I have recently made a sad and surprising discovery and that the amount of homeless and needy people in Volusia County. Did you know that its estimated that there are more than 1,000 children, and over 3,000 adults homeless just in our little county of Volusia?

When there are so many people with no place to go, where do you go? How can you raise a family on the side of the road, or behind a business? I have a huge heart for the homeless. I feel very badly for them and will do anything I can just to lend a helping hand.

And more emotions are on the way as the same 12 jurors who pronounced him guilty of captal murder Monday will have a say in his punishment next week: Rot in prison for the rest of his life or spend years on Death Row awaiting a death sentence by way of lethal injection.

Killer Russell Bradshaw lucky to have attorney Gayle Graziano

In the spectacular events concerning the crime and trial of Edgewater resident Russell Bradshaw, many onlookers may have missed the extreme skill with which Lawyer Gayle Graziano conducted the defense of the defendant, who was in a virtual hopeless “slam dunk” situation of getting convicted of first-degree murder. Maybe now the former circuit judge can work bigger miracles and save his sorry hide from being put on Death Row.
