Utah Mayor Shares Heartwarming Letter of Man Apologizing for Stealing a Stop Sign 75 Years Ago

June 25, 2018 By June Harris

stop sign

The man has been carrying the burden of the stolen stop sign for the past 75 years.

Robert Hale, the Mayor of Midvale, a small Utah town, recently shared a heartwarming letter of apology on the establishment’s Facebook page. Hale said the handwritten letter had been sent by an anonymous 90-year-old “sorrowful citizen” who wanted to apologize for stealing a stop sign when he was young.

Mayor Said That Donated Money Will Be Used to Replace Another Stop Sign

Hale recalls how the entire Mayor’s was absolutely puzzled when the letter in question arrived. No one knew what to make of it – was is legit or perhaps some kind of clever hoax?

After reading the letter, Hale figured that it was the real deal – a heartfelt apology coming from a man who had to live with the weight of what he did when he was a “thoughtless teenager.”

Together with the letter of apology, the unknown citizen enclosed a $50 which should cover for the stop sign. As the story goes, 75 years ago, the man stole a stop sign from Midvale. Apparently, he felt so guilty for what he did, that he decided to make some sort of amends.

Well, it doesn’t matter how much times passes, it’s the gesture that counts. In the letter, the unknown man mentions that he’s now trying to mend some of the things he did wrong during his life. He also says that he’s ninety.

Conclusion

The “sorrowful citizen” finished the letter by writing that he wishes to be forgiven by God and that he’s truly sorry for every he did wrong. He also asked the Mayor or anyone who happens to come across his letter to use the money in the envelope to buy a new stop sign.

Hale declared that, unfortunately, there’s no way to track down the letter’s author, but his $50 bill will be used to replace a stolen stop sign.

California Man Arrested for Stalking Ex-Girlfriend, Hacking Her Online Accounts

June 19, 2018 By June Harris

cyberstalkin

California man arrested for calling his ex 4000 times and sending 300 text messages.

On Thursday, Thousand Oaks Police Department took a 33-year-old California man into custody. The man was charged with cyberstalking after an unidentified female complained about having discovered that the suspect hacked all her online accounts. Authorities declared that the suspect flooded the woman with calls and emails since they broke up in 2016.

California Man Forced Victim to Move From Moorpark to Thousand Oaks

Meet Raul Plancarte-Hernandez, a 33-year-old North Hills resident. Mr. Plancarte-Hernandez recently had a little eye-to-eye ‘talk’ with the authorities about his obsession with a 38-year-old unidentified woman from Moorpark.

According to the authorities, at the beginning of the week, the woman contacted the police to complain about Plancarte-Hernandez’s behavior. The victim said that she and the suspect used to form a couple. Apparently, they’ve dated for a while in 2016, but, as luck has it, she decided to go on, while he couldn’t live with her decision.

Since the big breakup, Plancarte-Hernandez has been actively harassing the woman. The authorities estimated that over the past two years, the California man sent the woman 4,000 text messages and called her at least 300 times. She also told the police that the time of day didn’t really matter to Plancarte-Hernandez.

Regrettably, the California man didn’t stoop to stalking. When the woman blocked his caller ID, Plancarte-Hernandez hacked all the woman’s online account, including her PayPal, Apple ID, iCloud, and her email address.

After a while, the California man started sending her threatening messages. When the woman couldn’t take it anymore, she moved from Moorpark to Thousands Oaks just to get away from the individual. It didn’t work.

Conclusion

And so, on the 7th of June, the police arrested the California man. According to a police spokesperson, the suspect was found in front of the woman’s house.

CD Projekt Red Teases Cyberpunk 2077 In-game Trailer at E3

June 12, 2018 By June Harris

Cyberpunk 2077

First Cyberpunk 2077 in-game teaser trailer at E3 2018.

It’s happening, folks, it really is happening! During this year’s E3, CD Projekt Red, the mastermind behind the critically-acclaimed Witcher franchise, has unveiled the much-anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 game trailer. Needless to say, the audience exploded with joy knowing that the game’s still alive and kicking.

What to Expect from Cyberpunk 2077?

Unfortunately, as it happens with all CD Projekt Red’s teasers, the latest in-game trailer left us with more questions than answers. Not that the presentation trailer was chattier, but this one really managed to stir the spirits.

As you know, the first trailer leaked by CD Projekt Red painted a rather uncanny picture – the cybernetically-enhanced chick standing there motionless, while a bullet bounces off her face, and the dude with the strange visor standing behind her with his gun pointing at the chick.

