Week in Review: Can't Stop, Won't Stop

Hey, boys and girls. Make it a great weekend. We'll be back Monday Tuesday. Join us.

While we're away, if you have a tip about a story or something we should look into, post or get a chuckle from, please direct it here.

Here are some of the week's lowlights (and some highlights, too).
  1. A lady, with her baby in tow, had sex with a prisoner on a city bus.
  2. Speaking of boning, almost all of the teachers at one high school are sleeping with their students.
  3. This lady was arrested after she stole 26 boxes of condoms -- and a pregnancy test.
  4. Checking into hotel this weekend? Read this.
  5. Wendy's talk show was renewed for two more seasons.
  6. The Girls Scouts told a boy he couldn't join -- even if he dresses as a girl.
  7. A donkey threatened to kill the mayor of NYC and governor of the state and, oh, yes, every single police officer.
  8. A donkey pretends to be deaf and mute so he wouldn't go to jail. FAIL!
  9. Women kicked in their neighbor's apartment and stole all of her furniture, which they then moved into their apartment. FAIL!
  10. A pimp got pimp smacked by the long arm of the law.
  11. These were the other videos and news stories that had us clutching our pearls: These ones, these ones, these featuring a pimp with a "Ho Hauler", and, of course, these.
  12. And then was a song made entirely of the craziest Mike Tyson quotes.

This Halloween costume is kinda amazing.




And...the library is open, bitches! Oprah assembles divas Patti, Aretha, Fantasia, Mariah, Beyoncé, Whitney, Rihanna and Dionne Warwick for a reading session.

If You Burglarize Your Next-Door Neighbor's Apartment, Don't Furnish Your Home With the Stolen Loot

In perhaps the boldest crime you'll read about today, a woman came home to find that her apartment was burglarized. When the victim went door to ask her neighbors if they saw or heard the thief as he kicked in her front door and walked away with all of her belongings, she was stunned to what she saw. The victim saw Crystal Jones, 20, (pictured above, left) and Angela Pittman, 26, (pictured, right) sitting on her stolen plaid couch. Her glass and wrought iron dining room set, coffee table and desk were also in the women's apartment. The brazen thieves were arrested and charged with burglary and felony theft. Memphis is officially giving Florida a run its money in the crazy department. If this didn't convince you, and this didn't, or this (we could go on for days) -- we don't know what will.

Man Petends to Be Deaf to Avoid Arrest

And now the Donkey of the Day... Last Saturday night, police in New Lenox Township, Illi., pulled over over a white Pontiac Grand Prix for crossed over the center lane three times. When the officer approached the driver Brandon Nesbitt, 22, and his passenger, Terrance Godfrey, 39, who were not wearing seat belts. As the officer began asking for IDs, Terrance began throwing up indistinguishable gang signs or hand gestures believed to be sign language. Brandon told the officer Terrance was "deaf and dumb." But when back-up arrived, he miraculously began hearing things. When he told to get out of the car, he did. When he was told to write down his name and date of birth down on piece of paper, he did. Then when he finally realized his cover the ruse was up, Terrance began speaking, giving officers a false name before attempting to flee, but cops soon found his wallet with an ID in the car. As it turns out, Terrance is thief who's currently on parole and is wanted for impersonating a police officer. He was arrested for obstructing justice and resisting arrest. Brandon was cited for traffic violations.


Actually, there are three donkeys today. Nicole Faccenda, 42, was arrested after she tried to hire a hit man to kill her ex-boyfriend's current girlfriend. Nicole said she had taken precautions to avoid being set up after watching several Lifetime Network movies. Now her attorneys are trying to make it seem as if she's crazy. She's crazy all right.




