Collier County, FL - I love my job here at the Dreamin’ Demon – if I weren’t actively searching for stories to post, I would totally miss out on some of the hilarity that occurs in the good ‘ole US of A on a daily basis. Here we have Wal-Mart, public nudity, and dirty underwear all in the same story – what more could you possibly ask for? Meet Todd Napodano – he was airing out his junk in a Wal-Mart parking lot Monday afternoon, when a mother and her daughter happened to pass by his Chevy box van while searching for their own vehicle. When he noticed he had an audience, Todd allegedly stood up in the van and started shaking his hips, and the family jewels, in their general direction. Instead of laughing hysterically and pointing, like I would have done, the women called authorities. When officers rolled onto the scene about an hour later, Todd was still there in the back of his van, all nekkid and stuff, and still in plain view of the public. [Read more...]

FLEMING ISLAND, Florida - When Dana Whitelaw, 47, got out of the shower Tuesday morning, she found her entire family dead. Her husband, Jerry Whitelaw, 49, had shot their two children — 16-year-old son, Kevin, and 11-year-old daughter, Katy — while they slept. He then turned the gun on himself. Court records show that Dana had filed for divorce in late AugustAugust reviews after 16 years of marriage, but continued to live together during the process. Police have no records of ever having to go to their residence in the past. Kevin was a junior at St. Johns Country Day in Orange Par, Katie attended Grace Episcopal. I think what makes this particular murder-suicide is the blatant purpose behind it. Jerry wanted Dana to live after this, knowing it was the best possible way to hurt her. Kill her kids, then let her live with that fact. Absolutely horrifying in its cold-blooded callousness. I can not possibly imagine anything my wife could do to me that could have me killing my own kids to get back at her. That is signs of one very, very selfish man – or one that is extremely mentally disturbed. [Read more...]

DeLand, Florida - When I was just a little Jaded, I wanted to grow up and become a cop. I dreamed of saving the world with my shiny gun and my big-ass flashlight. Now that I’m almost all grown up, I realize that I never would have made it past the first week – I would have had a run-in with the likes of the lovely Julie Hubbard and I would have totally lost my shit. The arrest report would have read, “The cracked bitch spit on my leg, and that’s when I pulled out my big-ass flashlight and lit up her insides. The end.” Julie turned what could have been a simple ticket and a fine into a sputum flinging, name calling, law enforcement officer threatening, clusterfuck. [Read more...]

OKEECHOBEE, FLorida - Well, not really. They are just trying to enforce a dress code that includes employees not wearing buttons that promotes a religion. But some Christian got his panties in a bunch when Home Depot asked him to quit wearing a button that stated, “One nation under God“. Of course, Trevor Keezer says it isn’t about religion, its about loving your country. “I was just doing what I think every American should do, just love my country.” Which of course is total bullshit. Had that been the case, then he would have worn the alternate, approved button authorized by Home Depot that stated “United We Stand“. But of course, Keezer declined and hired a lawyer who plan on suing Home Depot for religious discrimination. [Read more...]

Four years later, he was back in court facing charges of lewd and lascivious molestation – the charges in that case were dropped. LuckyLucky reviews guy, huh? Let’s fast forward to the here and now.

TITUSVILLE, Florida. - Here’s a really fucked up one to start your FridayFriday reviews. Christina Mcintyre was arrested Thursday for the attempted murder of her 11-month-old son. What is heinous about this story is how she went about doing it. On Oct 6th, her 2-year-old son had stacked blankets and a bean bag chair on his little brother and then climbed on top and started jumping up and down. Police are not clear on whether Christina encouraged the older boy to do this, but regardless – she did not stop him. In fact, she waited until the little boy stopped breathing for a full minute before calling 911. She informed them that she would let them decide if the infant lived or died while lying to them about giving the boy CPR. Paramedics eventually arrived and were able to revive the boy. It gets crazier. [Read more...]

ORANGE COUNTY, Florida – All this started when parents found out that the mobile home park located near their kid’s bus stop housed 91 registered sex offenders. They tried to get the bus stop moved, but that effort failed. SexSEX offenders cannot live near schools, churches and day cares – but there is nothing that says they can’t live by a bus stop. The Orange County School District checked and state there are no ‘conditional release’ offenders living in the trailer park – meaning none are barred from living within 1,000 feet of a school. The district says if there were, they wouldn’t have the bus stop there even though the law doesn’t even address bus stops. Regardless, one woman came up with an idea. Since the RSO’s cannot live near a daycare, why not just build one near them and force them to move. Lake Shore Village Mobile Home Park. This would force the sex offenders living there to move within 24hours of the day care opening. “Hey, that’s pretty clever!” you may be thinking. But is it, really? [Read more...]

Lakeland, Florida A little after 3 pm on Monday, firefighters responded to a car fire on the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Tampa, Florida. They had no way of knowing that they were about to drive up on an arson, a homicide, and a suicide. Court records show that Robert Laird and his wife, Sheryl, were divorced and she was granted an injunction keeping him from having contact with her. All who had contact with Sheryl describe her as being a positive woman despite the past marital problems and despite having to share her daughter with the man she feared. None of that matters now. Robert drove to the top of that bridge, doused the car with gasoline and turned it into a torch with his dead wife in the trunk, and lept from the bridge as the firefighters worked to extinguish the flames. And at 6 pm, their 7-year-old daughter was still sitting patiently waiting to be picked up from Happy Days School. [Read more...]

Stuart, FL – Grace Calabrese and her husband thought they had a really big raccoon in the attic of their condo – they could hear him up there, scuttling and scurrying around. Opening a closet door to gain access to the attic, GraceGrace reviews discovered they didn’t have a critter at all – they had a creepy, tattooed, loser guy crawling around in there. She had but a glimpse of the interloper as she opened the door – a chair attached to a cord was being lowered to the floor from the attic door in the ceiling. At the other end of the cord, a tattooed arm. The arm retreated back into the ceiling once it’s owner realized that Grace was armed with a knife. [Read more...]

Kissimmee, FL – The guy you see before you, with the bad-ass stripey-head ‘do, is 19-year-old Jonathan Alicea. Much like many of the men we feature here on the Dreamin’ Demon, Jonathan has a girlfriend with a couple of rugrats. And, much like many of the women we feature here, that girlfriend trusted her man with the lives of her children while she went about earning a living. And, like many of the stories we feature here, it doesn’t end well. Jonathan was playing Mr. Mom on Sunday and whipped up some dinner for the kiddos, ages 2 and 6. The 2-year-old may not have been extremely thrilled with Jonathan’s culinary skills and refused to eat. (Dinner was hot dogs and scrambled eggs – doesn’t sound very appetizing to me either). Jonathan was displeased. Already angry at the child’s refusal to eat, his temper boiled over when the kid peed his pants. What Jonathan did next both angers and baffles. [Read more...]

DeLand, FL – Before you blow your top and end up gracing the front page of the Dreamin’ Demon, remember, there are many effective ways of dealing with stress without resorting to violence. Of course, I neither know nor practice any of them, but I have heard of ways others deal with their tension. Some people shop ’til it hurts. Others drink themselves into oblivion – forgetting their own name and the reason for their angst. Some toke it up and pig out on Doritos until their mood improves. And Morbid, well, he masturbates. A. Lot. (Ask him about his carpal tunnel sometime). When Darren Daniels discovered his wife may have *gasp* smoked his last cigarette, he went postal and killed his pet rat. What the hell the rat had to do with anything is beyond me…I guess there wasn’t a toddler lurking anywhere in the vicinity. [Read more...]
