Deadly Kroger Shooting: The Security Impact
Columbus Kroger shooting impacting shoppers and those in private security
Scary
moments for customers and workers at a west side Kroger as
gunfire rang out in the supermarket. Police are investigating after they
said a security officer shot and killed 26-year-old Paris Royal during an
altercation Sunday about 6:45 p.m.
Dean Boerger trains security officers through his company Strategic
Training Group. Boerger tells us the case will likely have an impact on those in
the profession. “Nobody wants to take anybody’s life or be in that kind of
situation where they have to make that kind of decision,” said Boerger.
“I think it has a big impact on whether other security
officers feel that they may be prepared for that kind of a situation,
able to handle that kind of situation appropriately and effectively,” said
Boerger.
Boerger said the incident points to the need to increase the 20-hour course
required for security officers to carry a firearm. With more gun violence,
Boerger said security officers are on heightened awareness.
“So they definitely need to be more aware of how people are acting. Are
they acting suspicious? Where do they have their hands? What are they doing when
they walk into the store, do they feel they may be a threat?”
Kroger did not address questions from WSYX about whether their security
officers in central Ohio are all armed. Kroger issued a statement Monday.
“We are deeply saddened by the shooting incident that occurred at our Soldano
Blvd store. As this is an active case we will continue to cooperate with
local law enforcement and do not have any additional information to share at
this time.”

Solving Philadelphia's Homicide Epidemic
The solution to Philly’s gun violence is ‘1% Rambo and 99% Mr. Rogers’ says one
of Pa.’s first Black state troopers
Gun violence roiling Philadelphia resulted
in 516 deaths last year
Brooks said we first need to stop reacting: “It isn’t being properly
addressed. Gun violence is not a police problem, it’s a community problem,”
Brooks said adding, “Police can only do reports after the crime has occurred.
Brooks retired in 1992 and for 30 years he has been running his own consulting
firm with an expertise in training on how to respond effectively and
empathetically to conflict, especially in diverse environments.
He said reducing the city’s homicide rate will require
understanding that youths kill one another because of low self-esteem.
He has even created an acronym, LSMFT — Low Self-esteem Means Friction and
Trouble.
“Boys killing boys need to discover who they are and what they have to
offer,” Brooks said.
And his own vast policing experiences have taught him that responding to
Philadelphia’s gun violence will require all stakeholders to come to the table —
community, politicians, courts, and the district attorney, as well as the
police.
“It’s not about arrests. Arrest was only 1% of what I did. It’s about how
to come together as a community. It’s 1% Rambo and 99% Mr. Rogers.”

Illinois Assault Weapons Ban Gets Pushback
from Law Enforcement
Local sheriffs are refusing to enforce the new assault weapons ban in Illinois
Some law enforcement agencies in Illinois
said that they wouldn't enforce a new law that bans the sale of assault-style
weapons.
Multiple
law enforcement agencies in the state of Illinois said that they would not
enforce new legislation that bars sale of assault-style weapons, arguing
it violates the Second Amendment, according to reports.
Sheriffs in Illinois counties, including DeKalb, LaSalle, DuPage, and
McHenry, among others, have publicly made their stance about the Protect
Illinois Communities Act,
WABC-TV reported on Friday.
The legislation, which also
bans the sale and manufacturing of high-capacity magazines, was passed
earlier this month as an effort to prevent gun violence.
"We won't sacrifice safety, but at end of the day, we believe we have to do
what is right for our own communities," McHenry County Sheriff Robb Tadelman
told the outlet.

