vatican dismisses priest accused of abuse

mexican priest marcial marciel degollado has been asked by the vatican to retire, after allegations of sexual abuse.

pope benedict xvi told the priest to lay down his priesthood and retire to a life of prayer and penance.

marcial marciel degollado, 86, founder of the legion of christ order, was accused of sexual abuse by at least nine men, who said they were abused when they were young seminarians, between the ages of 10 and 16.

although the vatican did not address the accusations, it is the first time a priest accused of sexual abuse has been asked to step down by the roman catholic church.

many have applauded the new course the vatican has taken with regards to sexual abuse by their priests. pope john paul ii never asked any priest to step down after allegations of misconduct, many remain in active ministry even after allegations have been proven to be true.

father marciel has maintained his innocence, but has chosen not to defend himself, “following the teachings of christ”.

the priest will not be subject to an inquiry, according to the vatican, due to his old age and frail health.

accused nude burglar asks for shorts

a man accused of trying to burglarize a home while naked tuesday stopped in mid-escape to ask the victim for a pair of shorts, a sheriff's spokeswoman said.

the victim threw the shorts to the accused burglar, who then fled, said susan quayle, a spokeswoman for the yavapai county sheriff's department. nickos george kopsaftis was later arrested next door, apparently while trying to steal a car, quayle said. "he was wearing the shorts that were donated to him," she said.

quayle said a man house-sitting for his father found kopsaftis standing naked in an upstairs room holding two rifles belonging to the homeowner. the victim told sheriff's deputies that he got the rifles away from the man, who ran away, but not before stopping outside to ask for clothes, quayle said.

when deputies arrived, they found a pair of wet socks and a pair of wet pants with kopsaftis' wallet and id inside, quayle said. a banging sound from next door led deputies to a car which kopsaftis appeared to be trying to hot-wire, she said.

kopsaftis was booked into the county jail on two counts of burglary and two counts of attempted theft. she said shed didn't know how kopsaftis' pants got wet.

this is either one funny dude, or the biggest weirdo in the world.

man accused of stealing porn site arrested

san diego - a man accused of stealing a pornographic web site and making millions of dollars from it was arrested by mexican authorities.

stephen michael cohen, 57, was taken into custody thursday as he applied for a work permit and was turned over to u.s. authorities, said tania tyler, a spokeswoman for the u.s. marshals service, which tracks down fugitives.

at a hearing friday in san diego federal court, magistrate judge leo papas ordered cohen transferred to northern california, where a warrant was issued for his arrest.

"it's good that justice is served," said gary kremen, 41, who fought cohen for years over the sex.com web site. "it actually says something about border cooperation."

the lucrative web site primarily hosts ads for other sex-related sites. kremen said he spent $4.5 million in legal fees trying to regain control of it.

a federal judge in 2000 found that cohen had hijacked the domain name by forging a letter from kremen's company. the judge ordered cohen to return the site and pay kremen $65 million.

cohen failed to appear in court after the judgment was entered and the judge in 2001 issued an arrest warrant charging him with contempt of court. since then, he had been living in tijuana, according to court records.

the warrant orders cohen to remain imprisoned until he returns $25 million that the judge said was illegally transferred out of the country.

accused ebay bully allegedly terrorizes online users

san diego -- some consumers are discovering that when they bid on ebay, they're opening a portal to problems.

tina schimke and her husband, dwayne, began having trouble with ebay when they placed a bid on a bike from what looked to be a legitimate seller, san diego television station kgtv reported.

"he had quite an ad on the site -- it had lots of bikes. i admit, i didn't completely read the ad," tina schimke said.

when the schimkes e-mailed back with a question about the shipping cost, the seller allegedly blasted them with a nasty e-mail.

"as soon as he got my e-mail, he was pounding the keyboard and venting," tina schimke said.

the anger didn't stop there, she said.

the seller allegedly left her a message that said, "hey there, schmuck boy -- not answering the phone now?"

the alleged ebay bully was on a roll.

