Everyman's Dream....Oops, Make That Nightmare

California Dude Tired of Erection


4-30-02

A California man has sued BMW North America and a motorcycle-seat maker claiming that a four-hour round-trip ride on his 1993 BMW bike with a "ridge-like" seat gave him "a severe case of priapism (a persistent, lasting erection)" that's lasted 20 months and counting.

While there have been concerns about narrow "banana" bike seats causing loss of feeling in that area -- for men and women -- this is the first report we've seen of way too much.

The product liability lawsuit against BMW and well-known aftermarket seatmaker Corbin-Pacific (reported first by Courthouse News Service in California) was filed in California Superior Court in San Francisco last Thursday by Henry Wolf and his lawyer, Vernon Bradley of Sausalito.

The Wolf v. BMW lawsuit alleges that Wolf has continued to suffer the erection problem since the September 2010 ride -- and, as we know from Viagra ads, anything past four hours is a problem.

The lawsuit for emotional distress says Wolf is "now is unable to engage in sexual activity, which is causing him substantial emotional and mental anguish."

Wolf wants compensation from BMW and Corbin for lost wages, medical expenses, emotional distress and "general damage."

All Bite - No Bark - Yeouch

Breaking up is never easy-- having 32 teeth ripped out is even worse.


A scorned dentist is facing jail time after surgically removing all of her ex-boyfriend's teeth after he dumped her, authorities in London said.

Marek Olszewski, 45, made the mistake of scheduling an appointment this week with his ex -- 34-year-old Anna Mackowiak -- for a toothache, according to the Daily Mail.

So Mackowiak did what any burned beau with a set of pliers and some anesthetic would do: she doped him up, pulled out all his teeth, and wrapped his head with bandages so he wouldn't notice until he left her office.
"I tried to be professional and detach myself from my emotions," she told the news site. "But when I saw him lying there I just thought, 'What a bastard.'"

Olszewski could tell something was wrong when he awoke and couldn't feel any teeth in his mouth. But he said Mackowiak assured him that he'd be fine once the numbness wore off, NDTV reported.
"I didn't have any reason to doubt her -- I mean I thought she was a professional," he said.

He was wrong.
"But when I got home I looked in the mirror and I couldn't fucking believe it," he said. "The bitch had emptied my mouth."

Worse, Olszewski's new girlfriend then dumped him because, well, she couldn't date a man without any teeth, the Daily Telegraph reported.

Mackowiak is under investigation for medical malpractice and abusing the trust of a patient. She could face three years in jail for the alleged stunt. Olszewski plans on saving money to get "indents or something."

 April 26, 2012 

BREMERTON, Wash., April 26 (UPI) -- A Washington state burglar who was chased off by a gun-wielding homeowner called later in the day to offer a trade for items he left behind, police said.

Bremerton police said officers were called to a Pitt Avenue home around 3 a.m. and the homeowners told them they had awakened to the sound of a burglar in the house and they chased him off with a gun, KOMO-TV, Seattle, reported Thursday.

Police said the burglar called the homeowners in the afternoon and breathlessly offered to trade some of the items he had taken from their home for a bag he had left behind, which contained papers bearing his name and an oxygen tank for his emphysema.

The homeowners agreed and the burglar arrived at the home to find police waiting for him.
Police Sgt. Kevin Crane said the burglar, whose name was not released, was very polite during the incident and apologized to the homeowners while he was being arrested.

"It's very unusual," Crane said of the case. "I've never seen this happen before where a burglar contacts the victim trying to make a deal to exchange things he left behind for some of the items he stole from the victims."

Bullet

Modesto Police said the 56-year-old man, whose name was not released, told them he was working out Wednesday night when he accidentally dropped a dumbbell on a rimfire .22-caliber bullet, depicted above, causing the propellant powder in the bullet to be activated and sending it into his shoulder, The Modesto Bee reported Friday.

Officer Chris Adams said police found the story suspicious, but not impossible. He said investigators did not find any guns in the house and witnesses did not report seeing anyone else leave. Adams said officers did find the casing for the bullet.

Minimize Waste - Maximize Pleasure

Egypt’s Islamists  have outraged the civilized world by proposing several pieces of legislation that begin the process of rolling back the meager gains made by women in that country over the last decade.
The first proposed law would lower the legal age a girl can marry to 14. The second proposal, inspired by a fatwa from a Moroccan cleric, would grant husbands permission to have sex with their wives within 6 hours of their death.

