  • Florida Police Arrest 11-Year-Old Boy For Falsely Reporting School Shooting Because He ‘Wanted To Go Home Early’

    Florida Police Arrest 11-Year-Old Boy For Falsely Reporting School Shooting Because He ‘Wanted To Go Home Early’

    An 11-year-old in Florida was arrested for making a fake school shooting report to leave school early, reports Insider. 

    According to the Marion County Sheriff’s Office, the boy used his friend’s unattended cell phone to call 911. The kid also expressed to his friend before making the call that he

    “wanted to go home early,”

    police said. 

    The police charged him with making false reports, using a communication device for a felony, disrupting a school function, and misusing the 911 system. It is unknown whether the boy has legal representation at this time. 

    In a 911 audio released by police, the boy can be heard saying;

    “Help, there is a school shooter walking through the hallway.”

    During the call with the 911 operator, the boy identified himself as being in building two of Marion Oaks School before abruptly ending the call with a cryptic message. The entire audio recording lasted 43 seconds. 

    Upon receiving the call at 9:39 a.m. on December 5, the police swiftly responded to the school with a SWAT team, aviation unit, and K-9s, as stated in their official statement. Students and teachers were The evacuated while police conducted their search. 

    “This student put fear into his fellow students, staff, and parents,”

    Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods said.

    “For what? A prank? Because you wanted to go home?”

    Under Florida law, individuals found guilty of making false reports are obligated to pay restitution for the cost of the law enforcement response.

    “In this case, (it) will equal hundreds upon hundreds of man-hours,”

    Woods said.

    “This young man is going to need to mow a lot of lawns to pay that bill.”

  • New York Hospital Under Fire After Performing Weight Loss Surgeries On Prisoners, Resulting In Claims Of Malnourishment and Complications

    New York Hospital Under Fire After Performing Weight Loss Surgeries On Prisoners, Resulting In Claims Of Malnourishment and Complications

    Bellevue Hospital, a renowned public hospital in New York, has come under scrutiny for performing weight-loss surgeries on prisoners, resulting in claims of malnourishment, reports Business Insider. 

    According to a New York Times investigation, the hospital conducted 3,000 weight-loss surgeries this year, sometimes rushing inappropriate candidates through the process. Among the patients were at least 11 prisoners from the Rikers Island jail complex who underwent elective bariatric surgery. Bariatric surgery, a major operation that reduces the size of the stomach, requires patients to adhere to strict dietary changes, which can be nearly impossible in a prison setting.

    Two prisoners, David Mustiga and Luis Perez, were elected for the surgery and complained of struggles with poor nutrition and complications following the surgery. Mustiga, weighing 300 pounds, felt pressured into the procedure without being informed about the challenges of recovering in jail. He lost over 100 pounds in less than six months and experienced hair loss. 

    Perez faced difficulty in consuming enough protein and suffered from vomiting. Christopher Miller, a spokesperson for Bellevue, claimed that prisoners were

    “screened and assessed like all others”

    and were kept at the hospital until they could eat the same food served in jail. The hospital’s bariatric surgeons have an incentive to perform more surgeries as they earn higher wages based on the number of operations they conduct. 

    “It’s all about the numbers,”

    Dr. Carmen Kloer, who previously worked with Bellevue’s bariatric department as a medical resident, told The Times.

    “They are just churning through cases.”

    According to The Times, the hospital receives approximately $11,000, and sometimes even more, per procedure, which is usually funded by taxpayers since a majority of its patients are either on Medicaid or uninsured.

  • ‘Porch Pirates’ Leave Memphis Family Heartbroken As They Steal Grandmother’s Ashes

    ‘Porch Pirates’ Leave Memphis Family Heartbroken As They Steal Grandmother’s Ashes

    A Tennessee family is stunned by a double tragedy as they first mourn the loss of their beloved grandmother and now face the heartache of having her ashes stolen from their front porch, per the NY Post. 

