JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Charles Roy Southern, 17, and Connor Julian Pridgen, 16, both students of University Christian School, turned themselves in Friday night. After being interviewed by detectives, each was charged with one count of murder in connection to the death of fellow classmate, 17-year-old Makia Coney. This story started with the report of a body being found in a drainage ditch while a group of officers were looking for a missing student last seen Wednesday on the University Christian School campus. On Thursday, the family identified the body, found 3 miles from the school, as Coney’s. No motive has been given, but the two boys admitted to picking up Coney and driving around for a bit before they both shot her in the head and dumped her body. There was no signs of a sexual assault. Read on for mugshots, and some information on how life is going for Pridgen at the juvenile detention center he is currently housed in.…

Alabama – Two stories involving teachers shooting their superiors in one week? On Friday, three people were shot and killed and three others were wounded by a gunman on the campus of the University of Alabama-Huntsville. The suspect, who is in custody, is neuroscientist 42-year-old Dr. Amy Bishop. Bishop joined UAH in 2003 and with her husband, Jim Anderson, created a portable cell-incubator called “InQ”. Bishop was currently involved in a cybernetics project called The Neuristor. Reports are that the shooting took place around 4 p.m. during a meeting regarding the biology department. The theory is that during this meeting Bishop was attending, Bishop learned she would be denied tenure – and after learning that fact, took out her gun and began shooting. Bishop was taken into custody and her husband, UAH geneticist and researcher, has been detained. As she was being taken to jail, Bishop told reporters “It didn’t happen. There’s no way …. they are still alive.” The mother of four has been charged with three counts of capital murder in the first degree and three counts of assault in the first degree. The names of the victims have not been released.…

GREENSBURG, Pa. - This morning there was a story about a woman’s body being found wrapped in plastic and stuffed in a garbage can.
A man found the garbage can under his vehicle in a school parking lot. I was gonna write it up but decided to wait for more details. Holy shit, I was not expecting the details that are now being reported.
Police say the body belonged to 30-year-old Jennifer Daugherty who had been missing since Monday. She had been tortured for 36 hours before she was stuffed in a garbage can and wedged underneath a vehicle.
Daugherty had been stabbed repeatedly, beaten with a towel rack, vacuum cleaner hose and a crutch. She had her face painted with nail polish, fed vegetable oil, spices, detergent, urine, feces and medications, had her head shaved, was bound with Christmas decorations and had been forced to write a suicide note.
Six people have been arrested in connection to her death.
Charged with homicide, conspiracy and aggravated assault are Amber C. Meidinger, 20, Melvin Knight, 20, Ricky V.…

HOUSTON – In 2000, Halle Shamille Smith was born prematurely at 27 weeks. She experienced a number of health problems, had a stroke, got tuberculosis, and spent her life being fed PediaSure though a feeding tube, but still, she weighed a respectable 35 pounds at age 2 (and could sit up, say “mama” and “daddy,” watch TV, and cry when it was diaper change time). In January 2009, when she was brought into Methodist Willowbrook Hospital by her mother and pronounced dead shortly thereafter, 8-year-old Halle weighed a whopping 15.8 pounds. Got that? Fifteen-point-eight, not 158. The medical examiner cited malnutrition and dehydration as the cause of the girl’s death and classified it a homicide. Finally, this past week, Halle’s mother Almita Nicole Lockhart, 34, was arrested and is sitting her worthless drug-using baby-spewing child-starving ass in jail, facing 5 years to life on a felony injury to a child charge. But, wait, Denizens! It gets better worse! Read on and join me for some enraged screaming, tearing of hear, and voluntary smashing of the head against the wall.…

Batesville, MS – Nobody knew Linda Nash was pregnant, and supposedly, even Linda wasn’t aware. Until last weekend, that is. After delivering a baby boy in her parent’s home, 16-year-old Linda stabbed him once in the abdomen, killing him. Authorities believe Linda didn’t want her parents to know she was pregnant – but it was her parents who showed up at the Tri-Lakes Medical Center Saturday night with their daughter and her dead baby in tow. Described as a “bright student with a lot of potential” Linda has been charged as an adult with the murder of her son and is currently being held on $100,000 bond. The Safe Haven Law in the state of Mississippi allow parents to leave their baby, up to three days old, with an employee at any emergency medical provider, hospital emergency room or licensed adoption agency without fear of retribution. As long as the infant doesn’t show signs of abuse there are no questions asked. Period. You know, I have been here at the Dreamin’ Demon for a couple of years now and have read some pretty gnarly stories.…

SALT LAKE CITY – Rod Hernandez was at home talking to his fiancee, 34-year-old Tetyana Nikitina, as she was leaving the Salt Lake Community Action Program Head Start where she worked as a teacher. The conversation ended abruptly when he heard popping noises and then silence. Thinking she had gotten into a wreck, he drove to the school. When he arrived at the scene, he learned that the woman he was to marry on Valentine’s Day had been shot to death. The shooter was Nikitina’s ex-mother-in-law, 70-year-old Mary Nance Hanson.

