Strange Men

The unassuming town of Greensburg, Pa. (pop. 16,000, just east of Pittsburgh), was the site of two high-profile arrests recently. In July, James, 21, was suspected as the man responsible for several toe-kissing incidents, including one underneath a public library table, when he allegedly kissed the feet of a 12-year-old girl and asked if he could kiss her liver.

The crime seems gross and petty all at the same time. First off going around kissing strangers feet is bad enough but then adding a little girl into the mix is real sickening. What kind of punishment is suitable for this crime? I mean jail time seems to fit but for how long? He technically didn't commit rape or assault.

In September, Robert, 48, who cross-dresses as "Kelly," was charged with trespassing (and suspected of identity theft) after "Kelly" was found outside the girls' locker room at Greensburg Salem High School looking for the cheerleading coach. The 200-pound Robert said he merely wanted her to teach him some cheers. In Robert's apartment, police found cheerleader magazines and uniforms, pompoms, and photos of "Kelly" in cheerleader garb. [Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 7-16-04] [Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, 9-8-04]

This is a story basically on a man with a fetish taking it way too far. Which leaves the conclusion that the man obviously is not married. Considering the wife could take care of the fetish by dressing up for him. Now does he steal the uniforms from girls or buy them from somewhere is the question. The answer could lead or a better situation or worse one for him.

Strangling

Going against the grain of recent court decisions, the federal appeals court in New York ruled in August, 2-1, that when a man died of "autoerotic asphyxiation" (normally, strangling oneself almost to the point of passing out as a way of enhancing pleasure during masturbation, but in some cases, going too far), it was an "accident" rather than a self-inflicted injury. Thus, mom is entitled to death benefits under her son's life insurance policy (but would not have been for a self-inflicted injury). [New York Post, 8-13-04]

Techinically it is a self inflicted injury. It was a accident that he went too far but he knew what he was doing. Its not like he was going insane and decided to choke himself. He was in the right mind set but went to far. This case is hard to argue. For all we know he could have did it on purpose and the mom made up such a tale. I guess I'd have to know more of the background information.

More Money = More problems

Japanese police have made no arrests in connection with a flurry of 400 counterfeit 1,000-yen notes that keep turning up in vending machines in Saitama Prefecture, north of Tokyo; in each one, a real 1,000-yen note is cannibalized to supply a key part of the bogus note. Similarly, in Calgary, Alberta, in July, a man was fined about Cdn$800 for passing a set of counterfeit $20 bills that he made by removing the optical security devices from real $20 bills and inserting them onto his bogus ones (and discarding the remnants of the real bills, believing them then worthless, which police said was not true). [Reuters, 7-27-04] [Calgary Sun, 7-8-04]

Wow, Imagine how much more money he could have made if he kept the actual bills and not thrown them out. The way it sounds for every fake bill he makes he throws a real one away... Where is the profit? Maybe I am just reading it wrong but either way it is still a major crime. Using them in vending machines is clever though. No contact with a person making it easier to get away with.

Photocopy this

the night of Nov. 4, in Rapid City, S.D., two burglary suspects, in separate incidents, left ID behind.They had apparently removed their pants, for different reasons, leaving their wallets. (Evidence suggested that the reason they had removed their pants, after breaking into a law office, was to photocopy their genitals on the office copy machine.) [Rapid City Journal, 11-9-04]

A crime that was technically not worth commiting at all. I mean some do have their reasonings for being poor or what not....but this one was completely pointless. Well anyway first of all after reading the entire story it turns out they were actually arrested for burglary but for the evidence provided the charges were dropped. Guess it helps to be dunce after all.

Rights for Rapists?

North Carolina state Sen. Sam Ellis' bill to change a section of state law that actually gives an enormous right to rapists failed in committee this year, with the result that some rapists may inevitably go free. If a rape victim chooses to carry her baby, and then place it for adoption, state law requires that both parents agree to the adoption in writing, with no exception for babies conceived by rape. Thus, rapists might withhold their consent, thwarting the mother's wishes, unless she agrees not to press charges for the rape. According to a September Raleigh News and Observer story, at least three women have recently been in that situation. [Raleigh News and Observer, 9-6-04; Associated Press, 7-17-04]

I feel that rapists should have NO right or say in what happens with the concieved child. I feel that rapists are one of the worst kind of criminals in the world and should not be given rights over anyone's life. The rapists took advantage of another individual just for pleasure. Why should they have the right to decide how someone's life should be. They already created a situation that should never had happened. A wrong choice could be made all over again. Plus why should the victim be stuck with the child. Its not fair at all in any sense.

