What do two men, which have been missing for over a decade in Florida, have in common?
The answer is one potentially lethal cop.
Terrance Williams has been missing from Collier County (Naples) since 2004. Felipe Santos since 2003. Both men went missing after an unfortunate encounter with a former Collier County Sheriff’s deputy, Steve Calkins.
Felipe Santos went missing in October of 2003. According to records, Santos was driving to work when he was involved in a minor accident. Deputy Calkins was assigned to work the accident and promptly arrested Santos for driving without a license and for not having insurance. Witnesses saw Deputy Calkins arrest Santos, placing him in the back of the patrol car, and then driving away.
Later that day, Santos’ boss contacted the jail to bail him out. However, official records showed that Santos had never been arrested or booked into jail. When questioned about the missing person, Deputy Calkins said that he ‘changed his mind about arresting Santos’ and ‘decided to drop him off at a nearby convenient store’. The Sheriff’s department investigated the incident, but in true police fashion, Deputy Calkins was cleared of any potential wrong doing.
Nobody knows for sure what happened that day, other than Santos and Deputy Calkins. Rumors began to circulate as people began questioning what could have happened. . Many people speculate that the Sheriff’s Deputy killed Santos and disposed of his body somewhere. But as time went on, memories of Santos’ disappearance quickly faded away – Until another man went missing after having contact with Deputy Calkins.
Terrance Williams went missing in January of 2004 – only 3 months after the mysterious disappearance of Santos.
After not hearing from Williams for a few days, his family filed a missing person’s report with the sheriff’s department. After filing the report, the family was able to determine that William’s vehicle, a Cadillac, was towed at the request of Deputy Steve Calkins. However, no incident report was filed by Deputy – nothing was ever mentioned about towing the vehicle, any arrest, or any contact with Williams for that matter.
Williams’ vehicle had been towed from a nearby cemetery because it was obstructing traffic. Williams’ mother, Marcia, contacted the cemetery’s employees and found out they had witnessed her son’s encounter with Deputy Calkins.
Deputy Calkins was caught lying about the incident.
Below is a partial transcript with Deputy Calkins and Dispatch:
Dispatcher: I hate to bother you on your day off but this woman’s been calling us all day. You towed a car … Monday, a Cadillac, do you remember it?
Calkins: Uhh, no.
Dispatcher: Do you remember? She said it was near the cemetery.
Calkins: Cemetery?
Dispatcher: And the people at the cemetery are telling her you put somebody in the back of your vehicle and arrested them and I don’t show you arresting anybody.
Calkins: I never arrested nobody.
Deputy Calkins, a 17-year veteran of the Sheriff’s department, was fired. He appealed this termination, but his dismissal was upheld. He has not been charged in the disappearances of Williams or Santos. And though he claims he is innocent in both cases, it’s worth noting that at least one polygraph test showed that he was being deceptive.
During one polygraph test, the examiner asked: “After you dropped Terrance at the Circle K, did you have any further contact with him?” Calkins said no. According to the lie detector test, he failed that question.
Other examples of the Deputy lying concerns his conversation with dispatch. He told dispatcher Jolicoeur he was investigating an abandoned car (“signal 11”), even though his later statement indicates Williams was driving it when he stopped him. Calkins later called another dispatcher, gave Williams’ date of birth, and asked for a background check. Calkins said he was alone. But investigators came to strongly doubt his story, because where would he have gotten the date of birth? Not from the car, because it had no registration. Not from Williams, because he wasn’t by the car anymore. Even more troubling, the date of birth that Calkins gave was not Williams’ real birth date, but a false one Williams previously gave out when in trouble.
“I might have been a little sloppy, I might have been a little lazy, and for that I’m truly sorry,” Calkins told investigators in a sworn statement on March 30, 2004, that was among his last acts as a Collier County deputy. “But I honestly believe that I have not lied about anything.” /source/

Woman Publicly Sodomized in Gas Station Parking Lot by Cops Because they ‘Smelled Weed’
Charnesia Corley was on her way to the store to get medicine for her sick mother last June when she was detained by police for allegedly running a stop sign. Within minutes, this routine traffic stop turned into a waking nightmare.
The deputy who pulled Corley over asked her to step out of the vehicle after “smelling what he believed to be marijuana.”
However, during a search of Corley’s vehicle, without her consent, no illegal plants were found. But this sadistic cop wasn’t done just yet. He knew deep down that this woman’s story about getting medicine for her mother was a lie, and she must have been smuggling this evil plant inside her body somewhere. The deputy then handcuffed Corley and placed her into the back of his cruiser.
Being a male, the deputy felt that it would be in poor taste to penetrate this woman’s bodily orifices himself, so he called a female deputy over to conduct the public roadside sodomy in a politically correct fashion.
Upon arriving, the female deputy ordered the handcuffed woman out of the car and into the parking lot.
