  • Woman Arrested After Tracking Down Her Stolen Vehicle and Fatally Shooting Two Men Who Allegedly Stole Her Car, Reports Say 

    Woman Arrested After Tracking Down Her Stolen Vehicle and Fatally Shooting Two Men Who Allegedly Stole Her Car, Reports Say 

    A Missouri woman, Demesha Coleman, has been apprehended after tracking down her stolen vehicle and murdering two men outside of a gas station for allegedly stealing her car, reports Fox. The 35-year-old woman was charged with several counts including a count of assault and three counts of armed criminal action following the fatal shooting of 49-year-old Joseph Farrar and 19-year-old Darius Jackson. 

    Officials discovered the 49-year-old next to a gas pump as he had a gunshot wound in his torso, while the 19-year-old also suffered from a gunshot wound to the torso as he laid beside the vehicle. Another man was also shot in the head; however, he survived, reports the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. It’s unclear, which of the men, or if any of them actually stole the car. 

    On Wednesday evening, the woman approached a Hyundai Tucson at a St. Louis gas station with a man who carried a weapon, officials said after looking through surveillance footage. Coleman then opened the door of the vehicle with a gun and began to shoot. She informed officials that she went to the location to retrieve her vehicle that was stolen. Reports added that prior to this incident, she had no criminal record.

  • Parents Arrested After Officials Discovered 2-Year-Old Son Living In Their Vehicle With Drugs, Reptiles, and Cockroaches Crawling On Child

    Parents Arrested After Officials Discovered 2-Year-Old Son Living In Their Vehicle With Drugs, Reptiles, and Cockroaches Crawling On Child

    Parents in the Florida Keys have been arrested and are currently facing multiple charges after their son, 2, was discovered residing in their car in

    “squalid conditions.”

    The pair, 22-year-old Zachary Sousa Engren and 20-year-old Jillian Larae Meyers were apprehended following a traffic stop when officials found a young child in the vehicle that was filled with garbage, reptiles, insects in various boxes in the trunk as well as roaches that were crawling on the child. The vehicle was originally stopped after officials received reports of a reckless driver, according to FOX.

    Officials added that the 2-year-old reeked of human waste and the couple was unable to tell officials the last time the child ate. The parents were unable to explain why there weren’t any diapers in the vehicle. Engren, Meyers, and another passenger, who wasn’t charged, explained to officials that they were residing in their vehicle. An official said,

    “A strong odor of marijuana was emitting from the vehicle… Deputies found a .40-caliber Glock handgun under the passenger seat as well as multiple marijuana cigarettes and loose marijuana in the vehicle.”

    The male passenger explained that they were in the Florida Keys to compile insects and reptiles. The 2-year-old was removed from the car and police contacted the Florida Department of Children and Families. 

    The parents were taken to jail and arrested on several charges, which included, child abuse, possession of marijuana, possession of synthetic marijuana, and more.

  • Spain Approved Law To Allow Individuals Over 16 To Change Their Legal Gender Without Parental Or Medical Supervision 

    Spain Approved Law To Allow Individuals Over 16 To Change Their Legal Gender Without Parental Or Medical Supervision 


    On Thursday, Spain lawmakers reportedly passed a law that allows individuals over 16 years old to adjust their

    “legally registered gender”

    without parental or medical oversight, according to the New York Post. 

    The Post reports,

    “The legislation passed in Spain’s lower house of Parliament 188-150, replacing a previous law that required people to consult with a doctor before making the change on their government IDs.” 

    Underaged children are allowed to make adjustments to their ID with a judge’s approval and minors between the ages of 14 and 16 can make the change only if they’re chaperoned by a legal guardian or parent.

    In the past, Spanish individuals who are transgender needed to be diagnosed with gender dysphoria by multiple doctors. If you’re unaware, according to NHS,

    “Gender dysphoria is a term that describes a sense of unease that a person may have because of a mismatch between their biological sex and their gender identity.”

    Previously, some cases required individuals who wanted to change their legal gender to prove that they have been living as the gender they identified with for two years or show proof that they’ve been taking hormones. 

    Transgender rights groups celebrated the approved bill, as they said it showcases a

    “before and after”

    moment

    “in LGBT rights,”

    reports The Post. 

    BBC reported that members in Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s socialist party opposed the new law as they were nervous that it would deteriorate women’s rights. A former deputy prime minister Sanchez, Carmen Calvo said,

    “When gender is asserted over biological sex, it does not seem to me to be a step forward in a progressive direction; it seems to be a step backwards. The state has to provide answers for transgender people, but gender is neither voluntary nor optional.” 

    However, the Equality Minister of the Podemos Party, Irene Montero, believes the law ensures trans individuals’ rights 

     Montero said,

    “Trans women are women.” 

    The law was disapproved of by conservatives; however, it was passed after an 18-month parliamentary debate. 

    The bill is anticipated to officially become law once the senate passes it, which is predicted to happen by the end of the year. 

    Over a dozen countries have embraced equivalent gender identity lawmaking.

  • Former Landlord Slapped With Over 3 Dozen Sexual Charges After Demanding Sexual Favors From 30 Tenants In Exchange For Housing Aid

    Former Landlord Slapped With Over 3 Dozen Sexual Charges After Demanding Sexual Favors From 30 Tenants In Exchange For Housing Aid

    A landlord in New Jersey, 75-year-old Joseph Centanni, has been slapped with more than three dozen sex charges after demanding sexual acts and favors from 30 tenants, who have low income, in trade for housing aid, according to prosecutors. 

    The New York Post reports that the Union County Prosecutor’s Office says Centanni

    “was charged last week in a 42-count indictment that includes 23 counts of second-degree sexual assault and 19 counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact.” 

