  • Mother Arrested After Reportedly Giving Jell-O Shots Containing Alcohol To Group of 5th Graders At Holiday Party

    Mother Arrested After Reportedly Giving Jell-O Shots Containing Alcohol To Group of 5th Graders At Holiday Party

    A mother from Texas is being charged after reportedly serving Jell-O shots to fifth graders at a holiday party, per PEOPLE. 

    Teresa Bernal is facing felony charge for injuring a child after students at Jones Elementary School ate vodka-infused Jell-O shots on Dec. 20. Most students had consumed the shots before staff discovered the alcohol, according to a court affidavit. Bernal claimed she didn’t know the shots contained any booze.

    According to the affidavit, she claimed she didn’t know Jell-O shots contained alcohol until that day. Once teachers learned what happened, they sent affected students to the nurse. The officer for the school, Darrin Grissom, noted that almost all 15 students he spoke to reported stomachaches and headaches. Two students experienced more serious reactions.

    The affidavit mentions that some Jell-O shots had strawberries and whipped cream, and others had a holiday theme. Grissom reached out to the store where Bernal bought the shots. The person who took the order agreed to share details. The complaint states Bernal asked if the shots contained alcohol after the kids had consumed them, and Grissom claims the Facebook ad advertising the shots indicated that vodka was used in the shots.

    “In my opinion, there is no way Bernal could have missed the fact that the Jello-O shots she purchased … contained drinking alcohol,” said Grissom.

  • Disturbed Parents Plead Guilty to Forcibly Tattooing Their Young Children After Restraining Them, Then Attempting to Remove Ink with Lemon Juice

    Disturbed Parents Plead Guilty to Forcibly Tattooing Their Young Children After Restraining Them, Then Attempting to Remove Ink with Lemon Juice

    A couple from Texas has pleaded guilty to forcibly tattooing their two young children while they were restrained, gagged, and blindfolded, according to the NY Post. 

    The mother and stepfather, Megan and Gunner Farr, confessed to using a staple to tattoo their 5 and 9-year-old children. Following a report to Child Protective Services, they desperately attempted to erase the tattoos by scraping and scrubbing the children’s skin so intensely that “flesh was removed,” as reported by KTRE. 

    “There were visible injuries on the child at the specific location of the tattoo and it appeared that the flesh was removed from the body at the tattoo location,” interim Zavalla Police Chief Lt. James Denby said when the disturbed couple was arrested on April 24, 2023. 

    Details of Horrific Abuse

    Police reported that Megan, 27, and Gunner, 23, restrained the children with rope, blindfolded them with a rag, and taped their mouths shut before using a pointed needle to tattoo their skin. The couple marked the 5-year-old’s foot and the 9-year-old’s shoulder, as detailed in an arrest affidavit obtained by the news outlet.

    On April 17, 2023, the children’s biological father and stepmother alerted Child Protective Services after noticing the tattoos and questioning Megan Farr, who reportedly laughed before driving away. The CPS investigation led the disturbed parents to attempt to remove the tattoos by cutting, scraping, and scrubbing the children’s skin with lemon juice, according to the affidavit. Officials later removed both children, along with their younger siblings, from the home. 

    Megan Farr pleaded guilty on Thursday to causing injury to a child, as reported by the outlet. She is slated to receive her sentencing in May. Gunner Farr pleaded guilty on March 20 and was sentenced to five years in prison for bodily injury charges and an additional two years for unlawful restraint, according to KTRE.

  • 35-Year-Old Man Allegedly Burns Girlfriend, 64, with Hot Soup for ‘Talking Too Much’

    35-Year-Old Man Allegedly Burns Girlfriend, 64, with Hot Soup for ‘Talking Too Much’

    A 35-year-old man in Texas is in custody after his girlfriend, 67, alleged that he deliberately poured hot soup on her, resulting in third-degree burns, per PEOPLE. 

    Alexander Alton McDavid was taken into custody on multiple charges, including assault causing bodily injury with a prior conviction, injury to an elderly person, continuous violence against family members, resisting arrest, and making terroristic threats against family, as indicated by jail records. According to Law & Crime, he remained in McLennan County Jail on a $130,000 bond as of Monday afternoon.

    An arrest affidavit, reported by KWTX, provides further details regarding the allegations against him. According to the documents, the victim stated that on February 28, while at their shared apartment, McDavid became angry and told her she was talking too much. At that moment, she was taking soup out of the microwave when he allegedly “intentionally” struck her plate, causing the hot liquid to spill onto her shoulder and forearm. 

    The victim reportedly sustained third-degree burns from the incident but did not file a report until a few days later. She claimed that she did not have a car or a cell phone, but went to the police station to report the incident after leaving the home to visit the Social Security Office. 