Monte Vista, CO – Back in October, it was reported that 14-year-old John Caudle was the primary suspect in the slayings of his mother, 34-year-old Joanne Rinebarger, and step-father, 38-year-old Tracy Rinebarger. Because of his age, very little information was released to the public at the time. Court proceedings were sealed and a gag order was issued to all involved parties. It has since been determined that the kid will face murder charges in adult court, so the story can be told. Caudle told investigators that two days before the murders, he had taken two .22-caliber pistols from the home’s gun safe and hid them in his room. On October 26th, after arguing with his mother about household chores, he retrieved one of the guns and shot his mother dead. He then hid in a laundry room and waited for his step-dad to get home – Tracy was shot as he walked past Caudle’s hiding spot. Caudle dragged both bodies into the master bedroom and took $23 and the keys to the family vehicle out of Tracy’s pocket.…

SHIRLEY, Mass — Robert Gulla and Allison Myrick, both 19-years-old, began dating in September but Myrick broke off the relationship in December. Myrick received an emergency restraining order against Gulla shortly afterward that would last for 24 hours. Myrick filed for another restraining order against Gulla last Tuesday that would remain in effect until Feb. 2. Myrick had to get help from Fitchburg State College campus police at least twice because of Gulla’s harassment. On Saturday, Myrick went to the home of Gulla’s mother where he lived in the basement. Gulla’s mother told police she heard them arguing and left. When she returned several hours later, she would find Myrick stabbed to death and her son suffering from knife and gunshot wounds. Prosecutors said Gulla stabbed Myrick with a knife and then used it on himself, and shot himself in the head with a rifle-style air gun.…

Delton, WI – Michael Crisafulli, 13, had a bad day last Tuesday. First he was expelled from school. Then he had to deal with his angry father, 55-year-old Angelo Crisafulli. As punishment for the expulsion, Angelo took Michael to his uncle’s house where he was made to work on a car axle. That’s punishment? I cringe to think what I would have had to endure had I been expelled from school. Getting my fingernails dirty with axle grease would have been a blessing. Later that day, Michael’s “balloon of anger” just up and popped. He retrieved a small caliber pistol from his father’s gun cabinet, approached his father as he reclined in his recliner, and shot him in the back of the head. Michael then attempted to remove the body from the home by placing it in a small wagon and wheeling it out the front door. Well, that didn’t work – when the body fell out of the wagon, Michael couldn’t lift it and left it there on the floor.…

PORTERVILLE, CA – Firefighters pulled three children, ages 6, 5 and 2, out of a third floor apartment this weekend as smoke came “pouring out” of the door from food that had been left on the stove. You might be asking yourself “Where are the damn parents?”- They were lying on the floor of the apartment, dead from gunshot wounds to the head. Details are vague as to what exactly happened, but police have ruled the incident a “murder-suicide”; Michael Vasquez, 26, apparently shot his wife and mother of his children, Cheanna Sidhu, 24, directly in the head after an argument. The single gunshot killed her instantly, and Michael turned the weapon on himself. The couple had just recently moved into the Porterville Family Apartments with their three children; officials at the apartment complex declined to be interviewed but neighbors claim that despite one incident of yelling, the couple was rarely heard fighting. This has made it difficult for police to understand a motive for this seemingly impulsive crime.…

On October 29, 1972, Ezra Cray and his 52-year-old blind wife, Annie Mae, were in bed. There was a knock at the door of their home at 4 Henry Street, Rochester, NY. Annie Mae went to the door, spoke with the person and went back to bed. Although blind, Annie was excellent at recognizing voices and Ezra believes she knew the caller or would not have spoken with him. Shortly after the knock at the door, Ezra heard a cracking sound and felt pain in his head. He awakened to a man standing over Annie Mae, beating her. He was once again knocked unconscious. A bloodied piece of wood about the size of a small log was found in the bedroom. Later, Ezra identified a person whom he believed was in the room that night. That person was James Kimble, a friend of son Tommie Cray. However, Kimble had an alibi which checked out and was dismissed as a suspect. That is until lab technicians recently matched his DNA to DNA on a blanket at the scene.…

