MacArthur paid Allegheny County $5,504,000 to shrink the jail. $2 million in 2018. $2 million in 2020. $1.17 million in 2022. $334,000 in 2024. The goal was 20 percent. They announced 33 to 36 percent and got renewed.
Matthew Darby was already out on bond for a rape case. He raped several other women before Alina Sheykhet was killed and after. I did the case. My supervisor declined the override. I went over her head. The magistrate kept the bond low so she would not set off our office. He posted and walked out. I said it before he was released: if he gets out, he will kill her. After she was killed, I went to every Pittsburgh newsroom. No one would touch it.
Alina Sheykhet did not have to die either. What happened to Dr. Evans started with her.
Dr. Idris Evans was 46. Killed in his bed September 24, 2026. His wife was critically injured. Their children were told to run. Elijah Hemingway walked out July 10 on nonmonetary bail, after a felony burglary. Docket MJ-05003-CR-0000741-2026.
Where did the money go? Into a smaller jail count.
Pretrial was the front door.
The dockets are the audit.

There isn’t going to be #Steeler fans in the next generation. A whole generation of ppl has only seen this. Pathetic, mediocre easy, door step teams on the way to the next game. Might as well be Jets or Raiders fans.
If you have a little one heading to kindergarten, educator @kinderwithMrsL has some tips to get them ready for the big changes coming their way.

@mcuban@Georgep61620629 And it’s really your honest opinion that this way , which hasn’t been done normally, chose the BEST candidate ? You can say that with a straight face just bc it’s “in the rules “?
@WTAE This is gonna be a hard concept to grasp but … sometimes the actions of your parents and the ppl in your circle will affect you, kid or adult. The adults could use this as a learning tool teaching the kids consequence instead of blaming everyone else
I often say that photos of Trump are like renaissance paintings.
But on this awful evening for our country, the photos feel more… Biblical. The sunlight found Trump’s bloodied face as he fell to the ground, and produced this photo
Trump 2024
You can’t make this up.
Part of Allegheny County Council’s meeting agenda for Tuesday is a proclamation recognizing Judge Xander Orenstein.
The sponsor: Bethany Hallam.
They are making a mockery of all this.
Last night, the City of Pittsburgh had only 29 officers and 2 supervisors covering the entire city.
Right now, the Zone 1 police station is 59 degrees inside because they can't regulate the temp in that building.
That ain't on the Chief. He's trying. The Mayor needs to do more.