    The victim informed the police that they had been together for about a year before he started physically abusing her, alleging that he had previously choked her, although she never reported those incidents to authorities. The suspect has a history of arrests, including one from May 2024 that resulted in an assault-family violence charge, which is still pending.

  • Serial Groper Arrested After Touching Another Woman On American Airlines, He’s Now Banned From The Airline

    Serial Groper Arrested After Touching Another Woman On American Airlines, He’s Now Banned From The Airline

    A 55-year-old Texas man, Cherian Abraham, was apprehended for allegedly groping a woman on an American Airlines headed to Seattle. This incident, which occurred on March 18, follows previous accusations against him, where he reportedly groped two other woman’s breast on a previous flight. The New York Post reported that the airline has banned Abraham. 

    About two hours into the flight from Chicago, the man allegedly touched an unnamed woman’s breast. He claimed it was accidental while reaching for his bag; however, the victim said he touched her again shortly after, trying to reach her nipple.

    Five minutes later, Abraham poked the woman under her arm, angering her after his repeated actions. She asked, “Why are you touching me?” While she confronted him, he silently grabbed his backpack and put it on his lap, which seemed odd to a bystander, which they informed officials. 

    A flight attendant confirmed that the victim requested a seat change, saying Abraham was “molesting” her. When questioned, he denied touching her until he was told about a potential witness who saw his actions. Despite past incidents and complaints, he claimed he had never been accused of groping a woman before.

    On Oct. 9 the year before, another woman reported to Minneapolis Airport officials that the man touched her leg three times before she told him to stop. He denied the claims of all the women, who felt “violated.” He was apprehended on charges of abusive sexual conduct.

    A discussion between parents of Texas teens turned violent when a father was shot in the chest following a disagreement.

    The victim was flown to the hospital after the incident; however, his condition is unclear. The Madison’s were apprehended and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. They have been released on bond and will return to court on May 20.

  • Texas Janitor Who Spread Serious STDs After Peeing In Staffer’s Water Bottle Gets Light Sentence

    Texas Janitor Who Spread Serious STDs After Peeing In Staffer’s Water Bottle Gets Light Sentence

    A janitor in Texas, 52-year-old Lucio Catarino Diaz, was sentenced to only six years behind bars for infecting over 13 office workers with herpes and hepatitis-A by urinating in their water bottles and a cooler at a #Houston medical facility in 2022, reports the New York Post. 

    The janitor was recorded committing the disturbing act and pleaded guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He can apply for parole after serving three years, as he has already spent two years behind bars. Reports noted that he won’t need to register as a sex offender. 

    The incident started when a victim noticed her water tasted spoiled, had an unusual smell, and looked yellowish, which led her to suspect someone had tampered with it. He was apprehended in Oct. 2022. 

    The Victim Speaks

    The unidentified victim told KHOU back in Nov. 2022, “I felt disgusted… I raised it to my face, smelled it, and it smelled like urine.” 

    This raised concerns, leading her to place a concealed camera on her desk. The camera caught Diaz putting his private part in her water bottle after she left work for the day. 

    She revealed, “[He] just picked it up, removed the cap, and proceeded to put his penis halfway into the bottle. Then he tilted it up so that his penis was surrounded by the water.” 

    After being questioned by officials, Diaz admitted to the act, saying, he had “malicious intent,” court documents say. 

    Other woman who used a shared water cooler or personal bottles tainted by Diaz later tested positive for serious STDs that can lead to several health issues. Some victims from Westmont medical building have filed a lawsuit against Diaz and as well as his employer for over $1 million.

  • Texas Parents Arrested After Daughter Found Walking Along Busy Highway Because Father Refused to Drive Her to School, Police Say

    Texas Parents Arrested After Daughter Found Walking Along Busy Highway Because Father Refused to Drive Her to School, Police Say

    The parents of a young girl in Texas are facing charges for putting her safety at risk after her father refused to drive her to school, leaving her to walk alone in the early morning hours, as reported by WFLA.

    Ta’Lyjah Monea Conner, 23, and Devonte Tremayne Hall, 27, were arrested by Midland police after their daughter was seen walking alone along Rankin Highway while it was still dark outside. Officers responded to reports about the girl and eventually located her on the busy road’s 1600 block. According to KMID, a local ABC affiliate, the girl told police that she was on her way to her elementary school because her father refused to take her.

    The officers put the girl in their cruiser to warm her up and provided her with a snack. The child told officers that it was her first time walking to school from home. KMID estimated that the walk from her residence to Pease Magnet Elementary School would take about an hour and a half, and police believed she had already been walking for approximately 45 minutes.

    The girl informed police she didn’t know where she was going and had almost been hit by a car while crossing the street, reports note. KMID traced her route and estimated she was still an hour and a half away from her school. Authorities interviewed Conner and Hall and arrested them for abandoning or endangering a child. They were booked into the Midland County Detention Center and later posted bail.

