  • Illegal Immigrant Out On Bail Arrested For Allegedly Leaving 6-Year-Old Son To Die In Car In 100-Degree Weather

    Illegal Immigrant Out On Bail Arrested For Allegedly Leaving 6-Year-Old Son To Die In Car In 100-Degree Weather

    A father in California is accused of leaving his 6-year-old son to die in a hot car during a heat wave. Officials say he is an illegal immigrant who was released on bail after a recent arrest, and they blame state sanctuary laws for the tragedy. 27-year-old Briant Reyes Estrada pleaded not guilty to murder and child abuse charges after his son died from heat-related injuries, per the New York Post

    Dan Dow, District Attorney said, “I am angry this boy died so unnecessarily. And I am even more incensed to learn this child’s death could have been prevented.” 

    The father is accused of leaving his son in a hot car at the Paso Robles Inn parking lot last Saturday when temperatures reached around 99 degrees. After some time, Reyes Estrada transported the boy to the hospital, but he was declared dead there. The father was apprehended and charged with murder and child harm. Officials revealed he was an illegal immigrant recently released from felony charges.

    “An illegal alien arrested on felony charges walks free then — two weeks later — allegedly causes the death of his 6-year-old son, who was allowed to die in a parked car on a hot day,” said US Attorney Bill Essayli on X. 

    “ICE issued a detainer to deport this alien, but he was released from jail because of California’s sanctuary state laws. Had California allowed local law enforcement to honor the immigration detainer against this defendant, this child would be alive today,” he continued. 

    He was apprehended for multiple charges, including misdemeanor false impersonation, forging a driver’s license, and two counts of embezzlement related to an incident on April 29. At that time, he was transported to the San Luis Obispo County Jail, said Dow.

  • Plane Passenger Pleads Guilty After Trying To Open Emergency Exit and Stabbing Flight Attendant

    Plane Passenger Pleads Guilty After Trying To Open Emergency Exit and Stabbing Flight Attendant

    A man from Massachusetts has confessed to a frightening “midair attack” where he attempted to open an airplane’s emergency exit and threatened to kill everyone on board. 34-year-old Francisco Severo Torres was restrained by passengers during a United Airlines flight in March 2023 after he attacked a flight attendant with a spoon, according to the New York Post

    Torres pleaded guilty to interfering with flight crew members using a dangerous weapon, according to Massachusetts US Attorney Leah Foley’s office. His sentencing is scheduled for July 17, where he could face life behind bars. About 45 minutes into the flight, an alarm sounded after a flight attendant saw someone messing with the emergency door.

    Torres was questioned about tampering with the door handle. The crew saw him as a threat and asked the captain to land quickly. Soon after, he stood up, claimed he would “take over this plane,” and attacked a flight attendant with a broken spoon, stabbing her three times “around her neck.” 

    Passengers tackled Torres, and the flight crew helped restrain him until the plane landed at Logan Airport. He later informed officials that he wanted to open the door to jump out, aware many would die. A judge found him mentally unfit for trial back in July 2023.

    Man With 20 Previous Arrests Busted Following Random Attack On 70-Year-Old In NYC Subway Station

    A man with 20 previous arrests, including hate crimes against two women, was apprehended for pushing a 70-year-old grandmother in a Midtown subway station. 37-year-old Sherlock Arana of the Bronx, allegedly attacked Janet Parvizyar, 70, on Monday morning while she was visiting friends in New York City, per the New York Post

    The woman informed The Post, “I don’t understand, why did they let them go like this? …I mean, they have to do something about this. He’s going to kill somebody.”

    Arana has a history of crime on the subway. Nearly ten years ago, he admitted to assaulting two women in Queens, believing they were Indian, though one was Bangladeshi. He allegedly yelled “I hate Indian people” during one of the attacks. He was sentenced to nine months for a hate crime assault but it’s unclear how long he actually served.

    Arana’s latest arrest occurred in 2023 for robbery, according to law enforcement. In this week’s incident, Parvizyar was walking in the underground path to the No. 6 train station when Arana reportedly pushed her against a wall, causing her to slam her head and fall. She was later transported to NYU Langone Medical Center and suffered from neck and head injuries. 

    Officials later recognized Arana at the Lexington Avenue-125th Street subway station around 6:45 a.m. Wednesday from a Wanted flyer amid an inspection. They discovered a knife on him. He was charged with second-degree assault and harassment, according to law enforcement sources.

