Woman suspects husband of cheating, stabs him to death with kitchen knife

A Florida woman woke her husband up with the same hand that would take his life, police say. Tyra Holmes, 26, found texts from other women on Michael Holmes’ cell phone before midnight Wednesday — proof, she thought, that he was cheating on her. She called one of the numbers: no response. They started to argue. She clutched a kitchen knife. At the top of the staircase, he tried to embrace her, presumably to put the feud to rest. But Tyra Holmes raised the blade to her ear and plunged it into his chest, reported the Orlando Sentinel. "You stabbed me," he said. The couple exchanged "I love you's." He died later in the hospital.

Man who 'purchased' a young boy in a foreign country and let other men abuse him for pornographic films is jailed for 40 years

An Australian man accused of making child pornography with a boy he purchased in a foreign country and allowing other men to sexually abuse the child was sentenced Friday in U.S. federal court in Indiana, where the videos were found downloaded on a home computer. The 42-year-old man, who investigators say used falsified documents to adopt the boy after bringing him to the U.S., was sentenced to 40 years in prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy charges involving child exploitation. The judge overseeing the case said she accepted the plea agreement only because the videos were too horrific to show a jury.

Texas warden who led 140 inmates to their deaths says it's just like watching someone go to sleep

Charles Thomas O'Reilly supported capital punishment when he oversaw his first Texas execution. And he still supported it after his 100th. In six years as warden of the Huntsville Unit, the prison that houses Texas' death chamber, O'Reilly supervised about 140 executions — more than any other warden in state history. Now retired, he reflected on his career this week as the nation's busiest death penalty state as the state executed its 500th inmate since resuming capital punishment in 1982. The 62-year-old said he has no regrets about a process he considered to be a relatively unemotional and small part of his job.

Disabled British woman, her invalid mother and father shot dead in Costa del Sol 'murder suicide': Bodies had 'been there for DAYS'

Three members of a British family have been found shot dead on the Costa Del Sol in a suspected murder-suicide. The bodies - believed to be those of a couple and their daughter in her 20s - were discovered by their landlord in a rented apartment in Mijas, near Fuengirola, this morning. Neighbours this evening named the dead man as Philip Wood and his daughter as Sophie, who was believed to have been disabled. Her mother - whose name is not yet known - was thought to have been ill for some time. Detectives are working on the theory that the husband killed his wife and daughter before turning the gun on himself. It is believed the family had financial problems and debt collectors had visited the £350,000 villa just days ago.

Grandmother, 85, who left patio doors open was 'battered to death with hammer by man who wanted to kill whoever was inside'

A man battered an 85-year-old grandmother to death with a lump hammer- because her patio doors were open, a court heard today. Jamie Boult, 25, entered the ground floor waterside flat of Delia Hughes in Southampton, Hampshire, and planned to 'kill whoever was in there', it is alleged. He rained down eight blows on the pensioner’s head from behind, knocking her to the ground with the heavy and bloodied weapon. She was left with a broken skull and severely damaged brain. Boult had hidden behind her bedroom door after tripping on the patio blinds, and pounced when the frail widow went to investigate the noise. Prosecutor William Mousley QC told Winchester Crown Court that Boult 'brought the hammer down hard from above his head, saying nothing'.

He added: 'After he had hit her once and she had fallen, he hit her again on the top/front of her head. She did not try to defend herself. 'He was trying to kill her.' Boult waited a few seconds to see if anybody else arrived, before ransacking the bedroom, it is claimed. He went through Mrs Hughes jewellery box, which was left upturned on her bed, and took bracelets and necklaces. They were later recovered from the home he shared with his mother. Boult even went into the kitchen of Mrs Hughes’ home during the attack, where he took a carton of orange juice to drink.

Raidh Janabi jailed for binding wife, shaving her head and beating her with garden hose

A man who shaved his wife's head and beat her with a garden hose in a jealous rage has been sentenced to three-and-a-half years in jail. Raidh Janabi, 53, from Endeavour Hills, pleaded guilty in the Victorian County Court to recklessly causing serious injury to his now ex-wife in 2011. In 2011 Janabi confronted his wife, believing she was having an affair with another man. Days later he subjected her to a 20 minute attack in which he bound her hands and feet with duct tape, roughly shaved her head, and beat her for 15 minutes with a garden hose. He also punched and choked and beat her with a shoe, leaving her black and blue. The court heard that when police showed Janabi photographs of his wife's bruising, he replied: "If a wife cheats on a husband, she can expect to have this done to her." "She pushed me too much and made me do it," he said.