If there's anything we can learn from Mandy Marie Whaley is: don't try to rob a bank a whim. The 34-year-old, who's unemployed and down on her luck (but loves being on her back), walked into a Tacoma, Wash. bank last week to conduct business. Frankly, we don't know what sort of business she was there to conduct, but those phantom plans changed after she received a call from her daughter saying she needed money for school. Mandy quickly wrote a note demanding cash (or she'll shoot a bitch) and handed it to the teller. After the robbery, Mandy counted the money, but realized it was not enough to cover her bills -- including paying the electricity bill, which is about to be disconnected. After she was arrested, Mandy -- who has five kids and one grandchild -- initially told investigators she had no idea what they were talking about because she was not in the bank that day. Then they produced the surveillance tape and Mandy started talking. She told cops couldn't recall how much money she stole, but she spent $20 on two pizzas, $200 on Halloween costumes and another $100 at a nightclub. The rest of the money, she claims, was stolen by jumpoff she met at the club that night and brought back to her home. So, in lieu of paying her bills she bought Halloween costumes and went to a club? Yea, she's a donkey. Hee-haw!

Parents Who Often Bragged About Beating Their Kids Are Jailed + Halloween Hatred


Family and neighbors are shocked (shocked, we tell ya!) to learn that a Hampton, Ga. couple they describe as "deeply religious" and "weird" was beating their five kids' asses with extension cords and even locked their oldest child -- a 14-year-girl -- in the closet with no food and water. Police have swooped down on the family home and arrested Anthony and Tammy Irvin. They're charged with five counts of contributing to the deprivation of a minor, 10 counts of cruelty to children, four counts of battery and two counts of false imprisonment.

Feds Haul Brazen Pimp to Prison


And the Donkey of the Day is a genius named Sean Patrick. The 37-year-old Milwaukee man, who was pimping underage girls and sending them across state lines, was charged Wednesday with sex trafficking of children. And you wouldn't believe how he advertised. No, not Craigslist. Sean drove the girls around in a gold 1992 Chevrolet conversion van with the words "Ho Hauler" inscribed on it. We told you, you wouldn't believe it. In exchange for the van and a guilty plea, Sean will serve the rest of his life behind bars.

Man Who Threatened to Kill NY Elected Officials, Entire Police Force is Unsurprisingly an Idiot

And the Donkey of the Day is *drum roll* Frank Console! The 50-year-old from Brooklyn, NY who threaten to kill the kill the NYC mayor, governor of New York, and all the police on Staten Island pleaded guilty this afternoon to a felony count of first-degree falsely reporting an incident. He's truly a genius.
According to court papers, Console telephoned his first threat in to 911 on May 7. "My name is Frank Mitt Scotti Scalaquiti," those documents quote him as saying. "I want to kill the mayor and the governor, not the president. I have an AK47." He made the call from the St. George Ferry Terminal, police said. Two days later, he called 911 again, this time from a hospital in Queens, court papers allege, and said, "I want to kill the mayor, governor, and all the police on Staten Island." He made his final call on May 16 from near the Whitehall Ferry Terminal. "There is a bomb in the 120th Precinct," he allegedly said. Console was caught on video making the call, and police nabbed him after he rode the ferry to St. George, a law enforcement source said. The arresting officer, a detective in the NYPD Intelligence Division, recognized Console from past dealings with him, the source said. Console has contacted the Secret Service in the past as well, the source added.

The genius will be sentenced to two years in prison during a hearing next month. We don't have his mug shot, but we're sure it will be everywhere Thursday.

Hotel Worker: Sure, I'll Give You a Great Rate and Our Best Room With a View (Wink-Wink)


Oh, lawd! You know you already have to worry about bed bugs and finding used condoms in your hotel room, but now you also have to think someone is sitting in between the walls pleasuring themselves as they watch you use the bathroom. That's what happened to a family who checked into a motel in Albuquerque, NM in April 2010. According to the family, the desk clerk promised the a special room and rate, which they gladly welcomed. But the next morning after the family (which included the parents and their 8-year-old daughter and a 17-year-old son) took their showers, they started hearing strange sounds coming from the bathroom. The father went to to investigate and that's when he saw a hole right under the faucet -- and an eye looking right back at him! He heard yelling and screaming as the person in the wall tried to escape. The family has filed a lawsuit against the motel management, employees Sanketkunar Bhakta, Gibi George and Sergio Gonzales -- who were heard scurrying from behind the wall -- claiming negligence and invasion of privacy.