Undoing the Damage of 'Defund the Police'
LAPD Looks to Rehire Retired Officers amid Shrinking Ranks
LAPD officials have plans that call for up
to 200 retired police officers to be rehired, as about 600 cops are expected to
retire or leave in the next year.
The Los Angeles Police Department is making a simple but unusual pitch to its
retired cops: Come back. Please.
Faced with a flood of departures and a trickle of recruits entering its
training academy that have led to dwindling staffing levels, LAPD officials
have drawn up plans that call for as many as 200 retired police officers to be
rehired. On the campaign trail in her recent race for mayor, Karen Bass
pledged to rebuild the department's ranks to 9,700 officers as the city
confronts violent crime rates that remain above pre-pandemic levels.
Bass didn't say how quickly she wanted to reach her goal, but, with about 9,200
officers currently on the force and the department failing to attract enough
new recruits to keep up with the pace of attrition, making good on her
promise anytime soon will be very difficult. About 600 cops are expected to
retire or leave for other reasons in the next year — about 20% higher than the
typical departure rate, according to LAPD Chief Michel Moore.
As a stopgap measure, the department hopes a rarely used bureaucratic
mechanism will allow it to regain lost ground. Known informally as the
"bounce program," it allows the chief of police to bring retired officers back
for up to a year. It typically has been used sparingly in the past to recall an
individual officer whose specialized skill sets make them hard to replace, such
as a homicide detective who retired while working a case that might otherwise
fall without their involvement.
"This would allow us to bring back police officers, detectives and sergeants
so that they could work for up to one year," Moore said in an interview last
week. "It's a short-term, interim strategy. It's not one that I would like to
see us become dependent on."

Softening Penalties for Violent Criminals
DC council softens penalties for violent crimes by overriding mayor's veto of
criminal code rewrite
The District of Columbia City Council voted to force through revisions of the
district's criminal code that will soften penalties on violent crimes,
overriding a previous veto from the mayor's office.
The overhaul of the city’s criminal code includes reduced maximum sentences,
the elimination of nearly all mandatory minimum sentences, and expanded rights
to jury trials by those accused of misdemeanors.
Opponents have sounded the alarm on provisions that would allow D.C. inmates to
ask for early release 20 years into their sentence, even those accused of
violent
crimes like murder or sexual assault.

Workplaces Balancing Privacy with Safety
My Boss Told My Co-workers That I Had Covid. Isn’t That Illegal?
Federal guidelines require employees’ health

Supervisors are walking a fine line when it comes to Covid. Federal
guidelines require employees’ health information to be kept confidential.
But employers also have an obligation to inform workers about their potential
exposure to an infectious disease.
“Employers are in a little bit of a difficult spot here,” said Matthew T.

Remote Work: More Productive Than In Person?
73% of Managers Agree Flexible Working Boosts Productivity
A new study shows managers rate remote and
flexi-time more highly than in 2020 - but are attitudes now starting to regress?
Despite an increasing demand for employees to return to in-office work, most
managers are in favor of remote and flexible working arrangements, according
to a new study by the University of Birmingham.
The report shows that 73% of managers believe flexible working arrangements
have increased productivity, with 60% agreeing the same of employees who
choose to work from home.
New data to support remote and flexible working will come as welcome news to
many employees, as some employers are reversing remote work policies and
demanding staff return to the office, despite downsides including a historic
decline in productivity as a result.

DOJ Incentivizes Self-Disclosure & Effective
Compliance Programs
Justice Department Offers New Incentives for Companies to Self-Report Wrongdoing
DOJ Revises FCPA Corporate Enforcement Policy (CEP) - #1 Goal 'Individual
Accountability'
Companies that meet standards for cooperation would avoid prosecution*
or qualify for lower fines
The
Justice Department is expanding its leniency policies to persuade
companies to take one of the biggest risks when it comes to dealing with the
government: reporting their own misconduct to prosecutors.
Companies that disclose wrongdoing to the Justice Department won’t be
prosecuted if they fully cooperate with investigators and fix the
underlying problems, including any shortcomings in their compliance programs,
according to Assistant Attorney General Kenneth Polite Jr., who leads the
criminal division.
He outlined the new policies, which include large discounts on potential
fines. Deciding to self-report to prosecutors reflects how seriously a
corporation takes compliance and ethics.
It formally expands that treatment to other white-collar crimes, such as those
involving fraud or money laundering, even when there are aggravating factors
that in the past might have weighed against declining prosecution. It also
links incentives to the effectiveness of a company’s compliance program.
The risk of a whistleblower disclosure can make it seem wiser for a
company to tell the government first, attorneys say.
“When a company has uncovered criminal misconduct in its operations, the
clearest path to avoiding a guilty plea or an indictment is voluntary
self-disclosure,” Mr. Polite said in his speech.
wsj.com
Editor's Note: * I wouldn't agree with this writers interpretation
of "full disclosure and cooperation won't be prosecuted." As the revisions
clearly state other factors that influence the decision process. One being a
strong compliance program and the nature of the crimes. - Gus Downing

