    A school bus driver from Long Island has been charged with kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 15-year-old student, per the NY Post. The assaults are said to have occurred multiple times this year, both at the driver’s apartment in Queens and on the school bus. 

    The accused, Giovanny Campos, 50, pleaded not guilty to charges including kidnapping, rape, criminal sex acts, and reckless endangerment.

    officials said.

    According to officials, Giovanny Guzman worked for the Cheese Bus Co., which is based in Jamaica. In a statement to News 12 Long Island, Ezra Law, the legal firm representing the company, confirmed that Campos is no longer employed by Cheese Bus, Inc.

  • 70-Year-Old Woman Successfully Gives Birth To Twins Using IVF, Doctors Called The Act ‘Incredibly Irresponsible’

    A 70-year-old woman from Uganda recently gave birth to twins using IVF and says she is “feeling great.” Safina Namukwaya delivered a baby boy and a baby girl via cesarean section at Women’s Hospital International and Fertility Center in Uganda on November 29, according to USA TODAY. 

    “Some might argue that 70 years is old, but God decided that I get to have twins at 70. There is no one that can put a limit on God’s authority and power,”

    Namukwaya told the outlet through an interpreter.

    In a recent Facebook post, the hospital described the event as

    “historic.”

    However, the American Society of Reproductive Medicine advises against IVF treatment for women over 55 due to concerns about the potential risks associated with pregnancy.

    Brian Levine, practice director at New York City’s CCRM fertility clinic, told TODAY that he thinks the decision to treat Nawakuma was

    “incredibly irresponsible.”

    However, Edward Tamale Sali, Namukwaya’s fertility doctor, told TODAY that,

    “It’s her human right. It’s her body… [and] she’s physically fit.”

    Drunk Paramedic Crashed A Detroit Ambulance While A Patient Was Inside

    A paramedic from the Detroit Fire Department has been placed on leave following an incident where he crashed an ambulance while under the influence of alcohol, NY Post reported. 

    The unnamed paramedic side-swiped three cars while transporting a patient through Hamtramck, a city located just north of downtown Detroit, in the early hours of Friday morning. Following the crash, he remained at the scene until the police arrived. The paramedic, who has been employed by the department for six years, was later tested in accordance with department procedures and found to be intoxicated.

    “We have a zero-tolerance policy for the use of alcohol while on duty and will take the appropriate action,”

    Detroit Fire Department Commissioner Chuck Simms said in a statement.

    “We have an outstanding team of EMTs and paramedics at DFD and it’s unfortunately that this incident detracts from the lifesaving work they do every day.”

    Simms added,

    “We have programs and supportive services in place for our employees who may be struggling with issues such as alcohol dependency and we will redouble our efforts to make sure any employee who may need them are aware of how to access them.”

    The individual being transported in the ambulance did not sustain any injuries.

    According to the department, the paramedic has a clean record with no prior accidents or incidents involving alcohol.

  • Alternative Healer Charged With Manslaughter After Woman Dies In ‘Slapping Therapy’ Workshop

    Alternative Healer Charged With Manslaughter After Woman Dies In ‘Slapping Therapy’ Workshop

    Hongchi Xiao, whose occupation is described as an alternative healer, has been charged with manslaughter by gross negligence. The Wiltshire Police revealed this on Thursday, stating that the 60-year-old self-proclaimed healer was charged upon his return to the UK from Australia, following an extradition warrant, per Insider.

    The charge stems from the tragic death of Danielle Carr-Gomm, a 71-year-old woman who passed away in Seend, England, in October 2016. Carr-Gomm had reportedly attended one of Xiao’s slapping therapy workshops, which took place at a hotel.

    According to her son, Matthew Carr-Gomm, his mother had participated in the workshop in an attempt to alleviate her diabetes. She had been exploring alternative medical practices due to her fear of needles, as mentioned in The Guardian.

    “She was always keen to try and find alternative methods of treating and dealing with her diabetes and was very interested in alternative and holistic medicine and therapies,”

    he said.

    Xiao, a proponent of paida lajin therapy, is known for advocating patting and slapping body areas. According to the Associated Press, he has led workshops worldwide. However, the slapping aspect of this therapy can often cause bruising and bleeding. 

    Xiao has a warrant for his arrest, issued in October 2019, three years after the death of Carr-Gomm. He is scheduled to appear in a UK court on Friday.

