Named by Danish newspaper BT as 63-year-old Peter Frederiksen, it was revealed the suspect had openly discussed practising female genital mutilation with a journalist in the past.
Authorities in South Africa detain a Danish gun store owner after 21 pieces of female genitals stored in a home freezer are discovered

A Danish man appeared in a South African court for storing 21 pieces of female genitalia in plastic bags in his freezer.

He was charged with sexual assault, intimidation and breaking South Africa's medical laws. He did not enter a plea. Police said the man will remain in custody until his next court appearance.

Crowds jeered the man - with some shouting "Satan!" - as police escorted him from the courtroom. The man was identified in court as being 63 although police said earlier that he was 58.

The man's wife alerted authorities about the gruesome storage of body parts and police are investigating the extent of her involvement, said the investigating officer. Earlier, police said one of the man's victims reported him to police.

"It comes down to mutilation of private parts of a woman, cut out and kept as trophies," said Warrant Officer Lynda Steyn.

An Oklahoma mother is furious after her son's preschool teacher forced him to write with his right hand because she believes left-handers are "sinister."

Alisha Sands said her 4-year-old son, Zayde, is just learning to read and write in his first year at Oakes Elementary in Okemah, reported KFOR-TV.

She said her son is left-handed, just like she is, but he came home from school last week and struggled to complete some homework using his right hand — so she asked him why.

"I just asked, 'Is there anything his teachers ever asked about his hands?'" she told the TV station. "And he raises (the left one) one and says, 'This one's bad.'"

A Miami cop was suspended for only 20 hours after being found guilty of misconduct for handcuffing a kindergarten student to "teach him a lesson."

The incident took place in February after the 5-year-old got into an argument with another student over a toy. Acting totally, well, childish, the kindergartener bit the other student.

The boy was brought to the guidance counselor's office to wait for his father to pick him up, where he continued to act like the child that he is, and as if "everything was a joke."

At this point, Officer Paul Gourrier of the Miami Police Department reportedly grabbed the child's ear and handcuffed him behind his back, telling him "Let me show you. I'm going to show you what happens so that you can understand."

Comment: The cop should have been fired. What kind of bully treats a 5 year old that way? An adult who understands that children can behave this way wouldn't need to hurt the child. The cop is apparently still a child.

Residents in Asheville, North Carolina are calling for local businesses to stop working with a local coffee shop after the owners were revealed to be behind a podcast and blog devoted to stories of their romantic "conquests," Jezebel reported.

Nearly 3,700 people have signed an online petition against Waking Life Espresso and its owners, Jacob Owens (pictured above) and Jared Rutledge.

"Our town does not support such people," the petition read. "This has been shown in the outcry of rage and hurt we have seen and by the people who gathered outside their place of business to protest."

The petition, which is asking businesses to stop stocking the duo's coffee, was posted after Rutledge and Owens were exposed as the hosts of the "Holistic Game" podcast. In one episode, Owens boasts about having sex in a hospital with a woman he describes as "the two-vagina'd beast."

Ahmed Mohamed — the Texas 14-year-old who was arrested for bringing a homemade digital clock to class — has withdrawn from MacArthur High School.

According to the Guardian, Mohamed's father, Mohamed El-Hassan Mohamed, has withdrawn all of his children from their schools in the Irving Independent School District in the wake of the scandal, saying that the family has yet to decide where the children will be educated.

Ahmed Mohamed was suspended last week and taken away from school in handcuffs after teachers say they became concerned and upset that the clock the boy built could be a bomb.

School officials called police, who arrested Ahmed even after he repeatedly explained to them that the device was a simple clock and not a bomb.

In a tequila-fueled rage, a Sunrise man is accused of killing and disemboweling his girlfriend because she uttered her ex-husband's name twice during sex.

Fidel Lopez called 911 about 3:39 a.m. Sunday and told the operator his girlfriend Maria Nemeth was having trouble breathing and was going to die, according to the arrest report filed in the case.

Sunrise police found Lopez crying for help next to Nemeth's naked body on the floor of the bathroom with blood and body tissue around the apartment that Nemeth, 31, and Lopez, 24, had shared for about one week in the 1600 block of Northwest 128th Drive, the report stated.

