Video After The Jump
The family of 12-year old Cleveland preteen Tamir Rice have been devastated since his November 22nd shooting death. On that day a 911 call was placed informing authorities that Rice kept pulling a gun out of his pants "scaring the shit out of people."
The caller also said that "it's probably fake." Police arrived at Cudell Recreation Center and shot Tamir within seconds. Authorities later admitted the gun was not real. .
New extended footage showing the aftermath of the shooting was released on Wednesday January 7, 2015. It shows Tamir's 14-year old sister walking up to the scene before being shoved to the ground by Officer Frank Garmback, 46.
Garmback then handcuffs the girl and places her in the back of his patrol car, where she remains for the duration of the 30-minute video.
Neither Garmback or his partner Timothy Loehmann, 26, offer any medical aid to Tamir, who is still alive while on the ground. Four minutes pass before an FBI agent approaches and gives Tamir CPR. An ambulance later arrives and transports Tamir to MetroHealth Medical Center where he died 12 hours later.
The family released a statement on the new footage through Florida-based law firm Parks & Crump.
"The extended version of the Tamir Rice shooting video released this morning by the Cleveland police Department fully supports the initial account provided by the Rice family.
This video shows in crystal-clear HD that the responding officers acted inappropriately and recklessly, both in how they handled the shooting of 12-year-old Tamir Rice and the events that immediately followed.
The family is outraged that rather than comfort a sister coming to the aid of her dying brother, the officers instead manhandled and tackled her, cuffed her and thoughtlessly tossed her in the back of a patrol car.
It is painfully obvious that these Cleveland Police Department officers lacked even the most basic elements of training."

Universal Music Group is taking a strong legal stance against companies that have been sending music to inmates in correctional facilities across the country.
Centric Group and their subsidiary Keefe Group specialize in sending packages to prisoners. Centric's home page describes their services:
Today we employ more than 3,000 people, have offices nationwide and our annual sales exceed $900 million. Our companies include Keefe Group, the nation’s leading supplier of food, personal care products, electronics and clothing to the correctional commissary market.
UMG alleges that music being sent by Centric includes copyrighted work of artists, including James Brown, Eminem, Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye.
UMG has not been financially compensated for the music leading them to file a lawsuit.
"Defendants boast on their website that their business 'was developed to eliminate contraband,' yet the infringing copies of Plaintiffs' sound recordings and musical compositions, in which Defendants unlawfully transact and from which they unjustly profit, are contraband personified," states a lawsuit filed by UMG. "Mixtapes are a form of recorded music in which DJs combine (or 'mix') tracks, often recorded by different artists, onto a single CD, sometimes creating overlaps and fades between songs, and/or reflecting a common theme or mood. Such so-called 'mixtapes,' unless authorized by the copyright owner or owner of corresponding state law rights, are nothing more than collections of infringing, piratical compilations of copyrighted or otherwise legally protected sound recordings and copyrighted musical composition."
Universal is demanding maximum statutory damages in the amount of $150,000 to each copyrighted work infringed, according to Billboard. The plaintiff also is asserting state unfair competition claims and seeking the imposition of a constructive trust, restitution of unlawful proceeds, punitive damages and more.

Crunchy Black will have some explaining to do to a judge when Minnesota police catch up with him. The 38-year old Memphis rapper, real name Darnell Carlton, was scheduled to appear in November to face charges of cocaine possession and physically assaulting his girlfriend, but skipped out. A warrant has now been issued for his arrest.
The trouble started in March at a Minnesota hotel, according to TMZ.
Guests reported hearing a woman screaming and thumping noises coming from the rapper's room. When a member of the hotel's staff went to investigate they found out Black's girlfriend had locked herself in a bathroom.
She refused to come out until Black promised "stop beating her." Police were called and noticed that the victim had facial injuries. There was also blood on the bed and door frame.
During his arrest police found cocaine on the rapper. He was hauled off to jail and charged two felony counts of domestic assault and one felony count of drug possession
Black is a member of Da Mafia 6ix, formerly known as Three Six Mafia.

Booze told TMZ that a photo Snoop posted of him on January 3, 2015 with the caption, "Whose auntcle is this," has led to an onslaught of insults by other users.
According to Booze, people began calling him a she-male, faggot, punk, confused, ugly and other derogatory names. He reported the photo to Instagram's staff, but they elected not to take it down.
Booze is now planning to sue The Doggfather.

