ACLU goes after Sheriff Joe over prisoner abortion

July 12, 2009

joearpaioACLU Targets Arpaio Over Abortion:

Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio has had a motion filed against him by the ACLU. They have sand in their collective vaginae over the fact that Sherrif Joe made a female prisoner pay for transportation so she could have an abortion.

If you’re not familiar with Joe Arpaio he runs one of the tightest jails in the country. If you commit a crime the last place you want to find yourself is Sheriff Joe’s jail. You can read about some of his policies here. As far as I’m concerned his jail is how prisons should be run.

Anyway I’m 100% behind Sheriff Joe on this. Why should the county taxpayers foot the bill for someone that’s a criminal to receive an abortion. They’re probably footing the bill for the abortion too. Sarah Poe as she’s being referred to should have thought of that before committing her crime, or opening her legs for that matter.

Tales from the Trailer: Pair caught getting it on in mobile meth lab

mobilemethReported sex in car leads to mobile meth lab:

Back seat romp leads to alleged meth lab:

Those fine upstanding young citizens are Timothy Overly, 26, and Candace Prewitt, 25. They were arrested in Bexar County, Texas after people reported a strange car in their neighborhood. That’s where police found the couple bumping uglies in a 1991 Olds 88. But wait, there’s more.

Also found in the car were a bunch of chemicals and materials used in the manufacturing of meth.

At those ages you would think that one of them would have their own place to do it. Then again if they’re making meth I’m guessing they’re not exactly successful in the working world.

For one they don’t say who they are collecting on behalf of. Secondly they never mentioned me by name fake or otherwise. It was not addressed to my actual e-mail address that I use in real life. And of course the address is phony.

I like how they put the information obtained will be used for solely collecting a debt. Somehow I doubt that.

Tales from the Trailer: Trio busted for public 3-way

conn3way

Three Torrington residents arrested for public sex:

In order they are Gregory Wanklin, 34, Mindy Lomento, 41, and David Perry, 23, all of Torrington, Connecticut. They were arrested for having a very public threesome in a wooded area between two streets.

Police said the parties were acting consensually and no allegations of sexual assault were made by Lomento or the two men.

When I was younger I used to think a 3-way was the ultimate goal but as I got older I realized how trashy they can be.

Keep it indoors people. Is that too much to ask?

Bradford, PA police get TASERs

taserBradford City Police have three tasers donated:

Police in the city of Bradford, Pennsylvania received new TASERs. That’s not really newsworth for the rest of us but what Mayor Tom Riel said about the TASERs kind of sums it all up.

“Bottom line, if people behave properly and don’t act like an animal, they won’t get tased and end up in a cage.”

Like I say if you’ve been Tased you probably deserved it.

morgansmithMan Accused of Posting Ad on Craigslist Using Another Man’s ID:

Normally I would post this under a craigslist crime blotter post but I’m a sucker for a funny mugshot. Anyway that’s Morgan Smith of Eau Claire, Wisc. He allegedly thought it would be funny if he posted an ad under men seeking men on craigslist using the identity of his girlfriend’s best make friend. That’ll win you points with the girlfriend.

Anyway when the friend started getting phone calls about the ad he went to police. Smith has been charged with identity theft.

You know his mugfshot reminds me of something but I just can’t put my finger on it. Oh wait. I remember now…

Sarah Palin steps down

sarahpalinPalin stepping down this month:

I was a big fan of Sarah Palin during the election. Now not so much. She lost points with me during the Letterman debacle. I mean if she can’t tell who that joke was obviously aimed at then she needs to get a clue.

If the Republican party has any hopes of winning in 2012 they need to find another Reagan.

Flour for my porkchops

taserMan busted: Powder was flour for pork chops:

Calvin Wallace was arrested in Boynton Beach, Florida for having 54.3 grams of MDMA. When asked by police Wallace said it was “flour for my porkchops.”

However it’s not because of his pork chops that he’s on these pages. This is why…

An officer pulled out his stun gun and ordered Wallace to put his hands outside the car, but he cursed at officers instead. Wallace resisted some more, and was stunned three times before officers could cuff him.

That’ll cook his pork chops.

Jacksonville air conditioning contractor busted over installing stolen units:

Contractor Kimble Starr Butler of Jacksonville, Fla. who ran a business called K and R Cooling advertised on craigslist promising low rates. The reason his rates were so low is because he was allegedly installing stolen air conditioners.