It was not immediately clear how this process would be managed.  Would it require an official monitor to certify the date and time of each act of intercourse?  How would oral sex be counted?

Egyptian women's groups strongly oppose the measure, arguing it violates the sanctity of the woman's body.  Proponents of the law say it may be the first and only time Muslim males have seen their wives' naked body because of Islam's harsh code of morality.

There are worse ways to die, but then again, maybe not.

China

A Chinese man was reportedly killed last week when a woman squeezed his testicles until he collapsed during a fight over a parking space.

An unidentified 41-year-old woman in China's Haiku City in the Hainan Province rode into town on her scooter to pick her child up from school. The woman tried to park in front of a local store, but the store
owner, the 42-year-old victim, refused to allow it, China News 24 reported.

The resulting fight escalated, leading the woman to call her husband and brother, who in turn got into a more violent fist fight with the shopkeeper, according to the website. At some point in the fracas, the woman grabbed the man's testicles and squeezed them until he collapsed. He was taken to a hospital for treatment and later died.

"Hot Dog" Attack

Police: Hot dog vendor attacks rival 

Apr 26 2012 

Associated Press and Editors of BS

No, it was not a lovers' quarrel or a case of romantic jealousy........

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — An Albuquerque hot dog vendor was charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon after ramming his food cart into a competitor.

Police say Eric Kilmer used his hot dog cart to run over the legs and feet of rival Vincent Montoya. Other vendors told KOB-TV (http://bit.ly/JIpUAd ) that Montoya is seeking a restraining order against Kilmer.

It was not immediately known why the two were fighting though there was a rumor that Montoya had disparaged Kilmer's dogs and Kilmer claims to sell the best hot dogs in New Mexico.

If Kilmer is convicted, he could face up to three years in prison, a steep price for a hot dog. It was unclear if he had an attorney, even a 'dog' attorney.

Montoya probably can't work because of his injuries and will sue Kilmer for money damages.

With Montoya sidelined and Kilmer broke Albuquerque's hot dog lovers will suffer the loss.

Research reveals that there has not been an instance historically in New Mexico of anyone being killed  by a hot dog vending cart.

From his hospital bed Montoya threatened to get even, using a wrecking ball.  His lawyer discounted Montoya's statements because he was under heavy sedation.

Only A Matter of Time

April 26, 2012

Philadelphia-area Muslims are offering a $20,000 crimestoppers reward after a series of recent bank robberies and a homicide by men wearing women's Islamic garb to conceal their identities, The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

The Majlis Ash Shura, which represents dozens of Muslim congregations, offered the reward at a news conferfence Tuesday attended by elected officials, including the district attorney, at City Hall.

WATCH:  Video of Philly bank robberies

There have been five bank robberies in Philadelphia since December by men wearing a loose dress, or abaya, and a head covering known as a niqab.
One man charged with an April 18 killing in a barber shop allegedly wore a woman's robe as part of a robbery ruse.
"Whatever happened to the mask?" asks Imam Asim Abdul-Rashid, head of the Masajid of the Delaware Valley, the newspaper reports.
Muslim leaders fear that women wearing the traditional garb will be ostracized and targeted, The Inquirer reports.
Amir Imam al-Atharee, a member of the Majlis Ash Shura, says this kind of activity "makes it dangerous for Muslim women and the community."

April 11, 2012

A five-year-old boy brought packets of heroin to a show and tell at his Connecticut kindergarten, leading to the arrest of his stepfather, police said on Tuesday.

The child was proudly displaying packets of a powdery substance to his kindergarten classmates in Bridgeport, Connecticut, on Monday when his teacher noticed what he was holding, Detective Keith Bryant of the Bridgeport Police Department said.

The Fiscal Times FREE Newsletter

"He was waving it around," Bryant said, adding that the teacher collected the packets and immediately notified her supervisors.
Authorities were called and a field test determined the substance was heroin, he said.

Later, the child's stepfather, Santos Roman, 35, showed up at the school and was arrested.

"He went to retrieve it (his stash), and it wasn't there so he came back for his stepson," Bryant said.
Roman was arraigned on Tuesday on three drug-possession charges, including intent to sell within 1,500 feet of a school and risk of injury to a minor, police said. Roman was held on $100,000 bail.

Dude Tries To Steal Plane Chained to Tarmac

A dude whipped out a gun and tried to steal a plane at the Woodley Airport in Compton last night. It didn't work out too well for him.

