70 Yr old Ex-Judge joins the ranks of Juvenile Delinquents

HOUSTON — A former state district judge in Houston must pay a $1,500 fine after pleading guilty to misdemeanor criminal mischief for keying his neighbor's car.

The Houston Chronicle reports that Woody Densen entered his plea Thursday. In return, prosecutors are dropping a felony criminal mischief charge returned by a Harris County grand jury in June.

Prosecutor Matthew Peneguy says Densen has made restitution for the damage he caused to neighbor Adam Kleibert's 2006 Range Rover. The May 2009 vandalism was captured on surveillance video.

The 70-year-old attorney was an elected state district judge in Harris County from 1983 until his 1994 defeat. He then served as a visiting judge throughout the state until 2007 when the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association filed a complaint against him with the State Commission on Judicial Conduct. The commission later dismissed the complaint.

What We Have Herah Is a Failure to Communicate


Typo costs prisoner 3 extra years in Indonesia

Apr 08 2010

JAKARTA, Indonesia— A Thai man has been released from an Indonesian prison after spending three extra years behind bars because of a typo in his paperwork, a report said Friday.

Kamjai Khong Thavorn, 53, should have been released in 2007 after serving a 20-year sentence for heroin possession but a clerical error wrongly stated his first year in prison as 1997 instead of 1987, the Jakarta Globe reported.

Kamjai was released Thursday after he told Indonesia's justice minister of the mistake during a chance meeting on the minister's tour of the maximum security prison in Central Java, it said.

"We realized the mistake that was made, so he was released unconditionally," the prison's warden, Sutrisman, told the newspaper.

Kamjai was taken to the Thai Embassy in Jakarta, the warden said, where he apparently was shot by an embassy guard who mistook him for a terrorist.

Officials at the justice ministry and prison could not immediately be reached for comment Friday. Komjai's dying words were: "I shoulda stayed in that stinkin' prison; it's better than what I've got here."

Oops, Not Mine. How Do You Suppose That Got There?




Cops: Pa. dad left pot in kindergartner's Elmo bag

Apr 08 2010


UNIONTOWN, Pa.— Police say a Pennsylvania father went to his son's elementary school to retrieve nearly four ounces of marijuana from the kindergartner's Elmo backpack.

State police say Ronald Washington called Menallen Elementary School in Uniontown on Thursday morning to ask if his son had arrived at school. Police say Washington told school officials he needed to fetch something from the boy's backpack, prompting school officials to search it.

Police say school officials called to say they had found pot in the bag. Troopers were waiting to arrest Washington when he arrived shortly before 9 a.m.

Online court records don't list an attorney for the 33-year-old Washington. He was unable to post $100,000 and jailed.

Shortchanged For Sex At White Castle Hamburgers


Man calls 911 after hooker fails to deliver in fast food bathroom

APRIL 5--Meet William Ferris. The Ohio man yesterday paid a prostitute $50 with the understanding that he would receive a full menu of sexual services in the bathroom of a White Castle in Cincinnati. However, when the hooker only performed oral sex on him, Ferris--who was also expecting vaginal sex--contacted police to report that he had just been robbed.

When Hamilton County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to Ferris's 911 call, his "story began to fall apart," according to an arrest report. Ferris admitted that he was not, in fact, robbed by his unidentified paid date. In an interview, a frustrated Ferris told TSG that he expected "all of it for $50," but just got "kissing and sucking" during the 20-minute bathroom encounter.

He added that the hooker picked the White Castle for their assignation since its bathroom locked (not because of the eatery's tasty belly bombers). The unemployed Ferris, charged with solicitation and making a false police report, was scheduled to be arraigned today on the misdemeanor counts. He told TSG that he will be charged with trespassing if he returns to the White Castle on Harrison Avenue.

How to turn a Million Diapers into a Million Bucks - Almost


The former co-owner of a Houston medical equipment company has been convicted of bilking Medicaid of nearly $1 million in a scheme involving adult diapers.

Fred Jessie Cole Jr., 44, pleaded guilty to 14 counts of health care fraud connected to a scam to file fraudulent claims for incontinence supplies. Cole, who is free on bond, is scheduled to be sentenced Aug. 11. He faces up to 10 years in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, up to three years of supervised release, and a lifetime of ridicule as the "Pee King."

Federal officials said Cole, who was co-owner of Crusade Integrated Health Services, admitted to submitting fraudulent claims to the Texas Medicaid Program for diapers that were neither delivered, nor wanted, nor needed, by the Medicare participants. Cole had submitted $1,068,387 worth of claims for diapers to Medicaid and was paid $937,567 for those claims, federal officials said.

Though he initially denied the charge, prosecutors suspected he was simply full of it. Federal authorities said he eventually admitted to submitting claims to Medicaid for the delivery of 1,338,466 units of diapers and briefs when he only purchased 314,571 units and to forging the signatures of Medicaid beneficiaries on delivery tickets.

Dumbass Responds to Group Sex Ad: Goes to Wrong House - Arrested


Cops: Man went to wrong house for 'group sex'

April 6, 2010

WEST HARTFORD -- Police say an ad for group sex led to the arrest of a man who allegedly entered the wrong house and groped an 18-year-old woman.

Richard Zeh, 29, of Newington was responding to the Craigslist ad yesterday when he let himself into the wrong house, where a woman repeatedly asked him to leave, police said.

Zeh then went to the address in the ad, but was told to leave by residents who say they didn't place the ad, police said. Zeh then went back to the first woman's house and allegedly groped her, police said.

Zeh was charged with misdemeanor sexual assault, burglary and other crimes. He was held on $250,000 bail. A woman who answered the phone at his home this morning told reporters she had no problem with group sex herself, but still declined to comment.

Police say they're trying to find out who placed the ad.

When Zeh returned the reporter's call he said he was still trying to find the right house and wanted to know if the reporter knew.

Villainous Pair to Do Hard Time in Dubai For Going Out to Eat

Families enjoy swimming at a public beach in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Sunday April 4, 2010. This photo has nothing to do with the story appearing below. It was just lying around the office, being wasted.


This is the story. See what I mean?

A Dubai appeals court today upheld a one-month prison sentence for a British couple convicted of kissing in a restaurant. The pair landed in court after an Emirati woman complained about the public kiss, which the couple insisted was just a peck on the cheek. They were arrested in November and convicted of inappropriate behavior and illegal drinking.
