How Islamic terrorists beheaded a British soldier on a London street in broad daylight

This is the moment two terrorists who butchered soldier Lee Rigby also tried to kill a hero woman cop who was first on the scene of the carnage.           

Shocking footage obtained by the Daily Mirror shows how the calculating pair lured officers to the scene by dragging the body into the middle of the road and brazenly waiting for armed police to arrive.

When the first police car arrived the pair split up in a pre-planned manoeuvre with knife-wielding Michael Adebolajo charging them head-on, while his accomplice ran up alongside, aiming his revolver at them.

The film of the 10 seconds of terror show how Adebolajo got within TWO FEET of the terrified female cop who was driving the armed response vehicle.

She was armed with just a Taser as she sat in the driver’s seat of the BMW X5 and was only saved when a male colleague sitting in the back made a split-second decision to fire his machine-gun from point blank range through the window.

As he is sent sprawling to the ground by the force of the two shots and the two cops jump out to cover him they appear to fail to spot the other suspect aiming his hand gun at them.

Luckily a third SO19 marksman running round from the far side of the specialist Trojan unit spots him and he is brought to the ground as a further volley of six shots ring out in the suburban street in Woolwich, south east London.

Former Det Ch Ins Peter Kirkham, an expert in firearms tactics said after watching the footage today: “ I have never seen anything like this before, or even heard of it happening before.

"For two suspects to carry out a brutal attack like this then stand around in plain sight waiting for the police is crazy.

“The instant the spot the police car come round the corner they are on it straight away. The first one is sprinting full speed towards the cops before they have even got out the car.

"The female officer only has her Taser out and must have been terrified. They had no option but to open fire to stop them.”

The dramatic climax to the horrific attack was filmed by a resident in a tower block over looking the scene in Artillery Road and captures the moment the terrorist charges the officers in a suspected death-by-cop suicide bid.

 The footage reveals how, after beheading the soldier, they hatched a plot to ambush and murder the first police officers to come to his aid.

The soldier killed in an attack in London has been named as Drummer Lee Rigby of the 2nd Battalion the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers.

The murdered soldier has been named as 25-year-old Drummer Lee Rigby

Drummer Rigby, 25, from Manchester, leaves behind a two-year-old son.

For eight minutes in the film before the armed police arrive the suspects can be seen talking to passers-by and three women who are trying to help the victim.

They made no attempt to try and harm them.

But as soon they see the patrol car turn the corner they spring into action in a pre-meditated attack, carefully designed to give the gunman time to target the officers.

The birds-eye 15 minute 50 second long footage, obtained exclusively by the Daily Mirror, was filmed from 100ft up a tower block, which overlooks the scene on Artillery Place at the corner of Rectory Place.

Calls started flooding in to the police at 2.20pm yesterday and Scotland Yard said it was assigned to a armed response unit four minutes later, who arrived on the scene ten minutes after that.

The filming opens shortly after the suspects have picked up the body and dumped it in the road and can then be seen talking to those filming them and the brave women trying to tend to their victims.

A couple of minutes into the footage a lone ambulance drives slowly up the street towards the butchered victim and looks like it is going to stop.

But when they spot the two armed suspects standing nearby they have no option but to swerve round his body and keep going.

Suddenly eight minutes and 21 seconds into the footage the men sprint into action when the police BMW X5 comes round the corner and skids to a halt 25 feet away.

Instantly the knife and cleaver wielding suspect, wearing a charcoal hooded top and black woolly hat, runs head-long towards the driver’s side of the marked silver patrol car.

He can be seen dropping one of his blades and moving the other into his right hand as he rushes wildly at the vehicle.

Just as he is within touching distance of the car two shots ring out and the man is sent sprawling to the ground by the force of the bullets.

The split-second decision to open fire means that the officers had to shoot while they were still sitting in the vehicle, either through open windows or partially opened doors.

Simultaneously the second terrorist, armed with the handgun, takes off, running along the pavement past the three officers as the emerge from the car.

In his light-coloured trench coat he can be seen raising his right arm and pointing the revolver at the officers as they tackle his accomplice.

As he disappears briefly behind a tree four more shots ring out, including one from him according to some witnesses, and he then stumbles and falls near a road sign.

As the cops advance on the blade carrying suspect the female driver of the car can be seen to be carrying a bright yellow Taser.

She is flanked by two male colleagues who ran out from either side of the vehicle, carrying their Heckler and Koch MP5 submachine guns.

One trains his gun on the downed knifeman and the other opens fire on the running gunman who also slumps to the floor as he is hit.

It is likely the marksmen were using newly introduced hollow-point bullets which flatten on impact for more stopping power.

The knifeman cartwheels 6-8ft feet making it appear that the special rounds were used.