Girl Scouts Deny Boy's Application


Little Bobby Montoya is adorable. Recently, the 7-year-old's -- who's transgender and has been wearing girls clothing since age 2-- mother tried to enroll Bobby in the Girl Scouts but the troop leader rejected his application, saying: "It doesn't matter how he looks, he has boy parts, he can't be in Girl Scouts." Bobby was devastated, telling KUSA: "It was like somebody told me I can't like girl stuff, and I have to change my name to something else." Bobby said. Since Bobby's parents began kicking up some dust, the Girl Scouts had a change of heart.

Lady Cited For Arranging Conjugal Visit With Inmate on City Bus

And now let's hand a Mother of the Year award to Amanda Louise Confer of Pennsylvania, shall we? While Amanda isn't as bad a parent as this lady (at least not to our knowledge), the 24-year-old was cited last August for having sex with her jailbird baby daddy on a city bus while her infant daughter looked on. According to a police report obtained by The Smoking Gun, Amanda boarded the bus about 4:15pm that evening and met up with Randell Peterson and Joshua Schill -- who are "pre-release inmates" on a work release program that allows inmates to come and go from the county jail at specified times. She immediately sat down next to Randell in the back of the bus. The couple began to hug and kiss then Amanda gave Randell a professional. “After a couple of minutes of oral sex,” Detective Alberto Diaz reported, Amanda “lowered her underwear” and, “upon sitting on” Randell's lap, “both defendants proceeded to have sexual intercourse for several minutes.” After he splashed off, Randell and Joshua -- who was holding the baby and serving as a lookout during the, ahem, tryst -- exited the bus, while a supposedly satisfied Amanda continued on. Since the, ahem, tryst was captured by the bus surveillance camera, Amanda and Randell were easily identified and the couple admitted to their public encounter and was charged earlier this month with conspiracy, indecent exposure, open lewdness, and disorderly conduct. Those are their mugshots, above. Sidebar: This is her Facebook page. She's quite the lady. She's even threatening to press charges against "everyone involved." Everyone, like who? The city? The police? The press? Yeah, good luck with that, girl.

Lady Suspects Man is Sleeping With Her Girlfriend, She Shoots Up His House + Others Losing Control


Well, OK, "shoots up" is a stretch, but the woman did shoot at the house of a man she thought was sleeping with her girlfriend and smashed his car window with a baseball bat. This all went down in Jones, Okla. last night. According to police, the unnamed woman is facing charges of discharging a firearm in city limits. Here's an interesting fact: The man the woman was trying to shoot is the neighbor of her girlfriend's ex-husband. A mess! We thought the memo was already out: lesbians don't like to share.



Meanwhile, in Scottsdale, Ariz. woman 45-year-old Julie Kuhns arrested for shooting her boyfriend in the chest following a verbal altercation. During an interview with detectives, Julie said she and the victim have been involved in a 2-year-long romantic relationship, despite the fact that he is still married and lives with his wife. She said he would come over to her house about once a day and sometimes spend the night. She told police the man became angry at her on Monday after she spilled coffee. Julie told police said she "had it" with his yelling and "wanted him to stop" -- so she grabbed the .22-caliber gun she kept in a kitchen drawer. She pulled the trigger, and it struck the victim in the upper chest. She said she didn't know the gun was loaded and only wanted to "scare" him with the gun. The victim told her to call 911, and she did. Prior to police arrival, she changed her clothes, washed her hands, and put her gun back in its resting place.