  • Jeezy Files Motion For Set Custody Schedule, Claims Ex Jeannie Mai Is ‘Gatekeeping’ Their Daughter

    Jeezy Files Motion For Set Custody Schedule, Claims Ex Jeannie Mai Is ‘Gatekeeping’ Their Daughter

    Hip Hop star Jeezy is seeking legal help to resolve a custody issue with his estranged wife Jeannie Mai. He has filed a motion requesting a formal custody agreement with his soon-to-be ex-wife to avoid further complications. Jeezy and Jeannie Mai currently share custody of their one-year-old daughter, Monaco. However, according to the rapper, their unofficial visitation schedule has been difficult to follow.

    According to sources, the couple initially agreed on a temporary plan for the remainder of 2023, but the arrangement has proven impractical. Jeezy’s legal team has now submitted a court document accusing Jeannie Mai of acting as a

    “gatekeeper”

    and preventing his ability to spend quality time with their daughter.

    “The lack of consistency, continuity, and stability inherently associated with such a haphazard and fluid parenting time schedule is stressful to the child, and it has, as is unfortunately inevitable with all families in transition, created unnecessary tension and confusion regarding not only parenting time but also in regard to each parent’s role and rights when the child is in their respective custody.”

    He continued,

    “Jeezy said he doesn’t believe Mai acting maliciously or with specific intent to harm his relationship with their child.”

    Adding,

    “Mai’s interference with Jeezy’s relationship with the child, again, while not generated from or with malicious intent, is nevertheless, causing confusion and tension between the parties and is working to stifle the development of Jeezy’s relationship with the child. As such, it is necessary at this point to separate, structure and clearly define the parties’ temporary legal and physical custody rights and set a parenting time schedule consistent with the best interests of the child.” 

    After news broke that Jeezy filed for divorce from his wife in September (2023) he later posted a statement to his social media stating,

    “Our beautiful daughter is the best gift from our relationship and I am committed to assuring she feels the love and stability she deserves. During this period, I kindly request that you respect our family’s privacy as we focus on healing.”

  • Chicago Police Officer Fired and Charged for Falsely Reporting Armed Robbery Involving $5K

    Chicago Police Officer Fired and Charged for Falsely Reporting Armed Robbery Involving $5K

    A Chicago police officer has lost her job after she was caught fabricating a story about being held at gunpoint and robbed of thousands of dollars, reports the NY Post. 

    Officer Zondranika Williams, aged 37, has been charged with felony disorderly conduct and false report of an offense. She was relieved of her duties with the Chicago Police Department two days before her court hearing. 

    The incident occurred on September 23 when Williams called 911 to report the robbery, claiming that she had been robbed of $5,000 in cash near her garage. According to local reports, she alleged that the suspect was armed and shouted,

    “Give me everything you got!”

    It was later discovered that the entire incident was a fabrication.

    Williams told fellow officers that her surveillance cameras were not functioning at the time. However, investigators managed to obtain footage from a nearby neighbor’s camera, which revealed that Williams was alone in the alley. The footage showed her removing a duffel bag from her car before walking out of view of the camera. 

    She turned herself in on Tuesday, as reported by the news station. Williams, who had served as a police officer for eight years, was promptly terminated by The Chicago Police Department, according to a statement provided to CBS. The reasons behind Williams’ alleged fabrication of the robbery remain unclear.

  • Chop’t Salad Chain Faces Lawsuit As Woman Alleges Consuming Human Finger In Arugula

    Chop’t Salad Chain Faces Lawsuit As Woman Alleges Consuming Human Finger In Arugula

    A woman from Greenwich, Connecticut is taking legal action against the fast-food salad chain, Chop’t, claiming that she discovered part of an employee’s severed finger in her meal, Insider reported. 

    Allison Cozzi visited a Chop’t location in Mt. Kisco, New York on April 7 when she realized she was

    “chewing on a portion of a human finger”

    that had been mixed into her salad, according to her complaint. 

    The complaint, filed on Monday in a Westchester County court, states that earlier that day, a manager at the store accidentally chopped off a piece of their finger while cutting arugula and left for the hospital. Shockingly, the contaminated arugula was then left on the service line and served to customers, as alleged in the lawsuit.

    Cozzi alleges that the restaurant’s negligence resulted in her sustaining injuries, including,

    “severe and serious personal injuries, including shock, panic attacks, migraine and the exacerbation of migraine, cognitive impairment, traumatic stress and anxiety, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and neck and shoulder pain.”

    According to the complaint, the Westchester County Department of Health has cited the restaurant for a health code violation. In September, the Chop’t location was fined $900 for not adhering to a code that mandates food establishments to operate in a way to

    “avoid imminent health hazards.”

    This information was obtained from the complaint and publicly available records reviewed by Business Insider.