The design also means that they are also less likely to pass through the body of the intended target and hit any passerbys.

Despite being hit the gunman then can be seen lying on the ground on his back before appearing to roll on to his left side towards the advancing police.

The final two shots, of the eight fired in the film clip are from by the specialist officers at the gunman as he lies of the floor.

Witnesses say he was still holding the gun despite being shot.

At the same time the female officer can be seen dropping her stun gun and pulling out a handgun from her holster and covering the knifeman as he lays prone on the ground, kicking his legs.

Amazingly as all the shooting is taking a place a woman can be seen just feet away from the suspects talking on her mobile phone.

During the footage before the police arrives scores of people are visible in the background walking along both sides of the street.

They either have their heads down staring straight ahead or nervously looking over at the body and the suspects.

Literary icon, Prof. Chinua Achebe laid to rest in his home town, Idemili

Prof. Chinua Achebe, the late Nigerian literary icon was buried this afternoon at his country home in Ogidi, headquarters of Idemili North local government area of Anambra state in a blaze of glory.

Leading hundreds of dignitaries from all over the world to bid Achebe final goodbye was President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan whose chopper touched down at about 10.50 am.

All governors of the eastern states were at the burial ceremony, with the exception of Sullivan Chime of Enugu state who was represented by his deputy. Delta state governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan was also on hand to say bye for now to Achebe.

Also at the burial service which was held at the St. Phillips Anglican Church, Ogidi were eminent dignitaries from all works of life, including members of the international community of writers.

Chief host at the event, Governor Peter Obi of Anambra state walked beside the ambulance carrying the remains of Achebe from Achebe’s compound to the church premises.

In his homily, the Bishop of the Niger, Rev. Father Owen Nwokolo, urged Nigerian leaders to learn from Achebe who he said devoted his entire life to service to humanity.

Rev. Father Nwokolo called on the members of Achebe’s family to rejoice at the exit of their illustrious son because, in his word, “Chinua Achebe could not have lived a better life.”

Prof. Achebe was later interred at the tomb erected in his compound by priests from across the easter states.

Earlier on Thursday evening, the well-polished mahogany casket bearing the remains of Achebe arrived at the community town hall at about 5 p.m where he laid in state. His body arrived at his country home at exactly 6.30 pm where a service of songs was held in his honour by the Anglican Communium.

Wife of the late writer, Prof. Christie Achebe, took no consolation as she literarily fell on the Mercedes Benz ambulance bearing the casket and wept uncontrollably, just as women of the Achebe family also thronged the compound, wailing and calling out in Igbo language, Ugo na abo (two eagle on a tree), meaning that Achebe, a rare person has gone.

The officiating priest, Reverend Father Osita Amacheze, based his sermon on the subject, A Time for Everything. Reading from the Bible book of Eccliastes chapter 3, he said there was time for affair by man on the surface of the earth, adding that it was the time for Achebe to exit the earth.

He urged the congregation, friends and relatives of the departed not to mourn his exit since he lived a fulfilled life that touched millions of lives.

“We came to make a joyful shouting to the Lord. We are not here to mourn because we are here for a celebration of life, a life that has been so well spent, that has touched so many of us,” Rev. Father Amacheze said.

Performance by various traditional groups spiced up the night.

Dame Ngozi Ezejum, née Achebe, first niece of the Achebe family, described the late writer as a traditional man whom she had fond memories of during his days at the University of Ibadan.

“Prof. Achebe was a humble and a traditional man to the core. He was fond of me, being the first niece of the Achebe family. Whenever he return from Ibadan in those days, he did his own cooking. I ran errands for him in getting condiments for his cooking, and in return, he would entertain me with music from his gramophone,” Dame Ezejum told PM NWES.

In the delegation of international community of writers that accompanied the remains of Prof. Achebe from the US to his country home were scholars from the Department of African Studies of the University of Massachusetts, including Prof. Ekwueme Michael Thelwell, Prof. Bill Lawler and a host of others.

Achebe received Nigeria’s highest national prize for intellectual and academic achievement, that is the Nigeria Order of Merit (NOM). As a literary icon, he was celebrated as Eagle on Iroko on his 60th birthday at University of Nigeria Nsukka before my very eyes.

He received honorary doctorate degree from at least 30 universities worldwide along with numerous other academics.  Not through godfatherism, not through using the national, not through any corrupt practice but by diligently maximizing his God-given talent. He stood out as a perfect gentleman of honour and transparent integrity.

A motor vehicle accident in 1990 confined Achebe to the wheel chair for the rest of his life. Lesser mortals could have thrown in the towel but Chinua held from the wheelchair.

Andres Gardin, Panama legend, peels 500 coconuts in 6 hrs with his teeth(VIDEO)

A man in Panama with indestructible teeth, astonishing jaws of steel and an awesome resemblance to Mr. T is gnawing his way toward a Guinness World Record.