"i know exactly where you f---ing live. e-mail me again and see what happens to your little b---- a--," the accused bully said in the message.

"i was afraid this person was a maniac and was going to show up on our front door," tina schimke told the station.

the schimkes aren't alone. this ebay bully had struck before, the station said.

he allegedly called the burleson household 37 times.

mpaa accuses torrentspy of concealing evidence

the movie studios may have discovered a new and powerful weapon in their war on copyright infringement.

the courts have for the first time found that the electronic trail briefly left in a computer server's ram, or random access memory, by each visitor to a site is "stored information" and must be turned over as evidence during litigation, according to cnet news.

jacqueline chooljian, a federal judge in the central district of california in los angeles, issued the decision while presiding over a court fight between the studios and torrentspy, the bittorrent search engine accused of copyright infringement in a lawsuit filed last year by the film industry. on may 29, chooljian ordered torrentspy to begin logging user activity, including ip addresses, and turn the data over to the motion picture association of america (mpaa).

the judge stayed the order on friday to allow torrentspy time to prepare an appeal, which must be filed by tuesday. she also allowed torrentspy to mask the internet protocol addresses of the site's users "at least at this juncture."

this may be the first time that anyone has argued that information within ram is electronically stored information and therefore subject to the rules of evidence, chooljian said according to court records. up to now, many web sites that promised users anonymity, such as torrentspy, believed they need only to switch off their servers' logging function to avoid storing user data.the judge stayed the order on friday to allow torrentspy time to prepare an appeal, which must be filed by tuesday. she also allowed torrentspy to mask the internet protocol addresses of the site's users "at least at this juncture."

this may be the first time that anyone has argued that information within ram is electronically stored information and therefore subject to the rules of evidence, chooljian said according to court records. up to now, many web sites that promised users anonymity, such as torrentspy, believed they need only to switch off their servers' logging function to avoid storing user data.

should chooljian's order stand, the decision could force web sites to rethink privacy precautions.

the electronic frontier foundation called the judge's decision "troubling" and said it could mean that any web site operator could be compelled to log user activity anytime they faced a lawsuit. in its privacy policy, torrentspy pledges not to collect any personal information about users except when they "specifically and knowingly provide such information."

but user data was stored at torrentspy, according to chooljian. the judge said in court documents that this information survived on torrentspy's server ram for about six hours. ram is defined by chooljian as "a chip where volatile internal memory is stored."

the judge agreed with the mpaa that the existence of user data in ram enabled torrentspy to retrieve user information. she also wrote that the data was crucial for getting at the truth in the case, according to records.

"there can be no serious dispute that the server log data in issue is extremely relevant," the judge said in her finding.

concealed evidence?
in one of the most hotly contested disputes so far in the case, the records show that the mpaa accused torrentspy of trying to conceal evidence when the search engine began directing visitors to the servers of an outside vendor.

the mpaa claimed that torrentspy did this to avoid being in possession of user information as the search engine anticipated receiving a court order, according to records. torrentspy denied the accusations and said that the outside vendor was chosen for "significantly faster processing and delivery."

among the arguments torrentspy made against turning over logs was that the law only required the company to produce documents already in possession. it did not ask for the creation of new records.

but that's exactly what the judge was asking the company to do, torrentspy's attorneys asserted in court records. chooljian disagreed.

"since the information is already in the ram, then defendants aren't really being asked to create new information," chooljian wrote.

she also noted that it was not her goal to set a far-reaching precedent with her decision.

