Lone Star College Stabbing Suspect ID’d as Dylan Quick

The Lone Star College Cy-Fair stabbing suspect has been identified as  Dylan Quick. He reportedly stabbed 12 people, with two in critical condition. Two other people sustained minor injuries. Dylan Quick, 20, was tackled on campus and taken into custody.

Dylan Quick reportedly ran down the hall in the Health and Science Center randomly stabbing students. He reportedly used an X-acto knife to carry out this heinous act at the college located in the 9900 block of Barker Cypress in northwest Harris County.

Quick was well-known on campus because he often carried a sock monkey puppet. Michael Chalfan said Quick would ask the puppet questions, then answer them. Chalfan said other students made fun of Quick and said he looked like the comedian Carrot Top.

Just last week, Quick was featured in a student spotlight blog about how far he had come and “the battles he fought and won.”

The KHOU 11 News I-Team dug up the blog called, “I came, I saw, I conquered.”

The article about Quick, 20, said he was born deaf and received a cochlear implant at seven years old. The implant was visible as he was escorted into the Harris County Jail Tuesday afternoon. Source

Janet Strickland Allegedly Commissioned Grandson William Strickland to Kill His Grandfather

Jesus take the wheel: Janet Strickland, 64, was charged with first degree murder and armed robbery with a firearm after she allegedly commissioned her grandson, William D. Strickland, to murder his 72 year old grandfather, on his way to dialysis treatment on Mar. 2, the Chicago Tribune reports.

After the murder, the two used the money of her murdered husband, also named William Strickland, to purchase a car, home furnishings, tattoos, sneakers and other items, prosecutors said. Janet Strickland’s bail was set at $500,000, while her grandson is being held without bail.

Prosecutors alleged Janet Strickland and her grandson, also named William Strickland, discussed killing her husband on multiple occasions. Before the shooting, Janet Strickland told her grandson that she was “sick” of his grandfather and that she wanted him dead, prosecutors allege.

“She stated … that she wished he was not here and she wanted him gone,” Assistant State’s Attorney Jacqueline Kwilos said during the bond hearing. On the Thursday before the shooting, Strickland told her grandson that she wanted it done on the next Saturday, Kwilos said.

Initially the two had discussed having someone else kill him, but Strickland later told his grandmother he would do the shooting himself, Kwilos alleged. According to prosecutors, Strickland admitted that when she unlocked the door to let her husband leave for his dialysis appointment early in the morning of March 2 she knew he would be killed by her grandson.

Janet Strickland has a myriad of health problems herself, so it’s really reprehensible for her to have said she was tired of her husband’s issues. She is currently hospitalized for lung disease and low oxygen, police said.

De’Marquise Elkins Facing 1st Degree Murder in Death of 13 Month Old Baby

BRUNSWICK GA SHOOTING:  Sherry West’s 13 month old son, Baby Antonio, didn’t have to die. De’Marquise Elkins, 17, and his accomplice didn’t have to attempt to rob this woman, much less to shoot her and her son. Chief Tobe Green said he will be treated as an adult, as he should. I am appalled at the senseless gun violence we are witnessing all over this country. De’Marquise Elkins and his accomplice will face first degree murder for the baby’s death.

De’Marquise Elkins reportedly threatened to kill Baby Antonio when his mother refused to give him money. It takes a person lower than scum to kill a child. This isn’t the first time Sherry West has lost a child. She said her 18 year old son, Shaun Glassey, was killed in New Jersey in 2008. He was stabbed to death in March 2008 during an attack involving several teenagers in Gloucester County, NJ.

It is interesting to note that DeMarquise Elkins calls himself  ”DeMarquise Money-Ville Elkins” on his Facebook page. Yes, that would be other people’s money. You take a look at his Facebook page and you’ll understand exactly what kind of person accosted Sherry West and killed her baby.