    “It’s definitely been difficult. It’s one of those things where we’re trying to weigh the pros of the situation,”

    the granddaughter, Amy Rost told WREG.

    Rost’s grandmother passed away in October. Following her cremation, her ashes were divided between Rost’s father, Jeff, and her aunt residing in Ohio. The precious package was then sent to Jeff’s residence in Memphis’ Midtown neighborhood. However, despite the tracking information indicating a successful delivery on December 4th, Jeff was left empty-handed when he went to retrieve it from his front porch. He believed that a thief stole the package.

    “We’ve had so many things stolen here. Everything from tables and chairs to a can of Raid. Someone is always coming up and grabbing whatever they can find,”

    he told the outlet.

    Memphis was ranked the second worst city in the country for

    “porch pirates,”

    according to a report by Safewise last month. 

    The family is pleading for the person who took the box to return it immediately — no questions asked.

    “If I saw somebody bring a box up and leave it on the porch, I’ll leave it til they’re gone,”

    Jeff told WREG.

    “I’m not trying to prosecute anybody, it’s just it would certainly be nice to have it back.”

    The Rost family said they will be installing a security camera to prevent future thieves from returning.

  • Florida Woman Arrested For Falsely Reporting A Burglary That Included Her Children’s Christmas Gifts Being Stolen In Failed ‘Grinch-like Plot’

    Florida Woman Arrested For Falsely Reporting A Burglary That Included Her Children’s Christmas Gifts Being Stolen In Failed ‘Grinch-like Plot’

    A woman from Florida has been arrested after she falsely claimed that her children’s Christmas presents had been stolen, reports Fox News. 

    The incident occurred in Lehigh Acres, Florida, when Shana Hudson, 39, called the authorities on November 19th to report a residential burglary. Hudson alleged that someone had broken into her home and taken several items, including the Christmas presents meant for her children, leaving them without gifts for the upcoming holidays.

    In response to the report, detectives from the Lee County Sheriff’s Office launched an investigation. They also went above and beyond by coordinating a donation from the Lehigh Acres American Legion, as well as securing funds from the sheriff’s office’s Shop With a Cop program. Their goal was to surprise the family with new presents and ensure they had a joyful holiday season.

    However, as the detectives looked deeper into the case, a tip received by Crime Stoppers helped uncover the truth. Investigators found evidence that proved Hudson had fabricated the burglary. The detectives later discovered the reported stolen items hidden at a relative’s house.

    As a result, Hudson was arrested and the truth behind her

    “Grinch-like plot”

    was exposed.

    “This pathetic behavior is unacceptable, especially given the circumstances this holiday season,”

    Sheriff Carmine Marceno said in a statement.

    “This woman took advantage of the system and is now paying the price for her selfish choices.”

    She is charged with a fraud-false report to law enforcement.

  • Substitute Teacher Arrested After Allegedly Exposing His Rear End To Sixth Grade Class

    Substitute Teacher Arrested After Allegedly Exposing His Rear End To Sixth Grade Class

    A substitute teacher in Anderson, California, has been arrested on charges of indecent exposure and annoying or molesting a child. According to Huff Post, Stephen Canciani, 32, allegedly exposed his bare buttocks to a class of sixth graders at Anderson Middle School. 

    The incident was brought to light when two students reported it to a vice principal. Upon investigation, the vice principal witnessed Canciani with his pants and underwear pulled down to his mid-thigh. The vice principal immediately ordered Canciani to leave the building and contacted law enforcement. 

    Canciani turned himself into the Anderson Police Department later that night. In a letter to parents, Anderson Middle School Principal Felicia Ross said the teacher, whom she identified as

    “Mr. Costello,”

    exposed

    “his upper chest/neck area, butt cheeks and butt crack,”

    and added that

    “two students reported seeing frontal genital nudity.”

    The statement assured parents that Canciani would no longer be returning to work in the Cascade Union Elementary School District.

    District Superintendent Jason Provence released a statement on Wednesday praising students for coming forward.

    “We are extremely proud of our students that came forward to report [Canciani],”

    Provence said.

