In The Mean Time...
Iberia, LA – Vanessa Edmond, 23, and her live-in boyfriend, 25-year-old Jamal Charles, have each been charged with three counts of second-degree cruelty to juveniles in connection with the death of Edmond’s 4-year-old daughter, Rayneisha Hudson.
When police and paramedics responded to the couple’s home last Thursday, they found an unresponsive Rayneisha laying on the floor. She was stiff and cold to the touch. Investigators said it appeared as if she had been severely burned from the waist down, the skin on her legs “fluffing off.”
Another of Vanessa’s children, a 3-year-old boy, was suffering from burns to his left foot and buttocks – he was transported to the hospital where medical personnel later determined that the injuries were recent and likely caused by hot water.
An older sibling, a 5-year-old girl, told detectives that Charles whipped Rayneisha with a hammer because she had soiled herself. The child also told detectives that Charles then “put her sister and brother in a hot tub.” The Acadiana Crime Lab later determined that the water out of the tap was 180 degrees.
Charles, of course, denies the allegations, telling police the children had been in their rooms watching television all night as he slept. Vanessa, however, told a different story.…

Baby Brain Dead After Being Thrown For Playing Near Electrical Socket
February 2, 2011 at 2:13 pm by Morbid
Tampa, FL – I’m thinking that 23-year-old Dwayne Poole didn’t think things through after he allegedly threw his 16-month-old son after he caught him playing near a wall socket.
I understand a parent reacting strongly to finding their kid about to stick their fingers into an electric wall socket, but Poole threw his baby so hard that when the infant hit his head on either the wall or a dresser, his skull was fractured causing a brain bleed.
The infant was also found to have bruises covering his legs and buttocks to which Poole admitted to police that he had caused by hitting him with an open hand and a belt.
Poole was arrested on a charge of aggravated child abuse to go along with his several previous arrests on battery charges.
His son is currently in the hospital where according to doctors, he appears to be brain dead with little chance of survival.…

Lincoln, Nebraska – Police are investigating an alleged sex assault that ended when the victim sent her attacker to the hospital after beating the crap out of his face with a frying pan.
Details are vague, but what is being reported is that a 20-year-old woman held a party at her apartment. After a night of drinking the woman fell asleep on the floor, only to be woken up by a 23-year-old man touching her inappropriately.
She told him to stop repeatedly, but the man persisted and became more aggressive. She ended up kicking him away from her and then smack him in the face four times with a frying pan she retrieved from the kitchen.
Police were called and the man was taken to the hospital suffering from fractures to an orbital bone and to his nose. Officer Katie Flood says citations are pending against the man once he is released from the hospital.…

February 2, 2011 at 11:29 am by Morbid
Brooklyn, NY – The Brooklyn nun who claimed she had been raped by a rather large black man is now admitting she made the entire thing up to hide a consensual sexual relationship she was having with a shop worker inside the convent.
Mary Turcotte’s original story was that on the night of Jan. 22, she was on her way to the Apostles of Infinite Love convent when she was accosted by a 250-pound, 6-foot-4 black man who choked her unconscious. She says when she woke up she was laying in a snow bank eight blocks away with her breasts exposed and her underwear down at her ankles (hot).
Police put out an alert for this black man described by Turcotte even though they were already growing suspicious over the fact that no one witnessed an unconscious nun being dragged eight blocks by a big black man.
The search was called off after the 26-year-old finally fessed up and admitted she made the entire thing up in an attempt to cover up an ongoing tryst she had been having with a bodega worker she’d been sneaking in the back door of the convent.
“Nothing happened, none of it,” a woman who answered the door at the convent told the News Tuesday.…

Trenton, MI — You all remember Jennifer Petkov, right? The mouthy bitch who gained “worldwide notoriety” after taunting a dying 7-year-old child? Yeah, her. She’s been ordered by the court to hit the road.
We first featured Jennifer back in October after she posted some doctored photos of Kathleen Edwards, a 7-year-old girl who is dying from Huntington’s Disease, on her Facebook page. The photos depicted the child’s face becoming the center of a skull and crossbones. Petkov also posted a picture of the girl’s mother, who died in 2009 of the same condition, in the arms of the grim reaper. Those distasteful and juvenile acts were carried out for one reason only – to torment the child’s grandmother, Rebecca Rose.
As mean spirited and awful as it is, it’s not actually against the law to taunt a dying kid. It is, however, against the law to try and turn your neighbor into roadkill. Neighbor Tana Boling says she said she was on her way across the street to talk with Rebecca Rose on Oct. 13 when Jennifer raced out of her driveway and nearly ran her over. Jennifer was promptly arrested and charged with assault and battery.
In court on Tuesday, Jennifer admitted that she tried to run Boling down before pleading guilty to the charges.…

February 2, 2011 at 5:11 am by Wanderer
Glenview, Illinois – On January 13th, 18-year-old Allen Giron was charged with felony criminal sexual assault after allegedly having sexual relations with a 13-year-old girl he met on Facebook.
Police found out what Giron was up to after they were notified by the victim’s sister, who told police that there were “at least two sexual encounters” with Giron and that the victim had recently been diagnosed by a doctor and found to have contracted herpes.
Giron provided detectives with “a written statement detailing the sexual encounters,” officials said. One of which took place in the women’s bathroom of a fast food restaurant.
Giron was released from the Skokie branch of Cook County Criminal Court yesterday after posting his $50,000 bond. He will be electronically monitored by an ankle bracelet and will be allowed to return to school.
“This is not the typical case where he lured girls to his home,” Giron’s attorney Steven Goldman argued before Cook County Circuit Judge Larry Axelrood. “They met on Facebook. This is going to be difficult enough for him but it will be worse with no high school degree.”
“That’s exactly what happened; He lured her to his home,” countered Assistant Cook County State’s Attorney Akuch Vyas.…

