On this day, April 16, 2013, a European court blocked Britain from extraditing a mentally ill suspect accused of trying to set up a terrorist training camp in Oregon. The European Court of Human Rights ruled that sending Haroon Aswat to a prison in the United States would breach his human rights due to the "severity of his mental condition." Aswat was arrested on a US warrant in 2005, and has been fighting extradition ever since.

Victim Torched in Car in Portland Oregon

Portland Oregon is a dangerous city lately

Portland Oregon is out of control in 2020. Unspeakable crimes seem to happen with regularity under Ted Wheeler and Kate Brown's leadership -- while most of the media remains silent.

On Friday, October 23rd at about 10:48pm., Portland Police responded with Portland Fire & Rescue to a vehicle fire in the area of Northeast 148th Avenue and Northeast San Rafael Street. Responders determined there was a person, deceased, in the vehicle.

The Oregon State Medical Examiner's Office conducted an autopsy and determined this death was a homicide. Additional information will be released at the direction of the investigators. It is not known if this incident is related to the Antifa and/or Black Lives Matter riots that have plagued the City of Portland for months.

Portland Police homicide detectives are investigating and ask that anyone with information about this incident contact Detective William Winters via email or at 503-823-0466 or Detective Anthony Merrill via email or at 503-823-4033.