    Centanni possessed 18-low income properties in   Elizabeth, New Jersey. Between 2012 and 2022, the landlord bribed both men and women between the ages of 22 and 61 to commit unwanted sexual favors. 

    According to a statement,

    “the defendant allegedly solicited the sex acts from his victims as a quid pro quo, agreeing to offer them rent reductions, a delay in an eviction, or other forms of financial assistance in exchange.”

    The statement continued,

    “He also purportedly threatened tenants who hesitated or refused his advances with eviction or other retaliatory measures.” 

    The landlord was taken into custody back in June 2021; however, is currently

    “free on court-ordered pretrial monitoring pending the outcome of his case,”

    reports the New York Post.  One year ago, the Justice Department said he consented to pay $4.5 million to settle a Fair Housing Act lawsuit sought to safeguard tenants from discrimination and harassment. As part of the settlement, Centanni sold all of his properties as he has also been banned from managing and owning residential properties. Reports added that he did not admit to anything in the

    “settling lawsuit.” 

    The lawsuit, which was filed by the Department of Justice back in 2020 says, Centanni, subjected potential tenants as well as tenants to 

     “severe or pervasive sexual harassment.”

    He mandated oral sex from tenants as well as inappropriately touching them without their permission in trade for

    “rental assistance”

    to remain in their homes. 

    According to The Post, the $4.8 million he consented to pay will be distributed to the victims through a

    “compensation fund.”

    12-Year-Old Fatally Shot In Drive-By Shooting As She Slept In Her Family’s Home, Reports Say

    Sadly, a girl, 12, was fatally shot as she slept in her family’s home when 17 bullets began to strike the home in a reported drive-by shooting that occurred on Wednesday, according to officials. 

    The young girl, Audriana Pearson, was getting ready to celebrate her 13th birthday next month. She was struck just before 2 a.m. at the Alabama, Birmingham home. Sadly, she was declared deceased at the scene by firefighters, reports the New York Post. 

    Officials say three suspects have been arrested in connection to the tragic shooting, Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin informed Al.com. 

    “Pearson was all set to enjoy her Christmas break. But while she slept in her bed last night, her life was robbed from her. She was the victim of a drive-by, another one of our children stolen from us due to the intentional and reckless behavior of others,”

    the Mayor said in a tweet. 

    Mayor Woodfin added,

    “There is very little to be merry about in households where laughter has been silenced by gunfire, and that breaks my heart.” 

    Pearson was in sixth grade at Erwin Middle School and the principal, Dr. Angela Bush, described her as a

    “bright young lady with a big future…She was well-liked and enjoyed socializing with her friends and favorite teachers.” 

    Officials began investigating and arrested three unidentified suspects who they believed to be connected to the shooting. The three suspects were taken into custody following a car chase. Sgt Lawson said,  

    “We believe these people are connected to the homicide.” 

    “Children deserve to be safe at home with their families and enjoying the holiday season. They do not deserve to be gunned down while at home where they expect comfort and safety,”

    said a police statement in regard to the shooting.

    Eighteen Students and Three Teachers Injured After Two Pit Bulls Entered School Playground and Attacked Them During Recess 

    On Tuesday, students and teachers have been injured after two pit bulls managed to get onto a Missouri school playground amid recess. According to PEOPLE, three teachers and eighteen students were injured during the attack. 

    The 5th and 6th-grade students were in the Willard Intermediate South school yard when a pair of pit bulls entered the unfenced area and began to pounce on the victims. The teachers who tried to aid were then attacked. 

    Luckily, the Springfield News-Leader reported that the majority of the injuries were minimal. Three teachers and students were bitten and suffered from other injuries, which required medical attention. While other students were injured due to the chaos that came about as the students tried to run from the dogs. 

    Animal control informed KYTV that one dog failed to be vaccinated for rabies, while the owners couldn’t provide proof of rabies vaccination for the second dog. The dogs were surrendered by the owners and were later euthanized. 

    The day following the attack, the school did an indoor recess. Reports say many students returned to school the next day.

  • Woman Arrested After Allegedly Poisoning Veterinarian Husband’s Coffee With Animal Euthanasia Drugs

    Woman Arrested After Allegedly Poisoning Veterinarian Husband’s Coffee With Animal Euthanasia Drugs


    A woman in Madison, Wisconsin has been charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide after allegedly poisoning her veterinarian husband with animal euthanasia drugs on three separate occasions in July and August.

    In March of last year, Amanda and Gary Chapin were married. After the wedding, the bride forged the signature of one of her husband’s children on a power-of-attorney document and demanded that the groom amend his house dead so that she would get their home if he were to die. Less than three weeks later, she began poisoning his coffee, People reported.

    After the third alleged poisoning, the newlywed fell into a coma that lasted four days. Blood work showed that drugs the veterinarian would use to euthanize animals were in his system. After Mr. Chapin’s son discovered this, he filed a restraining order against his new stepmother on his incapacitated father’s behalf.

    The following month, Amanda Chapin violated the restraining order by emailing her husband a suicide note. She claimed to be distraught by the accusations and write that she planned to take her own life. “The only thing I am guilty of is loving you SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH,” she wrote. After being transported to a nearby hospital, Mrs. Chapin survived the attempt. Gary Chapin filed for divorce the next day.

    On December 28th, Amanda Chapin was arrested by the Lafayette County Sheriff’s Office and is being held on a $10,000 bond. She is scheduled to appear in court on January 12th.

    On August 29th, 2021, Lancaster, Pennsylvania woman Autumn Lynn Vossler reported her 5-year-old son, Harmon, missing. Many hours later, police discovered the boy’s body in the Susquehanna River. It was initially filed as an accidental death.

We never saw you- we snuck out of the house!”