The 2-minute clip could pass as boring if not for the background and for the Bladerunner vibe it gives. Yes, from what we can tell, Cyberpunk 2077 seems to be an eclectic blend of Witcher-type storytelling, Bladerunner, Judge Dredd, and perhaps something from Demolition Man.

So far, all we know for sure is that the game could be months away from hitting the shelves. Story-wise, a couple of months ago, CD Projekt Red mentioned something about the plot taking place in Night City, a dystopian megalopolis, where cybernetic implants are more valuable than money, drugs or human lives.

Interestingly enough, it appears that the character’s progression is based on the number of implants you find, steal or even kill for. Presumably, there’s an implant out there that helps you understand what other NPCs want from you.

Conclusion

Several CD Projekt Red fans argued that the so-called language implant could work in the same manner as the translation matrixes from No Man’s Sky.

And no, we don’t know if the main character will run into Ciri, but chances are that we will find out soon enough.

Michigan Woman Sentence for Live-Streaming Infant Sexual Abuse

May 30, 2018 By June Harris

live-streaming

Michigan woman to serve six years in prison for performing fellatio on son.

Last week, Jazmine Pacyga, a 20-year-old Michigan woman, was found guilty by the jury and sentenced to a minimum of six years behind bars. Pacyga pleaded guilty in April for live-streaming herself while performing oral sex on a 5-month-old infant. She’ll return to court next month for assaulting her cellmate.

Michigan Woman Claimed She Was Coerced into Creating Pornographic Material

In February 2017, Jazmine Pacyga was taken into custody and charged with first-degree sexual conduct and producing child pornography.

According to court documents, the Michigan woman was involved for a while with an individual named Nathan Osborne, presumably the child’s father.

Based on Pacyga’s taped confession, it all began when Osborne sent her a tape which depicted another mother having sexual relations with a small child. Allegedly, Osborne asked Pacyga to reproduce the act with her son.

The Michigan woman told the authorities that she was at first skeptical about being intimate with her son. However, not wanting to disappoint Osborne, she sent him a recording of her having sex with another man.

The woman later admitted that she did it because of her financial situation. Before the February 2017 recording, Pacyga would send Osborne nude pictures and another video of her having sex with adult men.

However, come February, Pacyga took the next step in her obsession with Osborne. While at home, the Michigan woman live-streamed while she performed oral sex on her 5-month-old son.

Conclusion

Following Pacyga’s arrest, Osborne and the woman on tape were also taken into custody.

Last year, the man was sentenced to 37 years in prison for distributing child pornography and exploiting a child. Subsequently, the woman was sentenced to 20 years in prison on the same charges.

As for Pacyga, the jury sentenced her last week to six years behind bars after being found guilty of producing child pornography. She was acquitted a week before of first-degree criminal sexual conduct.

Nanny Cam Captures Individual Exposing Himself in Front of Sleeping Mom And Baby

May 17, 2018 By June Harris

Nanny cam captures home invader taking pictures of his genitals next to mother and child.

Utah authorities are trying to identify a potentially dangerous individual who broke into a house and exposed himself in front of a woman and her child. According to the police report, the infant and woman were sleeping while the individual roamed around the house. The event was captured by a nanny cam.

Nanny Cam Shows Man Taking Photos of Genitals Next to Sleeping Baby

A woman, who asked the authorities not to reveal her name, dialed 911 on Monday morning. She told the 911 operator that an unknown individual broke into her house overnight and did ‘things’ near her child’s crib.

Based on the nanny cam recording, the authorities were able to determine what happened in the woman’s house.

At 3:40 a.m., the surveillance camera placed above the baby’s crib captured an individual entering the room.

The suspect appears to scope the room to make sure everyone was asleep. He can be seen walking towards the crib and later going off camera. The authorities only released part of the footage.

However, the homeowner filled in the blanks for us.

After a while, the individual unbuckled his pants, went next to woman and child and took a picture of him flaunting his genitals in front of the unaware victims.

He then got dressed and left the house.

The woman knew that something might be wrong when she woke up and saw the bedroom door opened.

Conclusion

The woman’s husband told the investigators that the home intruder might have entered via the garage door.

Crime scene investigators corroborate the man’s theory, as there were no signs of forced entry.

The man also stated that the perpetrator is probably a known person since he definitely knew the code to the garage’s lock.

Is Gravity the Force Keeping Aliens from Visiting Earth? European Scientists Say So (Study)

May 8, 2018 By June Harris

super earth exoplanet half in shadow

A German scientist proposes gravity as being the reason why alien races don’t visit Earth.

