A 4-year-old girl is in state custody after Arkansas police say she was zip-tied to a bed and hit with a plastic bat. She told officers she thought her name was "Idiot." The child's mother and her boyfriend have been arrested on child abuse charges.

The girl was brought to Cooper-Anthony Mercy Child Advocacy Center in Hot Springs, Arkansas to be examined for multiple injuries. Staff at the center and workers from the Arkansas Department of Human Services quickly called the Hot Springs Police Department, suspecting abuse.

She had "deep purple bruising on her buttocks, lower back, and legs, a blackened eye, a swollen right cheek, a bruise on her forehead, healing scars across her back, and dried blood in the corner of her mouth," the police report said, according to KATV. The young girl was malnourished and had ligature marks on her wrists, implying she had been restrained. When officers asked the child her name, she replied, "Idiot," the Hot Springs Sentinel-Record reported.

The girl's mother, Jennifer Diane Denen, 30, and her live-in boyfriend, Clarence Eugene Reed, 47, were both at the advocacy center when police arrived and were taken in for questioning. Denen told police she had seen Reed spank her daughter with a plastic bat, and that another child had told her that Reed had zip-tied the 4-year-old to a chair. The boyfriend called the girl "Idiot" on a "regular basis," she said. Denen admitted to not seeking medical attention for her daughter's injuries.

At least 11 field commanders from several terrorist groups, including spiritual leader of Jabhat Fatah Al-Sham (former al-Nusra Front) in Aleppo, have been eliminated by Special Forces units of the Syrian Army in the past five days, a source in government forces HQ in Aleppo said Thursday.

According to the source, a total of 46 militants from al-Nusra Front, Ahrar Ash-Sham and Jaysh al-Muhajireen, have been killed in pinpoint-strike missions.

"Abu al-Walid al-Khani, a spiritual leader of Jabhat Fatah Al-Sham militants in Aleppo, was among those killed," the source told RIA Novosti.

Texas woman enslaved two Mexican immigrants for 14 years and told them she was the voice of God

Texas woman
A federal jury last week convicted a Texas woman of illegally harboring undocumented Mexican women and forcing them to work as slaves in her home cleaning business for nearly a decade and a half. According to a statement from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Olga Sandra Murra, 64, was found guilty of two counts of forced labor and two counts of "harboring an illegal alien."

Born in Mexico, Murra moved to the United States in 1997, bringing with her a woman identified only as "V.R." as she settled first in El Paso, and then Forth Worth, according to ICE. The following year, Murra arranged to have another woman, identified as I.G., transported into the U.S. She kept both women's identification documents.

Once in the country, both women were put to work by Murra, cleaning "three to four homes per day up to seven days per week," ICE said. They were also required to clean Murra's personal residence and cook her meals, despite being fed only bread and water themselves. They were not paid for their labor and were forced to turn over all money and earnings from their house cleaning to Murra. For a short time, Murra also provided I.G. with false ID papers, allowing her to take several service industry jobs alongside her home cleaning work.

Sick! Pervert cop solicits teen girl for sex while on duty

A Jackson police officer has been fired after a disgraceful viral video showed him attempting to solicit sex from a high school girl — while on duty.

Officer Darryl Stasher was demoted to desk duty on Tuesday and finally terminated on Wednesday after the video found its way to the police department.

"Chief Vance finds this video to be very disturbing," said JPD Commander Tyree Jones. "He has a zero tolerance policy for any type of behavior that is obviously displayed on this video itself."

In the video, Stasher clearly cares not about being filmed while propositioning a high school girl for sex from his patrol car. This young girl is someone's daughter and she is being obscenely solicited for sex by a public servant.

Cop slams high schooler to the ground, puts him in chokehold for jaywalking

jaywalking
On his first day as a senior at Hoover High School, Keyshawn found himself in a struggle with a Fresno Police officer who put his hands around the student's neck, slammed him to the ground, and then employed a controversial chokehold — similar to that which killed Eric Garner — while his friend Johnny recorded the incident. His 'crime' was jaywalking.

Although video uploaded to Facebook shows no evidence of weapons, much less violence or significant resistance against the cop who choked Keyshawn or other officers arriving on scene, both were arrested.

What precipitated this scuffle and the arrests of two juveniles? Jaywalking and filming the police — two nonviolent, victimless acts. The latter such a minor infraction that it remains enforceable at all seriously stretches the limits of logic; and the former, a constitutional right, if not — amid this epidemic of police violence and brutality — an imperative civilian duty.