Harlem – Witnesses describe seeing Jameg Blake (myspace page), 22, shoot his childhood friend Kwame Dancy (myspace page), also 22, in the neck with a shotgun. Dancy would later die from his injuries and Blake would be arrested and charged with his murder. Why this is making news is because hours before the shooting, the pair were engaged in an on-line argument on Twitter. If you are not aware of what Twitter is, look it up, join and then follow us! It’s COOL. Anyway, this murder is now being labeled the first TWITTER MURDER! I checked out both Twitter pages and it does look like there was some fighting going on (some reports state it was over a woman). Blake’s Twitter account is set to private, but Dancy’s Twitter account is not and is still up. His last two tweets were made just before he was murdered. One states “Bout to get back on my grimey bk shit niggas is lookin for u don’t think I won’t give up ya address for a price betta chill asap!…

Macomb County, MI - Mohammed Abdul-Fazal Chowdhury, 22, was accused of the Sept. 2009 stabbing death of his wife, 25-year-old Suraia Miah (she was also his cousin). She had been stabbed more than 60 times in the face, torso, head and neck, and was nearly beheaded. When police arrived at the couple’s apartment, they discovered Miah face down in a pool of blood on the kitchen floor. Their 2-year-old son was sleeping in another room. Chowdhury initially told police that a trio of men broke into their apartment and murdered her. He was later arrested and charged with her murder and was sitting in the Macomb County Jail awaiting trial. But on Friday, he was found dead in his cell. He had used a razor blade from a shaving tool available through the jail’s commissary to cut off his genitals, and then to slit his own throat. If that isn’t strange enough, officials have not been able to find his dick. Jail officials did not hear or see anything as Chowdhury had shut the door and covered the window of the room.…

Miami, Florida – Passers-by noticed a fire inside a Miami dumpster and alerted authorities. The cause of the fire turned out to be the body of 26-year-old Paula Sladewski. It took two days to identify Sladewski, who stars in the video “Playboy: The Ultimate Playmate Search”, because she was so severely burned that officials had to identify her using dental records. Her boyfriend, Kevin Klym, 34, has been named a person of interest although he denies having anything to do with her death. He claims the last he saw her was during the early morning hours of Sunday inside a Miami nightclub – right before he was kicked out after the pair got into a shouting argument. Klym claims he then took a taxi back to their hotel room, leaving Sladewski at the club. Sladewski’s stepfather, Richard Watkins, doesn’t understand why he would just leave his daughter there, and also revealed that the couple’s two year relationship was often a violent one. Court records show that during the summer, Sladewski was arrested for breaking a bottle over Klym’s head and in December, Klym was arrested for braking Sladewski’s nose during an argument.…

St. George Island, FL- 71-year old Marianne Bordt and her husband were vacationing with their 5-year old grandson, Camden Hiers, in Florida on Monday when the bitch did the unthinkable. After her husband went to the store, she drowned Camden in the bathtub.

When Mr. Bordt went into the house, he found his grandson lying in the bathtub with his face in the water. He pulled Camden out of the bathtub and placed him on the living room floor.

Missouri – First, James McNeely was kidnapped. Then his hands and feet were bound with duct tape. Then the 20 year old was tortured on a dirty mattress in the basement of a residential home in Laddonia. The details of his ordeal are gruesome – his attackers kicked him, beat him, terrorized him with weapons. They tied James to a chair and wrapped wire around his throat, and in the end, used a trash bag to suffocate the young man. When they were done torturing and killing him, they wrapped James’ body in a tarp and threw it on a refrigerated truck, where it was discovered by police on Dec 22. Who’s responsible for this terror? Eight people – EIGHT! – have been charged in connection to this case, the first being Chester Harvey Jr., who held his wife and children hostage in a standoff before finally being taken in by police. His wife, Angela, and 19 year old son, Chad, were also arrested for murder, and three other men and two juveniles are being charged. …

Salt Lake City , UT. - On the evening of September 10, 1998, 10-year-old Anna Palmer was sexually assaulted and stabbed numerous times in the neck, one wound nearly severing her spinal cord. This all took place on Anna’s front porch, on a busy street across from an elementary school where activities were occurring. Yet, there were no witnesses aside from a friend of Anna’s who told police a man she did not know followed the pair as they walked home from school that day. Luckily, fingernail scrapings from Anna were preserved and recent DNA testing produced a match to 31-year-old Matthew John Breck, a man currently residing in an Idaho prison for a 2001 conviction of sodomy/lewdness of a child under 16. He also lived down the street from Anna at the time of her murder. Breck now faces felony charges of aggravated murder, sexual abuse and child abuse. Hooray for technology. A sad footnote to this story is that Anna’s father never got over the death of his daughter, and will never see justice served.…