The bathroom door was ripped off its hinges and there was blood and tissue in the bathroom, a bedroom closet, and smeared on walls and doors. There were several holes in the walls and a shattered sliding glass door, police said.

A 54-year-old worker has been killed in an explosion at a chemical plant in Linz. The man, who worked for Nufarm, was working on a nitrogen tank which exploded.

The man, from Peilstein in Mühlviertel, was standing on a stairway next to the elevated tank at 5:30am, when the container exploded. Officials at Nufarm said that pressure had built up inside the tank, and they are trying to find out why.

Police said the blast knocked the man off the steps and threw him ten metres in the air. Colleagues rushed to the severely injured man's aid and administered first aid but were unable to resuscitate him. A team of paramedics declared him dead at the scene.

Experts from the company are working with police to determine the cause of the explosion. The man's relatives and colleagues are being cared for by a crisis intervention team.

In a statement, Nufarm said that all safety regulations had been complied with, and that at no time had there been a known risk to any employees. No damage was caused to the plant's technical facilities, which was running as normal on Tuesday.

Comment: There seems to have been an increase in the number of explosions and fires at chemical plants around the world in recent months, some of which are included here:

Ridiculous: Teen prosecuted as adult over nude pictures of himself on phone

A teenage boy in North Carolina has been prosecuted for having nude pictures of himself on his own mobile phone. The young man, who is now 17 but was 16 at the time the photos were discovered, had to strike a plea deal to avoid potentially going to jail and being registered as a sex offender.

Experts condemned the case as ludicrous. The boy was, however, punished by the courts, and had to agree to be subject to warrantless searches by law enforcement for a year, in addition to other penalties.

The young man was also named in the media and suffered a suspension as quarterback of his high school football team while the case was being resolved.

Cormega Copening, of Fayetteville, North Carolina, was prosecuted as an adult under federal child pornography felony laws, for sexually exploiting a minor. The minor was himself.


Comment: How is it possible to sexually exploit yourself? We are truly living in an idiocracy.


"It's dysfunctional to be charged with possession of your own image," said Justin Patchin, a professor of criminal justice at the University of Wisconsin and co-founder of the research website cyberbullying.org.

Poverty is neither a lack of self-control nor a character defect

When considering poverty, our national conversation tends to overlook systemic causes. Instead, we often blame the poor for their poverty. Commentators echo the claim that people are poor because they have bad self-control and therefore make nearsighted choices. But psychology research says the opposite might be the case: poverty makes it hard for people to care about the future and forces them to live in the present.

As a researcher who studies goals and motivation, I wanted to know how self-control works and if science can help us get better at it. Poverty seemed like a good place to start, because greater self-control could be especially helpful there. In fact, the federal Administration for Children and Families is adding character-skills training to its programs in efforts to improve self-control among children.

EU refugee relocation plan: Softer stance emerges on eve of emergency meeting

Watered down plan to relocate 120,000 refugees drops binding quotas and leaves Hungary out of scheme.

EU ministers are considering a watered down plan to relocate 120,000 refugees throughout the bloc, which drops binding quotas and leaves Hungary out of the scheme, sources said Monday.

The softer stance emerged on the eve of a new emergency meeting in Brussels of the 28 EU interior ministers, who last week failed to agree on a European Commission plan for compulsory quotas for refugees fleeing war in Syria, Afghanistan and elsewhere.

"Whether voluntary or mandatory, that is an artificial debate," a source from Luxembourg, which holds the rotating EU presidency, told reporters, despite Commission officials insisting that they still want compulsory quotas.

Another Luxembourg source said the word "mandatory" will not appear in the draft document that will go before the ministers when they meet Tuesday afternoon to discuss how many refugees each country will take.

Hopes of a unanimous deal last week collapsed in the face of opposition from Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Romania, officials said.

With populist parties exploiting anti-immigrant sentiment, many eastern countries argued that a Europe-wide relocation plan made little sense for refugees who preferred to settle in wealthier northern European nations.

Comment: The EU has a lot to sort out, the privilege of participation. Whether active or passive - humanitarianism must speak louder.