    “We applaud these students for their bravery and are deeply sorry for this appalling experience.”

    The school district has announced that counseling services will be provided to students who may have been affected by the incident. 

    Stephen Canciani was arrested and taken into custody in Shasta County after surrendering to the police. However, according to the Sacramento Bee, he has since been released as of Wednesday afternoon.

    School Bus Aide Arrested For Allegedly Strangling 6-Year-Old Student, Police Say

  • Woman Accidentally Shot In The Buttocks While Entering An MRI Machine With A Loaded Gun

    Woman Accidentally Shot In The Buttocks While Entering An MRI Machine With A Loaded Gun

    Doctors were left scratching their heads when a woman from Wisconsin found herself with an extra pair of holes in her backside after she slid into an MRI with a loaded gun. 

    According to records from the Food and Drug Administration, the 57-year-old unknowingly brought a loaded firearm into an MRI machine during a routine doctor’s visit in June, per The Post. As she was being loaded into the machine’s bore, the

    “powerful magnets”

    activated, causing the metal trigger to accidentally trip and the gun to discharge, reports reveal. 

    “Patient received a gunshot wound in the right buttock area,”

    the Use of Device Problem report submitted by the woman’s insurance company to the FDA in July read.

    “The patient was examined by a physician at the site who described the entry and exit holes as very small and superficial, only penetrating subcutaneous tissue.”

    The woman received medical treatment for her injuries and has fully recovered from the incident. It remains unclear how she managed to bring a weapon into the MRI room. The report states that she underwent a routine screening for metal objects before entering and claimed to have none on her.

    According to the outlet, MRI machines, which utilize strong magnetic fields to produce images of the human body, require patients to remove all metal objects due to the intense magnetism. Additionally, all items entering the machine rooms are carefully monitored to prevent everyday objects from becoming dangerous weapons.

  • An Airbnb Host’s Son Sentenced To Prison After Secretly Recording Guest In The Shower and Attempting To Blackmail Woman For Explicit Videos, Prosecutors Say

    An Airbnb Host’s Son Sentenced To Prison After Secretly Recording Guest In The Shower and Attempting To Blackmail Woman For Explicit Videos, Prosecutors Say

    A man from Ceres, California has been sentenced to prison after being found guilty of cyberstalking and blackmailing a guest who stayed in his mother’s Airbnb rental, Insider reported.

    Kevin Strutz, aged 51, pleaded guilty to two counts of cyberstalking earlier this year. The incident occurred in 2020 when Strutz began cyberstalking a young woman who had rented a room in his mother’s home through Airbnb. According to the complaint, Strutz and his mother were living in the home when the incident occurred. The woman, who is a traveling occupational therapist, had been staying at the home for around a month. 

    One day, she came across a disturbing message —

    “which talked about how ‘sexy’ she was”

    — on a cell phone in the shared bathroom, which led her to contact Airbnb and find another place to stay. After her departure, Strutz later sent sexually explicit messages to her on Facebook. The woman notified local authorities and Airbnb. 

    At the time, Airbnb said they had been cooperating with the FBI during the investigation.

    “We have no tolerance for the reported behavior and worked quickly to support the survivor once she brought it to our attention, including banning the associated host accounts from our platform at the time,”

    the company told CBS News. 

    According to prosecutors, Strutz continued to harass the woman for several months. Surprisingly to her, she received a nude image of herself from when she showered in the Airbnb bathroom from Strutz, prosecutors allege. He threatened to send the photo of her to everyone she knew unless she sent him a video of herself masturbating. The woman blocked Strutz’s accounts and reported the incident to the police again.

    It was later revealed that Strutz had secretly filmed the woman using a hidden cell phone in the bathroom. Strutz was convicted on two counts of stalking, in addition to a separate incident involving threats towards another victim. He was recently sentenced to over three years in prison, along with supervised release and a fine. Before this conviction, Strutz had a criminal record that included stalking, burglary, robbery, and assault with a deadly weapon.
