TMZ reports that there were three awards offered for information leading to the capture of Dorner. The mayor of Los Angeles offered a $1 million award, which was funded by private citizens. The stipulation is that Dorner must be “captured and convicted” before anyone can be given the reward money.

The L.A. City Council announced a reward for $100,000 for information leading to “the identification, apprehension, and conviction” of Dorner. Though, if Dorner is officially announced dead, there may be an issue with the “conviction” part. Sources in the City Council tell TMZ that there is a disagreement between the Legislative Analyst and the City Attorney over how to interpret the reward language.

The L.A. County Board of Supervisors also offered a $100,000 reward for information leading to the ex-cop’s capture. Though one source said that Dorner was “cornered,” not captured.

Simply put: No one may get a dime of the reward money. There is no word on whether the rules will be amended to accommodate citizens for any information that helped law enforcement in the presumed capture and death of Dornor.

For the exercise, NewsOne asked readers to use only one word to describe or rate the President’s performance, and the responses reflected just how passionate our readers really are. With some describing the address as “excellent,” others called the President a “liar,” while others still said that the presidential address was “outstanding.” To showcase your responses, we collected and rated them using a Wordle-word cloud, which is a tool takes text and displays them in a cloud form (pictured above). The larger and more pronounced the words appear reflects the number of times those particular words were repeated by readers.

CHICAGO  — A jury has convicted a Chicago attorney of murdering former NBA center Eddy Curry‘s ex-girlfriend and infant daughter four years ago.

Fredrick Goings showed no reaction when the jury’s guilty verdict was read Tuesday in the January 2009 shooting deaths of 24-year-old Nova Henry and her and Curry’s 10-month-old daughter, Ava.

Goings represented Henry in a child custody case against the former Chicago Bulls, New York Knicks and Miami Heat center, and was also romantically involved with her. Prosecutors say Henry tried to end her relationship with Goings and moved out with her and Curry’s two children.

They say Goings shot Henry in her home while she was holding the infant. Her and Curry’s son, who was then 3 years old, was also in the home but wasn’t harmed.

Curry, who now plays in China, didn’t testify.

Henry’s mother, Yolan Henry, said expressed relief after the hearing, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.

“I’m feeling elated. I can breathe,” she said. “I feel justice has been served.”

Yolan Henry testified that she found her surviving grandson, Noah, with the bodies of his sister and mother, and that he told her, “Fredrick did it.”

Attorneys for Goings maintained that he was innocent and said there was no physical evidence linking him to the killings.

In one of the largest cases of animal cruelty, Loney L. Garrett (pictured) was arrested on Monday and charged with the ill treatment of animals, after Berkeley County, S.C., deputies discovered the remains of more than 200 dogs in his backyard, 45 of which were barely alive, reports ABC News 4.

SEE ALSO: Black History: Blacks And Cops

The Sheriff’s office was contacted when neighbors complained of an unexplained horrific stench that permeated through the air from Garrett’s property.

When deputies arrived at Garrett’s home, investigators could reportedly see animal bones that had been haphazardly discarded on the surface of a ditch. According to officers, Garrett had not even made an attempt to bury the dogs in many instances.

Police officials spent hours rummaging through Garrett’s backyard, where they unearthed thousands of bones.

Some of the dogs, according to investigators, had bullet wounds to the head.

The officers staked pink flags into the ground in order to mark the carcasses of the dogs.

According to Dan Moon, who spoke to ABC News 4, he had never heard of an animal cruelty case of this magnitude before.  Some of the dog bones had been there for years, according to Moon.

The 45 dogs that were still breathing when found were emaciated and nearly on the brink of death.   “I don’t know how many of them will make it,” Moon said. “They are so emaciated, just skin and bones.”

Watch video of this incident here:

Still, Garrett’s daughter-in-law, Diane Luckie, is staunchly defending Garrett, telling ABC News 4, “He’s not a bad person. He’s not done anything wrong but love those animals.”

Luckie is disturbed by the fact that deputies have placed caution tape in front of her father-in-law’s home and feels they are making him out to be an unfeeling and cruel individual.

“This is his hobby is to hunt deer and rabbits. He enjoys everything that he does with those dogs. He has no intentions to hurt those animals,” Luckie added.

Regarding the 45 fragile dogs police found — which reportedly have skeletal frames due to malnutrition — Luckie contends, “Those are hunting dogs. They run. They carry their weight off,” she said. “You don’t want no fat dog.”

The case is still being investigated.

The faceless woman behind the botched butt implant YouTube video that went viral late last year went public for the first time on “Trisha Goddard,” a one-hour NBC daytime talk show.

Renee, who did not want to give her last name, spoke on a segment titled “My extreme butt implants nearly killed me.” RadarOnline got previews of the show exclusively. She told Trisha how she first realized that something was amiss about her surgery. “I was showing my girlfriend how I could reach up under the implant and it just kind of flipped and freaked me out,” she said. “I started getting really sick, I couldn’t breath.”

As NewsOne previously reported, Renee posted the video in November. She is shown in the 21-second clip flipping the implant and telling the camera, “I don’t think an implant’s supposed to do that. It shouldn’t be able to flip.”

See the video below:

A plastic surgeon told the New York Daily News the problem with the implants was that they were too large. “That implant appears to be among the largest available for implantation. It’s just huge,” he said. “It’s way too big for her body.”

“Most implants we use contain around 320 (cubic centimeters of silicone gel),” he said. “That woman appears to have 700 or 800 cc implants. That’s the size of a dinner plate,” he added.

During the show, Renee showed the audience the butt implants that she flipped around during the YouTube clip, causing a loud gasp in the studio. As for Renee, she had a message for anyone wanting to augment their appearance: “Love the skin you’re in. Please don’t go and do this stuff to yourself.  If more people would come out and tell their stories then less women would go and do this.”

RELATED: Dynasty Myles’ Body Found In Abandoned House

Dynasty Myles‘ body was found inside of an abandoned home in Detroit last week. She had been shot point blank range in the head. Her stepmother, Tara Paymon, was tasked with identifying the body. “It’s horrible the feeling, the hurt, the pain, the loss,” Paymon. “It’s unexplainable. You can’t explain it.”

“To me, you only see stuff like this in TV shows, she added. “You would never think it would be close to home.”

As NewsOne previously reported, Myles dropped off her six-year-old daughter with her father and stepmother at their Southfield home on New Year’s Day. That was the last time anyone from her family saw her alive. Though she did call that night around 9 a.m. to say she would drop off some clothing for her daughter the next morning.

She never showed up.

After a missing persons report was filed, police found her vehicle out outside of a restaurant in Dearborn, a suburb of Detroit. Surveillance video shows her getting  into a silver, late model Dodge Durango. Sources tell Fox 2 News that Myles knew the man inside of the vehicle. The man had been robbed earlier that week and he may have believed that Myles has something to do with it. Police say that the man took her to an unknown location, shot her execution style in the back of the head and dumped her inside of an abandoned house.

Myles’ family has been hit hard by her death but Paymon says that the toughest part was telling her 6-year-old daughter that her mother is gone.

“She looks just like her,” Paymond said. “To know this little girl is going to grow up without her mother, I mean that’s horrible.

Myles’ family has set up a fund to cover her funeral expenses and anything left over will go to support her daughter. Donations can be made to the Dynasty Myles Memorial Fund at any Bank of America location.