Former AP Exec - Now Lowe's CEO - On What Fueled His
Success
Marvin Ellison advises aspiring execs to ‘take tough assignments’
Marvin
Ellison, CEO at Lowe’s, speaking at the NRF Big Show, said he learned
early on that, to get ahead in his career, his best approach was to “just take
tough assignments.” True to his focus, every job he’s taken over the last 25
years — including his current role — has involved succeeding someone who was
fired or pushed out.
Oftentimes, the opportunities were ones that others felt were too risky for the
potential rewards. He said, “But I would raise my hand because it was my way to
make a contribution to the company. It’s my way to demonstrate my ability to
lead, my ability to build teams.”
Mr. Ellison, who is Black, also noted that “not too many people that look
like me” have been able to lead two Fortune 500 companies, also including
JCPenney. He also lacked “an elite education from a prestigious education
institution” and early access to executive sponsors.
His parents were “incredibly influential” in providing lessons around
perseverance that helped guide his career development. Mr. Ellison said, “Put
God first, focus on education and work hard — those were the pillars of success
that our parents gave us.”
He also admitted he struggled to “fit in” as the “only Black person” in the
corporate office, but came to realize “my greatest attribute was to be the
best, most authentic version of myself.”
He further encourages his staff to lean into their “unique diverse abilities
to solve problems.”
At Lowe’s, one of his goals is “trying to create a company I wish I could
have worked for when I was coming up the ranks.” Long curious about the
criteria that leads to major promotions, Lowe’s publishes a list of core
behaviors looked for in leaders for every associate to view.
Mr. Ellison said, “Deliver consistent results, continue to learn, take care
of the customers, take action and be courageous. These are not extraordinary
things but there are things you have to do consistently.”

Facial Recognition Takes NRF Big Show by Storm
US retail conference draws biometrics for payments, marketing and age estimation
Biometrics still plays a small role in the United States’ retail industry
compared to more conventional technologies, but innovations are working their
way in. This week's annual
National Retail Federation
convention demonstrated at least six new or newly updated biometrics
products made around the world.
Customer-loyalty
firm Brierly, based in Texas, will be talking up the integration of its
LoyaltyonDemand platform with fintech PopID’s facial biometric ID
verification algorithm. It is a point-of-sale integration designed to reduce
the friction that interferes with loyalty members’ reward redemption.
Switzerland-based Sensormatic, a unit of Johnson Controls, has registered for
NRF to demonstrate IQ-branded services
including anonymized facial recognition and emotion recognition.
Sensormatic has integrated U.S.-based Vsblty Groupe biometric software into its
product line and, in turn,
Vsblty has worked with ONYX Display Media on Cooler as a Medium, a system
expected to be on display at NRF.
Cooler – as in the large glass doors of refrigerated cases — has facial
detection algorithms but also the ability to judge age, gender and emotions via
interactive displays.

Retail Sales Dipped at Height of Holidays
U.S. Retail Sales Fell 1.1% in December
U.S. consumers cut back on retail spending at the height of the holiday season
as
consumers spent less on vehicles, in popular gift categories, and furniture.
Retail sales, a measure of purchases at stores, restaurants and online,
declined a seasonally adjusted 1.1% in December from the prior month, the
Commerce Department said Wednesday. That was the biggest monthly decline of 2022
and marked the second consecutive month of decline. November’s retail sales were
revised lower to a 1% drop.
Sales declined in a number of
gift-giving categories in December, including electronics, clothing, at
department stores and online. Dining out at bars and restaurants dropped
0.9% on the month. Sales of furniture and vehicles, which are sensitive to
higher borrowing costs, both fell sharply.

