Tampa, FL – What the hell is it with all the fire here on the Dreamin’ Demon lately? It seems like Morbid just posted a story about a cowardly asshole setting fire to his significant other and here we are with yet another one. Demonites, meet Christopher Hanney. Authorities report that on NovemberNovember reviews 17, after the two argued, Hanney allegedly attacked his estranged wife, Audrey Mabrey – first clubbing her in the head with a hammer before dousing her with lighter fluid and lighting a match. WitnessesWitnesses reviews report seeing Audrey run from her home, engulfed in flames, to the safety of a neighbor’s house. Audrey, a 26-year-old mother of two very young children, is now hospitalized in critical condition with burns to over 80% of her body. When police arrived on scene, Hanney, 44, was found in the backyard, suffering from burn wounds as well. He was released from the hospital the following day and taken into custody. Hanney, a former New York police officer, is being held without bail on charges of attempted murder in the first-degree.  [Read more...]

Arlington, Washington - On Monday Keira Earhart,38, pulled into his driveway to witness someone running from his house. He went inside to find his wife’s jewelry missing and called 911. Police arrived but after a search, were unable to find the burglar. A second 911 call was made a few hours later, Earhart telling police that the burglar was back in the area and that he had ran into a field near his house. Police arrived a second time, finding Earhart in the field, but once again they were not able to find the burglar. On Wednesday morning a neighbor called police saying he had found the body of a man in a creek near Monday’s burglary. The body was of a 25-year-old who had been shot to death. After a little investigating, police learn neighbors heard shots on Monday, before the second 911 call was placed. One reported Earhart told them he had taken “warning shots” at the burglar. Earhart was booked into jail facing second-degree murder charges. The dead man did have the stolen property in his possession.  Not sure if the Castle Doctrine applies in Washington, but even if it did I am pretty sure it doesn’t cover shooting a fleeing burglar in a field near your house three hours after the crime was committed.

SORRENTO, Florida - After having lawn-mowing equipment stolen before, Shane Biel installed an alarm on the locked trailer he uses to house machinery for his lawncare business. But around 3:30 a.m. Thursday morning, the alarm went off from someone breaking in for another go. The homeowner went outside, armed with a firearm and confronted 23-year-old Brett Lee Canada who had used a pair of bolt-cutters on the lock Biel had installed. Biel says Canada lunged at him so fearing for his life, he opened fire, killing him. Police say Canada has a history of this type of crime. No charges are expected to be filed against the homeowner. Detectives believe the man’s story and under the Castle Doctrine, a Florida resident can defend themselves and their family in their home with deadly force. You ever been in an argument and have someone come in to help, but turns out they are an idiot? Yeah, read the comments made by Biel’s neighbors. It includes this gem: “Hey, the guy entered. That’s what we move to AmericaAmerica reviews for. We protect our stuff” [Read more...]

Anchorage, AK – Ugh. I don’t even know where to start with this one. We have a couple of fucktards – Jonathan Miller and Stephen Dilley II, a 5-year-old boy left in their care, and a “redneck flamethrower.” Taking that into consideration, you just know this won’t end well. Last Friday, the boy’s mother left him in the care of Miller and Dilley for the weekend. Miller is the woman’s current boyfriend – Dilley is the woman’s ex-boyfriend and father to one of her five children – and though the woman has a restraining order against him, Dilley lives in a trailer on the property and helps her with her brood. According to the arrest affidavit, Miller told officers that he’s been trying to “toughen the boy up” and the best way to do that is to “scare the shit out of them when they don’t see it coming.” Last Friday evening, Dilley grabbed a can of starter fluid and an lighter and asked Miller, “You know what would be funny?” Miller must have been thinking along the same lines because he responded, “You know how much trouble I could get in for this?” Then he called for the child. When the little boy opened the door, Miller let him have it.  [Read more...]

Muncie, IN - Amber Foster, her ex-boyfriend, and a few friends were enjoying a rousing game of Strip Yahtzee (Yahtzee? For real?) last week when Amber found herself in a spot of trouble. I guess the dice just weren’t rolling her way, because Amber ended up butt nekkid. WitnessesWitnesses reviews recall seeing Amber rise from the table and walk into a bedroom with her ex-boyfriend after she lost her clothing. Eventually, Amber’s current boyfriend found out that she had been untrue and confronted her. She cried rape. She told her boyfriend and the authorities that her ex-boyfriend had sexually assaulted her that evening. For five days authorities worked on the case – and I’m sure that during that time span, the ex-boyfriend was sweating and worrying about his future cell mate and the continued integrity of his bung hole. Authorities finally determined that Amber was a big fat liar – the ex-boyfriend was let off the hook and Amber was arrested. The 21-year-old woman now faces a charge of false informing, a misdemeanor that carries a max of 1 year behind bars. Personally, I think she should face the same damn time behind bars her ex-boyfriend would have faced had he been convicted of the crime. That’d teach a bitch not to cheat on her old man and scream rape. And how is it this woman has two living breathing human beings that want to tap that anyway? *shudder* Anyway, what say you, Demonites? Slap her little wrist and write it off as low self-esteem or should she face a harsher penalty? [Read more...]