Bomb

Three bombings kill approximately 10, injure 300 within 24 hours in Turkey

A third explosion in the past 24 hours has rocked eastern Turkey, killing four security personnel and injuring seven in Bitlis province. It comes after two car bombings targeted police stations, leaving at least six people dead and as many as 290 injured.

First, village guard Müslüm Yaldız was killed, and a soldier wounded in clashes with PKK militants in the village of Nazar, Hurriyet Daily News reports. Then, a hand-made explosive went off on a road near the village of Gayda, when a military vehicle was passing by. Three soldiers were killed and six injured in that attack.

Comment: As an integral part in NATO's original GLADIO network, and its "Plan B", which has been operational for the past 20 years, Turkey has been no stranger to false flags. The question is, what agenda do these latest bombings serve? Do they justify a further crackdown on the Kurds? Are they designed to further destabilize Turkey after the failed coup? Were they really carried out by the PKK? If so, have the Americans been increasing their support of certain Kurdish groups as a proxy force against Erdogan?

CERN 'researchers' stage mock satanic human sacrifice ritual

This chilling mysterious video shows a group of 'researchers' at the CERN Large Hadron Collider staging a chilling 'satanic human sacrifice' ritual.

The footage shows a group of cloaked men gathering in a courtyard around a statue at the facility in Geneva, Switzerland.

But CERN has declared that the video is fake, and claims that the ritual was simply researchers and scientists coming to work at the facility 'taking their sense of humour too far.'

The facility is home to the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator, known as the Large Hadron Collider.

Its aim is to allow physicists to test the predictions of different theories of particle physics.


Comment: It sure says a lot about these 'researchers' that they consider something like this a joke. Who were these people, and what exactly were they thinking?

UK government's brutal austerity measures have caused a 30% increase in homelessness

homeless woman england
Government austerity measures have increased homelessness in the UK by as much as 30 percent, according to a parliamentary committee.

A report by the Communities and Local Government Select Committee found that rough sleeping in England spiked to 3,569 between 2014 and autumn 2015. One quarter of those were sleeping on the streets of the capital.

Although the figures are damning, the committee said they do not include those who had not come forward for help and been registered as a result. The report termed these the "hidden homeless."

The investigation found that homelessness is on the rise due in part to the need for renters to pay landlords from their state benefits.

It was found that young people aged 18-21 are at particular risk of being made homeless.

Comment: Extreme poverty has been increasing for years in the UK, yet nothing changes because the ruling elites have no capacity to care about the most vulnerable:

Bankrupt Detroit targeting banks, businesses for $12mln+ in unpaid property taxes

Detroit is threatening banks and businesses with nearly 600 lawsuits over more than $12 million in unpaid property taxes. The measure, however, would not target individuals who have "fallen on tough times."

The city is seeking to recover roughly $20,000 from each bank or company and about $8,000 per parcel for 1,543 lots, both residential and commercial, as Detroit struggles to stabilize its post-bankruptcy state.

"For too long, there are those who chose not to pay what they owed in taxes, leaving everyone else to pay the price," said David Szymanski, Detroit's treasurer and deputy chief financial officer, in a statement Wednesday. "We are working to improve city services for our residents, and to do that - whether it's better police and fire protection, streetlights or better schools for our children - we need everyone who does business in this city to pay their fair share."

Comment: It's only when the going gets tough that measures like this are taken. How long before all the massive corporations and big banks are targeted and forced to face justice for illegal offshore dealings, money laundering, fraud, and crime in the billions of dollars? Don't hold your breath!

Teenage researcher finds most of Wisconsin's black neighborhoods are jails

Using racial dot maps for Wisconsin, a teenage researcher discovered half the state's black neighborhoods are "actually jail or prisons." The remaining neighborhoods are subsidized housing, homeless shelters and apartment complexes.

Conclusions deducible from the data confirmed decades of neglect and frustration that contributed to a violent uprising over the weekend, following a police shooting of a black man, according to Milwaukee residents.

Teenager Lew Blank began his research checking out the racial dot map that places one dot per person on a map colored by race. He compared his data with Google maps and other online resources to identify "certain areas where the majority of residents were African-American."

"As I researched, I began to find those isolated black neighborhoods in the middle of nowhere on these maps in almost every state," Blank told Madison365. "I stated matching them to Google Maps imagery. I checked he address. I double-checked, triple-checked."