Man gets five life sentences for killing family

A man was (today) sentenced to five life sentences after he admitted killing his wife and four stepchildren. A judge heard that former roofer and removal man Lee Ford garrotted Lesley Ford, 36, and her children Sarah Tranter, 17, Anne-Marie Tranter, 16, Steven Tranter, 14, and Craig Tranter, 13, at their isolated home at Carnkie, near Helston, Cornwall last August.

Fifteen years after escaping from a prison in Gloucestershire, a British killer has been captured in a small town in Queensland by local police who believe he used false names to commit elaborate frauds while roaming across Thailand, Malaysia, New Zealand and Australia.

Suicide bomb kills at least 13 worshippers in Pakistan

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (Reuters) - A suicide bombing at a Pakistani religious center killed at least 13 worshippers on Friday, the third major attack to test the new government since the Taliban vowed revenge for a U.S. drone strike that killed its deputy commander. The spate of violence has shattered a period of relative calm after the May election that returned former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to power, and underscores the challenges he will face in restoring stability in the country torn by militant violence. More than 60 people have been killed in less than a week from attacks that included suicide bombers targeting women students, a hospital and a funeral procession.

Daniel Marsh, 16, held in murder of elderly couple, was hailed as boy hero in 2009

A Northern California teen once praised as a hero is suspected of being a cold, heartless killer. Daniel William Marsh, 16, was charged with double homicide Tuesday for the April stabbing deaths of an elderly couple at their home in Davis, west of Sacramento. The slayings of Oliver Northup, 87, and his wife Claudia Maupin, 76, were "willful, deliberate and premeditated" and "manifested exceptional depravity," prosecutors said in a charging document. Marsh, who was 15 at the time, allegedly lay in wait until they returned home. He is accused of inflicting torture before finally taking their lives, reported The Sacramento Bee.

Bronx teacher arrested after raping 10-year-old student, deceiving parents

A scheming Bronx teacher raped a 10-year-old student after he tricked the girl’s family into thinking she was receiving an academic award, police sources said Wednesday. “He needs to die,” the girl’s devastated grandmother told the Daily News. Twisted Public School 386 teacher Anthony Criscuolo — the hulking brute accused of the sickening attack on his fifth-grade student — penned a bogus note to the victim’s parents on school letterhead announcing that their daughter had written an award-winning persuasive essay, police sources said.

The letter convinced the unsuspecting parents to allow the 40-year-old predator, who had already given the girl an iPod Touch and let her wear a diamond ring in his classroom, to take the girl to a sham award ceremony he claimed was Monday. But there were no awards, no ceremony, no pomp and no circumstance. Instead, the pathetic creep drove the victim to a school parking lot in Queens and raped her inside his silver Dodge Charger, which has tinted windows that hid the beastly attack, police sources said. The girl’s mother called cops Tuesday after she found a string of sexually illicit emails sent by Criscuolo, family said. One missive even said the perv had left his wife to be with the child. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/bronx-teacher-arrested-raping-10-year-old-student-article-1.1377579

Cyclist, 20, crushed to death by lorry with faulty indicator after it pulled across her path at busy junction

A young cyclist was crushed to death by a lorry with a faulty indicator when it pulled across her path at a busy junction, a coroner ruled. Paula Jurek, 20, was on her way to university when she was hit by a lorry as it made a left turn at a busy central London junction. Witnesses told St Pancras Coroner's Court yesterday that they didn't see the lorry driver indicate before making the turn. Immediately after the accident the lorry, driven by Barry Roe, was examined and found to have a loose bulb in one of its left side indicators. Road traffic collision investigator Paul Deneyes told the inquest: 'It wasn't that it was broken as such, it was that the bulb wasn't fitted correctly. 'It's possible that a cyclist travelling on the near side of the lorry may not have known it was making a left turn because they could not see the indicator.'

