Cop Fired For Running Over Man

According to Raw Story

A Florida cop was fired on Friday amid an investigation into the death of 38-year-old Marlon Brown, who police say was run over by a squad car last month as he fled an officer.

Dashboard video taken from DeLand, Fla. Officer J.P. Harris’s car shows him pursuing Brown and running him down, according to Deland Police Chief Bill Ridgway. Ridgway spoke to reporters over the weekend, saying he felt compelled to take immediate action after watching the dashcam footage.

“This is a regrettable and tragic situation for everyone involved,” he said. “This decision was made in the best interests of the community, the city, and the department. It should be noted that the traffic accident involving Marlon Brown’s death is still under active investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol. Due to that ongoing investigation I am unable to comment further.”

Brown was killed on May 8 amid a pursuit that began when Harris tried to pull him over for not wearing a seat belt. Police later said that Brown was driving with a suspended license. He did not have any contraband in his vehicle.

“I can’t sleep and can’t eat and I have this vision in my head,” Laheia Olvera, who was in the car with Brown that day, told The Daytona Beach News-Journal. “From his neck to his waist, he was completely smashed. His head was swelled up.”

Brown’s ex-wife Krystal explained to Jacksonville’s News 4 that she’s not satisfied with Harris being terminated. “We actually want charges,” she said. “Just a termination is not good enough, but it’s a start.”

Damn, his head was all smashed up. They need to arrest him.

GTFOHWTBS: Vivica A. Fox Says Will Smith’s New Movie After Earth Is “Awesome”

Vivica A. Fox Says “After Earth” Movie Is Awesome

According to TMZ

Vivica A. Fox should’ve gotten busted this weekend … for excessive chugging of Will Smith flavored Kool-Aid — after actually claiming “After Earth” is a great movie.

Vivica looked our camera guy dead in the eye and said … unsolicited mind you … “I totally recommend for you guys to go check it out this weekend starring Will Smith, Jaden Smith. It’s awesome.”

Vivica couldn’t stop gushing.

It’s kind of hysterical considering ‘Earth’ has been universally panned by critics who’ve said things like, “Summer 2013 has its first bomb” … and, “Yes, it’s that bad.”

They say Will and Jada are swingers. Maybe Viv is just giving her lover props.

13-Year-Old Forced Sex Victim Ordered To Be Killed By Her Family After Fighting For Justice Against Attackers In Pakistan

So sad.

Forced Sex Victim Subject Of Documentary

According to Mail Online

The brave fight of a gang forced sex victim shunned by her rural Pakistani village for accusing her alleged attackers is now the subject of a heartbreaking documentary.

Kainat Soomro was labelled a ‘kari’, or ‘black virgin’, and her own family ordered to kill her in order to rid themselves of shame after she said she was attacked by four men as a 13-year-old in 2007.

But the teenager’s relatives refused to turn their back on Kainat, and vowed to support her as she took the extraordinary step of fighting for justice in defiance of moral laws that have been in place in Pakistan for centuries.

The years that have passed since Kainat’s nightmare ordeal have proved no less difficult, with her family forced out of their village, Dadu, amid threats of violence and murder.

Her father and one of her brothers were beaten, while an older brother disappeared for three months before being found murdered.

Kainat’s pursuit of the case through a legal system which places the burden of proof on the victim ended with her alleged attackers being acquitted.

Kainat and her family, who now live in a cramped two bedroom apartment in Karachi, say they have ‘lost everything’, a report on news.com.au said.

A documentary, called Outlawed in Pakistan, tells the story of Kainat’s fight for justice against the odds. The documentary, first unveiled at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, aired for the first time on U.S. television last week.

‘They told me I am not a real man,’ Kainat’s brother, Sabir, tells film-makers Habiba Nosheen and Hilke Schellmann.

‘[that] you failed to follow your tradition, you failed to kill your sister.’

Viewers watch as Kainat hires a lawyer, makes television appearances and appeals against court decisions.