Safety First, Pay Later

Alexandrea Brooks is facing shoplifting charges after she pilfered 26 boxes of condoms and an at-home pregnancy test from a Walgreens in Marietta, Ga. last month. According to store employees, Alexandrea entered the store Sept. 11, filled a shopping basket with $562.68 worth of condoms and marched out the front door. She got into a vehicle, and the driver took off, but not before workers wrote down a tag number. Police eventually tracked down the driver, who gave police Alexandrea’s name. Among the items stolen were: 5 boxes of Trojan Magnum gold collection condoms, 1 box of Trojan Ultra Ribbed Condoms, 5 boxes of Trojan Magnum Ecstasy Condoms, 6 boxes of Trojan Magnum fire/ice Condoms, 6 boxes of Trojan Magnum Thin Condoms, 2 boxes of Trojan Magnum Lube, 1 box of Trojan Ultra Thin/ Sens Condoms, Walgreens Organic Cotton Balls, Huggies Natural Care wipes, and a First Response Digital Ovulation Test Kit.

At One Memphis High School, Teaching is the Last Thing on Teachers' Minds


A lot of teachers know better than to engage in a sexual relationship with a student. Even the dumbest of them know that if you commit the egregious AND illegal act, you do it behind the cafeteria or in your car or at a budget motel. April Wade, 34, is not one of those teacher. She's a donkey. The Spanish teacher at Sheffield high School in Memphis, Tenn. is accused of having sex with a 17-year-old student, whom she moved into her home a year ago. April who has two young children, 2 and 8., is the ninth -- yes, ninth -- teacher at that high school to engage in an inappropriate relationship with a student within the last year, was arrested last Friday and charged with statutory rape by an authority figure and is currently free on bond.

'Wendy Williams Show' Renewed Through 2014

Congratulations are in order for Wendy. Debmar-Mercury and the Fox Television Stations announced today they are renewing The Wendy Williams Show for two more seasons -- through 2014 -- on Fox-owned stations. "Wendy is delivering a great show every day that stands out from the pack and continues to grow creatively," Frank Cicha, Fox's senior vice president of programming and Mort Marcus and Ira Bernstein, co-presidents of Debmar-Mercury said. "This season's episodes are fresh, funny and star-studded, and her must-see 'Hot Topics' segments are simply compelling. With viewers, audiences and affiliate stations embracing her show more than ever, we believe that the franchise is still poised for additional growth." While the show is one of the lowest-rated talk shows in syndication (averaging about 1.0), it slays on Fox -- especially in NYC, where it's the number one rated program among women 25-54 for the entire day (except in prime time where Idol, et al. rule).

Oh, look! It's Dem Babies! Six months after their birth, Mariah Carey revealed the faces of her twins Moroccan and Monroe -- whom she calls "Roc" and "Roe" -- during an exclusive interview with ABC News' Barbara Walters. During the chat, Mariah admitted to having suffered a miscarriage in 2009 and spoke candidly about her high-risk pregnancy: “The main thing I did that was tough, was to go on progesterone like every month… and then when I was pregnant, I had to stay with the progesterone for 10 weeks,” she said. “It minimizes the chance of miscarriage by 50 percent.” Mariah says she instructed husband, Nick Cannon, to play the live version of her song "Fantasy" in the operating room as the babies were delivered via Cesarean section.

Woman Whose Mom Sold Her For Drugs As a Child, Reunites With Long-Lost Sisters


A woman who was sold as a baby by her drug-addicted mother 22 years ago has been reunited with the two sisters she never knew she had. As a child, Tiera Rice said she knew the people who raised her weren't her biological parents, but when she broached the subject, the couple she'd known as mom and dad brushed off her questions. That all changed when she was 15 and the woman Tiera thought was her mother died of a drug overdose. "They said they were sorry to tell me that my mom had died and my dad wasn't my dad, my mother wasn't my mother, and I'm not Candace Flores," Tiera tells WSB. She said the man who raised her told her there was no point trying to find her biological mother (she died in prison while serving time for murder), that she had sold her long ago for drugs. "They told me that they had heard I had been sold and my mom wasn't a good person, that I didn't need to be with her anyway 'cause they are bad people," she said. That prompted Tiera to begin a search to find her true identity, but didn't make any leeway until last summer when she couldn't get an ID card from the Department of Motor Vehicles because she didn't have a birth certificate. Shortly there after she hired a private detective. And as they say, the rest is history.