Alaska man feeds black bear barbecue meat, gets mauled for dessert

Beer, barbecue and black bears are never a good mix. An Alaska man learned that the hard way this weekend when he threw a hungry bear a piece of barbecued meat — only to be mauled by the same bear. "He'd been drinking," Alaska State Trooper spokeswoman Beth Ipsen told the Anchorage Daily News of the man. The unidentified man was at a picnic Saturday at Eklutna Lake when he took off on a bike ride through the picturesque recreation area north of Anchorage. When he stumbled upon a black bear, the man tossed it some meat. The bear gobbled it down, and when the man offered another piece, "That's when it kind of went ballistic," Ipsen told the newspaper. The drunken man, who police say could be charged with illegally feeding wildlife, was found by park rangers washing off at a campground. He'd been bloodied by a blow to his jaw and back.

Mother 'tried to kill her three-month-old baby because she thought the baby was trying to kill HER'

A mother accused of trying to kill her three-month-old baby said she only did it because she thought her daughter was trying to kill her. Anna Murphy, 35, from Tacoma, Washington, was arraigned yesterday on charges of second-degree child assault in Pierce County Superior Court. She pleaded not guilty. According to reports, Murphy told the baby's father when he came home on Sunday that she had thrown the baby down on the ground. He called 911 and told dispatchers she had deliberately dropped their daughter on the floor. He immediately called 911 after seeing blood on and inside the baby's mouth. When she was interviewed by officers, Murphy said her baby was trying to kill her so she threw her down in 'her first exorcism'. She also insisted she was trying to save her from 'traveling to another dimension'.

Girl's lemonade stand near Westboro Baptist Church raises thousands, controversy

A 5-year-old girl hoping to add a little sugar to the bitter Westboro Baptist Church set up a lemonade stand outside its front doors not to antagonize but to spread peace. What she got was harassment from its adult members calling her among names a "satanic liar" — as well as more than $16,000 raised toward anti-bullying programs from supporters across the U.S. "Jayden and I went out there to raise money for Planting Peace," her father, Jon Sink, told WBTV, referring to the nonprofit organization that owns the rainbow-painted Equality House where the two set up their stand Friday.

Baboon killed after escaping from British zoo

Don't these dicks use tranquilizers anymore...?

A violent morning of kidnappings, gang threats and torture ended in death when an escaped baboon was gunned down outside a British zoo. Gamekeepers shot the fugitive beast dead at 8:20 a.m. Sunday after he vaulted the perimeter fence at Knowsley Safari Park in Merseyside. It followed a brutal few hours which began when a vicious congress of 20 other baboons abducted his female mate. His efforts to save her from their clutches failed and his rivals cornered him. Fearing for his own life, he scaled an electric fence and bounded out of his enclosure. After two hours roaming the park, he made a final dash for freedom by climbing over its outside fence. Cops were called after a resident spotted the beast playing on swings in a park. A moving cordon was set up and the police chopper deployed. Officers then chased the animal into an industrial unit where it was shot dead by the park's gamekeeper, reports the Liverpool Echo.

Museo de la Medicina Mexicana

A scientific repository of goiters, boils and other gross ailments throughout Mexican history. Museo de la Medicina Mexicana isn’t the kind of museum that you visit to see tame paintings of water lilies. Instead, the museum—housed in the gentile 18th-century Palacio de la Escuela de Medicina—displays some of the most gruesome and graphic wax replicas imaginable: a face full of boils, a screaming man in the middle of a torturous, medieval curing and plenty of bacteria-eaten genitals.

Stalker gets death sentence for murdering 2 relatives of his victim

NAGASAKI — The Nagasaki District Court on Friday sentenced a man to death for murdering the mother and grandmother of a woman he had been stalking. Gota Tsutsui, 28, from Kuwana in Mie Prefecture, was convicted of stabbing to death Mitsuko Yamashita, 56, and her mother, Hisae Yamashita, 77, in the rear compartment of their minivan outside their home in Saikai, Nagasaki Prefecture, on Dec 16, 2011. The victims were the mother and grandmother of Tsutsui’s former girlfriend. Tsutsui’s lawyer had entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity, Fuji TV reported. The court heard that prior to the murders, Tsutsui sent 17 emails to the woman’s relatives threatening to kill them if they interfered with his efforts to get back together with his ex-girlfriend. The case gained notoriety when it was revealed that Chiba prefectural police failed to act on a complaint against the stalker and went off on a holiday. After the murders, the National Public Safety Commission reprimanded 20 police officers at Chiba police headquarters, and at Narashino police station, where the complaint was filed.