  • NJ Couple Arrested After Being Accused Of Chaining Up Teen In Bathroom and Forcing Her To Live Inside Dog Crate

    NJ Couple Arrested After Being Accused Of Chaining Up Teen In Bathroom and Forcing Her To Live Inside Dog Crate

    A couple from New Jersey is accused of mistreating a teenage girl for seven years by making her live in a dog crate and chaining her in a bathroom. Prosecutors claim Brenda Spencer, 38, and Branndon Mosley, 41, abused the now-18-year-old girl physically, mentally, and sexually since 2018, according to the New York Post

    The victim escaped from the home on Thursday and reported that the abuse started when Spencer pulled her out of school in sixth grade. She resided in a dog crate for a year, then was locked in a bathroom and chained up, and only allowed outside during relative visits. When not in the bathroom, she stayed in a bare room with just a bucket for a toilet.

    The victim informed officials that her room had an alarm system to alert Spencer and Mosley if she tried to escape. She endured mental torture and was beaten and sexually abused by Mosley, a SEPTA train conductor, until she escaped last week with a neighbor’s assistance and reported her ordeal. Investigators discovered her living conditions to be very poor.

    Detectives also discovered a 13-year-old girl at the house who had been taken out of school years earlier by Spencer. Inside, officials located many dogs, chinchillas, and other animals. The couple was apprehended and charged with kidnapping, aggravated assault, and child endangerment, among other charges. Mosley faces five counts of sexual assault.

  • 22-Year-Old Childcare Worker On Trial For Being Caught On Camera Pinching Multiple Children and Grabbing One By Neck

    22-Year-Old Childcare Worker On Trial For Being Caught On Camera Pinching Multiple Children and Grabbing One By Neck

    Roksana Lecka, a 22-year-old childcare worker, faces trial for child cruelty after being caught on video mistreating children. She reportedly harmed 23 children at Riverside Nursery in South London between January and June 2024. In court on May 8, prosecutors presented footage showing her pinching a boy’s nose and body, while colleagues reported seeing the abuse too, per PEOPLE

    The footage allegedly showed her snatching a child by the neck. Staffer revealed that multiple children were harmed and had injuries by Lecka, including “pinch marks,” “red skin,” and “raised skin,” says reports from BBC and Sky News.

    Amid the court session, parents in the gallery were shocked as they watched the footage, according to Sky News. Prosecutor Tracy Ayling pointed out that Lecka appeared to check if other staff were watching while harming a child. Lecka was apprehended for child cruelty on June 5, 2024, confessing to two charges but refuting 21 others related to the Riverside Nursery school abuse.

    Lecka told Sky News, “I went into work that day and had a normal day. There were no accidents where any child seemed hurt. We have procedures for the handling of the children, which I adhered to. I am unaware how any injury to these children were caused.” 

    The prosecution mentioned in court that no concerns were raised when Lecka was employed at the childcare center for children aged 10 months to 2 years. Her references illustrated her as hardworking and good with kids. However, employees noticed odd behavior, and she was sent home once for acting dazed, alarming her staffers. Her trial is expected to last about five weeks.

    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.

  • 11 High School Lacrosse Players Turned Themselves In After Carrying Fake Armed Kidnapping Stunt On Several Teammates

    11 High School Lacrosse Players Turned Themselves In After Carrying Fake Armed Kidnapping Stunt On Several Teammates

    A group of high school lacrosse players in upstate New York was asked to turn themselves in this week related to a hazing incident or risk legal consequences. 11 players from Westhill High School in Syracuse came forward after it was reported that they staged a fake armed kidnapping involving at least five teammates on April 24. The District Attorney called it “hazing on steroids,” per WSYR, according to PEOPLE.  

    In a press conference, District Attorney Fitzpatrick said a student was taken to a remote area by a teammate, where other students wearing black attacked him, covering his head and leaving him in a trunk. Reports noted that there was a gun and knife involved. The victim was later taken home. 

    “I’ve seen the video tape of what happened to this young man, it is not a rite of passage, it is not a trivial matter,” District Attorney William Fitzpatrick said at a press conference. “I find it incomprehensible that in this day and age that somebody thought they could have gotten away with something like this.”

    Fitzpatrick said at least four other students avoided similar treatment. He gave the students 48 hours to come forward and face minor charges. If not, they would face serious adult charges. All 11 students surrendered within 24 hours.

    An attorney for one student, Tom Cerio, said his client is aware that their actions were wrong and acknowledges the “fear and distress” caused to the other students, per Good Morning America.

    “We must address the culture of the program, and the most appropriate way to do that is with a reset,” said Stephen Durham, Westhill Central School Superintendent. He noted that the season has been canceled for the varsity boys lacrosse team.
