  • Mr. Do arrested in craigslist sting

    Police nab Reston man in online child sex sting:

    Police in Fairfax, Virginia have arrested Bao Duc Do of Reston, Va. for responding to a craigslist ad that was placed by Fairfax police. The problem with that is that the advertisement was an ad Fairfax police were using in a sting to flush out sexual predators.

    The phony ad hinted that a man was willing to rent out his juvenile daughters for sex. When Mr. Do responded to the ad he discussed prices and terms with the ‘father’ of the girls. He negotiated a price of $150/hr. for an 11-year-old girl. When he was arrested at the pre-arranged meeting place he had $800 on him so he was planning on at least 5 hours with the girl.

    What I’d like to know is how did the police department’s ad even make it on to craigslist. I thought craigslist users are supposed to flag any ad that may be for illegal activity. Again I ask how’s that working out?

  • Enough Already

    I’d like to address all the Columbine conspiracy theorists out there. Please stop contacting me. I have no time for your bullshit theories. I am a firm believer in Occam’s Razor. The obvious answer is usually the correct one.

    The Columbine shootings were only carried out by two people, the cowardly scumbags Harris and Klebold. There were no additional gunmen. Police did not shoot any of the victims.

    Please remove your Reynolds Wrap chapeaus, get out of mom’s basement and leave me alone.

  • Schallenberger trial delayed again

    Teen’s trial in school bomb case again delayed:

    The trial for 18-year-old Ryan Schallenberger has been delayed once again. If you’ll recall Schallenberger was the teen who was allegedly plotting an attack on Chesterfield High School in South Carolina. The plot unraveled when his parents discovered a package of ammonium nitrate that was delivered to his house.

    According to Schallenberger’s own journals, he admired the Columbine killers and was jealous of all the ‘cool kids’. He also wanted to go to heaven after he committed his attack so he could kill Jesus.

    The trial is being delayed once again at the request of the prosecution and the defense. The defense needs more time to confer with their client after months of psych evals requested by the prosecution.

    Since Schallenberger received the ammonium nitrate through the mail this is being tried in Federal Court.

    The trial is slated to start in March.

  • Petaluma teacher pleads not guilty

    Teacher pleads not guilty in MySpace messaging case:

    I originally posted about Scott Dietlin here. He’s the teacher from Petaluma, California who was caught sending sexually explicit messages to a 15-year-old girl named Jackie on MySpace. ‘Jackie’ was actually a group of kids who set up a fake profile but attracted Dietlin’s attention.

    Tuesday Dietlin pleaded not guilty to the charges against him and is still being held on $700K bond.

    He’s looking at 5 years behind bars.

  • Michele Cossey sentenced

    Pa. mom sentenced for helping son get weapons:

    Michele Cossey, the mother of Dillon Cossey, was sentenced to four months in prison and five years probation. If you’ll recall Dillon Cossey was arrested for plotting an attack against Plymouth-Whitemarsh High School outside of Philadelphia even though he was homeschooled. Michele Cossey bought her underage son one of the guns that he planned on using.

    Even after Dillon Cossey was sentenced his mom still showed spoiling tendencies by smuggling fast food into her son while he was in detention.

    For once I’m actually glad to see a parent being held responsible for allowing their kid to plot a school attack.

  • Nexopia predator getting light sentence

    Tough sentence sought for Calgary internet predator:

    I originally posted about Matthew Allan Armstrong here. He’s the slimeball from Calgary who used to Nexopia to try to set up meetings with underage girls. Armstrong is 27.

    He approached a 14-year-old girl, a 15-year-old girl, a 19-year-old girl who posed as a 13-year-old girl ala To Catch a Predator and a 13-year-old girl who was actually a police detective.

    He even met the 14-year-old and had sex with her in a train station restroom. Classy.

    He sent messages to over 100 girls on Nexopia with over 532 pages of chats. When underage girls would tell him their age he would say ‘age is just a number’. That’s the motto of the child predator.

    So what is he looking at for all these offenses? 18-24 months and his lawyer is trying to get him time served. His lawyer says that Armstrong has a form of muscular dystrophy which affects his judgment. That fact that he says age is just a number tells me that he knew exactly what he was doing and 18-24 months is a joke for an obvious serial predator.

  • How to stop craigslist harassment

    How Do I Stop a Cyberstalking Ex:

    I get this question a lot actually. Someone sends me an e-mail saying that their ex or some other unscrupulous person is posting ads about them in craigslist’s erotic services section along with the victim’s personal information. Then they start getting all sorts of harassing phone calls and e-mails.

    This article from PCMag lays out the steps you need to take to get the harassment to stop.

  • Blood drinking goth girl Danielle Black to be charged as an adult

    Daughter of stabbing victim to be charged as adult, state’s attorney says:

    Alleged blood drinking goth girl Danielle Black is going to be charged as an adult in the plot to kill her father.

    If you’ll recall 15-year-old Black asked a classmate to kill her father claiming that her father was abusing her. Instead, a third person, 19-year-old Alec Eger, was the one who stabbed Billy Lee Black to death.

    Allegedly Black was upset that her dad didn’t like her hanging out with her alleged blood drinking friends.

  • Cho e-mails released

    Va. Tech Campus Paper Posts E-mails To and About Gunman Online:

    The Virginia Tech student newspaper, The Collegiate Times, has made public e-mails concerning Virginia Tech gunman Cho Seung Hui. The e-mails were originally released only to the families of the victims and Collegiate Times editor-in-chief David Grant won’t say how the paper came to be in possession of them. Some are criticizing the Times for making these public stating it’s disrespectful to the families but the Times has not made any family information publicly available.

    The e-mails between Cho and Virginia Tech faculty can be seen here. E-mails between faculty members about Cho can be read here.

    In my opinion there really isn’t anything new in these e-mails that we didn’t already know. They further show just how selfish Cho was and how he blamed his failures and shortcomings on others.

    He had trouble speaking in public yet he chose to become an English major. He was failing some of his courses but he blamed that on the professors. The professors offered him every opportunity to help him bring his grades up but he kept wanting to do things his way. They offered him advice on how to get over his problems with public speaking. They were legitimately concerned about his mental health. No one can say that Cho was a victim.

    He lived his life the same way he took so many others. An egotistical and selfish punk who thought it was all about him with no regard for anyone else but himself.

  • Casey Anthony’s Facebook…again

    Does facebook play a role in Caylee Anthony’s disappearance?:

    From the ridiculous to the sublime. The Casey Anthony story still keeps getting the fine tooth comb treatment from the media. This time it’s about Facebook again.

    Apparently, some woman from Ontario (not sure if that’s Canada or not) has contacted Orlando police stating that Casey Anthony’s Facebook had a message that said she lost some duct tape that she borrowed from a friend.

    As I’m sure most of you know a child’s body that could be Caylee Anthony was found in a trash bag wrapped with duct tape.

    I’m not saying this isn’t a significant find that could help put Casey Anthony away for life or am I detracting from the woman’s find. I’m just so sick of the media saturation of this case while another missing child by the name of Giovanni Gonzalez goes almost unheard. Maybe if Giovanni received this kind of media attention then people from other countries could find clues for his disappearance too.
