Arrests made after 2024 fatal shooting in Fort Pierce
FORT PIERCE – Police on June 5 announced two arrests in a 2024 shooting case that left an 18-year-old man dead, records state. Slain in the March 16, 2024, incident just east of North 23rd Street and Avenue C was Jackson Romanello, Fort Pierce Police stated. Over the past year, investigators determined David Harris III, 19, of Fort Pierce, shot Romanello during a drug transaction initiated by Romanello and Jerimah Nelson, 21, who was arrested June 3 in Flagler County on a variety of mainly drug charges. Police found Romanello in the driver's seat of a Honda Pilot with an apparent gunshot wound to the head. The Honda was just south of an apartment building where investigators said Harris lives. Police Maj. Eric Chan on June 5 said two individuals contacted police shortly after the shooting and said they were in the vehicle with Romanello at the time. 'Detectives interviewed them and from them they developed leads which they had to follow through on, which led to the identification of these two individuals (Nelson and Harris).' According to records, investigators determined Romanello and Nelson exchanged text messages for several weeks before the shooting regarding Nelson buying marijuana and Adderall pills from Romanello, who was living in Fort Myers. Chan said the two people in the Honda with Romanello didn't know Harris and Nelson. 'They painted a picture of what was going on so that we could follow up,' he said. Chan said the investigation took more than a year. 'We wanted to make sure that we corroborated any statements and/or other leads that we got,' Chan said. 'We did search warrants and subpoenas to gather information that required analyzing.' He said Nelson moved to Palm Coast. Chan said it was 'a robbery gone bad by David Harris.' According to statements in records, Harris put a gun to the left side of Romanello's head and told him not to move or he would be shot. Romanello put the Honda in gear and Harris fired a single shot. Police found a 9mm cartridge casing at the scene.

Lawless LA Riots for Illegals, Again
An ICE immigration raid in LA went about as you'd expect in lawless LA! I'm Tomi Lahren, more next. I am fully convinced LA is unsaveable. Here's another reason, a Friday ICE operation in LA went way south after illegal immigrant advocates went berserk, obstructed law enforcement agents and officers, blocked streets and demonstrated their typical feral behavior. Dozens have already been arrested for their unlawful obstruction and unhinged behavior. Police also had to use flash bangs and tear gas to hold them back. And even worse, you had everyone from the mayor to the LA police chief condemning and refusing to work with ICE and DHS to get illegal immigrants arrested, detained and removed. They WANT the illegal aliens there, shielded and coddled- even the violent criminal ones. This can only be described as treason in my book. And like I said, I am fully convinced LA wants to crash and burn on purpose. There's no other explanation for this. Everyone in that godforsaken city seems to be in cahoots to destroy it. If you live in LA and you've been able to somehow escape this mind virus, get out while you can. I know some say they want to stay and fight the good fight, but at some point, it's time to call it a day.