At 64-years-old, Andres Gardin -- who chomps under the moniker "Coconut Peeler" -- is vying for immortality in the Guinness Book of World Records, with his ability to shuck 500 coconuts in six hours. He proved the feat last September, MSN reports.

He's been honing his peeling skills since he was 11 and says he has shredded more than 100,000 coconuts in his lifetime, AFP reports.

The master of the hairy fruit recently proved his skills on a disheveled basketball court in Panama after he peeled off a coconut's hardened skin in an impressive eight seconds (video above).

"Peeling coconuts is not as easy as you all think," Gardin told a group of fans. "To peel coconuts, you've got to have jaw power. You've got to have teeth power," AFP reported.

While Guinness officials have yet to verify Gardin's record, he is determined to get world-reconigition for his feats of strength.

"I want to get in the Guinness Book, because I know that I have what it takes," he said.

His oral skills don't stop there. On May 10, Gardin, who drives a cab as his day-job, demonstrated his impressive dental strength to a crowd of onlookers in Rio Alejandro, about 85 km north of Panama City, when he dragged two cars by his teeth through a crowd of flabbergasted onlookers.

Miami cannibal victim learning to play guitar a year after most of his face was chewed off in horrific attack

WARNING!!! This video contains images and motion pictures that may be distressing to the viewer

A homeless man whose face was mostly chewed off in a horrific attack last year in Miami has learned to play guitar as he continues to receive treatment for his injuries. 

As the first anniversary of the attack nears, Ronald Poppo has spoken publicly for the first time. 

In a video released by hospital staff, Mr Poppo thanked all the people to have supported him through his difficult recovery. 

He said: 'I thank the outpouring of people in the community and I will always be grateful for that.' 

Mr Poppo spent almost a month in hospital after the attack in May last year. 

Mr Poppo is smiling again one year after a 75 per cent of his face was chewed off by Rudy Eugene

He has been left blind but his doctors say he has been working with an occupational therapist to learn how to take care of himself. 

He has been living in a long-term care facility since the gruesome attack. 

Mr Poppo has been learning to play guitar and practices the instrument daily. 

A year after the broad daylight attack, Mr Poppo is smiling again. 

He recently celebrated his 66th birthday with staff at Jackson Memorial Hospital. 

Hospital staff helped Mr Poppo celebrate his 66th birthday and he has put 50lb under their care 

About 75 per cent of Mr Poppo's face was chewed off by Rudy Eugene in the shocking assault. 

Miami police shot and killed Eugene after being called to the scene on the side of a highway. 

Rudy Eugene ate 75% of Mr Popo's face in a frenzied attack on a Miami highway

Surveillance video from a nearby building showed Eugene stripping Poppo and beating him before appearing to hunch over and lie on top of him.

The police officer who shot Eugene to death said he growled at the officer when he told him to stop.

Emergency callers had reported seeing a naked man swinging from a light pole on Miami's MacArthur Causeway a few minutes before the attack.

It was widely speculated that Eugene was on bath salts when he launched the frenzied attack - however toxicology tests found only marijuana in his system.

The case made headlines world wide but Mr Poppo has chosen not to speak publicly until now. 

Hospital staff have revealed Mr Poppo is 'living happily and adjusting to his new life' at the Perdue Medical Center where he has learned to play guitar. 

A graphic picture released at the time showed the extent of Mr Poppo's injuries.

Two-thirds of his face was covered in scabs and his nose was missing. 

His grey beard was trimmed, leaving a moustache over his upper lip.

However, in the latest pictures his wounds have clearly improved. 

The homeless man underwent several surgeries at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Florida before being transferred to a local-term care center.

Mr Poppo, who is originally from New York, had been living on the streets of Florida for the past 30 years, estranged from his family who thought he had committed suicide years before.

Record-breaking 128lb Python that measures 18ft and 8in long is captured and killed in Florida, United States (VIDEO)

The biggest ever Python snake found in Florida, measuring 18 feet and 8 inches long, has been captured and killed.

The 128lb giant female reptile broke the previous record by over a foot.

The Burmese Python, an invasive species to the Florida Everglades, was found and killed by Jason Leon in a rural area southeast of Miami.

He managed to snare the snake after seeing part of its body sticking out the undergrowth.

With the help of a friend he killed the snake with a knife. According to University of Florida scientists, the snake was not carrying eggs.

Florida Wildlife officials later told him it was the biggest ever recorded in the state. The previous longest was 17ft and seven inches.

'We were riding and I saw something poking out on the side of the road. At first I didn't know what it was,' said Veronica Larios, who accompanied Leon to the Everglades.

In a video recorded by another friend Blake Jordan Leon can be seen grabbing the snake by it's neck.