Beyoncé Bumpgate: Mathew Knowles Wanted Beyoncé, Jay-Z to Raise His Illegitimate Son As Their Own

For the past few weeks, the Internet (and, to our surprise, legitimate media outlets) have been discussing in length Beyoncé's here today, gone tomorrow baby bump. Now, how's this for the rumor mill. Alexsandra Wright, 40, who is Mathew Knowles' jumpoff and baby mama, is now claiming Mathew "asked her to hand over the child they conceived during their affair" for Beyonce and her husband, Jay-Z, to raise as their own -- and she has the whole proposition thing on tape!
Alexsandra recalled: "My first thought when he asked me if I would give up our child to Beyonce and Jay-Z was, 'Are you out of your mind?' The actress, who gave birth to son Nixon on February 4 last year after her 18-month extramarital affair with Beyonce's father and former manager ended, added: "Nothing in the world, no amount of money would make me give up my child, you can't buy my child from me!" "Maybe Mathew thought money could buy anything," she added. Alexsandra, who says she recorded her conversation with Mathew, then went on to ponder: "I don't know why he suggested it." When that peculiar suggestion was rebuffed, Mathew then allegedly went on to offer the new mother money to leave his name off the birth certificate. She rebuffed this offer, too....Alexsandra, who claimed that Mathew 'prayed for a boy' and desperately wanted the child, says she believes that Beyonce knew nothing of her father's strange scheme. "I don't believe that Beyonce or anybody else has a clue about what was flying out of Mathew's mouth," she insisted. I don't think it was anybody but Mathew."

This sounds absolutely insane. But, we wait with bated breath for Mathew's response. Sidebar: That's Alexsandra and baby Nixon, above.

Man Banned From Possessing More Than 10 Avocados at a Time

A man who pleaded guilty to grand theft for stealing 1,000 pounds of avocados -- worth an estimated $1,500 -- from a grove in Bonsall, Calif. was sentenced to three years probation on Thursday. Barron Stein, 44, of Fallbrook was captured on surveillance cameras stealing the fruit on March 15. He told police he was going to sell the fruit to help support his family. As part of his three-year probation sentence, Barron is banned from possessing more than 10 avocados at any time. “Somebody can have guacamole, they can avocados on their sandwiches, but they cannot have a commercial quantity of avocados on their person,” said agriculture crime prosecutor Liz Silva. “It would be a violation of their probation.” If caught with more than 10 avocados, Barron could face up to six months in jail.

The One About a Father's Undying Love, Determination


This story about William Alexander Sr. will break your heart. After his son was murdered in April 2010 and cops couldn't find the killer, William made it his mission to find the shooter. He plastered pictures of his son's face throughout Miami and offered a reward for an arrest. But two month later, the unthinkable happened. A man approached William and asked: "You still looking for me?" To which William replied: "Look for who? The only person I am looking for is the guy that killed my son." The man pulled out a gun and shot William five times in the legs and back. He spent three months in a coma and lost his legs to diabetes, but William's life mission isn't done. He's remains resolute in his goal to find the man who took his son's life and shot him.