“She tells me to pull my pants down. I said, ‘Ma’am, I don’t have any underwear on.’ She says, ‘Well, that doesn’t matter. Pull your pants down,‘”
Because Corley didn’t immediately prostrate herself to be vaginally raped by a peace officer’s appendages in search of an illegal plant, the deputy charged her with resisting arrest.
In spite of her verbal protests, Corley was then stripped down in public and forcefully penetrated by this public servant — in the best interests of society, no doubt.
“I bend over and she proceeds to try to force her hand inside of me. I tell her, ‘Ma’am, No. You cannot do this,‘” Corley explained.
Corley maintains that at no time did she ever consent to be sodomized by deputies.
Who is “served” by the actions of these officers? Who exactly are the police “protecting” by publicly humiliating and sexually assaulting this poor woman in a gas station parking lot?
Please share this article with your friends and family to help wake them up to this very real American Horror Story.
Think this is an isolated incident? Think again. Earlier this year we reported on the story of Jennifer Stelly, who is just a few miles down the road from Charnesia Corley. When Stelly and her boyfriend were returning from a visit to the beach, they were stopped by four officers who claimed that her boyfriend “smelled like weed.”
Within minutes, Stelly was in handcuffs and found herself thrown up against the police cruiser with cop fingers inside her body. The evil and rapacious actions of these Texas cops were caught entirely on their dashcam. /source/
I guess we all DO want to protect this girl and our relatives from such a blatant injustice. We can’t ignore the fact that police abuse their power, The freedom of a human being bordered by the freedom of the other human. But here we see the violation of the rights of American citizen, here we see the violence and brutality by the cops. That’s the real threat. Cops on duty did something we cannot accept, we gotta make this story public! This is the only way to demand #justice. We the people have the right to protect ourselves from police, cause THEY do extremely opposite to “serving & protecting” things.
A federal lawsuit out of Kentucky has placed law enforcement in the
spotlight once again, raising concerns about overzealous disciplinary
policies carried out against special-needs students when they commit
minor infractions.
That is a hellishly uncomfortable position to be in - even if you’re hyper-mobile. This is fucking abuse.
NEW VIDEO RELEASED OF MENTALLY ILL MAN TASED TO DEATH IN POLICE CUSTODY FOR “SAGGING PANTS”
On November 26, 2013, 38 year old Ervin Edwards,partially deaf and mentally ill, was arrested by police for sagging his pantsand taken to the West Baton Rouge Parish jail in Louisiana. He only lived for a few more minutes inside of the cell.
For 18 months, police have lied over and over again about what happened the night Ervin Edwards died in their custody. Now thata video of their despicable actions has been released, ( Warning very tough to watch ) it’s clear they murdered this man and left him to die all alone in his jail cell.
Here are the 5 things you need to know:
The Video Shows an Officer Held a Taser on Him for 1 Minute, Contradicting Earlier Claims
Edwards Was Left Alone & Unresponsive in the Cell for 10 Minutes Before He Was Given Medical Aid
An Internal Review Found No criminal wrongdoing by the Officers
His Girlfriend Told Officers He Had Health Issues That Could Make the Use of a Taser Fatal
A Corrections Expert Said the Video is ‘One of the Worst Things I’ve Seen’
New Yorker Tyeesha Mobley was at a gas station near her Bronx apartment with her two sons when she caught the older boy, aged nine, stealing $10 out of her purse. Thinking this was a good opportunity to teach him a lesson about honesty and consequences, she called the police, asking them to help her communicate the seriousness of stealing.
When the police arrived, however, Mobley’s Arrested Development-style lesson quickly escalated into a terrifying situation. Three of the four officers who arrived at the gas station apparently understood that this was a lighthearted call.
“They started asking Tyleke what did he take,” said Mobley. “He told them. And about three officers was joking around with him, telling him, ‘You can’t be stealing, you’ll wind up going in the police car.’”
The fourth cop, however, had different ideas. He began yelling: “You black b——es don’t know how to take care of your kids … why are you wasting our time, we aren’t here to raise your kid … why don’t you take your f—-ing kid and leave?”
When she tried to follow his order, Mobley says the fourth officer arrested her, refusing to give a reason. While she and her children cried for him to stop, one of the other officers attempted to intervene, saying, “We are not supposed to act like this.”
He replied, “Black b——es like that … this is how I treat them.”
After her arrest, Mobley was hospitalized for the bruises she’d sustained on her legs thanks to the fourth cop kicking her during the arrest. She successfully fought off child endangerment charges—a pretty interesting charge given that the “endangerment” in question seems to have been calling the police.
Mobley’s two children were placed in foster care for four months, where they reportedly received sub-par care. Now, having recovered her children—who have undoubtedly learned a very different lesson than the one she intended to teach—Mobley is suing the NYPD.
