Lake Worth Beach man takes Plea Deal in Shooting Death

Delray Beach: Beach murder suspect accepts plea deal, doesn’t admit guilt

Facing a possible life sentence, Mark David Anderson on Wednesday accepted a plea deal that will allow him to be freed in two years in connection with the 2023 shooting death of a popular Delray Beach computer tech at a beachside condominium.

Anderson didn’t admit guilt in connection with the gunshot slaying of 58-year-old Albert Camentz during an alcohol and drug-fueled get-together at Berkshire by the Sea, 126 N. Ocean Boulevard in Delray Beach, about a block north of Atlantic Avenue.Instead, the 48-year-old Lake Worth Beach man took what is called a “best interest” plea.

That means he didn’t admit guilt but agreed to be punished, acknowledging that he could have been found guilty of second-degree murder at a trial that was to begin Monday.

The plea deal ends the bizarre case that was compromised when one of the two witnesses — Jack Feinberg — fatally shot himself last summer.

Communists behind anti-ICE protests in Austin

Socialist and communist groups coordinated 'spontaneous' anti-ICE protests in Austin, investigation finds

Within hours of an ICE officer shooting a Venezuelan national in Austin, Texas, a network of socialist and communist organizations launched a synchronized social-media campaign and mobilized protesters to the scene, all while local media described the demonstrations as spontaneous.

The shooting happened around 12:56 p.m. Central Time on Sunday, September 20, when an ICE officer fired on 28-year-old Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez during a traffic stop near Anderson Square and Research Boulevard. Pérez was hospitalized in serious but stable condition and later placed in federal custody.

By 4:19 p.m., roughly three and a half hours later, the Party for Socialism and Liberation's national X account had posted "BREAKING. MAN SHOT BY ICE AGENTS IN AUSTIN" and "ICE OUT OF AUSTIN NOW!" The Austin PSL chapter simultaneously pushed a matching graphic on Instagram, coordinating with PSL chapters in Houston, San Antonio, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Waco.

A Fox News Digital investigation traced the rapid mobilization across at least three distinct far-left organizations, the PSL, the Democratic Socialists of America's Austin chapter, and the Freedom Road Socialist Organization.

It was found that their social-media posts went live within minutes of each other, carried coordinated messaging, and funneled thousands of supporters toward the protest site before most local outlets had finished reporting the basic facts of the shooting.

The Shooting the Networks Couldn't Report Straight

ABC and NBC Sided With a Wanted Murderer Over the Agents Who Stopped Him

ICE agents cornered a federally designated terrorist Tuesday morning – a man wanted for murder in El Salvador.

He tried to run them over with his car. Now ABC and NBC are upset about what happened next. The facts are not in dispute.

ICE agents conducted a targeted vehicle stop near Interstate 5 in Patterson, California, to arrest Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez – a confirmed member of the 18th Street Gang, a State Department-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization, wanted in El Salvador for questioning in connection with a murder.

When agents approached the car, Hernandez reversed into a truck, then swung the vehicle forward toward the officers.

ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons did not mince words: "The wanted gang member weaponized his vehicle in an attempt to run an officer over. Following their training, our officers fired defensive shots to protect themselves, their fellow agents, and the public."

Dashcam footage confirmed it.

ABC said it showed how "volatile" the Trump administration's immigration enforcement campaign "remains.

What the news media did was find a sympathetic frame, attach an unrelated controversy, make the men and women doing the arresting the story – instead of the federally designated terrorist who just tried to kill them.

Tuesday's ICE agents did their jobs, followed their training, and came home safe.

That's the story ABC and NBC couldn't tell.

Jerry Nadler calling for people to shoot ICE agents

ANOTHER Democrat calls shooting ICE agents 'justified' — and Vance doesn't hold back

Nadler's justification of shooting federal agents greatly resembles Arizona AG Mayes' controversial comments last month.

Democrats have worked overtime to demonize and delegitimize the men and women of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement — those whom Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz branded as "Trump's modern-day Gestapo," Sen. Tina Smith (Minn.) called a "clear and present threat," Rep. Eric Swalwell (Calif.) dubbed "terrorizing bandits," and Democrat anchor-baby Rep. Delia Ramirez (Ill.) called a "terror force."

In addition to Rep. Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, and other Democrats threatening lawfare against ICE officers, some radical officials have turned up the heat by suggesting that it may be reasonable to shoot masked federal immigration agents.