Larios hands Leon a knife and helps him move the snake's body as it tried to coil around her friend.

Leon said: 'For about 10 minutes, he was wrapping around my legs, around my arms. I was switching arms, and finally. We finally pulled him apart, stretched him out, and took a knife and cut his head.'

'I knew that it was a big snake and I've never seen it in the wild. I knew it didn't belong there. I knew they had to be removed so I grabbed it.'

The snake was later given to the University of Florida's Fort Lauderdale Research and Education Center for a necropsy. 

Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Committee, recently sanctioned a hunt to try and rid the Everglades of the pythons.

They are also thought to be breeding an at alarming rate with the first reptiles released into the Everglades thought to have been pets that outgrew their containers.

Former Anglican priest bags 10 yrs in jail for sexual abuse of underaged girls

Canon Gordon Rideout

A retired Church of England priest found guilty of a catalogue of historic sex attacks on young children at a Barnardo's home has been jailed for 10 years.

Canon Gordon Rideout, 74, abused more than a dozen girls and boys at the now closed home at Ifield Hall in Crawley, West Sussex, over a four-year period.

The former Anglican clergyman from Polegate, East Sussex, also indecently assaulted two girls at an army site in Middle Wallop, Hampshire, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said.

At Lewes Crown Court, Rideout was found guilty of 34 counts of indecent assault and two counts of attempted rape on 16 children between January 1962 and January 1973. He was cleared of one count of indecent assault on a boy at a second Barnardo's home in Essex.

As he was sentenced today, the Bishop of Chichester, Dr Martin Warner, said Rideout had caused ‘immeasurable and destructive suffering’ over a long period of time.

Most of the charges he was convicted of related to his time as an assistant curate at St Mary's Church in Crawley when he would visit a Barnardo's children's home in the county.

Prosecutor Philip Bennetts QC told the jury that Rideout would visit the home and ‘it would appear from the evidence that he would wander the house and indeed the grounds unaccompanied, and he would visit children when they were sick and alone in bed’.

One of his victims recalled Rideout visiting the dormitories at night, put his hands under the covers and ‘fondle around’. 

Mr Bennetts said: ‘It was on a regular basis when he came to stay, maybe once, twice, three times a week sometimes.’

Rideout's victims did not complain at the time for fear of not being believed. Jurors heard how Rideout attempted to rape a girl who attended choir practice.

After one occasion in his flat, Rideout walked the girl back to the children's home and told her: ‘This is going to be our secret.’ 

A month after another rape attempt in a wooded area, the girl believed she was pregnant. When she confided the abuse to a friend who went on to tell a manager at the home, the victim was slapped across her face. At the home, Mr Bennetts said there was a ‘brutal regime where children were taught how to behave by beatings’.

One girl, who was aged around 14 or 15 at the time she was abused, was asked why she had not reported it to the authorities sooner. She told police in interview: ‘I was too scared, too scared.I didn't want to be beaten again, too scared. The beatings were so much worse than what that man was doing. The beatings were terrible, absolutely terrible.’

One boy asked Rideout why he was molesting him. Rideout replied: ‘I've got to do it.’ 

When the boy went on to question him why, Rideout said: ‘I like little boys.’

Another complainant said she told the married couple who ran the home that the priest was abusing them, but they responded by throwing her against a wall, breaking one of her ribs.

Rideout was arrested in March last year and charged five months later following a nine-month inquiry by Sussex Police. He denied all the charges.

Barnardo's director of children's services Sam Monaghan said after the case: ‘We are extremely saddened by this case and our deepest sympathies go out to those who have suffered. It has taken great courage for them to step forward and relive their experiences.

‘We are glad that justice has been served and believe it is critical that abusers are held to account for their crimes, regardless of when they took place. We take all allegations of historical abuse extremely seriously and we will always co-operate fully with the justice system on such matters.’

Rideout is the latest figure from the scandal-hit diocese of Chichester to be convicted of historic sex crimes against children.

Earlier this month a report was published into the operation of child protection policies in the diocese two years after the former archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams ordered a visitation.

 former archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams

 It followed a series of scandals involving clergymen within the diocese which has led to several being arrested, charged and convicted for historical sex crimes against children.

The report's publication prompted a renewed apology from the current Archbishop, Dr Justin Welby, who said the Anglican church can never ignore the ‘hurt and damage’ of victims who should ‘never have been let down’ by people who should have been trusted.

Archbishop, Dr Justin Welby

Investigations into Rideout began after police were handed a confidential report by Dame Elizabeth Butler-Sloss in May 2011 raising concerns about his conduct in the 1960s and early 1970s.

Another priest referred to in the report, Robert Coles, 71, of Eastbourne, was jailed for eight years in February for sex offences against young boys. His offending was not linked to Rideout.