"the court emphasizes that its ruling," chooljian said in the documents, "should not be read to require litigants in all cases to preserve and produce electronically stored information that is temporarily stored only in ram."

torrentspy's other arguments against tracking users were that the costs were too high and that the action would violate user's privacy and hinder free speech. all were rejected.

in response to torrentspy's free-speech argument, the judge cited other cases that had established illegal file sharing "qualifies for minimal first amendment protection."

should torrentspy lose in appeal, it would likely have seven days to produce data logs, according to the court records. the company's attorney, ira rothken, said friday that it is unlikely torrentspy would continue operations in the united states if forced to turn over user data.

man accused of biting girlfriend's snake

a northern ireland man bit his girlfriend's pet snake in half during a fight and remarked that it "tasted lovely," lawyers testified friday.

shane cooke, a 33-year-old bricklayer, was arraigned in belfast high court on charges of assaulting his girlfriend, coleen mcgleenon, and fatally torturing her royal python aug. 4.

mcgleenon's lawyers said he headbutted her twice and picked up her pet, put it in his mouth, and threw its severed head at her. "your snake tasted lovely," he was quoted as saying.

cooke's lawyer, adrian higgins, said his client admitted both offenses and had attacked the snake because he knew his girlfriend loved it. he said cooke, from the border village of keady, had been consuming alcoholic drinks for several hours before the attack.

woman accused of setting fire over keys

a woman was arrested and charged with arson and burglary after police say she set fire to the home of a neighbor she thought had stolen her keys. sgt. clint riley of the lane county sheriff's office said the 23-year-old woman later found her keys hanging from her pants pocket.

the woman was being held in the lane county jail in lieu of $350,000 bail. according to a police report, the woman told a deputy that after discovering her keys missing, she broke into her neighbors' trailer, and began trashing the place.

after going home to fetch lighter fluid and cooking oil, she returned to the neighbors' place and tried to start a fire by spraying lighter fluid on a hot stove burner, according to the report. when that didn't work, she allegedly placed the oil and a stuffed animal on the stove, according to the report.

she called 9-1-1 and hid in a bush across the street while deputies and firefighters responded, riley said. the woman's boyfriend said a friend called him at work and he rushed home to find her hiding in the bushes, barefoot and incoherent, according to the report.

the woman told her boyfriend her keys were missing, at which time he pointed to a set of keys hanging from her pants pocket and "she began to cry," riley said. a damage estimate was not immediately available.

guard accused of urinating on computer

a state prison guard who was arrested after a drunken brawl at a nightclub may also be charged with urinating on a municipal jail computer, police said.

willie m. shannon, 26, of lacey, employed at washington corrections center in shelton, was transferred to the thurston county jail, where he was booked for investigation of first-degree malicious mischief and then was released after posting bail, according to police reports monday.

his employment status was unclear. a state corrections spokesman said the personnel office at the prison had closed by the time he was asked about the case monday by the olympian newspaper.

shannon, sean w. dack, 25, of mccleary, who works with shannon at the prison, and randy m. hinchcliffe, 38, of olympia, who has previous felony convictions and knew shannon from the prison, were arrested after fighting early sunday morning at the vault, police st. james costa said.

describing all three as apparently intoxicated, investigators found shannon and hinchcliffe had been thrown out of the club after punching and shoving each other, and dack joined the fray after initially seeming to be trying to break it up, costa said.

dack and hinchcliffe were cited at the municipal jail for disorderly conduct and released, but shannon, while confined in a holding cell, relieved himself through a protective screen onto a nearby computer workstation, according to police reports.

damage to the computer, monitor, fax machine and other hardware was estimated at $1,500, and other equipment was rendered unusable because of the contamination, costa said.

woman accused of attacking breeder with dead dog

a woman angry that her new puppy had died pushed her way into a dog breeder's home and repeatedly hit her on the head with the dead chihuahua, authorities said.

man accused of changing traffic lights

a man who said he bought a device that let him change traffic lights from red to green has received a $50 ticket on suspicion of interfering with a traffic signal.

jason niccum of longmont told the daily times-call that the device, which he bought on ebay for $100, helped him cut his time driving to work.