April 22, 2012


Troy Daniel Long, a 25-year-old former flight student from Bellflower, went into the airport office around 8 am yesterday and took the keys to the airplane, according to City News Service. When some employees tried to stop him, he waved a gun at them and got away. He hopped into the cockpit of a Cessna 152, revved up the engine and was ready to go. But the plane wouldn't budge: it was still chained to the tarmac.

"The plane was lurching and bucking against the chain which was holding it in place," said Deputy Peter Gomez of the Sheriff's Headquarters Bureau. "Numerous deputies with guns drawn began yelling for Long to turn off the plane's engine."

The photo below is of an unchained Cessna.

Davis gave up after a while and came out with his hands up, just like it was a regular old carjacking, except that he will probably be facing much more serious federal charges. Long was booked by FBI agents for suspicion of aircraft piracy and taken to the Federal Metropolitan Detention Center.
We're kind of curious about Long's plans and just how far he thought he would get.

Aussie Woman Compensated For Sex Injury On The Job.

An Australian female civil servant won compensation for an injury sustained while having sex on a business trip, the Sydney Morning Herald reports. The Australian Federal Court ruled the woman was entitled to compensation claim for facial and psychological injuries suffered when a light fixture fell off the wall and on top of her in a motel room bed where she was having sex with a male friend. The woman, who remains anonymous to protect her identity, suffered injuries to her nose, mouth and a tooth from the glass light hitting her face, according to the BBC. The incident, which took place in November 2007, reverses a previous lower court decision. As an employee for Australia's Commonwealth Government agency, the woman's lawyer argued sex was an ordinary incident of life in a hotel room, reports NEWS.com.au. Because the woman had been on a work trip, the judge made the decision to compensate her for the incident. "If the applicant had been injured while playing a game of cards in her motel room, she would have been entitled to compensation," Justice John Nickolas said.

Alabama Preserves the National Morals Code

Alabama bans beer brand over "dirty" name on label

Apr 19 2012

Associated Press and Editors of BS

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — You can buy Fat Bastard wine or Raging Bitch beer in Alabama, but you'll have to go elsewhere for Dirty Bastard beer.

The state alcoholic beverage control agency said it has banned the sale of Dirty Bastard beer in the state because of the profanity on its label.

Beer and wine are commonly sold in grocery and convenience stores and anyone can see the labels, so staff members rejected the brand because parents may not want young people to see rough language on the shelves, said Bob Martin, an attorney with the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.

That's the whole reason for the rule, to keep dirty pictures and dirty words away from children, who never hear or see them at home or at school," according to a deranged staff member of the AABCB who spoke only on condition of his IQ not being publicly revealed.

The agency consulted sources including the Federal Communications Commission and Wikipedia to develop a list of objectionable words that should not appear on product labels, and the list includes "bastard."

The state allows the sale of Fat Bastard wine and also approved the sale of another brand of beer called Raging Bitch, but both of those decisions were made years ago. Ho hum!

More than one-third of Alabama's 67 counties still prohibit the sale of alcohol, and all but two counties in north Alabama are dry.

Dumb Girlfriend Gives Up Dumb Thief

Photo of gas theft from police car brings arrest

Apr 19 2012
Associated Press

JENKINS, Ky. (AP) — There it was on Facebook for all to see — Michael Baker with a gas can, a siphon hose stuck into a police cruiser in eastern Kentucky and a middle finger raised.

Among those who saw it were Jenkins police, who arrested 20-year-old Baker on Monday and charged him with theft by unlawful taking.

Baker told WYMT-TV (http://bit.ly/HUTwfV) in Hazard there wasn't much fuel in the car to siphon and the stunt on Friday was intended as a joke. Baker's girlfriend took the photo and posted it.

Police didn't laugh. Chief Allen Bormes says that if Baker would steal from police, he'd steal from "just about anybody."

Authorities say they plan to buy lockable gas caps.

Airline Pilot Mistakes Planet Venus For Another Plane

Pilot sends plane into dive after mistaking Planet Venus for oncoming plane

Ric Ward, CNN
Tue April 17, 2012

Not the actual plane shone
STORY HIGHLIGHTS

The first officer became disoriented after a nap and mistook Venus for an oncoming cargo plane. Reacting instinctively, he put the Air Canada passenger jet into a violent dive.

