A Wisconsin man who confessed to punching his son to death over a slice of cake pleaded guilty to homicide in the middle of his trial, according to reports.
Travis Stackhouse, 30, pleaded to second-degree reckless homicide, child abuse & child neglect this week in the June 2019 death of his 5-year-old son, Sir Amer Stackhouse.
His guilty plea came Wednesday, after two days of witness testimony in his trial & after prosecutors introduced his taped confession as evidence.
Stackhouse reportedly faces 37 years in prison when he is sentenced next month.
Prosecutors alleged that the Milwaukee dad was upset that his children were eating most of his Father’s Day cheesecake & punched his son & smacked the boy’s face with the back of his hand, which contains metal from a surgery.
The child was reportedly pronounced dead early the next morning, after Stackhouse returned from a bar & the family called 911.
Sir Amer suffered a ruptured stomach, bruised kidneys & a torn adrenal gland & died from blunt force trauma to the abdomen.

There are hundreds of thousands of music artists within
the United Kingdom alone, all of whom encompass various
music genres. Thus, it can be easy for great talents to
get lost in the sea of musicians. In order to stand out
amidst such stiff competition, it is essential for
artists to get their music out to wider audiences.
Thankfully, with the likes of Jake Shaw, that can happen.
Jake Shaw grew up in Blackpool, England. From a young
age, he always had a strong passion for music. Although
he wasn’t quite a musician himself, he knew he wanted
to be involved with the music industry. Luckily, he had
other industry-related skills, such as having a keen eye
for rising talents and new musicians. In fact, he has the
most listened to Spotify playlist in the entire UK, and
due to that, has been able to grow his online following
to over 1 million.
From this love for finding and engaging with good music,
Jake Shaw developed the desire to found his own company
to create more success for himself, and for others within
the industry. He always liked the idea of managing talent
and helping new up-and-coming artists get their name and
music out to a wider audience. Thus, in 2015, he started
his own online music agency called YourOwnMusic. The main
aim of this company is to help new indie artists in the
industry expand their reach and discover newer audiences.
He knows that niche music can sometimes get lost amongst
the thousands of other artists. Thus, his agency works
to ensure that true talent doesn’t get missed out.
For aspiring or new musicians who want to ensure their
name gets out there and their music gets heard by a wider
audience, working with an online agency like Jake Shaw’s
YourOwnMusic can help you achieve those dreams.

Bobby Shmurda's fresh ink is meant to honor 3 heroes of his -- one historical, and 2 with whom he has a much more personal connection.
The rapper's tattoo artist, Daz Leone, tells TMZ ... he met up with Bobby at his studio in the wee hours of the morning Wednesday, where he was in a mixing session with his engineer for some new music.
Daz says Bobby wanted to get a Harriet Tubman tat on his arm because she's an idol of his, and so are his single mother and grandmother who raised him.
We're told Shmurda's body art is meant to honor strong Black women, and for Tubman specifically ... Daz says Bobby told him her story has always resonated with him as he first learned about her in school, and even more in recent years.
According to Daz, Bobby's planning to get more tattoos acknowledging Black history after this one. Daz also tells us he's known Bobby since they were kids and he's one of the first people he ever tattooed ... so his ink is always on the house.
As we've told you ... the rapper was released from prison early in February after spending 6 years behind bars. He's a free man now, but still must abide by special parole conditions.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A federal grand jury has indicted the four former Minneapolis police officers involved in George Floyd’s arrest and death, accusing them of willfully violating the Black man’s constitutional rights as he was restrained face-down on the pavement and gasping for air.
A three-count indictment unsealed Friday names Derek Chauvin, Thomas Lane, J. Kueng and Tou Thao. Specifically, Chauvin is charged with violating Floyd’s right to be free from unreasonable seizure and unreasonable force by a police officer. Thao and Kueng are also charged with violating Floyd’s right to be free from unreasonable seizure, alleging they did not intervene to stop Chauvin as he knelt on Floyd’s neck. All four officers are charged for their failure to provide Floyd with medical care.
Floyd’s May 25 arrest and death, which a bystander captured on cellphone video, sparked nationwide complaints about the police treatment of Black people and protests calling for an end to police brutality and racial inequities.
Chauvin was also charged in a second indictment, stemming from the use of force and neck restraint of a 14-year-old boy in 2017.
Lane, Thao and Kueng made their initial court appearances Friday via videoconference in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis. Chauvin was not part of the court appearance.
Chauvin was convicted last month on state charges of murder and manslaughter in Floyd’s death and is in Minnesota’s only maximum-security prison as he awaits sentencing. The other three former officers face a state trial in August, and they are free on bond. They were allowed to remain free after Friday’s federal appearance.
Floyd, 46, died after Chauvin pinned him to the ground with a knee on his neck, even as Floyd, who was handcuffed, repeatedly said he couldn’t breathe. Kueng and Lane also helped restrain Floyd — state prosecutors have said Kueng knelt on Floyd’s back and Lane held down Floyd’s legs. State prosecutors say Thao held back bystanders and kept them from intervening during the 9 1/2-minute restraint.
Chauvin’s attorney, Eric Nelson, argued during his murder trial that Chauvin acted reasonably in the situation and that Floyd died because of underlying health issues and drug use. He has filed a request for a new trial, citing many issues including the judge’s refusal to move the trial due to publicity.
Nelson had no comment on the federal charges Friday. Kueng’s attorney also had no comment. A message left for Thao’s attorney wasn’t immediately returned, and a call to Lane’s attorney disconnected when he was reached by The Associated Press.
Ben Crump and the team of attorneys for Floyd’s family said the civil rights charges reinforce “the strength and wisdom” of the Constitution. “We are encouraged by these charges and eager to see continued justice in this historic case that will impact Black citizens and all Americans for generations to come,” the attorneys said in a statement.
The Rev. Al Sharpton said the federal charges against the officers show the Justice Department “does not excuse it nor allow police to act as though as what they do is acceptable behavior in the line of duty.”
“What we couldn’t get them to do in the case of Eric Garner, Michael Brown in Ferguson, and countless others, we are finally seeing them do today,” Sharpton said.
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, whose office is prosecuting the state charges, said the federal government is responsible for protecting the civil rights of every American and “federal prosecution for the violation of George Floyd’s civil rights is entirely appropriate,” particularly now that Chauvin is convicted of murder.