Lady Admits To Giving Her Kids Beer, Cocaine

Juliette Dunn (pictured), of Bridgeport, Conn. mother has pleaded guilty to charges that she forced her 4-year-old son to drink beer and gave her 10-month-old daughter beer and cocaine. Juliette Dunn and a "female companion" (read: her girlfriend), 33-year-old Lisa Jefferson, pleaded guilty to risk of injury on Wednesday.
According to police, on June 28 officers were patrolling Success Village when they were waved down by a neighbor who complained that a mother was feeding her children beer on the playground. Police said they spotted Dunn and Jefferson sitting in folding chairs at the playground, the young children on the ground next to them. As officers approached them, police said they spotted an empty 40-ounce bottle of Steel reserve beer on the ground beside the boy. They said a baby bottle next to the baby contained a dark liquid that smelled strongly of an alcohol beverage. Dunn was identified as the childrens' mother. Police said witnesses told them that Jefferson had handed the bottle of beer to the boy and ordered him to chug it. When he had finished it police said Jefferson called the boy an alcoholic. Both children were taken to Bridgeport Hospital where police said both the boy and girl tested positive for alcohol and the 10-month-old also had cocaine in her system. While being examined police said the 4-year-old told a social worker he likes, "Natural Ice beer, Budweiser beer, but didn't like the taste of Dog-Bite beer." Police continued that Dunn told them Jefferson gives her son a bottle of beer every day but she didn't know how her 10-month-old daughter tested positive for cocaine since she doesn't breast feed her.

The children are currently in foster care. When they're sentenced in December, Juliette and Lisa could be sent to jail for a maximum of two years. She wins the Mother of the Year Award, hands down.

Man Kidnaps Ex-Girlfriend While She's On a Date With Another Man

Kristopher O’Neal, 31, is facing kidnapping charges after he abducted his ex-girlfriend 3:30am Thursday in Fresno, Texas. According to reports, the woman had gone to a convenience store with a date. While the new boyfriend was inside paying for gas, another patron walked into the store and told him an unknown man had hit his date, taken her out of the car and forced her into another vehicle. The new man then gave chase and quickly spotted a police officer and told him about the abduction. The woman was apparently injured during the abduction, so Kristopher took her to a hospital, where he was arrested. The woman remains hospitalized. Her name, condition and the type of her injuries have not been released.

Wells Fargo Leaks Customers' Personal Information


If you're a Wells Fargo Bank customer in Florida or South Carolina, monitor your accounts and order a credit report freeze, because your personal information has been compromised. The bank has created a major snafu, sending other customer's bank statements to other customers. In a statement, a bank spokesperson said: "I don't have a number of customers that may have received incorrect information. But, we believe only a small percentage of customers who opened their accounts in South Carolina are affected." That sounds like a lot of people to us, and the bank is trying to cover their butts. Wells Fargo says the error occurred because of an in-house printer malfunctioned as September statements were being printed. They're planning to give all affected customers one year’s free identification theft protection.

WATCH: Druggie Granny, History Lesson, Baby Scam


Poor Judy Weible. Like the out of control old people we've featured in the past weeks, the 61-year-old granny from Jackson, Miss. needs Jesus. Earlier this week she tried to offload about 30 hydrocodone pills and called the potential buyer incessantly. When the person didn't respond, she began to text him. What she didn't know is she was calling and texting the wrong number; it belonged to a cop, who swooped in and arrested her for being a donkey.


For two days, 52-year-old William Hinds taunted 911 dispatchers, calling the emergency number 117 times. He was drunk. Yes, for two days straight. Police really got concerned when he called, claiming he just shot his wife and another man. When police responded, they found no bodies, but did find plenty of empty beer bottles. But it gets better: As police were placing him under arrest, William escaped.




Meanwhile in Rossville, Ga., a woman went on tirade about slavery, immigration, etc. because workers at a Kwik-E-Mart charged her $0.15 for a glass of water. We doubt she even knows what she's talking about.

Residents want a Tampa nightclub shuttered -- and we can see why, they have very lax security and more than 50 violent crimes have been committed there since since 2002, including a murder last month.





Police have arrested 4 people in connection with a panhandling scam to solicit money to pay for an infant's funeral. The thing is: there was no dead baby. Heather Nichols, 21, Catherine Mendez, 22, Chasity Doll, 20, and Jamari Carter, 26, were all arrested. Police say the group made from $700 to $1,400 a day and had been ongoing for six months to a year in San Diego, Modesto and Arizona.