"i guess in the two years i had it, that thing paid for itself," he told the newspaper wednesday.

niccum was cited march 29 after police said they found him using a strobe-like device to change traffic signals.

"i'm always running late," police quoted niccum as saying in an incident report.

the device, called an opticon, is similar to what firefighters use to change lights when they respond to emergencies. it emits an infrared pulse that receivers on the traffic lights pick up.

niccum was cited after city traffic engineers who noticed repeated traffic-light disruptions on certain intersections spotted a white ford pickup passing by whenever the light patterns were disrupted.

city traffic engineer joe olson said traffic engineers plan to update the city's opticon system this year to block unauthorized light-changing signals.

firefighter accused of taking victim's foot

fort pierce — a st. lucie county firefighter who allegedly took a melbourne man’s severed foot from the scene of a traffic accident last week is under investigation, fire chief ron parrish announced thursday.

parrish said the incident calls into question “the public’s trust in our responsibility and commitment to provide emergency care to our citizens. it’s an extremely serious matter, and one i find personally disturbing. this is a very serious allegation, and we have an obligation to the public and those involved to investigate it thoroughly.”

parrish would not answer further questions, he said, until the investigation is complete.

the victim, karl lambert, 46, has retained the west palm beach law office of raymond christian. reached by phone thursday at his hospital room at st. mary’s medical center in west palm beach, lambert declined to comment and referred questions to his attorney.

“i am in excruciating pain right now,” he said. “i have a long road to recovery.”

a paralegal who answered the phone at christian’s office thursday said the attorney would not be available for comment until friday.

fire district spokeswoman catherine chaney said when dealing with severed body parts at an accident scene, it is the fire district’s policy to take the part with the patient to the hospital if there is any chance of reattachment, or the body part goes to the medical examiner’s office.

depending on the situation, severed body parts are either handled by law enforcement on scene or by fire department officials, chaney said.

“it’s not normal for remains or pieces or parts to be removed from an accident scene other than by the appropriate authority,” said fire district deputy chief buddy emerson.

fire district officials would not release the name of the firefighter who also is a trained paramedic. however, chaney said the firefighter, a woman, trains cadaver dogs. cadaver dogs are used to locate and follow the scent of decomposing human flesh. asked whether the firefighter used the foot to train cadaver dogs, chaney said, “what she was going to use this specific foot for, i can’t confirm.”

chaney said lambert's foot was severed during the accident and was not amputated. she said she did not know how long the investigation would take.

meanwhile, florida highway patrol spokesman lt. tim frith said thursday the agency is investigating the incident. fire district officials notified fhp about the incident wednesday, frith said. a trooper has been assigned to take statements and collect information on what happened to the body part, he said.

“we’re in the preliminary stages right now,” frith said. “it may reach the magnitude of a criminal matter. in 27 years, this is the first time i have ever heard of these accusations. it’s highly unusual.”

frith said he did not know how long fhp’s investigation would take to determine whether the incident is criminal.

meanwhile, fire district officials said the firefighter is still on duty pending the completion of the investigation.

the crash involving lambert happened friday on southbound interstate 95 near the tradition exit. according to an fhp report, lambert’s chevrolet truck, traveling southbound in the inside lane, veered to the left of the roadway onto the emergency lane. lambert overcorrected to get back on the road and struck the left side of a toyota pickup truck driven by cocoa resident barbara price. lambert’s vehicle then crossed onto a grassy median on the left side of the road and struck a tree.

father accused of eating child's eye

bakersfield, calif. -- "it was pretty bizarre," said neighbor ramon rodriguez.

rodriguez was one of the first to discover 34-year-old angelo mendoza on april 28 after police said mendoza bit an eyeball out of his 4-year-old son's face and ate it.