Following the case, the Bishop of Chichester, Dr Martin Warner, said: ‘Gordon Rideout has been the cause of immeasurable and destructive suffering over a long period of time. He has also betrayed the trust and respect of many who have valued his ministry. Today's verdict will have repercussions in many different ways across Sussex and beyond.

‘We are left with the question of why it has taken so long for these grave accusations to be taken seriously and brought to trial. What lessons do we all have to learn from this terrible catalogue of abuse about the strength and effectiveness of our communication within and between agencies that have responsibility for the safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults?

‘In the diocese of Chichester we shall continue to interrogate those procedures and to do our very best to ensure that we deliver the quality and standard that others expect of us.’

Nigel Pilkington, head of the CPS South East Complex Casework Unit, said: ‘As an assistant curate and then chaplain, Gordon Rideout was in a position of trust, which he systemically abused, indecently assaulting the vulnerable youngsters that he met over a number of years.

‘A number of his victims attempted to speak out about what Rideout was doing, but tragically at the time of the offences, a child's word was not believed.

‘Those who were brave enough to say anything were subjected to brutal beatings. Some of his victims told police in interviews that it simply “wasn't worth complaining” because of the punishment they would receive in return.

'They may not have been believed as children, but today they finally have been. I hope that helps to give them closure.

Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS South East, Roger Coe-Salazar, said: ‘This case is an example of how the CPS successfully prosecutes cases of child sexual abuse and should serve as a warning to those who think they can abuse children with impunity.

‘We are exceptionally mindful of how difficult it can be for victims to step forward and place their trust in the authorities many years later, but I hope this case illustrates the support and understanding they will receive from the prosecutors and the police when they do.’

Police said none of the charges Rideout faced related to claims of recent or current offending and there is no suggestion that any children are currently at risk.

Detective Chief Inspector Jon Gross, of Sussex Police, said: ‘It is difficult to overestimate the significance of this verdict for those who have finally seen justice, many decades after being prey to the sexual abuse perpetrated by Gordon Rideout.

‘His offending over that period has been hugely impactive upon the lives of his victims, from childhood to the present day.

‘It is hoped this case will bring a sense of closure to all of those who provided evidence to the investigation while underlining to the wider community that it is never too late to report serious crimes, however long ago the alleged offending took place.

‘In carrying out this investigation we also received full co-operation from the Diocese of Chichester and Barnardo's Homes.’

Woman sexually assaulted policeman while offering him and a colleague a 'threesome'

Celina Hodge

A suspected drink driver groped a policeman while offering him and a colleague a threesome as they tried to give her a breath test.

Celina Hodge, 41, groped the officer’s genitals and buttocks after she was allegedly seen drinking vodka behind the wheel of her car.

The two policemen were attempting to give her a breath test when she touched the officer and made a series of suggestive comments, Bristol Magistrates' Court heard.

Hodge, of Hambrook, Bristol entered a guilty plea to one count of sexual assault but denied failing to provide a sample breath test.

May Li, prosecuting, told the court that Hodge was ‘clearly drunk’ so police officers got her out of the car to perform the breath test.

She said: ‘The officers received reports of a female drinking from a bottle of vodka at the wheel.

‘They located the vehicle where Mrs Hodge was sat in the driver's seat, with the engine off but the keys in the ignition, with a male passenger in the back seat.

‘Mrs Hodge told one officer: “You've got a good ass”. She rubbed her hands over the officer's buttocks and she told him she liked him.’

As she was being arrested, Hodge made sexually suggestive comments to the officers, including offers of sex, the court heard.

Ms Li added: ‘She asked the officers: “Can't we go somewhere just the three of us?” 

'She told the Pc he would be a good f*** and repeatedly attempted to rub his groin.’

Later, when officers attempted to get Hodge to give a breath sample at a police station, she began pleasuring herself during the incident on April 25.

Ms Li said: ‘She took hold of the mouthpieces, looked at the CCTV camera, put her leg up on the counter.'

The driver then started to touch herself while blowing into the alcohol tester, she added.

Hodge spoke only to confirm her name and pleas during the ten minute hearing.

She was granted unconditional bail to appear before the same court for the breath test trial on July 11. 

She will be sentenced for the sexual assault at a later date.

Woman stabs boyfriend with 8-inch knife for farting in his face

Deborah Ann Burns

A Florida woman explained to cops that she stabbed her boyfriend after he purposefully passed gas in her general direction.
Deborah Ann Burns, 37, told police that she was watching TV Tuesday night in the Immokalee home she shares with Willie Butler, her boyfriend of six years. Burns advised that, at one point, “Willie walked by her and farted in her face.”
Burns then “confronted him about the fart and Willie became agitated, telling her to shut up” according to a Collier County Sheriff’s Office report.
During the ensuing confrontation, Burns allegedly grabbed an eight-inch kitchen knife and threw it at the 53-year-old Butler, striking him in the stomach. Butler, who suffered a minor laceration, was treated at the scene by EMS personnel.
Pictured in the above mug shot, Burns was arrested for aggravated battery with a deadly weapon. She was booked into the county jail, where she is being held in lieu of $50,000 bond on the felony count. Burns, a convicted felon, previously spent 21 months in state prison for aggravated assault with a weapon and battery on a law enforcement officer.

