Oklahoma City police found Danny Ellerd too sick to jail. He left OSU-OKC with a 4.0 and two degrees. What carried him was a ministry, private foundations and an $850,000 federal earmark, not the state fund voters created for people like him.
ICE signed a $220 million contract for Tasers at $12,359 per unit. The President bought Axon stock two weeks before it was announced. The same investors funded both Flock and the company replacing it.
Axon paid $625 million for Carbyne — an Israeli-founded 911 platform built by former special forces and intelligence operatives, funded through a vehicle that included Jeffrey Epstein. It now runs inside 911 systems across 23 states. Development remains in Tel Aviv.

He wants foreign governments out of Oklahoma. Two weeks after his June check cleared, the company he pays registered as a paid agent of a Mexican state government. Mazzei has now sent this company $82,500.
