    Michigan Father Arrested After Forcing His 11-Year-Old Daughter To Break Into Home With Him, Then Ditched Her When Homeowners’s Son Arrived

    A father from Michigan has been accused of making his 11-year-old daughter break into a house in Detroit; however, left her behind when things got sticky. 29-year-old Andre Stephon-Curtis Broadenax reportedly stole a man’s car in Dearborn and then drove to a nearby house being renovated on April 29, per the New York Post

    Reports say the man reportedly broke in and forced his daughter to join.

    According to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office, “The defendant forced his 11-year-old daughter to assist him with the home invasion.” 

    When the 75-year-old homeowner’s son entered the house, he surprised the father and daughter during their burglary. Broadenax quickly ran, leaving his daughter and the stolen car behind. Detroit officials eventually captured him on foot. Local resident David Bridges noted that the neighborhood is usually quiet and criticized the father’s actions.

    Bridge said, “As me being a father of eight kids, I can’t see me using none of my kids to actually break into a house or do anything to harm another person because it’s wrong.” 

    Prosecutors charged Broadenax with home invasion, larceny, concealing a vehicle, and encouraging his daughter to commit a crime.

  • 21-Year-Old New York Student Sentenced To A Year In Dubai Jail After Touching An Airport Security Officer’s Arm During a Strip Search

    21-Year-Old New York Student Sentenced To A Year In Dubai Jail After Touching An Airport Security Officer’s Arm During a Strip Search

    A New York City college student has been sentenced to one year in prison by the United Arab Emirates, reports the NY Post. Elizabeth Polanco De Los Santos, 21, who attends Lehman College in the Bronx, was accused of assaulting an airport security guard during a connecting flight in Dubai earlier this year.

    After being prohibited from leaving Dubai for nearly three months, she was later sentenced to a year in prison.

    “Elizabeth only intended to transit through Dubai for six hours but she’s been there for months on end and has lost $50,000 in expenses and lawyers costs,”

    said Detained in Dubai founder Radha Stirling. 

    In July, De Los Santos and a friend were traveling back to New York from Istanbul. Originally planning to transit through Paris, they decided to change their flight to have a layover in Dubai to explore the city.

    The trouble began at the airport security when the staff asked Los Santos to remove a waist compressor she needed to wear due to recent surgery. 

    Taken to a private booth, female staff members not only handled the compressor roughly, causing pain to her healing scars, according to her mother, but also refused to assist her in putting it back on.

    Frustrated, Los Santos called out to her friend for help, leaning past a security guard who was blocking her way.

    “I gently touched her arm to guide her out of the way, then desperately started crying to my friend for help,”

    she told Detained in Dubai.

    After a security guard filed a complaint, Los Santos was confined for hours and forced to sign a form in Arabic. Upon her attempt to leave, a travel ban was imposed due to the ongoing court case. After weeks in hotels, she managed to pay a 10,000 AED ($2,700 US) fine and depart following a judge’s permission. Unfortunately, Dubai prosecutors contested, leading to a one-year prison sentence on Monday.

    A Texas mother has been accused of sexually abusing her own 10-year-old daughter and making plans for a registered sex offender to join them in the abuse, reports the New York Post. 37-year-old Elizabeth Spaeth admitted to engaging in sexual activity with her underage daughter on numerous occasions, which led to her arrest. Her fiancé, Garrett Andrew Bailey, 35, was also charged with sexual abuse after Spaeth confessed to letting him abuse her daughter at least three different times. Additionally, registered sex offender 40-year-old Jarrod Kirkus was arrested after Spaeth reached out to him on Snapchat to arrange for him to abuse her daughter.

    The alarming case unfolded after officials responded to a call at an apartment complex and discovered Kirkus alone with the unnamed 10-year-old girl. He was taken into custody on a warrant for distribution of child pornography. Further investigation disclosed that there was no connection between Kirkus and the child, which led authorities to her mother. She admitted to facilitating the meeting between her daughter and Kirkus and confessed to having sex with her daughter numerous times.

According to an affidavit, Bailey started abusing the girl when she was just 8 years old. 

    Following Spaeth’s arrest, the 10-year-old girl and another child were taken from the residence. Spaeth and Bailey were charged with continuous sexual assault of a child amongst other charges, while Kirkus was charged with possession with intent to promote pornography.
