio man who killed his sister, her husband, and unborn niece was sentenced today in the Courtroom of Cuyahoga County Judge Rick Bell. Jason David Iverson was found guilty of three counts of aggravated murder and one count of felonious assault. As family members on both sides of the aisle awaited sentencing, the question was "why." What happened on September 4, 2023, caused so much turmoil that it cost the lives of three innocent people.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

The Herman H. Fortmann Building at 207 Depot Street in Marthasville, Missouri (Warren County) is 120 years old. As old as this building is, it's attractive and fun to observe. On May 5, 2006, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

It's not unusual for old Florida buildings like Kmart and Golden Coral to be demolished to be repurposed for other things. And now, a Florida Burger King has been torn down for a somewhat surprising downsizing reason.

Grabbing a donut, muffin, bagel, or coffee on your way to or from work can be a nice way to give yourself a sweet treat or pick me up without spending much money. Unfortunately, a Florida restaurant in this genre was recently closed down. I frequently write about restaurant closures, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a violation like the one that caused the closure.

After writing about Florida's restaurants for some time, I've come to believe that, although Floridians want excellent food for a reasonable price, they're not exactly picky about where that food comes from.

Many Floridians enjoy all-you-can-eat buffets as they offer plenty of food variety for one fixed price. Unfortunately, one popular option in this niche - Plant City Homestyle Buffet - was closed for three days after a state inspection. Unfortunately, this isn't its first closure.

When homes are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it usually means there will be an intended purpose to keep the structure alive whether it’s through historic restoration, repurposing, or general maintenance. Sometimes, too, these places get demolished.

BRENTWOOD – Two of the jurors who awarded David Meehan a record $38 million for the hundreds of rapes and beatings he suffered as a child while in state custody are shocked to learn the New Hampshire Attorney General’s office plans to cap the payout at $475,000.

It's no secret that in 2023, Florida lost 41 Bed, Bath, and Beyond stores when the retailer filed for bankruptcy and shuttered stores. Often, the closing Bed, Bath and Beyond stores were anchor stores, which meant their absence left a huge void in some of Florida's shopping centers.

If you are a Floridian of a certain age, you might remember when shopping at a mall was seen as a fun way to spend a weekend. Perhaps your parents would drop you off to get a snack at Orange Julius. Or maybe you'd get some cash and were told to buy yourself some school clothes.
