Police arrest Seattle man who threatened to rape woman after posting nude photos of her on 'revenge porn' site

Image
Seattle police accused a 31-year-old self-described "a*shole" and tech worker of stealing a female client's photos, posting them on a "revenge porn" website, and threatening to rape her if she did not "play along" with his scheme, KCPQ-TV reported.

Jeremy Scott "Silo" Walters was charged with computer trespass and cyberstalking for harassing the woman, who paid him $60 in June 2011 to transfer files from an old computer - including several nude photographs - to a new one.

Authorities said in a court document that the suspect "advertises himself on the Internet as a web designer, photographer, graphic designer, podcaster, artist and an 'a*shole.'"

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported that the 10-minute procedure was the last interaction between the two until December 2013, when she received a phone call from a blocked number threatening to publish the photos online if she did not "play along."

Detective says man who left child to die in hot car wanted 'child-free life'

Image
A suburban Atlanta man charged with murder after his 22-month-old son died from being left in a hot car for seven hours was having marital and work problems and wanted to live a child-free life, prosecutors said on Thursday.

The lead detective in the case against Justin Ross Harris, 33, of Marietta said Harris had exchanged sexually explicit text messages with women other than his wife in the weeks before the child's death.

He also had done Internet research on living child-free, how to survive in prison and child deaths in hot cars because he feared it could happen, Cobb County Detective Phil Stoddard testified at Harris' probable cause hearing.

A judge will decide if there is sufficient evidence against Harris on charges of felony murder and child cruelty stemming from his son's June 18 death and whether he should be released on bail pending a trial.

President Obama is celebrating July 4th, by giving greens permission to kill the national bird. This is part of his ongoing efforts to prevent future imaginary CO2 induced asthma attacks.
Wednesday, July 2, 2014

By sacrificing a few bald eagles, the Obama administration may have opened a can of worms.

In a bid to give alternative energy sources a boost, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has quietly granted a California wind energy farm a permit to kill a limited number of endangered bald and golden eagles that get sliced up in its giant turbines. But last week's free pass is sparking anger from wildlife advocates and from free market advocates who ask why they don't qualify for the same dispensation.

Japanese woman dies during 'professional' exorcism

Kumamoto
Kumamoto, Japan, where a woman died during an exorcism.
Japanese police probing the death of a woman who reportedly died after being forced to a drink a lot of water, have arrested an 81-year-old professional exorcist, her younger sister and the victim's husband.

Reports said Rie Fukuda, aged 51, was pinned down and made to swallow a large volume of water in what detectives said was an "exorcism" carried out by her husband and two elderly women.

Kosai Fukuda, 52, an associate professor at a university in the southern Japanese city of Kumamoto, was arrested alongside Eiko Noda, 81, and Keiko Kitayama, 77, police told AFP Friday.

Noda has been performing exorcisms for money for about three decades, Nippon Television reported, citing unnamed sources in the local police.

Noda and Fukuda told police that the dead woman "had been receiving exorcism for several years".

No details were given on the religion of those allegedly involved.

Comment: It's gotta be said: If your exorcist has been working on you for three years, it's time to find a better 'exorcist'!

Fracking nuts! Vermont cops breaks up 'knit-in' at Vermont gas site

Image
"This way please ma'am"... Jane Palmer of Monkton, Vermont, was arrested for knitting at the Vermont Gas Systems headquarters in South Burlington on Wednesday. She and four other women were knitting in protest of a planned pipeline to continue fracking the life out of Vermont.
A "knit-in" was broken up in South Burlington on Wednesday, after five women who are unhappy with a Vermont Gas pipeline plan occupied the utility's waiting room - and occupied themselves by knitting.

One woman was bound off by police, taken away in what Vermont Public Radio says were five squad cars that responded to perhaps the most civil of all disobediences.