14 passengers and 2 flight attendants were injured

The captain saw what was happening and immediately pulled back on the control column in a frantic attempt to increase altitude. As quickly as that, the C-17 passed underneath the Air Canada jumbo jet with 103 people on board.
Within seconds, the plane had gone from its assigned altitude of 35,000 feet down to 34,600 feet and back up to 35,400 feet before finally recovering back to its 35,000 feet cruising altitude.
It sent passengers who were not wearing their seat belts flying.

"I do remember them asking for a doctor -- if there was a doctor," said Julia Pickering, a passenger. "There was a pregnant woman on the flight and she had some injuries."

The flight continued to Zurich, where the injured passengers and crew were treated.

The incident points out a couple of inherent risks.

First, "North American-based pilots flying eastbound at night towards Europe are at increased risk of fatigue-related performance" issues.

It also proves the warning you often hear -- but might ignore -- that passengers should wear their safety belts at all times when seated.

Human Flesh Used to Stuff Brazilian Pastries Sold To Neighbors

Cannibal Pastry Chefs

April 16, 2012

SAO PAULO -- Police have arrested three people for allegedly killing at least two women, eating parts of their bodies and using their flesh to make stuffed pastries known as empanadas that they sold to neighbors in their northeastern Brazil city.

The three suspects – a man, his wife and his mistress – belonged to a sect that preached "the purification of the world and the reduction of its population," police inspector Wesley Fernandes in the city of Garanhuns told the Globo TV network Friday.

The newspaper Estado de S.Paulo said the man, Jorge Beltrao Negromonte, wrote a 50-page book titled "Revelations of a Schizophrenic" in which he says he hears voices and is obsessed with the killing of women.

Fernandes said the three were arrested Wednesday and had confessed to the crimes.

The three allegedly lured women to their house by promising them a job as a nanny. They were tracked down after one of the arrested women used a credit card belonging to a victim who disappeared last month.

Police found the remains of the two women in the backyard of the suspects' house, which enraged neighbors burned to the ground Thursday.

Fernandes identified the three as Negromonte; his wife, Isabel Cristina Pires; and his mistress, Bruna Oliveira da Silva.

The three allegedly had plans for killing another woman living in the nearby city of Lagoa do Ouro, Fernandes said.

Daring French Police Raid Smashes Dangerous Contraband Eiffel Tower Operation

French police seize 13 tons of tiny Eiffel Towers


Apr 13 2012

THOMAS ADAMSON, Associated Press and Bizarre Stuff Editors

PARIS (AP) — Paris police say they've seized some rather unusual contraband: around 13 tons of mini Eiffel Towers.

Police official Pierre Coric says a Paris souvenir shop owner, her husband and her son also were arrested in the weighty trinket-seizure Friday.

The three are accused of selling the mini towers at tourist spots including the Louvre and the actual Eiffel Tower without a permit, thus escaping taxes and endangering the public.

The operation, led jointly by French customs, social security, the police transport division, and possibly the French Foreign Legion, followed several months of surveillance of the souvenir shop. Police say the boutique illegally rakes in some ¬1 million ($1.31 million) per year.

More than 8 vans were required to move the 13 tons of loot seized, as compared to the weight of the real Eiffel tower, which weighs 11,100 tons.

Dumb Robber Incriminates Self By Posting Stolen Loot and Picture of Self on Facebook

Police in North Port, Fla., say a man was arrested for robbery after uploading pictures of himself on Facebook posing with the loot and a gun linking him to the crime, the Sarasota Herald-Tribune reports.

Jovan Cummings, 24, and his girlfriend, Nicole Catherine Eaton, 22, were arrested for allegedly robbing a Dollar General in March of $3,000 after assaulting one store employee and binding him with duct tape.

The newspaper says a detective looking at surveillance video thought the robbers looked like Cummings and Eaton, who had previously had run-ins with the law.

A check of photos on Cumming's Facebook page showed him holding a wad of cash and also wearing what police said was "the exact same hat" as the store robber.

There was also a video of him brandishing a handgun like the one used in the robbery, the newspaper says, quoting police.

Burglar arrested taking shower after champagne and a meal in burglarized home


Apr 13 2012

Associated Press

JOSHUA TREE, Calif. (AP) — Police say a naked burglar was arrested while taking a shower after he sipped champagne and ate a meal in a Southern California family's home.

