BC teens being pimped out on craigslist

North Vancouver teens advertising sex for sale on Craigslist: RCMP:

The RCMP is reporting that girls as young as 16 from North Vancouver, British Columbia are being pimped out on craigslist. Some are prostituting themselves while others are being pimped out by guys in their 20s. Some are even advertising special rates for sex without a condom.

I can hear your questions already. But Trench, didn’t craigslist crack down on ads like this? They did but only in the U.S. In Canada it’s still wide open. I get the feeling however that if the RCMP keeps digging that may change in Canada.

Psycho For Love: Wendell Arnold ran over his wife with his SUV

Published on June 30, 2009 by Trench Reynolds in Uncategorized. 0 Comments Tags: , .

Wendell Arnold, the hunky guy you see right here, is such a great husband! Why, he got in a fight with his wife the other day while they were in the car and so he assaulted her. Well, being the smart woman she is, she decided to get out of the car as she was not going to take his shit. Well, apparently he did not like this and decided to run her over. Of course, he came up behind her and did this, so of course, she went flying thru the air and then he ran over her arm as well. After witnesses called 911, he put her back in the SUV and went to a parking lot where police later found the vehicle. His wife is in the hospital in serious condition. And where is our Prince Charming? Right where he belongs, in jail, and will be for a while!

Psycho For Love: Albert Parker Stabs Girlfriend With Branch Cutter

Published on June 30, 2009 by Trench Reynolds in Uncategorized. 0 Comments Tags: , , , .

Well, people are getting more creative these days, I’m telling you! Albert Parker has been charged with attempted murder for stabbing his girlfriend with a branch cutter (yes, the one used to trim trees). He also beat the hell out of her, as she has a lot of bruising and lacerations from the beating as well. She is in the hospital in serious, but stable condition after being stabbed. And the wonderful boyfriend was already on parole for another domestic violence incident (I do not know if she was the victim in that one as well). I sure hope that this girlfriend realizes that it will not get any better with him. Drop kick his ass out into the street. Although, since he is in jail and probably will be for a while, I guess that is kinda moot now, huh?

Police investigating Craigslist ad offering house full of goodies:

Police in San Antonio, Texas are investigating yet another ‘take everything in my house’ craigslist ad that turned out to be fake. Luckily the homeowners had an alarm system and nothing was taken. For the love of God people, just because something is posted on craigslist it doesn’t automatically make it true. Morons.

Craigslist scammers threaten local couple who won’t play along:

A couple from Plymouth, California have been threatened repeatedly by a fake check scammer that goes by the name of Leslie Morgan. Read the article. It’s amazing the lengths one scammer will go to.

Job seekers victimized through Craigslist.org:

A job scam is going on where someone is posting an ad on craigslist for a company called Financial Planning Association of Nevada. The company is real but the ads aren’t. Applicants are asked to fill out information for a credit check which of course is probably to steal your personal information.

North Andover man arrested in Craigslist sting:

The first paragraph of this article is great…

Jonathan Pickering thought he was going to meet a 13-year-old boy he contacted through the Craigslist Internet site. Instead, he was greeted by a burly police officer, police said.

That is awesome.

Garden City Police Use Craigslist to Make Arrest:

Police in Garden City, Idaho arrested Tracy Monday, aka Stormy, on charges of running an illegal massage business. She advertised on craigslist for full body rubs which according to police may have also included also included sex.

No offense, but I wouldn’t take a full body anything from her even if she paid me.

Tales from the Trailer: Woman craps on mom during fight

Mother, daughter charged with battery:

37-year-old Destinie Rechelle Duvall and her mother, 62-year-old Patricia Ann Hacker, were both arrested in Bossier Parish, Louisiana for getting into an altercation with each other. But this wasn’t just any altercation.

The article doesn’t say where the altercation took place or how it started. However we do know at one point the daughter kicked her mother in the head causing the mother to lose consciousness. While mom was out cold dear old daughter took it upon herself to defecate on her own mother’s back. Let’s pause there for a second and let that mental image set into your mind.

Who the hell thinks of something like that? If I was in a life or death struggle with my most hated enemy I would not be thinking of taking a crap on them.

There was also biting and getting hit with a frying pan involved but really that’s small potatoes compared to crapping on your mom.

Thanks to Louisiana Lori for the tip.

Psycho for Love: Woman shoots boyfriend on day of her dad’s funeral

Woman accused of shooting, killing boyfriend on day of father’s funeral:

51-year-old Barbara Johnson of Carter County, MO is accused of shooting her boyfriend, 67-year-old Harvey Cookston. According to police the pair had an argument because Cookston did not want to attend the funeral of Johnson’s father. Rather than just going to the funeral herself and giving her boyfriend hell later it’s alleged that Johnson shot and killed Mr. Cookston. So I’m guessing she didn’t make it to the funeral either.

Ironically Mr. Cookston was a gunsmith who gave Johnson the .22 she used to shoot him. That is what I like to call the Phil Hartman lapse. Never give your significant other a gun and if you do you really shouldn’t piss them off. Now I’m not saying that Mr. Cookston was responsible for his own death but sometimes guns and relationships don’t mix.

Furniture store used Iran twitter tags to promote store

Habitat sorry for Iran Tweeting:

While it’s not a crime per se it is a scummy business practice so I’m going to allow it. Plus it did break one of the unwritten laws of twitter.

Anyway, UK furniture store Habitat got caught using twitter hashtags for the ongoing situation in Iran to hep promote the store. Now allow me to translate.

On twitter some people use what are called hashtags on their posts. Hashtags are keywords people can use so others who are looking for twitter posts on that subject can find them. For instance if you were tweeting about the situation in Iran you would put #iran at the end of your tweet.

What Habitat is accused of doing is using hashtags about Iran at the end of their tweets but the tweets were about promoting their stores.

One of the controversial messages – called tweets – which appeared before being removed by Habitat, read: HabitatUK: #MOUSAVI Join the database for free to win a £1,000 gift card.

Habitat has removed the offending tweets but has not said who was responsible.

Dunbar Village case update

Confession allowed in Dunbar rape case:

Dunbar Village rape case suspects ordered to give fingerprints:

For those of you unfamiliar with this story back in June of 2007 a group of youths broke into the Dunbar Village apartment of a woman and her son in West Palm Beach, Florida. The assailants not only gang raped the woman but they forced her to have sex with her own young son. They then threw cleaning fluids on the woman to try and hide DNA evidence. It still stands as one of if not the worst News of Doom story I’ve ever posted.

Anyway the most recent update is that suspects Avion Lawson, 16, Jakaris Taylor, 17, and Tommy Poindexter, 20, have been ordered to have their finger and palm prints taken and to submit handwriting samples. I can understand the handwriting samples but shouldn’t they have their prints already? If someone in law enforcement wants to answer that question for me please feel free.

Also the confession of Lawson has been ruled admissible. His defense attorney argued that he invoked his right to remain silent prior to confessing but the judge ruled that Lawson did not invoke his right. However parts of a confession given by Taylor were ruled inadmissible with the judge saying that Taylor did invoke his right.

Confessions or not I think the evidence against them is rather overwhelming.