The knitters insisted on speaking to Vermont Gas officials about their complaints over a pipeline expansion. They were told they needed an appointment; after the utility's headquarters closed, they were warned that they were trespassing.

Jane Palmer, a diminutive woman in a floral-print dress and a straw hat, was arrested about 30 minutes after the offices closed.

"Palmer was knitting what appeared to be a turquoise scarf, and had knitted about 8 inches of it before Vermont Gas closed at 5 p.m.," VPR's Taylor Dobbs reports.

Comment: To believe NATO's chief, these women are Kremlin agents:

Host Cenk Uygur blasts Laura Ingraham: 'Americans are not as cold-hearted as you'

Young Turks host Cenk Uygur found himself siding with Fox News' Bill O'Reilly on Thursday, if only because they shared an aversion to radio host Laura Ingraham's idea of deporting all 11 million undocumented immigrants from the U.S.

"The bottom line is, Americans are not as cold-hearted as you, Laura Ingraham," Uygur said. "Laura, you've got to get that through your thick skull, but you're never going to. You think everybody's as mean and evil as you are, because that's how you grew up and you think, 'That's my perspective, so isn't everybody as mean and evil as I am? Don't they hate people as much as I do?' And the answer is no."

Uygur played footage of Ingraham's Wednesday night "catfight" with O'Reilly, during which Ingraham laid out her vision of denying immigrants access to social service programs and housing.

The O'Reilly Factor host disagreed with her idea, calling it a "draconian" plan that would effectively doom the Republican Party. But O'Reilly's own idea for dealing with the recent immigrant upswing - trade sanctions against Mexico - has also been criticized.

A female teacher was stabbed to death Friday in front of her pupils at a primary school in the southern French town of Albi by a student's mother, who was immediately detained.

"This morning, a mother showed up with a knife and stabbed a 34-year-old teacher in front of her students, for reasons that will be determined by the investigation," Albi prosecutor Claude Derens told AFP.

"When I arrived at the scene they were trying to revive her. She was in cardiac arrest in her classroom," he said.

President Francois Hollande immediately sent Education Minister Benoit Hamon to the school to take charge of the government response.

"All state services will be mobilised to take care of these children and the staff who witnessed this awful tragedy," Hollande said in a statement.

'She was screaming': Psychopathic Calif. Highway Patrol officer caught on video pummeling woman

Image
An unidentified California Highway Patrol officer is under investigation after getting caught on video beating a woman about the head a dozen times with no apparent indication that he was in danger.

KNBC-TV reported on Thursday that the incident was filmed Tuesday afternoon in Los Angeles by motorist David Díaz as he was making his way onto Interestate 10.

Díaz's 90-second clip begins with the officer catching up to the woman on foot. She appears to walk away from him, before the officer takes her to the ground. After a brief struggle, the officer begins pummeling her with punches to the head. The woman can be seen covering up and not fighting back.

Comment: Once again a cop violently beats what appears to be a defenseless woman and yes it's a white male cop that's beating a black woman!

Another drone mishap: Colorado man finds crashed drone in backyard

George Ray drone crash
© CBSGeorge Ray shows CBS4′s Suzanne McCarroll where the drone was flying before it crashed
A drone crashed into a Brighton man's backyard and now the homeowner wants answers.

George Ray said the drone had a GoPro camera mounted on it and was videotaping over his property located off Interstate 76 near 136th Ave. early this morning.

Ray said he heard a strange sound outside his bathroom, "All I could hear was a 'Beep, beep, beep."

When he looked outside he saw a drone with a camera.

"What dummy would be flying around a drone at 3:30, 3:45 in the morning? It doesn't make sense," said Ray.

Shortly after the drone made an unexpected landing, "This is where it landed at. Apparently it crashed right here, fell to the ground."

Comment: As drones are becoming less expensive and more prevalent in the airways, the potential for crashes is increasing and some no doubt will be deadly. Passenger aircraft pilots are already reporting numerous near-collisions with drones.