San Bernardino County sheriff's Sgt. Steve Wilson says 25-year-old Michael Calvert was arrested at gunpoint by deputies while he lathered up in the shower Thursday night. He offered no resistance other than dropping the soap.

KCDZ radio says that after helping himself to a bottle of champagne and a meal, Calvert decided to take a shower in the Joshua Tree home. The Mojave Desert community is 130 miles east of downtown Los Angeles.

The homeowners called 911 after returning home at 8:10 p.m. and hearing someone in the shower.

Calvert was booked for investigation of residential burglary. He's in jail with bail set at $25,000 and was not available for comment.

Roman Centurions Battle Police At Colosseum

Italian Wannabe Centurions Rebuffed by Cops



Italian men dressed as Roman centurions scuffled with police today outside Rome's Colosseum during a protest over the right to pose for photos with tourists for money.

A British newspaper's Rome correspondent says one man was carried off on a stretcher as about 60 centurions, some waving fake swords, and their supporters blocked tourists from entering the ancient Colosseum.

The Guardian says a crackdown on the centurions followed claims that they were selling fake tours to tourists and pressuring them to hand over a lot of money for a photograph. The newspaper says 30 were arrested last August.

A spokesman for the centurions says a group has met with local authorities and they would like to arrange to get licenses and IDs.

Man With Improbable Name Charged With Sextortion

Man Charged With 'Sextortion' Of Teen Boys

Police Say Man Could Have Hundreds Of Victims

April 9, 2012

INDIANAPOLIS -- An Indiana man accused of coercing teen boys across the country into sexual activity that he recorded online could have hundreds of victims.

FBI investigators found sexually explicit videos showing hundreds of teenagers on the computer of Richard Leon Finkbiner, 39, of Brazil, Ind., according to court documents.

Finkbiner was arrested Friday at his home on charges he extorted teenage boys in Maryland and Michigan, both 14 years old, by threatening to post sexually explicit videos of them online.

"In both instances, Finkbiner allegedly captured sexually explicit video of the victims online through the use of an anonymous video chat website," according to a news release from the office of Joseph Hogsett, U.S. attorney for Indiana's southern district. "Finkbiner then is alleged to have told both minors that if they did not follow specific instructions, those video clips would be released on the internet and/or would be forwarded to the minor’s friends.

The complaint alleges that as part of this 'sextortion' scheme, Finkbiner then coerced the minor males into recording sexually explicit videos for him."

Finkbiner estimated to FBI agents that he had coerced at least 100 individuals into such videos, investigators said.

"There is much investigation left to be done," Hogsett said. "We are fearful it could involve hundreds of individuals, not only here in Indiana but throughout the country."

Finkbiner faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison on the current charges

Investigators asked any potential victims to contact the Indianapolis Cyber Squad Division of the FBI at 877-542-8979.

Get A Belt Or Get Belted

Ala. judge orders man to jail for sagging pants

Apr 11 2012
Associated Press

Not the actual teenager>>

PRATTVILLE, Ala. (AP) — A central Alabama judge ordered a man to serve three days in jail for contempt of court for wearing so-called saggy pants.

Twenty-year-old LaMarcus D. Ramsey was in Autauga County Circuit Court on Tuesday to enter a plea on a charge of receiving stolen property.

Circuit Judge John Bush told Ramsey his blue jeans were sagging too low and gave him the three-day stint. The judge told Ramsey to buy pants that fit or a belt when he gets out of the county jail.

The judge says he finds it disrespectful and a disruption when people wear pants below their waistline in his chambers.

"To me it's not any different than if someone stood up in court and started cussing everybody out," Bush said. "It's disrespectful conduct and I think as judges we're expected to at least have some degree of control and respect for the courtroom the people have given us charge of."

Calls to Ramsey's public defender were not immediately returned.

The Need To Feed

Debates have flared over where it's okay for women to breastfeed in public, but here's one location that's definitely off-limits -- inside a stranger's home with someone else's baby.

That's what happened in South Dakota where a mom was startled to find a woman she didn't know breastfeeding her child in her Brookings bedroom on Sunday, radio station KJJQ reported.

The mom called 911 after she allegedly found the intruder around 5 a.m. feeding her two-month-old infant, according to the Associated Press.

The mother got her baby back from the rogue lactating lady, but the suspect stayed in the house and lay on the resident's bed until police arrived to arrest her.

Brookings police department officials didn't return calls from The Huffington Post, but news reports said the 24-year-old suspect was charged with unlawful occupancy.