California Doctor reprimanded for advising patient to have oral sex with husband to treat gag reflex

J. Peter Zegarra, a California doctor, has been publicly reprimanded by the state's medical board after he told a patient to practice oral sex on her husband. The patient had expressed concerns her gag reflex would interfere with an upper-gastrointestinal endoscopy, according to CBS affiliate KOVR.

The patient, an unidentified woman, complained that the Sacramento-based colo-rectal surgeon told her to practice oral sex on her husband "twice a week" prior to the procedure as a way of allaying the reflex.

According to CBS Sacramento, Zegarra made the suggestion in front of the woman and her husband "several years ago." The station also noted Zegarra had tried twice to expunge the complaint from the public record. Zegarra's name appears on a summary of administrative actions taken by the California board of medicine in 2007.

CBS Sacramento reports that a spokesperson for the state board of medicine called the doctor's suggestion inappropriate, even if it was meant as a joke.

As a matter of perspective, doctors have been caught doing much worse than dispensing questionable advice.

In September 2012, an Illinois doctor faced federal charges after he allegedly traded prescription drugs for sexual favors from 30 different patients. According to ABC affiliate KCRG, Dr. David Gierlus' sexual encounters with patients ranged from "oral sex, both during medical appointments and outside the office in [his] vehicle, to intercourse in the examination room during medical appointments.”

In April 2012, a British general practitioner went before a medical counsel to face allegations from three female patients, who made separate complaints about his conduct between 2003 and 2005. One patient complained that the family doctor had molested her and had sex with her several times on his surgery table during appointments, claiming that it would "help save her marriage."

Although suspensions are common in cases like these, they aren't always permanent. In August 2012, a Lodi, Calif., doctor had his license reinstated by a judge, despite the doctor's admitting to taking mood-altering inhalants and masturbating in his office. Opponents of the decision called it an example of the California medical board's "lax approach to getting rid of doctors who pose a harm to patients."

When her amorous advances were repeatedly rejected by her live-in boyfriend, Krystle Harrison allegedly “bit his penis” in retaliation, police allege.

Harrison, 19, and Jeffrey Wilkinson, 24, were in bed late last night in their Bradenton, Florida home when Harrison “wanted to have sex,” according to a Manatee County Sheriff’s 

Office report.

In a bid to entice Wilkinson, Harrison “began to touch him.” But Wilkinson told her “several times that he did not want to partake,” a deputy noted.

Wilkinson told an investigator that after turning away Harrison, she grabbed him and “bit his penis.” He then pushed her away and left the home, which the couple shares with their infant son.

The dispute continued outside the residence, where Harrison allegedly slapped her beau in the face and “then spit in his facial area.” Wilkinson also “received minor scratches to his upper chest” during the tangle with Harrison, whom he has dated for three years.

Harrison, seen above, was arrested for misdemeanor domestic battery and booked early today into the county jail, where bond has not been set.

Wilkinson told a deputy that he did not want to press charges and refused to complete a sworn affidavit about the confrontation. He also declined medical treatment for his bitten penis. (2 pages)

How retired school principal embalmed 78yr-old mother's dead body and hid it in closet for 10yrs