Iggy Azalea had a break out year in 2014. The 23-year old Sydney, Australia native released her debut album, The New Classic, in May. The project spawned the hits "Fancy" and "Work."
During that time she's received criticism from Lord Jamar, Azealia Banks and others for not being a real part of hip hop culture.
She also battled with ex-boyfriend Jefe Wine over a sex tape the two reportedly shot and music he allegedly stole from her computer when they were together, then later attempted to sell via an EP before Iggy's lawyer got it pulled from all retail outlets. A court case is pending.
During a new interview with Lisa Robinson of Vanity Fair, Iggy addresses those issues and more.
Lisa Robinson: Do you think it's weird for a white Australian girl to be a rapper?
Iggy Azalea: Well, I never thought it was strange. If you go back to the Rolling Stones and Elvis Presley and Eminem—they've all basically done black music. I felt this wasn't that far from what we've seen in music history over and over again.
Do you think the criticism aimed at you is misogynistic?
Well, they don't say that stuff about Macklemore. So, yes, I think it has 100,000 percent to do with the fact that I have a vagina.
How did the success of “Fancy” change your life?
In every possible way. Some bad, some good. I can't walk down the street anymore, and I have to be very selective when I grocery shop. I went from having nothing to having everything I could possibly want. It's weird. It's almost scarily easy to quickly forget that you had nothing.
You said you had one pair of shoes for two years.
I did, and the leather would wear off and I would color them in with a marker to keep them looking black. I'm doing a shoe collaboration with Steve Madden now—when I first came to America I thought the Steve Madden brand was the pinnacle of high fashion, because the shoes were $200. And I thought, Who the fuck has $200 to buy shoes?
You live in L.A. with your boyfriend, the Los Angeles Lakers' Nick Young. Did you give him the nickname Swaggy P?
No. He named himself.
Can't you get him to change it?
I'm trying.
Twerking used to be part of your on-stage performances—how do you feel about that move now?
Sometimes things become part of pop culture, but they run their course. I think it's time for it to be over.
You said there's a side of you that's not cool. What did you mean?
I'm a homebody. I already did all my wild shit. And that will wear you out. I'm glad I did all that early, because now I have so much to talk about in my music, and I don't have to worry that I'm going to spiral out of control.
Wasn't there something on the Internet about you and a sex tape?
Every week I have some sort of crisis that involves the Internet. I do not have a sex tape; I would remember if I had a sex tape. But if I did have a sex tape it would be completely fucking fine and my own business.
So rumors like this would be the downside of “Fancy.”
Yes. Having my mother ask me or having people I love wonder if it's true. That would be the downside to “Fancy.”

Beanie Sigel has finally been released from the hospital after spending a month there recovering from a gunshot wound suffered on December 5, outside of his Pleasantville, New Jersey home.
Reports of the incident are sketchy. Sigel was reportedly returning home after dropping his kids off at school when he observed a fight. At some point the rapper was shot in the stomach. The bullet exited his back.
The former Roc-A-Fella Records artist is not believed to have been the intended target. The shooter has not been caught, but several suspects are being looked at, including Sigel's sister-in-law.
Doctors were unable to save one of the State Property boss' lungs. Upon his release from the hospital he was taken to Bacharach Institute for Rehabilitation in Pomona, New Jersey. He'll spend the next three months there learning how to live with one lung, according to TMZ.
We're pulling for Beans, real name Dwight Grant, and wish him a speedy recovery.

(Reuters) - A vicious Mexican drug gang forced some members to eat the hearts of murder victims as part of a gruesome initiation rite to root out infiltrators, a government security official said on Tuesday, citing witness testimony.
For much of the past year, Michoacan, a mountainous, agricultural state in western Mexico, has been ravaged by fighting between drug gang henchmen and vigilantes who took up arms against the cartels but have since splintered into violent factions.
A mid-December shootout between two rival groups that killed 11 people has reignited fears the government is failing to control the state after flooding it with federal troops and pressing vigilantes into a fledgling rural police force.
The renewed fighting in Michoacan comes as President Enrique Pena Nieto faces his deepest crisis since taking office, following the apparent murder of 43 trainee teachers by a drug gang working with corrupt police in neighboring Guerrero state.
The incident sparked widespread protests against the government, compounded by conflict-of-interest scandals enveloping the president and his finance minister. Pena Nieto was expected to discuss Mexico's chronic violence with U.S. President Barack Obama in Washington on Tuesday.
The main gangs operating in Michoacan, La Familia Michoacana, and later offshoot the Knights Templar cartel, were founded by Nazario Moreno, or "The Craziest One," a cultish crime boss who was finally killed in March 2014 after the previous government declared him dead in 2010.
Nazario Moreno
Interviewed on local television, Alfredo Castillo, Michoacan's federal security commissioner, denied cannibalism was widespread, but said there were various testimonies indicating heart-eating was part of a macabre initiation Moreno used to root out moles or test his men's loyalty.
"The ritual ranged from dismembering people they intended to kill to sometimes serving up the heart," Castillo said.
He did not elaborate on who provided the testimony and did not specify when and where the alleged initiation rituals took place. Castillo could not immediately be reached for comment.
More than 100,000 people have been killed in gang-related violence in Mexico since 2007.
