    Schallenberger is looking at a max of 40 years in federal prison.

  • Hans Reiser tries to make deal

    Hans Reiser Offers To Lead Cops to Nina’s Body:

    I love how a metric assload of people said that there was no way they could convict Hans Reiser because there was no body. I love how they said how that he didn’t do it. I love how they said that he was convicted solely because he’s a geek.

    Now they’re all silent because their hero is now trying to make a deal to get his sentence reduced if he shows them his wife’s body.

  • FL teacher has sex with four teens

    Polk teacher arrested on sex charges:

    From the same Florida county that brought us the Victoria Lindsay beating comes this story about a teacher hat strayed from the path.

    32-year-old Danielle Jones of Stanbaugh Middle School in Auburndale, Florida has been arrested for having sex with at least four teenagers.

    She would use MySpace to contact at least two of the teens, ages 14 and 15, who were also her students, then bring them to her house. And by two teens yes I mean both of them and yes she had sex with both of them.

    Then her first two victims introduced her to two more teens, age 16, who were not her students. And yes, she had sex with them as well. In one instance all four teens spent the night at her house so you can imagine that scene.

    There may be a fifth teen involved as well.

    According to Wikipedia Florida’s age of consent goes like this…

    By law, the exception permits an adult under the age of 24 to engage in legal sexual activity with a minor no younger than the age of 16.

    Which means if you’re older than 24, which she is, your partner can be no younger than 18.

    This woman is nothing more than a serial sexual predator who abused her position of authority to get what she wanted. However, since her victims were horny teen boys she’ll more than likely receive no actual punishment whatsoever. Even though it’s cliche at this point it still needs to be reiterated that if she were a man there would be a mob wanting to feed her to the gators.

    Then again she doesn’t look like a pole dancer like Debra LeFave so she might actually have to serve some time.

    Let’s hear it for double standards.

  • The Smoking Gun on Lee Billi and Russel Frantom

    “I Wanna Break The Current Shooting Record”:

    The Smoking Gun has pictures of the search warrant affidavit used to seize evidence from Lee Billi. It also lists evidence that was seized from his MySpace pal Russell Frantom.

    The page that particularly drew my attention was this one that has some of Russell Frantom’s ramblings from his journal. Typical ravings from a mutant.

  • Instant Recognition

    Boy wrote of desire to kill many at Indiana school:

    The teen accused in the plot against Penn High School, Russell Frantom, wrote in his notebook that he wanted instant recognition for breaking the “school shooting record”.

    “I wanna break the current shooting record. I wanna get instant recognition. The only thing that stops me is the fact of being put in jail forever, or having to kill myself, or getting killed by an officer. I could kill anyone without feeling sorry because society sucks!!!”

    According to the article, he started having these kinds of violent thoughts after his girlfriend broke up with him.

    Just like every shooter and would be shooter before him he’s a selfish prick with the emotional stability of a marshmallow and an inflated sense of entitlement. When parents and educators coddle kids like Frantom they end up believing that nothing bad is ever supposed to happen to them. When it finally does this the result.

    Life is hard and it’s not fair, deal with it.

  • An open letter to blog developers

    Can we please get a standard export format for blogs. If I want to export from WordPress to Serendipity or vice versa I should be able to without having to chew off my arm in frustration. Keeping bloggers trapped to your format doesn’t help anyone.

  • Mercades’ request to go public denied

    Judge: Teen beating suspect can’t talk about case:

    Yesterday I posted about how alleged beating ringleader Mercades Nichols requested from a judge to be able to travel to tell the world her story and apologize. That request has been…DENIED!!!

    Her house arrest has been partially lifted allowing her to go to school, work, church, etc.

    Mercades’ mom chimes in…

    After the hearing, Nichols mother said that her daughter wanted to be able to issue an apology, and that’s why she made the request to change her restrictions. She also expressed that she disagrees with the judge’s decision.

    “She wanted to get her side out there, and I just think that it’s unfair that everyone else is having to talk about my daughter,” said Christina Garcia, Nichols’ mother.

    Oh, I think that we’ve already seen your daughter’s side. And if you didn’t want people to talk about her then she shouldn’t have beaten Victoria Lindsay and had one of her dumbass friends record it. See how that works?

  • Victoria Lindsay video transcript

    If you can’t get enough of the Victoria Lindsay story reader Allen Singer has transcribed the entire second video.

    It’s even more appalling to actually read the words.

    Thanks, Allen.

  • Mercades Nichols wants to go public

    Beating Suspect Wants to Go Public:

    The alleged ringleader in the recorded beating of Victoria Lindsay wants permission from the court to go public with her story.

    Mercades Nichols, one of eight teens charged as adults in the March beating of 16-year-old Victoria Lindsay, wants permission to talk publicly about the case and travel out of state to give interviews, according to a written request filed in Circuit Court.

    Nothing good can come from this.

    Allegedly Nichols wants to give “public apologies” to the media.

    I wonder how much she’d be paid for those “apologies”.

  • Nexopia date rapists sentenced

    Rapists will do years in prison:

    Back in March, I posted about Ali Saadatmandi and Ali Tayyebi, two accused date rapists from British Columbia who used Nexopia to find their victim.

    At the time of that post, I hoped that they would be put away for a long time. No such luck.

    Saadatmandi got only four years while Tayyebi only got three.

    I’d like to hear from my Canadian readers. Is this the kind of sentence you think these sexual predators should have received?