 

Many scientists believe extraterrestrial life does, in fact, exist out there. It’s merely about finding a livable planet with a habitable orbit. The orbit allows for near-Earth temperatures and could permit the existence of water. Many such planets do actually exist outside Earth’s solar system. However, some scientists now believe gravity may prove to be a major problem and the ‘reason’ preventing extraterrestrials from leaving their planet.

 

The Super-Earth and Gravitational Force

 

Super-Earths are planets similar to Earth in the sense that they could present water and livable temperatures. However, these planets are substantially larger than Earth. Our planet is not that substantially large.

Super-Earths are also known as exoplanets. Due to the sheer size of such an exoplanet, which likely increases the gravity, leaving the planet’s atmosphere would prove very difficult, if not impossible, claim some.

 

The Force Required for Leaving Orbit

 

In order to exit the atmosphere of many of these exoplanets, an Apollo mission-based rocket would reportedly by necessary. Such a spacecraft would weigh an astronomical 440,000 tons (for all the fuel required).

This volume is on par with the size and mass of the Egypt pyramids. Due to the sheer cost of space travel, it would also likely be near impossible for extraterrestrial life to leave their homes. That is unless a different and more powerful source of energy was harnessed.

 

The Benefits of a Thicker Atmosphere

 

While the atmosphere of a super-Earth might prevent extraterrestrials from leaving the planet, it would also protect them as well. Namely, a thicker atmosphere would avert solar radiation.

The gravitational forces on such planets would prove far more intense than that of Earth. These planets often have 10 times the mass of Earth.

For example, a planet called Kepler-20b, which is 950 light-years away from Earth, fits these parameters. To leave the orbit of this exoplanet, the “escape velocity” would need to be 2.4 times larger than what is required to leave Earth’s atmosphere.

The heavier gravitational forces would not necessarily mean that a hypothetical extraterrestrial race would be unable to leave its planet. However, by Earth’s standards, it would prove extremely difficult, far more dangerous, and substantially more expensive.

Michael Hippke, a German researcher, is the one to have proposed this exoplanet gravity theory. As it is, the consensus is that the paper raises an interesting point as to what other races would have to achieve to reach the outer space.

May 4, 2018 By June Harris

Utah Courthouse

The suspect who fled the Utah courthouse broke his leg and fractured his skull and pelvis.

Because tried to run from your trial can get you into even more trouble, we bring you the story of a 35-year-old man who landed in the emergency room after the tried to flee from a Utah courthouse before the judge pronounced the sentence. After this little escapade, the individual fractured his skull, pelvis, and broke his right leg.

Utah Courthouse Bailiffs Tried to Soften the Suspect’s Fall

On Monday, several bailiffs attending Christopher Clay Rudd’s trial called the paramedics after the suspect took a nosedive from the second-floor balcony.

According to the incident report, on Monday, Rudd was brought before the Spanish Fork court to be sentenced for drug-related charged. George Fattah, a Spanish Fork court spokesperson, declared that the suspect stood before the jury because he failed to follow his court-ordered drug treatment.

Before the judge could communicate Rudd’s sentence, the individual rose from his seat and began running towards the door. The suspect, who was handcuffed, managed to exit the courtroom. He was heading for the stairs when he tripped and fell over the handrail.

A surveillance camera mounted on the Utah courthouse’s ground floor reveals a bailiff standing at the front desk. Upon seeing Rudd falling, the bailiff moves forward in an attempt to catch.

However, Rudd hit the floor before the law enforcement official could get to him. The last seconds of the footage show the bailiff and another police officer trying to render assistance to the suspect.

Conclusion

Following the incident, Rudd was taken to the hospital. His little escape attempt left him with a skull and pelvis fracture and a broken right leg.

More than that, according to the authorities, the man who tried to escape the Utah courthouse could also be charged with one count of escape attempt.

Alabama Police Under Fire for Brutalizing African-American Woman in Waffle House

April 26, 2018 By June Harris

Alabama Police

The Alabama police was criticized for abusive behavior towards African-American suspect.

The Alabama Police were severely criticized following an incident which took place on Wednesday at the Waffle House restaurant in Saraland. Several eyewitnesses described how police officers brutalized an African-American woman after being summoned by the one the restaurant’s employees.

Alabama Police Says African-American Woman Threatened to Shoot Everyone Inside

Benjamin Crump, a Saraland civil rights attorney, described the Wednesday Waffle House restaurant incident as appalling and a clear violation of human rights. More than that, Crump declared that he already spoke to the victim’s family who intends to press charges against the police officer involved.