Shots Fired After Craigslist Meeting:

In Overland Park, Kansas 21-year-old Brian Hurt, who may or may not have been driver/security for a craigslist prostitute, was arrested for firing shots into the apartment of a man his female partner just visited. Again this shows that prostitution is still happening on craigslist, not to mention that getting a hooker is inherently risky in more ways than one.

Tales from the Trailer: Burmese Python squeezes 2-year-old to death

burmesepythonOfficials: Escaped pet python strangled Fla. child:

Only second to the pit bull in terms of trailer dwelling pets is the snake. Usually some kind of python or constrictor.

In this case it was an 8-foot Burmese Python that escaped from it’s impenetrable confinement of a plastic bag and a terrarium and squeezed a 2-year-old Oxnard, Florida girl to death.

The snake’s owner is 32-year-old Charles Jason Darnell, the girl’s mother’s boyfriend. Of course he did not have the proper permit to own the python. So far Darnell has only been charged with owning a snake without a permit.

I’m sorry but the only people I’ve ever known that owned snakes like pythons and constrictors are guys with mullets, 70’s mustaches and revoked driving privileges.

These animals are known to kill and eat prey that is many times their own size. If you have small kids owning an 8-foot python is not a good idea. If you do own one get rid of it and not just by releasing it into the wild.

News of Doom: Mass. man accused of injecting 6-year-old in order to rape her

Massachusetts

Police: Would-be rapist bound, injected girl:

Reason to Blow Up the World

jshineHINGHAM, Mass. – A 6-year-old girl fled an apartment wearing leg shackles after her friend’s father lured her with a promise to show her some pet gerbils, then bound her with tape and chains, injected her with an unknown substance and tried to rape her, authorities said Monday.

Justin Shine, 26, was charged with kidnapping, attempted rape, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon — a hypodermic needle — and resisting arrest.

Assistant District Attorney Sharon Donatelle said the girl told police that Shine — who lived in the same apartment building — saw her outside and yelled out his window, inviting her to see some gerbils. The girl knew Shine as the father of a little boy she often played with in the apartment complex.

Once inside, Shine showed the girl the family’s gerbils, but then bound her hands with tape, put tape over her mouth, wrapped her arms with a “fishnet-type material,” and shackled her ankles with a chain , Donatelle said.

The girl told police that Shine injected her in the hip with a syringe and that she felt “somewhat sleepy” afterward. Donatelle said the syringe is being tested to find out what was in it.

The girl said that after she heard knocking on doors, Shine got a knife and cut the tape off her hands. She said she was crying and Shine told her to “shut up.”

The girl fled the apartment as police were going door-to-door looking for her. A man at the complex found her and carried her to police. Her feet were still shackled together and her arms and legs had blood on them. Police later determined that the blood on the girl was Shine’s blood.

Police said they arrested Shine after finding him in a bedroom, covered with blood. He had an open wound on his left wrist that was bleeding.

They found the girl’s pink bicycle and Barbie bike helmet in his apartment.

Donatelle said that while Shine was being treated at the hospital, he told a state trooper that he had lured the girl into his apartment, bound her, and admitted “he had plans to engage in some sexual activity,” but had “second thoughts.”

He said he had injected himself with cocaine, but did not admit injecting the girl with anything. He told the trooper it may have been by accident, Donatelle said.

What a depraved lunatic. I hope that shiner is from police. If it is I hope the cop that gave it to him gets a medal.

One point for abducting the girl, another for binding her, one more for injecting her, another for wanting to rape her, one more for trying to take the coward’s way out (I bet he went across the street) and one last point for being a cokehead. That’s 6.

Two arrested for backpage child prostitution

Man Arrested For Pimping Of A Child In Aurora:

Police in Aurora, Colorado arrested two men in connection with a child being pimped out on backpage.

Backpage is a craigslist competitor that is owned by Village Voice Media that has not come under the havy scrutiny that craigslist has. It should because it’s where all the craigslist hookers and pimps are going now to advertise their wares.

Anyway police arrested 24-year-old Bobby James Doss for pimping out a runaway underage girl from Texas on backpage. Also arrested was 37-year-old Brett Alan Coffman who was trying to use the girl’s services.

Now let’s wait and see if the politicians will follow suit along with the pimps and hookers to backpage. Something tells me it will take another case like the murder of Julissa Brisman for that to happen.