But despite her persistence, the film’s narrator tells how the judge describes her accusations as ‘a product of her own fantasy’.

Following their acquittal, the men she accused wonder why she didn’t just stay home ‘and keep quiet’.

Outlawed in Pakistan shines a spotlight on the fight Kainat insists she will never give up, in spite of the seemingly insurmountable obstacles in her path.

What do you think needs to be done to curb violence against women in foreign countries?

Amanda Bynes Gets Nose Job

According to US Magazine

Amanda Bynes is seeking medical help — for more plastic surgery? After complaining about her appearance in a post-arrest tweet, the headline-making actress, 27, claimed to TMZ that she underwent a nose job on Saturday, June 1, in NYC. Telling TMZ that she had the surgery in Manhattan, the All That star explained: “I have no bandage on. It’s healing on its own like my doctor asked.”

(In a May 27 tweet following the alleged bong-throwing incident, Bynes had said, “I’m getting in shape and getting a nose job!”) The former child star says there are more surgeries in the works. “I’m getting one more in 3 weeks, they are short amazing surgeries done while I’m awake but under general anesthesia. It’s almost perfect.”

Bynes also announced the apparent surgery on, of course, her Twitter. “My dad is as ugly as RuPaul! So thankful I look nothing like you both!” she sniped. “I had nose surgery after my mug shots so my nose and I are gorgeous!”

RuPaul caught wind of the insult and tweeted a response. “Derogatory slurs are ALWAYS an outward projection of a person’s own poisonous self-loathing @AmandaBynes,” the drag superstar, 52, wrote.

She definitely has her priorities screwed up. Kudos to RuPaul for getting her together.


Epitome Of A Bad Mother: Mother Gives Birth To Baby Girl And Throws Her In The Dumpster “Like Common Household Trash”

Why throw babies in the garbage? SMH.

Mom Throws Baby In Trash

According to Mail Online

A woman gave birth to a baby girl, put her in a plastic bag and threw her in a dumpster ‘like common household trash’, a court heard today.

Shavaughn Robinson, from Richmond, Virginia, gave birth to the baby in the bathroom of an office building last week, put the baby in the toilet bin and covered it with paper towels.

She then allegedly tied up the bag and threw it in the dumpster behind the building.

Robinson worked in the building as a massage therapist and said she was having stomach problems before going to the bathroom.

The 27-year-old was seen cleaning up blood and acting suspiciously in a bathroom stall by a cleaning crew.

The janitor found the baby’s body that evening. She died of asphyxiation.

Robinson, who is charged with concealment of a dead body, told police after she was arrested: ‘I don’t want people thinking I killed that baby for nothing,’ according to The Times Dispatch.

It is unclear what she meant.

The baby’s death has been classified as a homicide and further charges are expected to be filed.

Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Janae Craddock asked that she be held without bond as she was considered a flight risk.

What a horrible way to die. Poor baby.


The Side Eye: Michael Douglas Says He Didn’t Get Throat Cancer From Pleasuring The Kitty Kat

Michael Douglas Corrects Throat Cancer Statement

According to People

When Michael Douglas mentioned in an interview that performing oral sex could be a risk factor for the type of throat cancer he had, his comments swept the Internet.

Now the Behind the Candelabra star is issuing a clarification.

“Michael Douglas did not say cunnilingus was the cause of his cancer,” his rep says in a statement. “It was discussed that oral sex is a suspected cause of certain oral cancers as doctors in the article point out but he did not say it was the specific cause of his personal cancer.”

Douglas, 68, announced in 2011 that he had beaten his cancer after going through radiation and chemotherapy to treat a tumor on the base of his tongue.

Over the weekend, in an interview with The Guardian, he was asked whether he regretted drinking and smoking since both can lead to oral cancers.

“No. Because without wanting to get too specific, this particular cancer is caused by HPV [human papillomavirus], which actually comes about from cunnilingus,” he was quoted as saying.