"the guy was crazy. real bug-eyed; he had to be on drugs," said rodriguez.

court documents said neighbors checked on mendoza's son, angelo jr., after they noticed the father acting nervously and fleeing from his east bakersfield apartment in his wheelchair. inside, they found little angelo naked and bleeding. police said the boy had numerous bites to his hands and his eyes were swollen shut. doctors said the boy's left eye and muscle were completely missing. his other eye was mutilated beyond repair. the boy told them, "my daddy ate my eyes out." rodriguez said meanwhile mendoza approached him at a neighbor's vacant house down the street.

rodriguez said the boy's father wheeled himself into the front yard and asked rodriguez to play with him and a pet dog. he was wearing boxers and a sweater. when rodriguez refused, mendoza got off his wheelchair and dragged himself into a back yard, where he found an ax.

by then mendoza had stripped naked. he chained himself to a tree in the back yard and began hacking at his leg with a pickax while yelling incoherently.

"he told me to look into the sun and pray with him. i was kinda scared for a minute," said rodriguez.

then rodriguez jumped on mendoza and wrestled the ax away.

"as soon as i grabbed the ax he tried to bite me, and i had to hold him down with my knee. there was dry blood around his mouth. i don't know if it was his own, but i'm pretty sure it was his son's now that i hear the story," said rodriguez.

the police report said mendoza appeared to be under the influence of pcp. rodriguez said had he known about little angelo, the outcome would have been different.

"i would've just let him cut his leg off. what happened to his son is not right. i would've left him alone," said rodriguez.

mendoza was arrested on charges of torture, aggravated mayhem, and cruelty to a child. the toddler is now in the custody of child protective services. mendoza is due in court may 20. his bail is set at $1 million.

judge accused of sex with inmates

the trial of a former us judge accused of having sex with male inmates in exchange for leniency is set to start in mobile, alabama.

herman thomas, 48, denies the charges, which include sodomy, kidnapping, extortion, sex abuse and assault.

up to 15 current and former prisoners are set to testify against him at the jury trial.

he was once the democratic party's choice to be the first black federal judge in south alabama.

mr thomas resigned as a judge in 2007 following allegations that he spanked inmates in his private office at the county courthouse with a paddle.

in april this year, he was indicted on more serious charges.

if he is convicted of the charges of kidnapping, he could face a sentence of life in prison.

court records show that some of the inmates involved said they were checked out of jail for meetings with the defendant in either his car or in his office.

they claim they were abused during these meetings.

however, mr thomas's lawyer, robert clark, has said the alleged victims were trying to ruin his client's career.

in april, he described the situation as a "a high-tech lynching" and said it was politically motivated.

he said: "they don't like uppity black folks, and that's what they consider herman."

mr thomas's license to practice has already been suspended.

he has previously said he was trying to mentor the inmates.

a former democratic state senator and colleague, bob eddington, said: "i've always had the highest regard for him.

"the allegations were a complete surprise to me and everyone else who knew him."

the national association for the advancement of colored people (naacp), a civil rights organisation, has said that mr thomas is being prosecuted because of his race.

the trial is set to last several weeks.

teacher's aides accused of waterboarding autistic boy

great falls, mont. -- two teacher's aides are facing felony charges after allegedly abusing a special needs student.

kristina marie kallies and julie ann parish are each charged with one felony count of assault and one misdemeanor charge of endangering the welfare of children.

they are accused of holding a 13-year-old autistic boy's head under water after he dozed off in class, forcing him to sit in his soiled pants for hours and making him eat his own vomit when he got sick.

parish and kallies both denied abusing the boy, who attended great falls' north middle school from the fall of 2008 until april 2009.

the boy's mother says she learned of the alleged abuse in april 2008, when another staff member sent her an e-mail warning her of garrett's teacher's aides.

maria bubb, a substitute teacher in garrett's classroom in october and november of 2008, said in court documents that the staff was "mean and degrading" to garrett, and that kallies would "point her finger in his face and scream at him."

other teachers testified that they saw garrett's head held under running water and witnessed him being forced to sit in his feces for hours.