Group (ASG), a portfolio
company of Alpine
Investors that buys and builds vertical SaaS companies.
Today's announcement marks ASG's 50th software acquisition. Since 2016, ASG has

Preventing Data Breaches As Employees Return
to Work
Data security enhancements to consider as your employees return to the office
77% of IT decision makers across the United States and Canada believe
their companies are likely to face a
data breach within the next three years according to survey results
released by Adastra.
“The results of this survey should serve as a reminder that companies of all
sizes must invest in data security protection, resources and education,
particularly as we return to in-office activities,” he said.
10 data security enhancements
Insider threats – employee re-education of systems and
protocols - The unauthorized disclosure of data isn’t always the
result of malicious actors. Often, data is accidentally overshared or lost by
employees. Keep your employees informed with cyber security education. Employees
who go through regular phishing tests may be less likely to engage with
malicious actors over email or text messaging.
Know your inventory - An inventory of
software, hardware and data assets is essential. Having control over the assets
with access to your corporate environment starts with an inventory. Inventories
can be a part of the overall vulnerability management program to keep all assets
up to date, including operating systems and software.
Delete redundant data - Reducing your
overall data footprint can be an effective way of reducing risk. Data that
resides in multiple locations may not have equal protection in each environment.
Understanding what data is required and what can be archived helps to keep
control over data assets.
Early detection systems - Detecting
anomalies and suspicious activities can resolve issues before they become a
breach. Today’s XDR (extended detection and response) and EDR (endpoint
detection and response) systems include automated responses to common attacks.
Data back-ups - Having a robust, immutable
data backup plan can help an organization quickly recover from an incident. The
frequency of the data backup depends on the risk the organization is willing to
take. “Can we afford to lose a week’s worth of data or a day’s worth of data?”
Limiting staff access - Employing the least
privilege principle reduces overall risk by only allowing access to data and
services required to perform specific duties. Establishing processes for
provisioning and de-provisioning user access with approvals, audit trails,
reports, and regular attestations can limit what an attacker may be able to
access in the event of compromised credentials.
Hire a third-party company to conduct a security audit
– know your vulnerabilities - An outside assessment of your
organization’s security posture, based on established cyber security frameworks
such as NIST or CIS, can provide a clearer picture of strengths and weaknesses
and a roadmap to address your greatest vulnerabilities.
Establish new passwords with two-factor authentication

Email Programs Pose Growing Cybersecurity Risk
The big risk in the most-popular, and aging, big tech default email programs
Cybersecurity experts say email is such an
old technology it relies on operating systems vulnerable to cyber attacks and
default settings need to be updated more frequently.
All over the world, organizations of all sizes, including small businesses,
scrambled to upload patches and to figure out if they’d been infiltrated.
Despite the efforts, some were still ensnared;
at least 200 ransomware attacks were attributed to the hack, with some
businesses losing millions as they paid the criminals.
![Advertisement](https://dddaily.advertserve.com/servlet/view/banner/image/media?mid=727&pid=0&position=1&date=(date)&uuid=(email))
The hack helped to highlight the vulnerability of the 32 million small
businesses, many of which can’t afford to hire cybersecurity companies and that
mostly rely on the built-in security features of software and hardware
companies, giants like Google, Microsoft and Apple. Though the companies
have made progress and the problem isn’t new, there are still vulnerabilities,
especially in email and other software programs, including operating systems,
that were designed long before the current rash of cybercrime and cyberespionage.
″(Society) is asking small businesses to go against nations, organized criminal
groups and 16-year-olds in their basement,” says Rotem Iram, one of the founders
of startup cyber insurance company At-Bay. “The technology stack they pay for
continues to fail them, and the stack takes no responsibility.”
Microsoft has particular power in a handful of markets where it has enormous
market share, including enterprise email. Email, though an old
technology, is still used in many ransomware and phishing attacks that start by
someone clicking on a link or downloading software. Microsoft dominates the
enterprise email/word processing market, with more than 86% of market share,
according to technology research firm Gartner. Google has nearly 13%.

