Arrest Made In Ambush Shooting Of L.A. Deputies In Compton: Report

Weeks ago, two Los Angeles sheriff’s deputies were sitting in their patrol vehicle in Compton when a man walked up to their car and opened fire. Both deputies were rushed to the hospital following the unprovoked act, and soon, a manhunt was underway. Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva would later call out LeBron James for his activism, telling the sports icon to match the reward set in place for information leading to an arrest. James spoke out and stated that he never promoted or incited violence against law enforcement, and didn’t have any responses for Villanueva.

On Wednesday (September 30), it was reported by CBS 2 News in L.A. that a 36-year-old man named Deonte Lee Murray has been named as a suspect and has been charged with two counts of attempted murder of a peace officer and possession of a firearm by a felon. He has pleaded not guilty to both charges.

According to the news outlet, Murray had also been charged for a separate crime involving a carjacking in Compton. In that incident, Murray stands accused of shooting a man in the leg with a high-powered rifle before stealing his car. He’s pleaded not guilty to those charges, as well. To get a gauge of this timeline, the carjacking took place on September 1, the shooting incident with the deputies was on September 12, Murray was arrested for the carjacking on September 15, and he pleaded not guilty to the carjacking charges on September 17.

He was taken into custody on the 15th after a 10-hour standoff with police. Murray’s bond was set at $1 million but has since been increased to $6.15 million and he will return to court in November.

The song is not only about disappointment, but also a rallying cry of resilience in the face of adversity.

NNORDY

 

NNORDY’s latest release, “Wrong Turn” is a fully live jazz fusion album that showcases the limitless possibilities of instrumental storytelling with the remarkable chemistry between guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums. The song has no words but is an excellent story told through musicianship and sets the stage for listeners to embark on a rich jazz experience.

“Wrong Turn” shows the strength of live performance from the get-go. Each instrument feels alive and in conversation with the others, a dynamic dialogue that develops organically over the course of the piece. Without vocal guidance, each musical phrase is left to speak for itself, giving the listener the freedom to interpret the track in their own way.

The guitar and keyboards often lead, crafting complex melodic lines and textures that give the music direction and atmosphere. Meanwhile, the bass and drums lay down a solid rhythmic base, creating movement and momentum while still leaving a lot of room for exploration. NNORDY creates a track that both dedicated jazz fans and listeners looking for something adventurous and fresh will enjoy. “Wrong Turn” shows that instrumental music can be as expressive and compelling as vocal music.