Vice President JD Vance was among the many critics who blasted Nadler over his incendiary remarks, noting, "Jerry Nadler is one of the highest ranking Democrats in the House of Representatives and he is openly calling for people to shoot federal law enforcement."

"This is despicable behavior from an elected official and I'm sure the leftwing media will cover it extensively," added Vance.

Why isn't he arrested?

Why Pretti shooting was justified

The ICE Shooting Was Justified

There’s a short way to understand the ICE shooting of Alex Pretti. Watch the video. Listen to the analysis. It lines up with the law.

Andrew Branca is an attorney and a recognized expert in self-defense law. He walks through the moments that led to the shooting. He uses plain language. No fluff. Just law and facts.

Here are the key lines from Branca’s breakdown, transcribed:

• “The moment he makes contact with that officer, he’s just committed a federal felony good for eight years in a federal penitentiary.”
• “That’s why they were seeking to make his arrest because they saw him commit a forcible felony against a fellow officer.”
• “Then he’s noncompliant with arrest. He’s fighting them. Then they discover he has a gun…”
• “They take that gun. There are cries of ‘gun, gun, gun.’ The officers called to each other. He’s still noncompliant. They hear a gunshot go off. And Alex Pretty’s right hand comes from his waistline with a black object in his hand.”
• “That combination of facts is going to get you shot 999 times out of a thousand by law enforcement, and justifiably so.”

Vance Points to Engineered Chaos in Minneapolis

Vice President Vance condemns Minneapolis unrest as organized disruption

Vice President JD Vance called the turmoil in Minneapolis, Minnesota, a deliberate act of disruption following violent clashes involving U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers on Saturday.

The incident occurred when federal agents conducting a targeted operation against an unauthorized migrant wanted for violent assault shot an armed man near a local donut shop, with crowds quickly gathering and blocking roads while surrounding vehicles.

Official reports confirm the suspect carried a 9mm handgun and two additional full magazines and resisted agents before shots were fired.

The fallout has sparked sharp debate over who bears responsibility for the escalating disorder. Critics point to a troubling alliance between far-left activists and local officials, suggesting their actions have fueled the volatile atmosphere.

This isn’t just random frustration; it’s a pattern that raises questions about governance in Democrat-run areas.

Democrats fanning the flames

In the fog of political warfare, truth is often the first casualty

Within hours of Wednesday’s fatal shooting in Minneapolis, the battle lines were drawn—a mother of three killed by a federal agent, protests erupting in the streets, and Democratic officials racing to microphones to condemn Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

But as so often happens when the Left rushes to judgment, the full picture was still developing.

Renee Nicole Good, 37, was shot by ICE agent Jonathan Ross during an enforcement operation in a residential Minneapolis neighborhood.

The immediate aftermath played out—and I mean predictably down to the script—with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey declaring the Department of Homeland Security’s explanation “bullst” and telling ICE to “get the f* out of Minneapolis.” Governor Tim Walz activated the National Guard while simultaneously suggesting “it feels very, very difficult that we will get a fair outcome.” Schools closed. Flags burned. A GoFundMe surpassed $1.5 million.

The narrative was set: trigger-happy federal agent guns down innocent woman. Sound familiar? It should. But newly released video footage, captured from Agent Ross’s own cellphone, tells a dramatically different story.

You want to come at us? Go get yourself some lunch, big boy,” Rebecca Good jeered at the officer. Moments later, as agents attempted to open the car door, she shouted at her wife: “Drive, baby, drive, drive.”

And drive she did. Good threw the vehicle into gear and accelerated forward, striking the agent. Three shots followed. The car careened down the street and crashed, engine still revving.

National Guardsman Andrew Wolfe slowly healing

National Guard soldier Andrew Wolfe ‘slowly healing’ after DC shooting, but has weeks to go

West Virginia National Guardsman Andrew Wolfe is beginning to “look more like himself” after he was shot the day before Thanksgiving in an ambush-style attack in Washington, D.C., which also claimed the life of fellow National Guard officer Sarah Beckstrom.

West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey relayed the update before attending a Friday night prayer vigil for Wolfe at Musselman High School in Berkeley County, from where the 24-year-old graduated.

Morrisey added that Wolfe’s head wound is “slowly healing,” and his family expects he’ll remain in acute care for another two to three weeks.

