Paul Ferguson played a significant and tragic role in the death of his younger brother, Timothy Ferguson. Timothy, who was 15 years old and had autism and other challenges with speech and movement, passed away in July 2022 at their home in Norton Shores, Michigan. Timothy's death, caused by malnourishment and hypothermia, shocked the community. He weighed only 69 pounds at the time of his death. Timothy's condition was a direct result of the abuse and neglect he suffered under the care of his mother, Shanda Vander Ark, and brother, Paul Ferguson..

After writing Florida restaurant articles for years, I've come to believe that Floridians want high-quality food when they splurge on a restaurant meal. Although one would think that an eatery that was recognized by the James Beard Foundation might have some longevity - especially when it serves a dish that isn't found in many other restaurants - that wasn't the case with one Florida restaurant.

A Jacksonville man who spent more than 44 years in prison is suing over his wrongful arrest. Willie Williams was convicted of attempted murder in a store robbery in 1975 and sentenced to life in prison, a crime he always insisted he did not commit. He was paroled in 2020 at age 79.

When a restaurant indicates that it intends to aggressively expand into Florida with multiple stores, one can expect to see the number of stores growing in the Sunshine State - not shrinking.

Twenty-two years ago, Robert Ray Courtney (Inmate Register #14636-045) was convicted of diluting chemotherapy drugs for more than 4,000 patients. It's been recently reported he will be released from prison this summer to a halfway house. Victims and families of victims are most likely disappointed and furious and understandably so.

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.

Florida has plenty of historic restaurants that are fun to visit. Examples are the No Name Pub in Big Pine Key, Joe's Stone Crab in Miami, and The Seminole Inn in Indiantown. However, neither is fast food. And Love Food recently named Florida's "most historic" fast food restaurant. It's not a chain, but it does have an interesting story.

It’s a fair question: Have people experiencing homelessness moved to Denver for a free hotel room?. At least one man did. The mother of a missing man messaged me the other day to tell me she is looking for her son. She said he moved back to Denver from Florida thinking he could get a free hotel room as part of Denver Mayor Mike Johnston’s House1000 plan. Of course, those rooms all are full now. Also, most people who received the rooms were in established encampments that the mayor swept. There never were any rooms for people who might move to Denver one week to be housed the next.
