Calls For Release Of
Mumia Abu-Jamal:
'Free Mumia'
Colin Kaepernick
made calls for the Philadel- phia district attorney’s office to release Mumia Abu- Jamal, a former member of the Black Panthers who was convicted of killing a police officer in 1981, during a vir- tual news conference held by supporters on Monday.
The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback argued for Abu-Jamal’s case in a video statement, alleging that he was “framed” for the killing of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner.
“Mumia has been in prison longer than I've been alive,” Kaepernick said. “Since 1981, Mumia has maintained his innocence. His story has not changed.”
During a routine traffic stop almost 39 years ago, Of- ficer Faulkner stopped a ve- hicle belonging to Abu-Jamal's younger brother William Cook. The two got into a physical con- frontation and Abu-Jamal, who was in the vicinity and

observed the fight, ran over and shot Faulkner in the back and, later, in the face.
“Mumia was shot, bru- talized, arrested and chained to a hospital bed,” Kaeper- nick said before alleging that the police department tampered with the investiga- tion.
“We're in the midst of a movement that says Black Lives Matter, and if that's truly the case, then it means that Mumia’s life and legacy must matter,” he con- tinued. “And the causes that he sacrificed his life and free- dom for must matter as well.”
Has Chad ‘Ochocinco’ Johnson found the one?
The former NFL star opened up about his girl- friend, Sharelle Rosado, recently and said she’s cer- tainly different from the women he’s previously been with.
He explained how he knew she’s “the one.”
“I don’t even fall in temp- tation. When you’re truly happy with her, there’s no need...This is how you know she’s the one. I’m a gamer and the importance of gaming is something I put first in life, before any woman, some- times even before my kids be- cause it’s a way of revenue and it’s a way I pay my bills. If

this certain individual calls my phone in the middle of gaming and I’m willing to press pause, that’s how you know she’s the one.” John- son later said:
“I’m really not the one to really be giving advice. For one, I’m a late bloomer to it
anyway. You’ve been doing it for a while with the discipline. You’ve been doing it for a while. So I’m in the backend. I’m in the backend late in life, figuring out obviously who I am and who it is I actually need.”
He continued and made it clear he didn’t want to speak badly about any of his exes.
“I don’t want to say the wrong things to offend any- body from my past. Every- body was wonderful. I think what I have now, which I don’t think I’ve ever had be- fore, is someone to provide me with a little structure. Again, not to be offensive to anybody else, but the pendu- lum is even. It’s not lopsided.”
Ciara And Russell Wilson Launch A Unisex Fragrance

DeAndre Baker Signs With K.C. Chiefs After Armed Robbery
Case Dropped

Even while pregnant, Ciara and Russell Wilson hustled during the coron- avirus pandemic. The power couple used their extra time together to create not one but two fragrances.
The husband and wife pair just launched the R&C The Fragrance Duo: two eau de parfums inspired by their love for one another and the idea that sticking together is the key to happiness.
"We created this fragrance during one of, if not, the toughest times in life, not only for us but the world," Ciara told a group of beauty editors during a Zoom call ahead of the fragrance's launch. "It brought us some joy in the midst of it all.
The singer says that she and Wilson turned fragrance testing into at-home date nights, and being pregnant with her third child, Win Harrison, who was born in July, helped refine her nose during the testing stage.
The perfume is in an inter- locked chrome bottle. R is de- scribed as a scent that's "effortlessly sexy with an iconic, refined freshness." It contains bergamot notes, black tea, middle notes of lavender, pear, and waterlily, and base notes of patchouli, musk, and vetiver. C, Ciara's scent, has notes of red berries, freesia, pink peppercorn, mid- dle notes of jasmine, peony, and gardenia, and base notes of musk, sandalwood vanilla.
DeAndre Baker has found a new football home after his armed robbery case was dropped ... he's reportedly signed with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The cornerback -- who was cut from the NY Giants after he was hit with multiple felony charges stemming from his al- leged role in a May 13 incident -- will visit K.C. this week and is set to ink a deal to join the team shortly after.
Baker is expected to begin his career as a Chief on the team's practice squad.
It's huge news for the 23- year-old former 2019 1st- round pick because just a few days ago, he was staring down life in prison.
Baker was accused of pulling out a semi-automatic firearm at a cookout in Mira- mar, FL. and ordering party- goers to give him their cash, watches and other valuables.
Baker was arrested and ultimately hit with multiple counts of robbery with a firearm.