WINTER GARDEN, Florida – One lucky family, I think. 48-year-old Rubens Morais and 27-year-old Marcela Borges were home with their 5-year-old son on SundaySunday reviews when four masked intruders took them hostage. They were all tied up and blindfolded and taken to Apopka. The next day, Borges was forced to withdraw $23,600 from the bank. They were then taken back to their home. Sometime Tuesday, Borges removed her bindings as well as the mask of one of her young, female captors. Not liking that, she reportedly stated “She saw my face and knows who I am. You have to kill her!” Borges, not liking that, jumped from a second-story window. As she ran to a neighbor’s house, one of the captors opened fire on her, hitting her in the side. All four captors then fled the scene. Victor Manuel Sanchez, 20, and Miguel Diaz-Santiz, 25, and Oscar Diaz-Hernandez, 19 have been arrested. The female suspect is still at large. [Read more...]

Marion, IA - Allow me to introduce Kristine Pflughaupt (gesundheit). Ms. Phisoderm Pflughaupt is gracing the pages here at the Dreamin’ Demon for a number of reasons – that awesome last name, her cheerful mugshot, drunken hyjinx, and because she’s a big fan of noodles.  It has been reported that on NovemberNovember reviews 3, a resident on Ms. Farfegnugen Pflughaupt’s mail route called police to complain that she had a strange mail carrier, in uniform and carrying a mail bag, sitting on the floor in her kitchen noshin’ on some left-over noodles. The homeowner, 95-year-old Marie O’Kelly, said she was watching TV in her living room when she heard a noise – she assumed it was her daughter coming for a visit, but grew suspicious when she didn’t receive a greeting from the girl. When she went to investigate the strange noise, she found Ms. Flobbernotten Pflughaupt sitting on the kitchen floor, eating noodles with her bare hands. “The noodles were running down her shirt. I asked her, ‘What are you doing here?’ She didn’t answer – she just kept eating those noodles.” Yum.  [Read more...]

Dunnellon, FL – She took him in four years ago so he wouldn’t have to face the hell that is the foster care system. She loved him, cared for him, put a roof over his head, and fed him. Now, 66-year-old Doris Babcock is dead – the young boy she took under her wing, 19-year-old Zachary Snyder, stands accused of murdering her. Damn. I think a nice ‘Thank You’ card would have been sufficient. Doris’s husband, a long-distance truck driver, called police on SaturdaySaturday reviews and requested a well-being check on his wife when he was unable to get in contact with her. When authorities arrived at the home, they came in contact with Zachary – who, the husband told them, was not supposed to be there. The couple had asked him to leave the home a few weeks earlier after they discovered he had been stealing from them. Zachary, who appeared to have cuts on his hands and Doris’s debit and credit cards in his pockets, told officers that Doris wasn’t home. At that point, Zachary was arrested and charged with theft and probation violation. They later discovered the gruesome truth about Doris’s whereabouts. [Read more...]

Owasso, OK - Police were called to the home of Garold and Sherry McMillian over the weekend after neighbors reported seeing the couple’s two adopted teens standing outside in the cold, wet, drizzle. When the children were found at 11:00 SaturdaySaturday reviews evening,  temps were reported to be in the low 50’s – a 14-year-old girl was found shivering and shoeless, her 15-year-old brother was trying to keep warm and dry in an open air fort in the backyard. Police learned the children were asked to leave the home at about 4:00 that afternoon, when their asstastic parents took their two bio-children out for dinner and a movie. The house was locked up tight and the teen girl told officers that this was a regular occurrence. Officers noted the couple’s pet had access to food, water, and a warm environment, but their non-bio kids were left to soak and starve in the rain for 5-6 hours. Nice. [Read more...]

WitnessesWitnesses reviews say Pinkney Sr. then calmly walked to his vehicle and drove off. The teen died from his injuries later that afternoon – authorities took Pinkney Sr. into custody a few hours after the execution.

ST. CHARLES, Illinois – We have seen our fair share of adults getting ridiculously involved in their kid’s business here at D’D, but here is another example of it going into psychotic territory. 33-year-old  Timera Branch was pissed off at 17-year-old John Keyes because of an altercation he got into with her son at a dance SaturdaySaturday reviews night. Her son was mad about his girlfriend dancing with Keyes. This led to Branch’s son getting punched in the face. The next day Keyes was in the driveway of some apartments when Timera Branch drove her car over a curb, rammed Keyes and killed him by crushing him against a building. She was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and is being held on $1 million bond. Stories like this make me wonder if at any point do the parents ever think to themselves “this is not a good idea.” [Read more...]

South Daytona, FL - I meant to get this story up yesterday, but my computer is suffering from a severe case of constipation. So, here I am a day late and always a dollar short. The grizzled old perv staring back at ya today is 56-year-old Ronald Thornton. While visiting his son’s home last SaturdaySaturday reviews evening, Ronald got a hankerin’ for a piece of his granddaughter’s 7-year-old friend. At some point during the visit, Ronald allegedly entered his granddaughter’s bedroom, grabbed her little friend by the wrist, and whisked the child off to the bathroom, locking the door behind him. Meanwhile, Ronald’s son, Jason Thornton, became alarmed after he witnessed the child quickly vanish behind the bathroom door. Thinking there was something wrong with the child, Jason knocked on the door and asked the little girl if she was ok. The kid didn’t answer, so he asked again. This time, he heard the voice of his father coming from behind the locked bathroom door. “We’ll be out in a minute,” he said. [Read more...]