Various Excuses

1) A 27-year-old man, arrested in July after allegedly trying to rob a Bank of America in Enid, Okla., told police he merely intended to help repay the national debt.
- He would need a lot more then that to fix that problem

(2) A man, 18, charged with trespass in Tomah, Wis., in June after a woman awoke at night to find him holding her arm, told police that he had found the woman's keys in her apartment door and was just trying to return them.
-Could be true...But why would anyone go that far to return them. Also why was he so close to the house to see the keys?

(3) Man, 53, who was arrested for sexual assault on a mentally disabled woman in Madison, Wis., in June, explained the presence of his semen by claiming that he ejaculates when he sneezes and that, in fact, he was surprised only that his semen doesn't show up on many other patients, too. [KTUL-TV-AP, 8-3-04] [Tomah (Wis.) Monitor-Herald, 6-25-04] [Capital Times (Madison), 7-16-04]
- Makes no sense because if it were true then the semen would still remain in his pants unless ofcourse they were open...Which shouldn't have been. If so then there is a case against him.

Pre Handcuffed

Watertown, Mass., a playful Man, 23, accidentally locked handcuffs on his wrist at home in October, and figured they would know how to get them off at the local police station, but shortly after arrival, he was jailed because he had apparently forgotten there was an arrest warrant out against him. [Boston Herald, 10-15-04]

There is no way to give a opinion on a law or anything in this one since no law was broekn. But the criminal had commited one prior to these encounter so it fits in my blog. I don't understand how someone could forget there being a warrant out on them since they commited the crime and hid afterwards from charges. The law catches up to you in the end. Even if you need its help.

Corpse Customer

Two men and a woman, described in a Cape Times (Cape Town, South Africa) story as loan sharks, brought the corpse of Thozamile Patrick Apolis in a wheelchair into an FNB Provincial bank in June in an attempt to withdraw his pension (signing for it by "helping" Apolis move his hand across the paper), but a skeptical customer, who kept demanding that bank officials check for a pulse, scared off the three, who left the body behind. [Cape Times, 6-8-04]

This story seems like the kind you'd see in a comedy about mobsters. Amazing how it went so far. It took a customer to say something for the idea to back fire to. Was it a samrt choice to leave the body behind? There would be finger prints or any other DNA evidence linking back to them. Either way it would be hard to escape the scene with a person who was unable to move on their own. Besides that the dead body was identified and would be looked for. Whatever way this was suppossed to turn out any outcome would have been a bad one.

Stinks

A 36 year old employee a Golf Club in Kent, N.Y was arrested in September while sitting in a golf cart at night with a flashlight and a 20-gauge shotgun, after he had allegedly shot three skunks that were menacing the grounds. He was charged with various hunting violations and with carrying a loaded firearm in a moving vehicle. [Journal News (White Plains, N.Y.), 9-22-04]
The moving vehicle part really gets me. I see no where in the article that he had been driving it. It says he was sitting in the vehicle. Anyway the man seems to have been taking the skunk issue into his own hands and was determined to end it. Hunting is hunting either for fun or just to end a problem with the animals. Makes sense....Do you want someone killing your dog cause it went to the bathroom on their lawn? I don't think so.

Film police

Another law that soon died was the idea of having police being harmed in movies. I believe this law once existed in Wyoming. I did the research but due to my lack of not having my notes with me at the time do not technically know the exact location right now. It was once a law though.

It was alright to film the police being harmed but watching it was not allowed. I guess this case results in monkey see monkey do. If no one sees police get hurt then no one will want to go out and hurt the police. This case is just taking the issue at hand to far. Just because no one sees the movies where police get hurt doesn't mean the idea can't be brought up in different fashions. Such as the newspaper. You can obviously see that this law no longer exists. Just look at any action movie now adays. Even in child shows like the "Power Rangers" cops get hurt in some way.