“They remain optimistic moving forward,” the governor said, citing Wolfe’s parents. “We continue to ask all West Virginians and Americans for their prayers! They are making a difference!”

Wolfe, a staff sergeant, had been deployed to the nation’s capital when both he and Beckstrom were shot in the head at close range on Nov. 26, just blocks away from the White House. They were in D.C. as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to crack down on what it has called rampant crime in major cities across the U.S.

29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, then fired off another shot while screaming out, “Allahu Akbar,” an Arabic phrase meaning “God is great,” the documents said.

Wounded National Guardsman hangs on to life

Wounded Guardsman Gives Thumbs Up, Wiggles Toes

As investigators continue to probe what motivated a man to gun down two West Virginia National Guard members, killing one just blocks from the White House, officials said on Monday that the victim who survived the attack was making positive progress.

The suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old married father of five from Bellingham, Washington, allegedly drove cross-country to commit the Thanksgiving eve shooting in the heart of the nation’s capital, officials said.

Army Spc. Sarah Beckstrom and U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, members of the West Virginia National Guard were "ambushed" while conducting "high visibility patrols" at the time of the attack, according to law enforcement officials. The 20-year-old Beckstrom was killed while the 24-year-old Wolfe was critically injured, authorities said.

During a news conference on Monday afternoon, West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey said Wolfe is in serious condition and is "fighting for his life."

Morrisey revealed "some positive news" about Wolfe's condition, saying that when a nurse asked him to give a thumbs up if he could hear, "he did respond."

Who was Thomas Crooks?

FBI Goes into Damage Control Mode After Tucker’s Butler Documentary

Tucker Carlson’s documentary on the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, PA, was viewed by more than 20 million people on social media after it was released last Thursday.

It was one of the only things people were talking about online. The documentary left many of us wondering why there are still so many holes in the story after all this time.

It’s obvious that Thomas Matthew Crooks was working for someone else, and the FBI has been keenly intent on making sure that the public doesn’t learn more about this. Has the FBI been intentionally bungling the investigation, or was it deliberately tanked?

Tucker’s documentary didn’t pull any punches. The FBI didn’t exactly cover itself in glory with the Butler investigation, and the bureau doesn’t come out looking great.

Nathaniel Brazill - Summer Break Goodbye Turns Deadly

Lake Worth Middle School shooter shares ‘biggest regret,’ hopes for second chance after prison release

A shooting happened in the final minutes of the final day of school before summer break, just outside a classroom at Lake Worth Middle School.

Investigators said one shot was fired by a 13-year-old student, claiming the life of beloved teacher Barry Grunow.

It’s been more than 25 years since the shooting on May 26, 2000. The shooter, Nathaniel Brazill, was ultimately convicted of second-degree murder and aggravated assault with a weapon without intent to kill.

With less than three years left on his 28-year prison sentence, Brazill spoke one-on-one with WPTV anchor Hollani Davis inside Quincy Annex, a correctional institution outside Tallahassee, about the moment that changed his life and his decades behind bars.

“I don’t remember pulling the trigger,” Brazill recalled. “I think the gun went off, and then I ran.”

Earlier in the day, Brazill was suspended for his involvement in a water balloon fight. Investigators said the seventh-grade student left school, went home to retrieve a gun he stole from his grandfather, and returned to campus.

School surveillance video shows Brazill walking down a hallway just moments before he fired a single shot at Grunow.

Brazill told WFLX he wanted to say goodbye to two of his best friends before summer break, but Mr. Grunow would not let him inside his classroom. That’s when Brazill pulled out a 25-caliber handgun and shot Grunow in the head.

Michigan Church Shooting: 2 Killed, 9 Wounded as Gunman Opens Fire and Burns Building

Authorities have identified the gunman who rammed a truck into a Latter-day Saints church in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, before opening fire and setting the building ablaze.

The attacker, 40-year-old Iraq War veteran Thomas Jacob Sanford, killed at least two people and wounded nine others before dying in a shootout with police.

Thre are still no details as of this writing on his motives. Of course, Democrats are implying, as he is a veteran, that he must be a Trump supporter. Have you ever seen a deranged looking Trump supporter who hated Christians?

Illegal Alien killed by ICE Agent

Illegal Alien from Mexico Shot Dead After Hitting ICE Agent with Car

A man was shot and killed by ICE agents in the Chicago area after driving a car at an officer, immigration officials confirmed.