Selling Access to Enterprises On Underground
Forums
Initial Access Broker Market Booms, Posing Growing Threat to Enterprises
A rapid increase in the number of operators
in the space — the "locksmiths" of the cyber underground — has made it
substantially cheaper for cybercriminals to buy access to target networks.
Names such as Novelli, orangecake, Pirat-Networks, SubComandanteVPN, and
zirochka are unlikely to mean anything to a vast majority of enterprise security
teams. But for ransomware operators and other cybercriminals looking for
quick access to enterprise networks, these were the brokers to approach for a
major portion of last year.
Between them, the five entities accounted for some 25% of all access offers
to enterprise networks that were available for sale on underground forums
between the second half of 2021 and the first half of 2022. For an average
price of around $2,800, these so-called initial access brokers (IABs) sold
stolen VPN and remote desktop protocol (RDP) account details and other
credentials that criminals could use to break into the networks of more than
2,300 organizations around the world, without breaking a sweat.
The company's research showed a sharp year-over-year growth in the number of
IABs operating in underground forums and markets — from 262 in the
immediately preceding 12-month period to 380 in the period between the second
half of 2021 and the first half of 2022. Some 327 of the IABs that Group-IB
observed operating during that period were new entries in the space.

Amazon's 'Security Systems' Called Out After
Delivery Scam
Warning after Amazon customer sent dog food instead of iPhone
Consumers are being warned to film themselves opening Amazon deliveries
after a man's iPhone was switched for a packet of dog food.
Ian
Burton bought the phone on December 4 to replace his daughter's device but
received a packet of Naturo. The online retail giant initially refused to
refund the sum because Mr Burton had signed for the delivery. It has since
returned the money after being approached by the BBC's You and Yours programme.
Mr Burton, 69, told You and Yours he initially thought there had been a simple
mistake. But Amazon told him because he had accepted the parcel and given the
courier a passcode, and the fact the dog food weighed the same as an iPhone,
then he must have received the iPhone.
Mr Burton said something within Amazon's security
systems was "obviously wrong" if a high value piece of technology could be
replaced with dog food.
He said that he had reported it to the police, but was told Amazon would need
to investigate if the switch had occurred at one of its fulfilment centres
and then refer it to the relevant force.
They promised they would be conducting a "comprehensive review to identify
any areas of improvement" with the findings sent "to the appropriate leadership
team". The money was refunded to Mr Burton's account the following day.
Tech journalists and consumer champion David McClelland said he had heard
other reports of people receiving packets of dog food instead of a high-value
laptop, and in one case a box of cornflakes.
"I'm not saying there is a pattern here but currently it seems as though,
whether it's dog food or corn flakes, some people are experiencing problems in
this way."
Mr McClelland recommends that when consumers order high value items from Amazon,
they film the packaging for any signs of tampering, and film themselves
opening it.

More Amazon Warehouses Turn to High-Tech
Robots
New Amazon fulfillment center has state of the art technology helping employees
Sioux Falls is home to a brand-new, state-of-the-art Amazon Fulfillment
Center and Siouxland News got a peak inside. "We are the top-of-the-line
Amazon facility, right? Amazon has been open since 1997 and we have the best
technology," said Tim Choate, General Manager at Amazon FSD1.
The fulfillment center is located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and is
something new for the state.
"Well, this is the first fulfillment center in South Dakota. We're one of the
last remaining states, I believe," said Mayor Paul TenHaken. The new facility is
made up of many levels and has a lot of space to fill with items.
"I think we are at 38 acres total of floor space and five stories, so we
have our ground floor, our robotics mezzanine, which is right below us
and four floors of pod storage," said Choate.
Many of the robotics are there to help human workers with efficiency and
productivity.