February 2, 2011 at 4:54 am by Jaded
Minneapolis, MN – 39-year-old Stacey Champion has been charged with animal cruelty after police and postal workers say she tried to air-mail a 4-month-old puppy to Atlanta in a sealed box.
Champion walked into a downtown Minneapolis post office last Tuesday and paid $22 to ship a box to Georgia. Before the transaction was finalized, she was asked the standard questions about the box’s contents: Anything perishable, liquid or hazardous? Champion reportedly answered no, but cautioned post office employees to be very careful while handling the package as the contents were very delicate. Oh, and if the contents made any noise, pay no mind…it was just a toy robot.
Employees grew suspicious when the box began moving and making panting noises. A call was made to the postal inspector and permission was given to open the box. Inside, without food or water, a 4-month-old schnauzer/poodle mix dubbed “Guess.” The schnoodle was panting hard when released from what could have been his cardboard coffin, and greedily sucked down the water given to him by post office employees. Had the humans not intervened, Guess most certainly would have been dead upon arrival in Georgia.

Officials Confirm Body Found In Canal Belongs To Juliani Cardenas
February 1, 2011 at 3:56 pm by Morbid
PATTERSON, Calif. — Stanislaus County Sheriff Adam Christensen said that they have retrieved a body from a California canal and that it is the body of 4-year-old Juliani Cardenas.
On January 18th, Cardenas was snatched from his grandmother’s arms by his mother’s ex-boyfriend, Jose Esteban Rodriguez.
Initial thoughts were that he had simply kidnapped to boy but that he had not harmed him. the boy’s mother was confident that Rodriguez would not hurt the boy even though he was physically abusive towards her.
Investigators began searching a canal a few days after the abduction after a farm-worker reported seeing a car matching the one Rodriguez was driving go into the water.
Searchers would retrieve many cars from the canal, but it wasn’t unit Friday night that divers in the canal located the vehicle belonging to Rodriguez. There was no sign of the him or Cardenas until today when a water authority employee found the body of a child at around 7:38 a.m.
I was pretty sure that this story was going to end exactly the way it has, but a small part of me was hoping that Rodriguez had faked a murder-suicide and in reality was holed up in a motel somewhere watching cartoons with Cardenas and feeding him McDonalds.…

UPPER DARBY, Pa. – Seven boys, ages 13 to 17, have been arrested for their part in an alleged bullying incident caught on tape.
Back on January 11th, a 13-year-old boy was walking home from Beverly Hills Middle School when the group of teens began assaulting him on videotape.
The video is only 7 minutes of an estimated 20 minute long attack that shows the attackers kicking the boy on the ground, dragging him through the snow as he screams and stuffing him in a tree. After he falls out, he tries to make a run for it but is caught again. The group continue to punch him before hanging on a metal fence by his jacket.
Police say this goes far past the line of “kids being kids” and straight into the realm of full-blown assault, and they are taking it very seriously. They have arrested all seven boys involved. Six of them were walked out in handcuffs from an alternative school program for troubled students on the grounds of Upper Darby High School.
“And we took out the six individuals in handcuffs, put them in wagons, made sure everyone knew what we were doing and that is we’re not tolerating bullying in any way, shape, or form,” Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said.…

HOUSTON, TX — Here’s a tragic “wrong place at the wrong time” story for you this morning regarding a jealous husband who found his wife in a restaurant parking lot with a popular high school soccer coach.
First I’ll give you the official report using info from published news articles. Then I’m going to do something I don’t normally do and fill in some details I found gleaning the comment sections from some of these published news articles.
As Ronald Lee Newman, 51, pulled into the parking lot of the LosTios restaurant on Friday night, he witnessed his wife walking with 33-year-old Christopher Matthews, the girls’ soccer coach and world history teacher at Stratford High School. Newman approached the pair and punched Matthews who fell and hit his head, knocking him unconscious.
Matthews was rushed to the hospital in critical condition while Newman would be arrested, charged with aggravated assault serious bodily injury and later released on $30,000 bail. Sadly, Matthews would never wake up and died late Sunday of a massive brain injury.
That’s the story in a nutshell. Of course anonymous people started posting in the comments of some of the articles I linked to above, making snide comments to the effect of “shouldn’t have been messing with another man’s life” and crap like that.…

February 1, 2011 at 7:52 am by Jaded
Louisville, KY – After an evening of imbibing at the Club 21, 50-year-old Marie Reeves decided it was a fine time to get herself tatted. At about 1:00 Tuesday morning, a drunken Reeves stumbled across the street to the Ink Style Tattoo Studio and demanded some ink.
The tattoo artist refused to work on the woman, claiming she was too intoxicated to give the necessary informed consent for the procedure, and told her to come back when she wasn’t shitfaced. This displeased Reeves. A lot.
Pissed, Reeves reportedly jumped into her vehicle, aimed for the parlor’s front entrance and hit the gas. The artist who denied her later told police that Reeves backed the vehicle up and attempted to hit him, but he was able to dive out of the way.
Her next stop was the Saint Stephens Cemetery. That’s where police say she mowed down seven gravestones and broke her ride. Her vehicle disabled, Reeves called for a taxi. She directed the cabbie to a local hotel where she said she was staying with a friend, and ultimately stiffed him. He, in turn, called the police.
Officers already knew who they were looking for…Reeves had left her driver’s license with the bartender earlier in the evening.…