He added: “I did worry if the stress caused by my son’s incarceration didn’t help trigger it.” (His son Cameron pleaded guilty in 2011 to possessing drugs in his jail cell while serving a federal prison sentence for drug dealing.)

“But yeah, it’s a sexually transmitted disease that causes cancer,” the Oscar-winning actor continued. “And if you have it, cunnilingus is also the best cure for it,” Douglas said jokingly.

Yeah, we know you like the “Hello Kitty” Mike. No need to be ashamed.



Elsewhere In The World: 119 Workers Killed In Poultry Plant Fire In China

More and more of these “on the job” disasters are happening in these foreign countries. So sad.

119 Killed In Poultry Plant Fire In China

According to The NY Daily News

Fire raged through a poultry plant in northeastern China on Monday, trapping workers inside a cluttered slaughterhouse and killing at least 119 people, reports and officials said.

Several dozen people also were hurt in the blaze in Jilin province’s Mishazi township, which appeared to have been sparked by three early morning explosions, the official Xinhua News Agency said. The provincial fire department, on its microblog, attributed the blasts to a leak of ammonia, a gas that is kept pressurized as part of the cooling system in meat processing plants.

State broadcaster CCTV quoted unidentified workers as saying the fire broke out during a change of shifts and may have originated in a locker room at a time when about 350 workers were at the plant, owned by Jilin Baoyuanfeng Poultry Co.

It wasn’t clear how many workers had been accounted for and a provincial government media official, who refused to give his name, said he expected the death toll to rise further as more bodies were recovered from the charred building.

The plant’s ‘’complicated” interior, narrow exits and a locked front gate made escape difficult, Xinhua quoted survivors as saying.

Some employees raised the alarm shortly after a shift began at 6 a.m., and then the lights went out, boosting the level of panic as workers rushed to find an exit, employee Wang Fengya told Xinhua.

“When I finally ran out and looked back at the plant, I saw high flames,” Wang, 44, was quoted as saying. Xinhua said she and three other workers were sent to a hospital in the nearby provincial capital of Changchun.

Another worker quoted by Xinhua, 39-year-old Guo Yan, said the emergency exit at her workstation was blocked and she was knocked to the ground in the crush of workers seeking to escape through a side door.

“I could only crawl desperately forward,” Guo was quoted as saying. “I worked alongside an old lady and a young girl, but I don’t know if they survived or not.”

The disaster killed 119 people, and 54 people were being treated in hospitals, the provincial government said on its microblog. Calls to fire and rescue services rang unanswered and hospital administrators said they had no information about the injured.

By about noon, the fire had been mostly extinguished by about 500 firefighters and bodies were being recovered from the charred buildings. CCTV footage showed dark smoke billowing up from the prefabricated cement structures topped with corrugated iron roofs.

The fire highlighted the lax safety standards at many Chinese workplaces, despite efforts to compel improvements through regular inspections and fines.

Jason Yan, technical director in Beijing of the U.S. Grains Council, said safety considerations usually take a backseat in China to features designed to maximize production and energy efficiency.

“I’m sure they consider some aspects of safety design. However, I think safety, to me, is not the first priority in their design plan,” Yan said.

What more do you think needs to be done to ensure safety for workers in America and other countries?

Kim Kardashian Conflicted About How To Handle First Baby Pictures

Via RadarOnline

Kim Kardashian is just weeks away from giving birth to her first child with Kanye West, and this should be the happiest time of her life, but RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that she feels torn between Kanye’s wishes and those of her overbearing mother, Kris Jenner.

The 32-year-old mom-to-be will deliver her daughter in July and her momager Kris wants to control how she handles the birth announcement, selling the first pictures and maximizing her financial gains from the highly-anticipated birth, a source told RadarOnline.com.

“Kris has always been in charge of Kim’s life, starting with the sex tape, and now she wants to make sure she makes as much money as possible off the baby,” the source said. “Kim has always relied on her mom to give her the best advice, but now she’s struggling because Kanye wants to make sure that they don’t overexpose their baby.”