Ring Leader of Nationwide $1.5M CC Fraud
Pleads Guilty
DOJ: Bronx Man Admits Role in Nationwide Credit Card Fraud Affecting Thousands
of Account Holders
NEWARK, N.J. – A manager for a conspiracy that used stolen credit card
information to make fraudulent retail purchases around the United States pleaded
guilty today, in Federal court. Trevor Osagie, 31, of the Bronx, New York,
pleaded guilty one count of conspiracy to commit bank fraud.
From at least 2015 through November 2018, Osagie conspired with a network of
individuals based in the New Jersey/New York area who made trips around the
United States in order to use stolen credit card information to purchase
gift cards, flights, hotels, rental cards, and other goods and services. Other
participants in the conspiracy obtained stolen credit card information
through the “dark web” and other sources. In addition to recruiting at least
one individual to create the fraudulent credit cards, Osagie managed the
individuals who traveled around the United States conducting the fraudulent
transactions. The conspirators made over $1.5 million in fraudulent purchases
using over 4,000 stolen credit card accounts.
The conspiracy to commit bank fraud charge carries a maximum sentence of 30
years in prison and a maximum fine of $1 million. Sentencing is scheduled for
May 25, 2023.

Long Island, NY: NJ woman sentenced to 2 to 6 years in prison after $90K
Balenciaga bag theft in Hamptons
A woman who was part of a group of shoplifters who stole over $90K in purses
from a Balenciaga store in the Hamptons was sentenced to prison on Tuesday.
Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney announced that Baseemah Davis will
serve 2 to 6 years in prison for her part in the March 2022 incident. According
to authorities, Davis was part of a five-person crew of thieves from Newark, New
Jersey, who walked into the luxury fashion store in East Hampton at around 1:30
p.m., grabbed nearly $94,000 worth of handbags, and ran out, fleeing in a Dodge
Durango. Police began chasing the Durango until it got a flat tire near exit 69
on the Long Island Expressway. The alleged thieves got out and three ran toward
a wooded area near the highway, while two others stayed near the vehicle. A
following search of the area led to the arrest of Davis and three other
suspects, along with the recovery of 34 stolen handbags. The fifth suspect has
still not been found.

Shootings & Deaths
Genesee County, MI: Michigan Family Gets Life in Prison for Killing Family
Dollar Guard Over Face Mask Dispute
A
married couple and their son convicted of first-degree premeditated murder in
the fatal shooting of a security guard who demanded the woman's daughter wear a
mask while shopping were sentenced Tuesday to life in prison without parole.
Larry Teague, wife Sharmel Teague, and Sharmel Teague’s son, Ramonyea Bishop,
were sentenced by Genesee Circuit Court Judge Brian Pickell in the shooting
death of Calvin Munerlyn on May 1, 2020. The three were convicted of
first-degree premeditated murder, a crime that carries a mandatory punishment of
life in prison without parole, following a trial that spanned several weeks, The
Flint Journal reported. Munerlyn, 43, was shot at the store just north of
downtown Flint shortly after telling Sharmel Teague’s daughter she had to leave
because she lacked a mask, Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton has said. Two
men later came to the store and shot the security guard to death, investigators
said. Bishop’s sister, Brya Bishop, was charged with tampering with evidence,
lying to police and being an accessory to a felony. She was sentenced in
November to time served and probation.

