Sonoma man arrested after police say they found him with meth, guns
Police officials in Santa Rosa and Petaluma arrested a Sonoma man Wednesday on suspicion of possession of methamphetamine and firearms, authorities said. Police identified the suspect as Kelly James Roach, 59, who is a convicted felon and prohibited from possessing firearms, officials said. On the 5300 block of Old Redwood Highway in Petaluma, detectives initiated a traffic stop on Roach, searched his vehicle and discovered a loaded 1911 Colt .45 in a Crown Royal bag on the floorboard, police said. About 2½ ounces of suspected methamphetamine was found under Roach's seat cover, authorities said. Roach was booked into the Sonoma County Jail. Detectives also executed search warrants at two storage units on the 6000 block of Commerce Drive in Rohnert Park on Wednesday, according to a Facebook post by the Santa Rosa police. There, they located a stockpile of handguns, rifles, rounds of ammunition and firearm parts. It was not clear if the storage units belonged to Roach. Santa Rosa police did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Police issue appeal five years after double murder at lockdown party
Murder squad detectives have made a fresh appeal for information on the fifth anniversary of a double killing at a lockdown party. Cheriff Tall, 21, and father of three Abayomi 'Junior' Ajose, 36, were shot dead at a 'spontaneous' party attended by 400 people in Moss Side, Manchester, in the early hours of June 21 2020. The event, with a DJ and PA system, took place in a car park in the middle of a block of flats hours after a Black Lives Matter protest. Detectives are appealing for information if witnesses know or saw someone there who was wearing a black Icon cap with a white logo and a white Nike Air T-shirt with a small black logo over the left side of the chest. A £50,000 reward remains available for key information that leads to the discovery and conviction of the killer, who police believe is from Birmingham. Detective Chief Inspector Neil Higginson, from Greater Manchester Police's (GMP) Major Incident Team, said: 'This year marks five years since Cheriff and Junior went out to a party but sadly never returned home to their loved ones. Their families have been left devastated by their loss, and they deserve justice. 'We will never be able to bring back their beloved Cheriff and Junior, but we can see that their killer is brought to justice. We need members of the community to get in touch and help us with some key information. 'There were hundreds of people in the car park that night and we are sure that there are people who saw the incident, even if it was just part of it. 'However, there has been a reluctance for witnesses to come forward with information. 'I understand that people might be scared, and that is normal given what has happened, but there is a range of measures that we can put in place to keep witnesses safe. 'Evidence can be given on video or behind a screen. It could also be that we could apply to the courts for the witness to be anonymous if there are grounds to do so. 'I'd just ask for you to come forward and we can have an honest chat about what we can do, as you don't have to commit to giving a statement in the first instance. 'The person responsible for these murders we believe is from Birmingham. He is not a member of the local Moss Side community, and he should not be protected. 'Anyone who comes forward in this case is not a 'grass' for helping the police, they are simply doing what is right for two families who have had their loved ones taken from them in awful circumstances. No one deserves that. 'When we have worked together in the past, we have achieved great results and if we work together again, we can get justice for Cheriff and Junior. It's not too late to do the right thing.' Anyone with information, however small or insignificant, should contact GMP in confidence on 0161 856 2035, quoting incident number 221 of 21/06/20. Alternatively, reports can be made in confidence to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

Doctor posted couple's decapitated baby online, suit says. GA jury awards $2.25M
A 12-person jury awarded $2.25 million to the parents of a newborn who was decapitated at birth, ruling against an Atlanta-area doctor they hired for an autopsy, according to their attorneys. Jessica Ross and Treveon Isaiah Taylor paid Dr. Jackson Gates $2,500 for a postmortem exam of their son, 'Baby Isaiah,' after he died July 9, 2023, according to civil court filings previously reviewed by McClatchy News. Nearly two months later, they sued Gates, saying he took videos of their newborn's body without permission and shared the graphic content online to his Instagram account. The couple horrifically lost Baby Isaiah when the newborn was decapitated by another doctor at Southern Regional Medical Center in Clayton County, according to a separate lawsuit they filed against Ross' obstetrician. The doctor, Tracey St. Julian, was accused of applying too much force on the baby's head and neck during the delivery, resulting in decapitation. Ross and Taylor were heartbroken, then were outraged upon learning Gates shared autopsy videos online of their baby, according to a complaint they filed in Fulton County Court. The case went to trial this week, according to the couple's attorneys, Shofaetiyah Watson of The Edmond Firm and Cory J. Lynch of The Law Firm of Cory J. Lynch, LLC. On the third day of trial, June 18, the jury awarded $2 million in compensatory damages to Ross and Taylor, as well as $250,000, the highest amount possible, in punitive damages, their legal counsel said in a news release. 'While we are pleased that a jury punished Dr. Jackson Gates for his reprehensible behavior, nothing can ease the pain that the parents, Jessica Ross and Treveon Isaiah Taylor, Sr., have experienced in losing their baby boy in such a horrific way,' Watson and Lynch said in a joint statement. 'This young couple trusted him with the remains of their precious baby,' they added. 'Gates, in turn, repaid this trust by posting horrific images of their child for the world to see.' Gates did not immediately return McClatchy News' request for comment June 20. The pathologist and primary care doctor has a practice in Conyers, about a 25-mile drive southeast from Atlanta. With their lawsuit, Taylor and Ross accused Gates of invasion of privacy, intentional infliction of emotional distress and fraud, their attorneys said. When they initially sued him, Gates defended himself in a video he shared to Instagram, saying anything he posted online was for educational purposes, WAGA-TV reported in September 2023. Gates was accused of uploading footage of the baby's autopsy a second time, after taking the videos down in response to a cease-and-desist letter sent to him on the couple's behalf, according to their attorneys. 'Gates initially removed the videos but inexplicably reposted them, even after being informed of the parents' emotional pain resulting from the initial posts,' the release said. Death ruled a homicide In February 2024, the Clayton County Medical Examiner's Office announced the baby's death was ruled a homicide, McClatchy News reported. At the time, the medical examiner's office's director, Brian Byars, told McClatchy News in a phone interview that the baby's head was 'completely separated from the body.' During delivery, the newborn's head became stuck in the vaginal canal in a complicated medical event known as shoulder dystocia, according to Taylor and Ross' lawsuit against St. Julian and Southern Regional Medical Center. That case is ongoing, their legal counsel said. Southern Regional Medical Center denied the accusations involving the facility in a September 2023 statement previously shared with McClatchy News. When the parents sued the hospital and St. Julian, the couple said both parties tried to hide the fact that their baby was decapitated, discouraged them from having an autopsy performed and encouraged them to cremate their son's body. As for the case against Gates, the couple's attorneys said their 'goal was to ensure that Gates was held accountable for his unconscionable lack of empathy and invasion of our clients' privacy.' 'We thank the jury for helping us accomplish that objective,' they added.