  • Embalmer Charged with Castrating Corpse of Deceased Man After Discovering He Was a Sex Offender

    Embalmer Charged with Castrating Corpse of Deceased Man After Discovering He Was a Sex Offender

    A Texas embalmer is facing charges for allegedly abusing a corpse after reportedly severing a deceased man’s penis and placing it in his mouth, per Law & Crime. 

    The investigation was initiated when the Harris County Constable’s Office Precinct 1 received a complaint from the Texas Funeral Service Commission. This complaint came from a funeral director at Claire Brothers Funeral Home, which oversees Memorial Mortuary and Crematory, where the incident allegedly took place.

    The funeral director was informed by staff that 34-year-old Amber Paige Laudermilk, a licensed embalmer, had disfigured a body. When Laudermilk discovered that the deceased, 58-year-old Charles Roy Rodriguez, was a registered sex offender, she supposedly used a scalpel on February 7 to remove part of his genitals and “stuffed it in his mouth.” She instructed a trainee present during the incident, saying, “You didn’t see anything,” as reported in the affidavit.

    When other staff members came to check on the body, Laudermilk allegedly covered the groin area with a sheet and mentioned that the deceased had “a lot going on with him.” Rodriguez was listed on the sex offender registry after being convicted in 2008 for sexually assaulting a woman, which resulted in a 10-year deferred adjudication, as stated by Constable Alan Rosen.

    Laudermilk surrendered to the Harris County Jail on Monday and has since been released on a $5,000 bond. She is no longer employed at the facility, and the state plans to suspend or revoke her embalming license, as reported by local NBC affiliate KPRC.

  • Teachers Suspended After Texas Middle School Students Shared Needles for Mass Tattoo Sessions in Classroom

    Teachers Suspended After Texas Middle School Students Shared Needles for Mass Tattoo Sessions in Classroom

    Parents are furious after their children took part in a mass tattooing session at a Texas middle school, where they circulated needles among multiple classrooms, all while their unaware teachers continued with their lessons, as reported by the NY Post. 

    On Tuesday, the students allegedly used temporary ink to tattoo each other with the shared needle, leading officials to worry that they might have also exposed themselves to potential infections. “How is it that these kids are getting tattoos in class and not one teacher noticed it?” mother Ashley Armstrong told Fox 4 News.

    Armstrong’s 11-year-old son, Jordan, used a contaminated needle to write “I heart my lord” across his forearm and “JC” on his hands. The incident happened on Tuesday while in his classroom at Travis Intermediate in Greenville, about 50 miles northeast of Dallas. Jordan noted that a boy approached him with the offer to tattoo him. That needle was “shared several times from one class to another class to another class,” Armstrong told the outlet.

    The school nurse called Armstrong to inform her of the troubling incident and advised her to get blood tests done right away. Thankfully, the results came back negative for any diseases. Armstrong reprimanded Jordan, reminding him that “he knows better,” but she expressed concern over how the teachers allowed this underage tattooing to escalate.

    On Thursday, Greenville ISD addressed parent’s concerns, announcing that several teachers from the classrooms involved have been suspended while an investigation is ongoing. “Greenville ISD is aware of an incident at Travis Intermediate School where students gave each other tattoos using temporary ink and the same needle,” the district said in a statement.

  • Cruel Scammers Exploit Photos Of A 9-Year-Old Boy Fighting Brain Cancer On Fraudulent TikTok Accounts To Collect Donations

    Cruel Scammers Exploit Photos Of A 9-Year-Old Boy Fighting Brain Cancer On Fraudulent TikTok Accounts To Collect Donations

    The family of a 9-year-old boy battling brain cancer is speaking out against scammers taking advantage of their heartbreaking situation to make money for themselves, as reported by the NY Post.

    Deceitful individuals have been using images of Julian Galloway on fraudulent TikTok and other social media accounts to solicit donations from kind-hearted individuals via PayPal, according to ABC13. The Texas family, who has been documenting Julian’s courageous fight against cancer on Facebook, discovered this disturbing scheme in May. “It’s very disheartening. People out there will do anything to make a quick buck, ”the boy’s father Lee Galloway told The Post Monday. Julian was diagnosed with medulloblastoma in December 2019. Two years ago, he was given just six months to a year to live, but he has defied the odds and continues to bravely fight today, according to ABC13.

    The family has made significant efforts to report the fraudulent accounts, attempting to work their way through the app and its support center to have the posts removed. However, Galloway shared with the Independent that it has been challenging for them to even demonstrate that “anybody had been victimized.”

    Although the family has noticed a decline in scammers since they began raising awareness about the issue, Galloway still discovers new accounts featuring even more current information. They took photos they specifically shared with nonprofits or images that Galloway just posted on their Facebook page moments earlier.