Couple Married for 72 Years Dies Hand in Hand

This is a true love story. An Iowa couple married 72 years died one hour apart holding hands on Monday after a tragic car crash. Since the day they were married on May 26, 1939, Norma and Gordon Yeager were always together. Their son, Dennis, says his parents believed in their marital vows of "till death do you part."
Dennis Yeager said the couple left home last Wednesday to go into town, but they didn't make it. At the intersection of Highway 30 and Jessup Avenue just west of Marshalltown, state troopers said Gordon pulled in front of an oncoming car. The Iowa State Patrol crash report said the other driver attempted to avoid the crash but was unable to stop in time. "I rushed from Des Moines where I was working and saw them in the hospital," said Dennis Yeager. In the intensive care unit of Marshalltown's hospital, nurses knew not to separate Gordon and Norma. "They brought them in the same room in intensive care and put them together -- and they were holding hands in ICU. They were not really responsive," said Dennis Yeager. Gordon died at 3:38 p.m. holding hands with his wife as the family they built surrounded them. "It was really strange, they were holding hands, and dad stopped breathing but I couldn't figure out what was going on because the heart monitor was still going," said Dennis Yeager. "But we were like, he isn't breathing. How does he still have a heart beat? The nurse checked and said that's because they were holding hands and it's going through them. Her heart was beating through him and picking it up." "They were still getting her heartbeat through him," said Donna Sheets. At 4:38 p.m., exactly one hour after Gordon died, Norma passed too. "Neither one of them would've wanted to be without each other. I couldn't figure out how it was going to work," said Donna Sheets. "We were very blessed, honestly, that they went this way." "They just loved being together," said Dennis Yeager. At their funeral on Monday, Norma and Gordon held hands in their casket. Family said they will be cremated and their ashes mixed together.

We all should be so lucky to experience this kind of love. Norma was 90 and Gordon was 94. May they rest in peace.

Stop Us If You've Heard This One Before: Bishop Eddie Long Gets Sued Again (Update: The Feds Launched Investigation)


Bishop Eddie Long, the How You Doin pastor who coerced at least five young boys into sexual relations (and paid them at least $1.5 million to drop their cases), is getting sued. Again. In addition to those suits, a woman sued him for $78 million in 2010 for unlawful incarceration and another for sexual harassment. Now, 10 current and former members at his megachurch in Atlanta have filed a lawsuit accusing Bishop Eddie Long of encouraging them to invest with Ephren Taylor, a crook running a Ponzi scheme. The plaintiffs claim they've lost more than $1 million in the shady dealings -- some where hoodwinked into buying sweepstakes vending terminals while others invested in self-directed retirement accounts. The plaintiffs claim Bishop Long received a cut of each investment. Suffice it to say, none of of the plaintiffs saw a return on their investment or received the vending terminals, so they're suing Bishop Long, Ephren (who was arrested in Virginia Beach last year for running an illegal gambling operation) and his shady companies for an unspecified amount in damages. The plaintiffs claim Bishop Long profited


Update: Lillian Wells -- a current member of Bishop Long's church -- who sings in the choir and even volunteers says she lost more than a $120,000, her entire life savings.



UPDATE 2, Oct. 21: The Secret Service, IRS are now involved and agents have seized laptops from employees at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. This is not good news for Bishop Long or his church.