As it happens, a customer who witnessed the entire incident managed to record it and to upload the video on his social media account.

The movie depicts an African-American woman, later identified as Chikesia Clemons, arguing with two police officers inside the Waffle House restaurant. At one point during their conversation, the arresting officer can be seen twisting the woman’s hand and threatening to break her arm if she did not comply.

Later that day, the Alabama Police Department issued a public statement detailing the incident. According to a police spokesperson, the authorities were summoned to the Waffle House restaurant by a member of the staff after a woman entered the locale and threatened to shoot everyone. More than that, it would appear that the woman was in advanced state of intoxication.

Conclusion

The authorities were called right after a staff member approached the woman and asked her to put away the bottle she bought from a nearby liquor store. Refusing, the suspect uncorked the bottle and began drinking.

After a while, she started yelling at serves and other clients. Crump noted that even though the woman had a disruptive behavior, the way the authorities intervened was way too brutal.

County Commissioner Arrested and Convicted of Prostitution and Physical Abuse

April 23, 2018 By June Harris

County Commissioner Arrested for Prostitution

The county commissioner used his victims’ financial situation to his advantage.

A 71-year-old county commissioner is facing pressures to resign after he was arrested and convicted of soliciting sexual services in exchange for groceries and utility bills. Despite the Republican Party voting in favor of his resignation, the county commissioner has yet to step down from his office.

County Commissioner Carefully Selected His Victims, Police Officials Declared

Last week, 71-year-old Nick Nicholson, a Hernando County commissioner was arrested and charged with multiple counts of prostitution and physical abuse. Based on the police report, Nicholson approached two female victims and persuaded them into having sex in exchange for various services like paying their rent, rehabilitation bills, or money for grocery shopping.

Nicholson’s first victim is 30-year-old Valarie Surette of Hernando County. Learning that Surette was a drug addict, the county commissioner offered the woman a place to stay and grocery money in exchange for sex every other Monday and Wednesday.

More than that, the police report reveals that Nicholson allowed Surette and her husband to move into his home, where she continued offering the county commissioner sexual services in exchange for money. Nicholson would offer Surette $300 for having sex and even allowed her to bring outside clients.

Unfortunately, Surette was far from being Nicholson’s only victim. Melinda Baker, a 38-year-old Hernando County resident, told the authorities that she got a similar deal from the county commissioner.

In exchange for sex every other Tuesday and Saturday, the man would help her with her drug rehab bills. The authorities were notified by Nicholson’s neighbors who declared that everyday cars would pull in front of the man’s house.

Conclusion

The man’s victims reveal that Nicholson had an unusually high sexual appetite and would treat them as sexual slaves. Furthermore, the county commissioner was relying on his victims not contacting the authorities, given their financial situations.

Virginia Man Posed as Fake Cop to Follow Female Driver Across Three States

April 12, 2018 By June Harris

Virginia Man Posing as Cop Arrested

The Virginia man used a similar vehicle to follow the female driver over the weekend.

The Virginia authorities recently arrested a 28-year-old driver who, allegedly, impersonated a police officer to follow a female driver across three states over the weekend. A search of the car revealed that the Virginia man had just about anything he needed to maintain the illusion, the authorities noted.

Virginia Man Was Driving a Car Used to Shot a Music Video

According to the police report, on Saturday afternoon, a female driver, who wants to maintain her anonymity, called the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office and told the deputies that a man driving what appeared to be a shady police car was tailing her.

The victim also claimed that the driver has been following her all weekend, as she passed through Maryland, West Virginia, and Virginia. When asked to describe the vehicle and the driver, the woman told the police that the car was all white and had blue lights on top. She added that, at one point, the car’s driver used the lights to make his way through busy traffic.

According to the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office, the car was pulled over later that day by a Warrenton, police deputy. The driver, later identified as 28-year-old Jerry Lentz Saintvil, allegedly gave the arresting officer a fake ID.

More than that, the man claimed that the vehicle, a 2010 Chevrolet Impala, was not his. Saintvil declared that the car belongs to a movie company which recently used it to shot a music video. Indeed, as the authorities noted, the car had the word “police” written on its bank and front port and blue lights on top.

Conclusion

When confronted with tailgating the female driver, the Virginia man stated that he was driving home. A search of his vehicle revealed several police equipment lookalikes such as an airsoft gun, a tactical vest, a uniform, and a portable radio.