The village of Ezuru Umuagwu in Ejemekwuru community in Oguta Local Government Area of Imo State, Nigeria was yesterday thrown into uproar and disbelief when the police brought out the embalmed body of 78-year-old Mrs. Lucy Osigwe, assumed to have been missing for the past 10 years from the wardrobe of his son, Dr. Chimezie Osigwe, a retired school principal. Dr. Chimezie, 64, who claimed to be a member of Sat Guru Maharaji religious sect, had hidden the body in a wardrobe in a room used as his shrine, told newsmen after his arrest by the police that the body was the embalmed staff of the General Hospitals in the state, who he also claimed, died afterwards.
Narrating how his mother died, the frail-looking Osigwe said, “that evening, sometime in 2003, I was meditating in my ‘Temple’ when my mother came in to ease herself. Suddenly I heard a big noise.
I went in and found her groaning, I took her to her room and laid her on the bed before she passed on. “But you see she is still here but I can’t tell you why she is here 10 years after because the enemies of Guru Maharaji are all over here I will talk to you people in camera, I have been a devotee of the Maharaji sect in the last 24 years and have also attained high spiritual level. So, I won’t like to speak in the public as doing so will send an erroneous impression of the sect”.
Briefing newsmen at the scene of the crime which was earlier cordoned off by stern-looking policemen, the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Muhammad Musa Katsina, said that the bizarre scene was uncovered by the Ambush Squad attached to the command after a tip-off.
He said that the house serves as a meeting point for ritualists who converge there to perpetrate atrocities. “We have information about the large number of devotees that patronize the shrine, which will help us identify those behind the heinous act”, he noted.
Meanwhile, a reliable police source who doesn’t want to be named, narrated how the son of the suspect whose identity is withheld for security reasons, made the startling revelation. According to him, the 22-year old boy who ventured into his father’s secret room in search of his credentials, opened a large wardrobe, which was securely locked and got the shock of his life when he found the mummified body of his grandmother, who they thought had been missing.
But for the heavy presence of the armed policemen, youths of the community would have lynched the suspect over what they described as the heinous crime. Celestine Agwu, a member of the community, told Daily Sun that the people were shocked to their marrow when the policemen brought the body of mother of Osigwe, who had told his kinsmen that the mother had travelled overseas to be with his other children.
He said, if it was not for the presence of the police, youths of the community would have lynched him.

Couple who had sex while inside Dubai taxi jailed for 2 months

A British businesswoman and an Irish welder convicted of having drunken sex in the back of a taxi in Dubai have been sentenced to two months in jail after losing an appeal.
Rebecca Blake, 30, from Dorking, Surrey (inset), and Conor McRedmond, 28, from Tullamore, Co. Offaly,pictured above, had spent a year fighting the allegations.
Blake and McRedmond were arrested on May 4 last year after going on a ten-hour drinking binge.
The pair met hours earlier at a brunch, where they admitted getting drunk on free-flowing wine and vodka in an all-inclusive €45-a-head deal.
They carried on drinking at a hotel and got into a taxi together at about 10pm.
Taxi driver Qaiser Khan, 30, claimed within minutes of getting in, Blake had taken her top off and was writhing on top of McRedmond while ‘making the sounds of a woman having sex’.
He pulled over on Sheikh Zayed road and summoned policeman Abdullah Obaid Khamis, who told the court that he found the pair having sex and interrupted them by tapping on the window.
He told prosecutors: ‘They kept having sex for four minutes. The man’s shirt was open, his trousers were down to his knees and the woman was not wearing any underwear.’
The taxi driver alleged Blake offered him ‘a lot of money’ to tell prosecutors they had been kissing rather than having sex, but he refused.
Witnesses said recruitment executive Blake stripped off before straddling McRedmond, who had his jeans pulled down.
The pair denied the accusations and yesterday said they were ‘disappointed’ by the outcome, which will see both deported after serving their sentences.
Blake, who was sacked from her £120,000-a-year post, said: ‘I am devastated by this result and gutted this has been dragging on for a year. I cannot wait to get home and start my life now but I am very scared about going to prison.’
McRedmond has been living in Dubai for four years, said: ‘I am disappointed after coming this far and fighting these allegations for so long. I feel they are making an example of us.’
Blake and McRedmond do not have to go to jail immediately and can decide when to hand themselves in – but if they are arrested in the meantime or get into trouble with the law, they will be taken straight to prison.
They cannot leave the country until they have served their sentence.
The pair said they had been financially crippled by the case after spending more than €50,000 fighting to clear their names.
Blake, who moved to Dubai in September 2011, has not been able to find work since she was sacked and neither of them can leave the country after having their passports confiscated.

Blake and McRedmond, who works as a manager at Kelly Steel engineering firm, said the allegations had been trumped up after they rowed with the taxi driver about taking a longer route home.
The pair were originally convicted in November in the criminal court, where they were both sentenced to three months in jail and given a €630 fine for drinking alcohol – a crime in the Islamic country.
The sentence was challenged in the Court of Appeal in February, which cut the sentence by a month and reduced the fine.
But the Supreme Court – the highest court in the United Arab Emirates – refused to drop the charges altogether, despite medical reports proving the couple did not have sex.
Their lawyer Shaker al Shammary yesterday said the statements of the two witnesses were inconsistent, adding: ‘They threatened to complain about the taxi driver and he beat them to it – yet there is no mention of their dispute in the Supreme Court judgment.
‘The medical records show what the witnesses said was not true but this was not taken into account in the ruling.’
The duo’s only options now are to beg for a royal pardon from Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai, or they can serve their time and challenge the deportation order in the courts.
McRedmond said: ‘We find ourselves in exactly the same position we were in after the original verdict but thousands of pounds poorer.
‘Any court in the world would accept the medical evidence above all else. I love Dubai and wanted to carry on living here but I am left without a choice.’
There were fears their failure to clear their names is part of a crackdown from Dubai authorities on expats flouting their strict rules.
Vince Acors and Michelle Palmer, a British couple caught having sex on a beach, were treated more leniently in 2008 when they were convicted on the same charge of indecency and ordered to serve three months in prison, but received a suspended sentence on appeal.