At least 25 people were killed in a shootout between suspected drug traffickers and police in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday, one of the state's deadliest police raids, police said.
People targeted in the raid in the poor Jacarezinho neighborhood tried to escape across rooftops as police arrived in armored vehicles and helicopters flew overhead, television images showed. The firefight forced residents to shelter in their homes.
The victims included one police officer, and the remainder were suspected members of the drug-trafficking gang that dominated life in the slum, including some of its leaders, police said.
It was the deadliest single police operation in 16 years for Rio state which has suffered for decades from drug-related violence in its numerous favelas.
Human Rights Watch (HRW) said that Rio de Janeiro prosecutors have a constitutional obligation to oversee the police and pursue criminal investigations of police abuses. It called for a thorough and independent investigation into the deaths.
According to HRW, Rio police killed 453 people and at least four police officers died in police actions during the first three months of the year, despite a Supreme Court ruling prohibiting operations in communities during the COVID-19 pandemic except in "absolutely exceptional cases."
Police said in addition to drug trafficking, the gang robbed trucks of cargo and held up commuter trains to steal from passengers.
Police displayed an arsenal of seized weapons at a news conference: six assault rifles, 15 handguns, a machine gun, 14 grenades and a round of artillery ammunition.

Do you understand the true meaning of the word “boss?” If the term is based off of coming up the hard way in the streets, it is defined as “one who motivates his team; someone who a team looks up to and follows because he helps them to grow and ensures that everyone eats.” These words are the law of rapper, entrepreneur, and CEO Breadwinner Kane of Artillery South.
The boss player from Huntsville, AL walks confidently in his role, as he navigated through the music industry and hustled his way to success over the past five years. Releasing fire heat for the streets like “Motion” with Kevin Gates, Zaytoven, and “Go Down” ft. Mista Myles for the ladies highlights his diverse skill set. Breadwinner Kane continues to present these lyrical gifts to the game for every listener, which can be heard on his new EP that is dropping soon, “Street Certified.”
Growing up, Breadwinner Kane was inspired by the likes of Juvenile, Lil Boosie, the legendary Soulja Slim (RIP), Scarface, Kevin Gates, Waka Flocka, and 50 Cent. Given this powerhouse as a main influence, the creative process is undoubtedly a mystery. Two things are for certain and one thing is for sure, however: the product will be a stroke of creative genius, the crowd will go crazy, and it won’t be for the faint-hearted–it’s going to be gangsta. Kane’s book as an artist began as the boss of a crew who envisioned himself in the music business.
After starting his own company, building his own studio, and investing in rappers and other talent, he was able to watch and learn the game from a unique lens. He realized that he needed to get some things off his chest too! In the tradition of rappers/CEOs like Baby of Cash Money and Rocko Da Don, Kane is stepping up to the plate, or rather stepping to the mic, strong.
