Customer Gives Fast Food Worker $10,000 Mink Coat Because She Admired It

A woman named "Nadine" was at the drive-thru window at a Whataburger restaurant in Liberty, Texas, when a fast food worker, whose name is Cheryl Semien, complimented her on the luxurious grey mink coat she was wearing. What happened next is just astonishing. "The lady said that's a beautiful coat and she was so sweet. So I took it off and handed it to her through the drive-thru window," Nadine told the local ABC affiliate who tracked her down. The coat is valued at $10,000.

The Surveillance Cameras at Walmart are Some of the Best in the Business

We were going to give this our usual "Meanwhile, in Florida" header, but after watching this surveillance video of two donkeys feeble attempt to steal a toys from a Walmart in Lake Wales, Florida, we had to reconsider. Tarus Scott, 30, and Genard Dupree, 27, were arrested Tuesday on grand theft charges. The surveillance cameras showed the men walking through the store together and Tarus filled a shopping cart with a motorized power wheel Barbie car, Leap Frog tablet and a Barbie Glam vacation house. How do they intend to get away with this robbery you ask? As Genard made his way to the exit, Genard faked a heart attack, clutching his chest and falling to the floor. As concerned citizens checked on him, Tarus, who had recently been released from prison after serving 10 years for armed robbery, is seen walking out of the store with the cart filled with stolen goods. Shortly there after Genard "recovers" and walks out of the store. What are the lessons learned here: (1) Shoplifting never pays, (2) and your every move is being monitored in HD while at Walmart.

Black Man Jailed in NYC For Wearing Ring

In the wake of the no indictments in two high-profile killings of black men in America, comes this story of police overreach. A man in New York City whose name is Andre L Perry says he was arrested inside a subway station and spent a night in jail for wearing a two-finger ring, an overzealous police officer deemed to be a deadly weapon. Andre started a Kickstarter campaign (and uploaded to video of his arrest, below) seeking $6000 to fund his legal defense case and sue the pants off the NYPD and the City of New York for racial profiling and violation of his civil rights.

Here's the text of his Kickstarter campaign.

I hope this email finds everyone in great spirits. I am writing because I need your help. On March 30, 2013 at 5:05pm, I purchased a 2-finger ring from a vendor at Artist and Fleas in Williamsburg, BK. I fell in love with the ring and have worn it every day since. It's a fashion piece, like the various accessories I've purchased. On November 19, 2014, at 3:55 pm, I was arrested for possession of a deadly weapon with intent to use it. My two-finger ring was deemed a weapon--possibly because of the body who adorned it. That day I exited the L train at the 14th St Union Square station and transferred to the NRQ line heading towards Brooklyn. As I approached the stairs, I was greeted by two undercover officers. Officer Correa spoke to me first and told me that my ring was considered a deadly weapon. [...] After I was handcuffed, I was held in a holding cell then transferred to a booking cell where I spent the night. I was released on, 11/20, at 11:02 with a court appearance scheduled for 1/13. I am extremely devastated. I am tired of being profiled and deemed suspicious. I was profiled two years ago and my life was almost taken from me when an undercover cop chased me in my house and pulled a gun out because, again, I looked suspicious. I didn't file a legal complaint at the time because I knew the process would have been expensive and drawn out. This time I will do whatever it takes to file a lawsuit against the NYPD. I don't want to be injured or killed in order for my voice to be heard and justice served. Please help me raise money so I can hire a proper Criminal Attorney to drop this case and file a lawsuit against the NYPD. [...] If I don't hire an attorney to help me fight this case, the officer that arrested me won't think twice before he approaches the next individual or you.

Here's the video of his encounter with the cop and his subsequent arrest.
