Los Angeles, Calif. — Anger. Rage. Disappointment. Pain. Heartbreak. These were some of the emotions expressed by the family of Oscar Grant after the verdict was read at the criminal trial of Johannes Mehserle, the White Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) police officer charged with shooting and killing the Black man in the wee hours of New Year’s Day, 2009.
In less than a week the non-African-American jury came back with an involuntary manslaughter conviction of Mehserle for shooting the 22-year-old Grant in the back as he lay face down at a BART station in Oakland, Calif. Contempt for the verdict, which came down at the end of the day on July 8, came swiftly.
“It’s an injustice,” said Jack Bryson, whose son, Jack Bryson Jr., testified in the racially-tinged trial that received national media attention. “It was done to Sean Bell. It was done to Oscar Grant. There is no justice. This just gives them (law enforcement) a free pass to do whatever they want.”

New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner has died, Steinbrenner’s spokesman said.
“It is with profound sadness that the family of George M. Steinbrenner III announces his passing,” a statement from his family said. ““He was an incredible and charitable man. First and foremost he was devoted to his entire family – his beloved wife, Joan; his sisters, Susan Norpell and Judy Kamm, his children, Hank, Jennifer, Jessica and Hal; and all of his grandchildren.
“He was a visionary and a giant in the world of sports. He took a great but struggling franchise and turned it into a champion again.”
The team has seven World Series trophies – 1977, ’78, ’96, ’98, ’99, 2000 and ’09 earned under Steinbrenner’s ownership since 1973.
“Owning the Yankees,” Steinbrenner once said, “is like owning the Mona Lisa.”

Lebron James Mural Removed In Cleveland
Cleveland fans are really letting LeBron know that his decision to move to Miami has cost him his “Kingship.”
Less than a week after “King” James made his announcement to move down south, fans in his former city have shown how they really feel about the so-called betrayal by removing the mural of James that is featured in the now infamous Nike ads.
In the hours after James’ announcement, some angry fans hurled rocks at the 10-story sign that featured James with his arms outstretched after tossing powder into the air.

AP/LOS ANGELES — “Despicable Me” wasn’t such a bad guy after all, it seems, opening at the top of the box office with an estimated $60.1 million.
The first 3-D animated movie from Universal Pictures stars Steve Carell as the voice of Gru, a bumbling villain with plans to steal the moon — until three adorable orphan girls enter his life. Jason Segel, Russell Brand and Julie Andrews are among the star-studded voice cast.
Nikki Rocco, head of distribution for Universal, said Sunday that “Despicable Me” far exceeded the studio’s expectations for opening weekend.
“Thirty (million) would have been a win for the studio — because it’s a new creative idea, we really didn’t know what we had, so we backed in saying $30 (million),” said Rocco. “I would never have said $50 million-plus.”
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com.
1. “Despicable Me,” $60.1 million.
2. “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,” $33.35 million.
3. “Predators,” $25.3 million.
4. “Toy Story 3,” $22 million.
5. “The Last Airbender,” $17.15 million.
6. “Grown Ups,” $16.4 million.
7. “Knight and Day,” $7.85 million.
8. “The Karate Kid,” $5.7 million.
9. “The A-Team,” $1.8 million.
10. “Cyrus,” $1.4 million.