The power play between the two most important people in Kim’s life has taken its’ toll on the pregnant reality star, according to the source.

“Kim has been telling her friends that she’s really stressed about everything,” the source said. “She trusts Kris, and knows that she is only trying to help Kim, but she loves Kanye too and wants to be an equal partner with him rearing their daughter.”

As her pregnancy unfolds on Keeping Up With the Kardashians, the source said Kim is unsure about the future.

“For the first time in a long time, Kim just doesn’t know what to do — she feels stuck.”

All we’ll say is this, Kris Jenner will always be Kim’s mom, but she’s gotta wake up to Kanye every morning.

Jada Pinkett’s Mother Reveals Past Struggles With Drug Addiction

Hollyweird actress Jada Pinkett recently teamed up with her daughter Willow and mother Adrienne for a Redbook photo shoot, where Jada’s mother also revealed how she became addicted to drugs shortly after giving birth to Jada at a young age.

Flawless skin definitely runs in Jada Pinkett Smith’s family and its evidenced in the recent photo shoot the family took for Redbook.

The trio showed their strong bone structure and graceful smiles in the July issue, proving that beauty is prevalent at any age. The story also reveals how Jada’s mother, Adrienne Banfield Jones, was a former drug addict who struggled to raise Jada as a single mother.

Adrienne told her granddaughter, Willow: “I had mommy when I was very young and then I got addicted to drugs after mommy was born. It was a very difficult time for us growing up with her and Jada did not have the kind of life that you have now.”

Despite her mother’s mistakes, 40 year old Jada remains close with her mother: “I turned all of that into power. So I used those things as motivation.”

Kudos to mama Jada for overcoming her addiction and also to Jada for pushing through what sounds like a pretty rough childhood to become who she is today. We can also see that Jada definitely got it from her mama….Ms. Adrienne is a beautiful woman.

HS Cheerleader Arrested For Prostituting Fellow Teenage Classmate

Not only did this cheerleader pimp out the poor girl, she pocketed her hard-earned $60 too.

Via SF Gate:

A suburban Minneapolis high school cheerleader is accused of prostituting a younger student by creating an online ad and taking her to see potential customers, pocketing $60 in one case. Montia Marie Parker, 18, of Maple Grove, faces felony charges of sex trafficking and promoting prostitution. She is scheduled to appear in court June 12. Parker was a senior at Hopkins High School when she allegedly set up a Backpage.com ad for a 16-year-old, driving her to an apartment to have oral sex with a man, and taking the $60 the girl made. Authorities allege Parker and the girl drove to another home the next day, but left after the man refused oral sex. The girl’s mother called police after reading text messages between her daughter and Parker on the girl’s cellphone, the Star Tribune (http://bit.ly/18M0InW ) reported.

The 16-year-old had mentioned to others that she was trying to make some money. Parker sent the girl a Facebook message and text message about how she could make money having sex, requesting that the girl send her photos of herself, the charges allege. Parker posted the photos on Backpage.com, listing her phone number as the contact, the charges said. On March 5, the girls left school and went to an apartment building. When the younger girl returned to the car, she gave Parker the $60 and Parker deposited it into her own bank account, according to the complaint.

The next day, Parker pretended to be the girl’s mother and called the school to get her excused, the charges said. The girls left school and went to a home where the girl was directed to have sex with a man. She refused. “You’ll be fine — I didn’t drive up here for nothing, and eventually you will need to have sex,” Parker told the girl, according to the complaint. The girl told the man she wouldn’t have intercourse with him but would give him oral sex. The man refused and Parker drove the girl back to Hopkins High School, according to the complaint. The girl’s mother checked her daughter’s cellphone after noticing changes in her daughter’s behavior and hearing that she had an unexcused absence from school.