Officials named him as Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez and said he was in the country illegally,date unknown when he entered.

A video posted online showed the moment a lorry driver called police to report his vehicle had been hit by the man’s car in Franklin Park village, 15 miles north-west of Chicago.

“I’m a CDL (commercial driver’s licence) truck driver,” the driver says. “A car hit my trailer. I think ICE tried to pull him over and he crashed into my trailer.”

A spokesman for the department of homeland security (DHS) said Friday morning’s incident occurred during “an enforcement operation targeting a criminal illegal alien.”

He refused to follow law enforcement commands and drove his car at law enforcement officers,” said a DHS statement. “One of the ICE officers was hit by the car and dragged a significant distance. Fearing for his own life, the officer fired his weapon.”

Ilhan Omar caught smiling outside where the massacre took place

Ilhan Omar Smiles at Catholic Church Shooting Site While Democrats Push Gun Control

The nation is still reeling after the horrific shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church and School in Minneapolis, where two children were killed and 17 others injured.

The gunman, Robin Westman, a transgender biological male, reportedly left behind writings expressing regret over his gender reassignment and hatred for both Catholics and President Donald Trump. It was a tragedy that should have united leaders in grief and solidarity with the victims. Instead, a viral photo of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) smiling at the scene has ignited a firestorm of criticism.

Omar represents the very district where the massacre took place. She arrived at the site, made brief comments about the “unspeakable horror,” and praised investigators.

Yet the viral image — Omar laughing casually with someone outside the church where children had been gunned down in prayer — struck a nerve. For many Americans, this wasn’t just a bad photo-op. It was a glimpse into how detached and cynical some politicians really are.

One Year Today

And we still have not been told much of anything about this shooter

A new report on the Butler, Pa., assassination attempt on President Trump reveals that the Secret Service received classified intelligence regarding a threat to Trump's life 10 days before the rally, but failed to share the information with other key agencies.

The damning report comes from the federal Government Accountability Office (GAO) one year after a gunman's bullet grazed Trump's right ear during a campaign rally speech. The shooter, Thomas Crooks, killed attendee Cory Comperatore as he was protecting his family, while two others were injured.

According to Fox News, the report also identified a series of procedural and planning mistakes, including "misallocation of resources, lack of training and pervasive communication failures" that led to the near assassination.

The report had been ordered by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.

Three Tragedies Lake Worth Beach/WPB

PBSO Investigates Triple Tragedy: Double Homicide, Near-Drowning Death, and Shooting in Lake Worth Beach

By Bocatribune

By Police Team News

Lake Worth Beach, FL – April 13, 2025 — Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office (PBSO) detectives are actively investigating three separate incidents that occurred on Saturday, April 12, 2025, in the Lake Worth Beach area. The day saw a tragic drowning, a non-fatal shooting, and a double homicide, all reported within a span of less than two hours.

1.  1:38 PM – Shooting on S. Dixie Hwy
Deputies responded to reports of a shooting in the 1600 block of S. Dixie Highway. Upon arrival, they located a male victim with a gunshot wound. He was transported to a nearby hospital and is expected to survive, according to the latest update from PBSO. A person of interest has been identified. Authorities confirmed there is no current threat to the public.

2.  2:09 PM – Near-Drowning Turns Fatal at Lake Worth Beach
A near-drowning incident involving three juveniles occurred in the 3000 block of S. Ocean Blvd, where the swimmers were caught in a strong riptide. Lifeguards and Palm Beach County Fire Rescue (PBCFR) provided immediate CPR before all three were rushed to area hospitals.

Tragically, 17-year-old Oliver Vasquez-Perez, born March 8, 2008, was pronounced deceased at Bethesda Hospital East. The two other juveniles, ages 12 and 17, were transported to St. Mary’s Medical Center, where they remain conscious, alert, and in stable condition.

3.  3:00 PM – Double Homicide on Nokomis Ave
Later that afternoon, deputies responded to reports of a shooting in the 3700 block of Nokomis Avenue, where they discovered two adult males deceased from apparent gunshot wounds.

The suspect, identified as Erasmo Perazaledesma, 64, of Lake Worth Beach, sustained minor injuries and was transported to a hospital. Upon medical clearance, he was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail.

Perazaledesma now faces two counts of First Degree Premeditated Murder and one count of Felon in Possession of a Firearm. He is being held without bond and will appear for his first hearing today.