El Paso, TX: U.S. Prosecutors will not seek Death Penalty against accused Texas
Walmart shooter
Federal prosecutors will not seek the death penalty for the man accused of
killing 23 people and injuring dozens more in a hate crime targeting people of
Mexican descent at a Walmart store in El Paso, Texas, in 2019, a court
document filed on Tuesday showed. Prosecutors say Patrick Wood Crusius drove 11
hours to El Paso, which sits on the U.S. border with Mexico, from his hometown
of Allen, near Dallas, on Aug. 3, 2019, and then fired at shoppers with an AK-47
rifle inside the Walmart store. He surrendered to officers who confronted him
outside. Crusius, who also faces state charges in Texas, is set to stand trial
in 2024 in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, facing 23
counts of committing a hate crime resulting in death, and 23 counts of using a
firearm to commit murder, among other charges. Crusius pleaded not guilty in
2020 to 90 federal hate crime charges in the case. Proceedings were delayed
while prosecutors decided whether to pursue the death penalty against him. In
2020, his lawyers argued that Crusius, then 21, had been diagnosed with severe,
lifelong neurological and mental disabilities and should not face execution if
convicted.

Miami, FL: Armed Robbery Suspect Arrested After Video Shows Gas Station Clerk
Stabbed Repeatedly over a can of Beer
A
man is facing attempted murder and other charges after he was caught on camera
stabbing a clerk at a Miami gas station over a can of beer, authorities said.
Billy Joe Martin, 39, was arrested Monday on several charges including attempted
murder, armed robbery and battery on a law enforcement officer, Miami-Dade jail
records showed. According to an arrest report, Martin went into the gas station
located in the 500 block of Northwest 79th Street around 1 p.m. Monday and took
a drink out of a fridge and put it inside his pocket.
The clerk, who was not identified, confronted Martin over the item, asking him
"what did you put in your pocket?" the report said. Martin then became
aggressive and entered the glass partitioned area where the clerk was located
and started punching and then stabbing the clerk with a knife in the clerk's
back and face, the report said. Surveillance video from inside the store showed
the brutal knife attack and the clerk trying to fight off the suspect, who
grabbed a pack of cigarettes. The clerk was able to lock the door to keep Martin
in the store until officers arrived, the report said.
Martin was tased by officers and later taken into custody. The knife used in the
attack was found in Martin's pocket, the report said. The clerk suffered
multiple stab wounds to his torso and face and was transported to Jackson
Memorial Hospital, where he was in stable condition and expected to survive.
After he was taken into custody and placed in the back of a police car, Martin
started hitting his head against the plexiglass partition, the report said. He
later spat at an officer and began yelling racial and ethnic slurs at him.

Columbia, SC: Military Vet Bashes Knife-Wielding Suspect In Head During Attack
at South Carolina Walmart
A
U.S. military veteran heroically took down a knife-wielding attacker inside a
Walmart store earlier this month by bashing him in the head with a metal
stanchion. The incident occurred at the Walmart store on Two Notch Road at
approximately 2 p.m. on Jan. 4, WIS reported. According to the Richland County
Sheriff’s Department (RCSD), witnesses later told investigators they saw a man
waving a knife around in the self-checkout area of the store, threatening
shoppers and employees. Demario Davis, a U.S. military veteran, said he was
shopping with his son when the mayhem erupted, FOX News reported. “I was at the
checkout when my son noticed the guy walk in with the knife open,” Davis
recalled. “He then proceeded to the service desk waving the knife at a few
female employees.” As the workers took off running, Davis said he turned to a
female employee and asked her where the store’s security officers were. “She
states she was security,” he told FOX News. Davis said he made his way over to
where the armed man was located and saw him “terrorizing other customers and
employees” while waving the knife around. The military veteran then raised the
stanchion over his head and bashed the armed man in the head from behind,
dropping him to the ground. Another man swooped in and snatched the suspect’s
knife away as other witnesses swarmed in around him, the video showed.

Interesting how the social dynamics of a small industry mirror, somewhat, the
same social dynamics of a family, with the holidays and conferences almost being
one in the same, where we're excited to visit with old friends and colleagues,
yet cautious about the battle lines business and careers at times necessitate or
cause. At the end of the day, it's all about doing what's right for the
industry, adding value, helping people, and continuing to help evolve the
industry. And while each executive has their individual agendas, it's important
to remember that we are all part of one industry and we all share one goal - to