Busted: High school science teacher, Jennifer Vigil, 31, was charged with allegedly raping one of her male students

Jennifer Vigil is alleged to have locked the doors and told the teen: 'You're not leaving until I get something from you.'

The student claimed he refused the 31-year-old's sexual advances, but later agreed to let her perform oral sex so he could leave.

The teen said he later had sex with Vigil in the classroom shortly after she had dismissed a class.

Vigil allegedly told police the sex was consensual, but the student is alleged to have said he found the idea of sex with her as 'disgusting.'

The student allegedly took a picture with his cellphone during the oral sex, which took place behind the locked classroom door.

Police in Santa Fe, New Mexico, said even if the sex was consensual it was still illegal as Vigil was in a position of authority.

'In her position of authority it’s prohibited to engage in any type of sex activity with a student regardless of whether it’s consensual or not,' said Sheriff's Major Ken Johnson.

Vigil, whose Facebook page says she was married in July 2009, has taught science at Pojoaque Valley High School in Santa Fe for the last eight years.

According to the criminal complaint, the student who was in her horticulture class said that on March 22 he met with Vigil after school to turn in an assignment.

He said when he entered the classroom, Vigil locked the doors and said, 'You’re not leaving until I get something from you.'

The student said he asked Vigil what she wanted, and said Vigil said she would help him out if he helped her out adding 'So why don’t you just give (it) to me and I’ll leave.'"

The student said he told Vigil, 'No, that’s disgusting. You’re a teacher.'
He told investigators they argued for several minutes until Vigil agreed to let the student leave in exchange for letting her perform a sex act on him.

The student said he thought was the only way to get out of the situation.

The student took a photograph of the sexual encounter on his cellphone, which was identified by the detective as being a picture of Vigil.

During her interview with police, Vigil made it clear the teen had initiated the sex.

She gave different dates for the incident to the teen.

Vigil said on April 2 during a lunch break the student dropped off an assignment.

Vigil claimed the student requested she perform oral sex which led to sexual intercourse.

She said that on April 12, the student again requested to have sex with her and she agreed.

Vigil was charged under a section of state law that makes it illegal for school employees to have sex with students.

Vigil, left, allegedly told police the teen initiated the sexual encounters between the two of them but he told police he thought having sex with his teacher was 'disgusting'

According to the complaint, Vigil said she was aware that she had authority over the student because she was his teacher.

Pojoaque Valley schools human resources director Angela Lobato said Vigil would be on administrative leave pending the outcome of the sheriff’s investigation.

'We do take these allegations seriously and we follow protocols when dealing with these issues,' Lobato said.

'We are getting back into the business of educating our students and providing high-quality education.'

Vigil faces two counts of criminal sexual penetration of the teen. She is being held on $25,000 bond.

Female TV reporter sacked for saying ‘sex’ instead of ‘success’ during a presentation

A female Television sports presenter with CSN Chicago was sacked from her job for a minor mistake on air. She had excitedly shouted ‘sex,’ while she meant to say ‘success.’ This was after the Chicago Blackhawks won a thrilling play-off game against Minnesota Wild in the NHL. The victory elicited wild jubilation among fans.

The presenter, Susannah Collins in the heat of the excitement, slipped up over her words, reporting on the “tremendous amount of success” the Blackhawks has enjoyed.

Instead, she said the players had enjoyed a "tremendous amount of sex", but stopped to correct herself immediately.

But the story took a sour turn when Collins was sacked by the network within days of the gaffe. Phil Bedella, vice president of CSN Chicago, said: "Due to circumstances unrelated to her on-air remarks Tuesday night, Susannah Collins and Comcast SportsNet Chicago have parted ways."

The "circumstances unrelated to her on-air remarks" were allegedly a series of videos Collins made called 'Sports Nutz', which you know were extreme because the name ended with a ‘Z’. The videos featured lowbrow comedy and explicit jokes, ranging from "graphic sexual exploits of pro athletes to the dearth of Jewish baseball players," according to the Chicago Tribune.

However, the clips existed before she joined the network in September, and another theory that has emerged is that the owner of the Blackhawks owner Rocky Wirtz

"'In my opinion and those of others, (the videos) are incredibly offensive to a number of audiences, going well beyond professional athletes," Wirtz said. "Had we known of this earlier, we would have raised the issue immediately."

The letter went on to ask CSN to "remove her from our broadcast immediately.'" Most members of the public were not convinced that she was not sacked for the sex slip.