Neither the suspect nor victim was identified.

Hard Up In Hamilton, Ohio

Man Arrested For Having Landlocked Sex With Pink Blow-Up Pool Raft

April 11, 2012

Meet Edwin Tobergta.

The Ohio man, 32, is facing a public indecency rap for allegedly having sex with a pink blow-up pool raft early Sunday morning.

Tobergta, pictured here, was not in a pool at the time, however. According to a Hamilton Police Department report, a witness spotted Tobergta--with his pants at his ankles--getting busy with the raft in an alley.

After the witness yelled at Tobergta, he reportedly threw “a pink object over the fence.” Cops noted that, “A pink raft was located in the back yard” of a neighboring home, where residents said that the inflatable item did not belong to them.

When questioned by police, Tobergta said that he “was doing it but only because he has a problem and that he needs help.” He asked not to be jailed, but instead sent “somewhere to get help.” Cops were not sympathetic and Tobergta was booked into the Butler County jail, where he remains in custody in lieu of $20,000 bail.

An arrest report describes Tobergta as a 5’ 6” white male who weighs 130 pounds. It also lists his “Gang Affiliation” as “Cript.” Which we’re going to assume is a mistake of some type.

Budding Young Arsonist In Alaska

7-year-old boy responsible for string of Alaska arson fires

Apr 08 2012


JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — A 7-year-old Juneau boy has admitted setting five arson fires over a little more than four months, according to fire officials in Alaska's capital.

Juneau fire marshal Dan Jager tells the Juneau Empire (http://bit.ly/Hr6wKe ) that the boy caused about $1,000 in damages by setting fires in restrooms at Harborview Elementary School and the Terry Miller Legislative Building, plus a downtown grass fire and two fires at a Fred Meyer store.

The boy's name was not released.

"He won't be going to jail," Fire Chief Richard Etheridge said, but the case will be forwarded to probation officers at the Johnson Youth Center.

The boy told fire officials during interviews Wednesday that he set the small fires with a lighter he found. There was no immediate indication of why, Jager said, but the incidents were dangerous.

"He has no idea how big the fires could have gotten," Jager said. "He could have gotten hurt, and other people could have been hurt because some of those buildings were occupied. Being that age, I don't think he understood the magnitude of what could have happened."

The boy's grandmother is his legal guardian. She was surprised to learn her grandson was playing with fire, Jager said.

"It definitely got her attention, and I think she's going to be a big help making sure that the boy understands what he's doing," Jager said.

A surveillance camera at the legislative building recorded the boy entering and exiting the bathroom at the time of the fire. A maintenance worker extinguished the fire and did not call for assistance but contacted police and submitted video footage.

The worker also helped identify the boy, Jager said. The worker showed a picture of the boy to his daughter, who is about the same age, and she recognized him.

About a half hour after the fire at the legislative building, the grass fire broke out nearby, and the fire department responded with crews.

"That one we knew was kind of suspicious because that location outside, a fire doesn't just happen," Jager said.

The boy had previously confessed to setting fire to plastic storage totes in the outdoor center at Fred Meyer in December, as well as another fire in a Fred Meyer restroom in January.

The boy may have started other fires, Jager said. Police and fire officials are investigating a fire in a public restroom at City Hall in late January and early February.

Crazed Thrill Killer Then and Now

Charlie Manson - Then and Now

April 8, 2012

More than forty years ago Charles Manson, a charismatic drug guru and leader of a hippy family in California, was convicted of orchestrating the barbaric Tate-La Bianca thrill killings and was sentenced to life in prison. He has been denied parole on 11 occasions.

These two photos reveal what Manson looked like in 1969, when he was 35 and what he looks like today, at age 77.

In the hey day of the radical 60s, Manson did so many drugs that his brain was permanently fried,

It has cost the citizens of California roughly $860,000 to keep him incarcerated for 43 years.

Spanish Fly Crashes in Everglades

Fishing show host killed in small plane crash

Apr 06 2012

Associated Press and Editors of BizarreStuff

EVERGLADES CITY, Fla. (AP)(BS) — Authorities say it appears the host of a popular fishing show was killed when his single-engine plane crashed in southwest Florida.

The Collier County Sheriff's Office reports that a small plane owned by Jose Wejebe crashed into a field around 5 p.m. Friday, shortly after taking off from an Everglades City airpark.

