86 FELONY CONVICTIONS. THREE WOMEN DRUGGED AND RAPED. AND NOW HE’S FREE. Andrew Luster, the Max Factor heir who drugged and raped unconscious women and videotaped his crimes, was originally sentenced to 124 years in prison. His sentence was later reduced to 50 years. Now he’s walking free after serving less than half of that sentence. How did this happen? Because California classified his crimes as “nonviolent” felonies, allowing him to benefit from expanded prison credits under Proposition 57. Luster was released based on California’s sentence-credit laws. After years of failed legislative efforts, California finally changed the law in 2024 to recognize certain drug-facilitated rapes as violent felonies. But the law came too late for Luster’s victims. It did nothing to change his convictions or prevent his release. Think about that. A serial rapist convicted of 86 felonies is free, despite a 50-year sentence and repeated opposition to his release. Tell his victims that justice was served. California’s laws should recognize the devastating violence inflicted on sexual assault victims—not create opportunities for their attackers to leave prison years before their court-imposed sentences expire. ktla.com/news/california/out…

PHILADELPHIA POLICE RELEASE OFFICIAL DETAILS OF DEADLY SHOOTING THAT KILLED OFFICER SHANE SEIBER; SUSPECT IDENTIFIED The Philadelphia Police Department has released an official statement detailing the events surrounding the fatal shooting of Officer Shane Seiber and the wounding of his partner in West Philadelphia early Saturday morning. According to police, the incident began at approximately 12:17 a.m. on October 10, 2026, when two officers assigned to the 19th District responded to a report of a person with a gun at 140 North 52nd Street. While investigating, the officers encountered a man on the porch of the property. Police say a struggle ensued, during which both officers were shot. Responding officers arrived to find both officers unresponsive on the porch. Fellow officers immediately transported them to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center for emergency treatment. Tragically, Officer Shane Seiber, 40, was pronounced dead at 9:04 a.m. as a result of his injuries. Seiber joined the Philadelphia Police Department in September 2016 and had served in the 19th District since January 2018. He leaves behind his wife and two young children. His partner, a 33-year-old officer, has served with the department for nine years and has been assigned to the 19th District since December 2018. He was shot 12 times and was last reported in stable condition. Police confirmed that additional gunfire occurred following the initial encounter, prompting authorities to declare a barricade situation. SWAT personnel responded and ultimately took Eric Lewis, 35, into custody. Lewis was transported to a hospital for evaluation before being taken to the Homicide Unit for further investigation. Authorities say Lewis faces charges of murder, attempted murder, and numerous related offenses. The Philadelphia Police Department confirmed that its Homicide Unit is continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the shooting. Officer Seiber dedicated a decade of his life to serving and protecting the people of Philadelphia. His death leaves behind a grieving family, fellow officers, and an entire community mourning his loss. Our thoughts remain with Officer Seiber’s family and his wounded partner as he continues his recovery. The information released by police is preliminary and subject to change as the investigation continues. Lewis is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