Man Sues Bone Thugs-N-Harmony For Assault

Did you know the iconic rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony is still touring? Well, apparently they are and they're disciplining their own fans. According to a lawsuit, Joseph E. Zeidel claims a the leader of the rap group attacked him on the group’s tour bus after their June 10 show at the Congress Theater in Chicago. Joseph says he and his cousin attended the show and paid a person believed to be the band’s tour manager a total of $80 to board the bus for a “meet and greet” and “autographs from the band members.” They were on the bus for about 30 minutes engaging in small talk with various band members and getting several autographs when Bryon “Bizzy Bone” McCane (pictured) became belligerent and imposing and told them to leave the bus. Joseph says Bizzy Bone struck Zeidel in the face and head twice, causing him to suffer a fracture and cut nose, broken glasses and other injuries. Plus, he claims he suffered “extreme emotional embarrassment and trauma, with dozens of people watching.” Not only Joseph suing Bizzy Bone, he's suing the other two members of the group, their record label, the theater and pretty much everyone related to the group or the events of that night. He's seeking more than $1.2 million in damages.

Man Orders Size 14.5 Slipper, Gets Size 1,450 Instead

A 27-year-old British man named Tom Boddingham -- who has a size 13 right foot and 14.5 right foot -- recently ordered a custom slipper from a factory in China, but someone misread "size 14.5" and instead built a size 1,450 measuring 7ft long. Uh-oh! "I reckon I must be the owner of the biggest slipper in the world," Tom says. "I'm going to sell it online and if I can make a few quid out of it then all the better." We know why you're asking yourself why a grown man is doing ordering fuzzy slippers (we haven't a clue), but in case you're wondering why the factory made a size 1,450 slipper without asking questions, a spokesman said and employee failed to spot a decimal point in his order and they thought the slipper was for a store window display. They also apologized for the error and plans to send Tom the right sized slipper.

Woman Jailed For Two Months Because Her Name is 'Teresa'


Teresa Culpepper is about to come into some money. Lots of it -- because Atlanta police are terrible at their job. Last August, Teresa says she called police to report her truck was stolen, but when cops arrived, they arrested her, claiming there was outstanding warrant for her for aggravated assault. She spent 53 days in jail. Here's the thing: The wanted woman had a different last name, date of birth and physical description. Pretty much the only thing Teresa has in common with the perp (who's an honest lady) is their race. Teresa start thinking how you gon' spend that money now, cause that check is on its way.

UPDATE Dec, 2: Shock! Teresa has sued.






Meanwhile, in Texas City, Texas, an 11-year-old boy was struck by a car while walking to school. He picked himself up and dusted himself off. The driver was given a ticket for having an an invalid license and the 11-year-old boy? Well, he got a ticket, too. For walking on the wrong side of the street at the time of the accident. Wait, what?

Actress Slaps Amazon With $1 Million Lawsuit For Publishing Her Real Age

An unnamed Asian-American actress has slapped Amazon with a civil suit, claiming the online retailer used her credit card details, obtained when she purchased an "industry insider" package from the Web site then posted her real age IMDb, the internet movie database which is owned by Amazon. The 40-year-old, who "looks so much younger than her actual age" and lives in Texas, says the publication of her real age has cost her jobs.
The actress, who uses an Americanized stage name to avoid the “cultural disadvantage” of her real Asian name, says that the credit-card interception is the only way the company could have learned her real age. She says IMDb refuses to remove her birth date from her profile and that she has since lost work because “lesser-known 40-year-old actresses are not in demand in the movie business.” The actress says that Amazon’s conduct amounts to fraud and breach of contract in light of an IMDb subscriber agreement that promises credit-card information will be encrypted and that Amazon will handle personal information “carefully and sensibly.” The lawsuit, which seeks $75,000 plus $1 million in punitive damages, also says Amazon breached the state of Washington’s privacy and consumer protection laws. This is not the first time that Amazon has been sued for allegedly revealing personal details about an actress. Eriko Tamuro, a Los Angeles woman was once a Britney Spears-like teen idol in Tokyo, settled a lawsuit with IMDb in 2007 after the site posted her real name and birth date.

Who could this be? This should be easy to figure out, because, really, how many Asian actresses live in Texas? But alas, we've did a quick search, but couldn't find a match. Sidebar: We don't believe this woman actually lives in Texas, She probably just owns a home there and decided to file the case in that jurisdiction to get some anonymity.


Here's the filing.