One body was recovered from the wreckage. A medical examiner still has to officially confirm the identity, but investigators believe it was Wejebe.

The Cuban-born angler hosted "Spanish Fly," a saltwater fishing show on the Outdoor Channel and formerly ESPN.

Apparently unknown to the producers of the show and perhaps Jose, too, is that "Spanish Fly" has been a popular slang term for half a century for an aphrodisiac that allegedly can be obtained in Mexico.

Bleached Groin? Yikes.....

Shenay J. Jackson, 19, of Gainesville, Fla., is accused of pouring bleach into her ex boyfriend's lap while he was driving.


Jackson pushed her ex in the face as he was driving, according to the arrest report filed by Gainesville Police Officer Kimano Edwards. Then she opened a bottle of beach and poured it on his lap.

"(Jackson's) actions caused the victim's clothes to be soaked with bleach which produced a burning sensation to the victim's groin," Edwards wrote in the report, according to the Gainesville Sun.

As a result, the man, who has not been identified, had to pull over and remove his clothes due to the burning caused by the bleach.

An officer says he told three men who were walking on the street with a dog to move to the sidewalk, and that one looked like he might run away, so he asked for identification.

Contreras identified himself as Emiliano Velesco, and a police database search found no matches. The officer then had a dispatcher run a check with the birthday he was given and the last name tattooed on the forearm. Bingo, Contreras was busted.

Contreras had three outstanding warrants for failure to appear on charges including providing false information.

Snake Aboard Plane Had No Valid Ticket

Snake on a plane compels Aussie pilot to turn back

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — An airline executive says a pilot on a cargo run found a snake loose in his light plane and turned back to his north Australian base.

In a scene reminiscent of the 2006 movie "Snakes on a Plane," pilot Braden Blennerhassett saw the snake's head pop out from under the dashboard of his twin-engine Beechcraft Baron G58 shortly after takeoff from Darwin airport on Tuesday.

Air Frontier director Geoff Hunt said Thursday that his employee was a "cool character" who told air traffic control: "I'm going to have to return to Darwin. I've got a snake on board the plane."

The reptile quickly slithered away. A snake handler was later unable to find the snake, which might have escaped after the plane landed. The snake's species is not known.

Then again it might be lurking on board waiting for a chance to strike.

URBANA, Ohio (AP) — A landlord who found a woman's dismembered remains in her bathtub said he had felt compelled to break into the locked bathroom after her worried mother came looking for her.

Gary Zerkle told reporters on Tuesday that 21-year-old Jessica Sacco's mother arrived at Sacco's Urbana home last Thursday, concerned she had not heard from her daughter in days.

Zerkle found Sacco's remains the next morning. Police say Sacco's on-again, off-again boyfriend, Matthew Puccio, had stabbed her, placed a bag over her head and suffocated her. They say Sacco was then dismembered, with some body parts found miles away in Kentucky.

Zerkle was having the house emptied on Tuesday by a crew that wore white protective gear and facemasks and placed items in a large refuse container. He said he plans to have the bathroom gutted.

"I can't go in there thinking about what happened," he said.

Crews were disposing of almost everything but salvaged Sacco's birth certificate and a baby book. Zerkle said he plans to return them to her mother.

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — An information technology worker accused of urinating on colleagues' chairs at an office in Iowa has surrendered to police.

The Des Moines Register reports (http://dmreg.co/HMXr7Q ) that 59-year-old Raymond Foley turned himself in Saturday to face a charge of second-degree criminal mischief.

Foley declined to comment to The Associated Press on Tuesday, other than to acknowledge that he no longer works at the Farm Bureau office in West Des Moines.

Police say some co-workers had complained about stains on their chairs. A security system was installed, and police say it caught Foley in the act.

Police documents say Foley looked up employee photos in the agency database and then would go into the office during off hours and urinate on their chairs.

The chair damage was estimated at $4,500.

CARLSBAD, N.M. — New Mexico authorities arrest three men found with a 220-pound calf in the backseat of their car.

The Carlsbad Current Argus reports that the men are accused of cattle rustling. They were jailed on charges of suspicion of larceny of livestock, conspiracy, lack of a bill of sale and exporting livestock.

Luna County sheriff's office says a deputy pulled over their Honda Civic on Friday and saw the animal sharing the backseat with one of the alleged thieves. The deputy said the back seat was very crowded and smelled.

The three alleged cattle rustlers are being held at the Luna County Detention Center.