Minneapolis Lt. Kim Lund, president of the Minnesota Juvenile Officers’ Association, said authorities have noticed more cases within the last five years involving teen girls using Backpage.com. However, Lund said, it’s unusual to have a case involving a teen prostituting a fellow teen; most human trafficking cases involve adult men or women contacting teens. Parker admitted to police that she had created the ad and told them she received “a lot of calls” related to it, according to the complaint. She’s free on $50,000 bond.

Her parents must be proud.

Man Throws Dentures At Police During Arrest

An elderly man who became irate after a car accident blocked his driveway, preventing he and his wife from leaving for their dinner date is now dining behind bars after being arrested for his unruly behavior.

via Huffington Post

William Moody may have lived up to his name last Friday afternoon after his driveway was blocked.

He was allegedly so angry he ended up tossing his dentures at the cops.

Police say the incident started after there was a multi-vehicle crash near Moody’s home in North Strabane Township, and one passerby, a woman, stopped to help, Canon-McMillian Patch reported.

Unfortunately, the good samaritan parked in the driveway of 71-year-old Moody, boxing him and his wife in for 10 minutes just as they were going to dinner.

Moody was allegedly very angry, and screamed at both the police and the woman who was trying to help an accident victim. When one of the officers tried to talk to him, the suspect reportedly pushed and shoved the officer while cursing profanely.

When officers attempted to arrest him, they say he resisted, then faked a heart attack, only to start hitting the officers when they removed one handcuff in an effort to help, according to KDKA.

Moody was eventually taken to the local police station, where he allegedly continued fighting the police, even throwing his false teeth and watch at officers, WPXI-TV reported.

This guy spazzed all the way out. Who did they miss dinner with? Jesus??

A “Lil Positivity”: 53-Year-Old White Woman Credits Waka Flocka For Ending Her Unhappy Marriage And Saving Her Life

Wait… WHAT?!?

Woman Says Wacka Flocka Saved Her From Unhappy Marriage

Music transcends all race and ages. Here is an inspiring story of how one 53-year-old woman’s groupie love for the Waka Flocka Flame gave her the idea and courage to end her marriage. Writes social media communications advisor Dianne D (aka WebDiva423):

Via Deep Motion:

Now, my ex-husband and I had always had problems. We were on a typical bad relationship roller coaster; good times followed by bad times followed by good times and so on. Finally, the good times were just too far between and although the bad times subsided too, we fell into a very polite and civilized existence. That is, until Waka came to town.

My ex NEVER liked rap, my interest in rap & rap artists, or my blogging about rap. When I knew Waka was coming to Ft. Lauderdale, my husband basically said he wouldn’t prevent me from going (as if) but he didn’t want me to go. When I didn’t immediately agree not to go, things got worse. He basically implied that (and I’m paraphrasing) “many black men would be putting their bodies in close proximity to mine.” Also, “since I was so enamored of Waka, if Waka asked, I might go out clubbing with him and end up doing something I’d regret.”

She didn’t go out clubbing with Waka, but she did go to his show and posed for pictures with her black boo Flocka during his meet and greet with fans:

I had DM’d him a few times before the concert to tell him I was coming & would be the old white lady with reddish hair in the front. When I got my turn for the photo, I said, “Waka, you follow me on Twitter.” He replied, “Oh yeah, you said you was comin’!”

I was so thrilled! It really made my night, my week, my year, my decade. And when I got home, I realized that I’d gotten TWO photos with Waka; the first one was when I replied “Oh yes, Waka, that was me!” and was all googly-eyed and giggling like a schoolgirl. The second photo was the posed shot.

So, basically, the experience with my ex of the Waka concert made my mind up for me. It was time to make that break, and live my life without looking over my shoulder or being beholden to an immature man who didn’t appreciate me or the interesting turns my life might take. We’ve been divorced for a few months now. I couldn’t be happier.

waka

Sounds like this lady was just tired of dealing with her corny azz husband and wanted to try that dark meat out. We ain’t mad at you girl…
