Twitter User Post PIC Of Passed-Out Girl with Plan to Rape Her

A man who apparently posted a troubling image of a passed-out girl onto Twitter and made a sick rape joke – enraging thousands online – is to be investigated by police in Georgia.

Identified only as RichlonelyJuan on social media, the Twitter user sparked the controversy at 1.09 am on January 1 when he posted a photograph of what seems to be a girl lying on her back covered in vomit and added that he and his brother were going to sexually assault her.

The disturbing picture and shocking threat quickly traveled around the Internet and despite RichlonelyJuan’s insistence that the whole thing was a joke that got out of hand, authorities have confirmed that they will be conducting a thorough investigation.

In this tweet – one of the men involved refused to break the pretense that the whole thing was just one very bad joke

In tweets immediately after his first, RichlonelyJuan, whose identity has not yet been confirmed, even tried to insinuate that the girl had stopped breathing and no longer had a pulse.

As he became inundated with concerned people asking whether this was actually occurring live on Twitter, the bad joker tried to claim some honor among thieves and questioned why he would ever turn himself in.

Another Twitter user TaBarius then popped up online and posted a picture of a girl who looked like the poor individual covered in vomit.

This girl however was dressed and asleep, albeit curled up in a fetal position.

Next tweet: This tweet sent by another individual seemed to show the same girl now dressed in new clothes – albeit with a creepy message

Taking to Twitter, Tabarius said ‘I changed her clothes…shes sleeping piecefully (sic) for now..’

After that around 3.26 am, his tweets became ominous and as he claimed the girl was trapped in the trunk of his car and asked his Twitter followers to retweet if he should let her live and favorite for him to kill.

However, it seems that the entire episode was a very bad joke played out online by Tabarius and RichlonelyJuan – one that spiraled out of control.

Taking to social media during the day on January 1 to claim that he had found the picture online and that the entire episode was a joke – RichlonelyJuan still had to defend himself from those who did not find the situation amusing.

Horrifying: This message seemed to suggest that TaBarius wanted his Twitter followers to vote for the girls life

One woman fired back at him to remind him of the case of Justine Sacco, who was fired from her job last month for making an inappropriate joke about HIV and her race before she boarded a flight to South Africa.

Another hoped that his bad-taste sense of humor would follow him in his professional life.

According to Buzzfeed, Dana Pierce, a public information officer for Cobb County said the police department did not have the names of the men who posted the photographs.

‘How are we going to find them?’ asked Pierce. ‘We could find their IP addresses, but we’re not going to do that on New Years Day… They [the detectives] will probably really sink their teeth into the case tomorrow.’

No laughing matter: One woman fired back at him to remind him of the case of Justine Sacco, who was fired from her job for making an inappropriate joke about HIV and her race in South Africa
Anger: This Twitter user engaged in animated conversation with RichlonelyJuan to tell him his joke was vile and that she hope future employers see this

While saying they had been contacted by a member of the public who assured them there was no truth behind the grim picture, Pierce said that police would continue to investigate.

‘The alleged incident that has gone viral is not a crime. We need a lot more evidence to prove that this happened.’

This Republican Tell Lies About Abe Lincoln

Arizona Republican gubernatorial hopeful Al Melvin is using quotes from Abe Lincoln in his running fight with President Barack Obama and his policies.

The problem: The 16th president never said the things about class warfare Melvin is quoting.

For example, in postings last week on Twitter, the state senator from Tucson wrote, “You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.” That quote, Melvin said, came from Lincoln.

Ditto for a quote of, “You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich,” and “You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.”

None of these came from Lincoln, Brooks Simpson, a professor of history at Arizona State University, said when asked about the quotes by Capitol Media Services.

“I can tell you that these quotes are spurious,” Simpson said. “They do not appear in Lincoln’s writings or in his recollected words.” Melvin said he got the quotes from a Republican club newsletter.

Man Murdered His Two Young Daughters, then Committed Suicide on New Year’s Day

Insanity, 2014 style.

An unhinged Arizona dad gunned down his two young daughters before turning the weapon on himself in a shocking double murder-suicide just hours into the new year.

Police say Alejandro Gallardo, 45, killed the 6- and 8-year-old girls some time early Wednesday in the Phoenix suburb of Tolleson before he took his own life, the Arizona Republic reports.

Cops learned of the killings about 10 a.m. Wednesday.

“It’s very somber; this is the time of year when we should be rejoicing with our family,” Sgt. Obed Gaytan, a Tolleson police spokesman, told the newspaper. “It’s sad this sort of incident happened.”

Neighbors reported hearing fireworks as residents rang in the new year — blasts which may have masked the sounds of Gallardo’s sickening slaughter.

Other neighbors recalled past incidents of domestic violence between a man and a woman at the house. A young girl, of no certain relation to the dead, appears to have stumbled upon the carnage.

Boston Bombing Scammer Files Suit Against Police for Arresting Him

BOSTON — A man charged with trying to bilk the Boston Marathon bombing victims’ fund out of more than $2 million has filed a federal lawsuit claiming state police violated his constitutional rights when they arrested him.

Branden Mattier, 23, alleges police misconduct and is seeking $100,000 in damages, according to the suit filed in U.S. District Court in Boston on Dec. 23 and reported Tuesday by the Boston Herald.

Mattier, of Boston, and his brother filed a claim with The One Fund using the name of a dead aunt, prosecutors said. They claimed she had lost both legs in the attack. Mattier was arrested July 2 when he allegedly accepted a fake check for almost $2.2 million from an undercover state trooper posing as a delivery driver.

His suit says state police never received permission from The One Fund to make a phony check in the organization’s name. Mattier named the state police, a trooper assigned to the state attorney general’s office and FedEx as defendants in the lawsuit.

State attorney general’s spokesman Brad Puffer said he had no comment on the lawsuit.

Mattier and his brother had an appointment to test drive a $52,000 Mercedes Benz the day they expected the check to arrive, prosecutors said.

Mattier is free on $10,000 bail after pleading not guilty to conspiracy to commit larceny, attempt to commit larceny and identity fraud. He is under GPS monitoring and is not allowed to leave the state.

Airline passenger’s complaint about Man The Size of an “infant Hippopotamus” Goes Viral –

This letter was sent to an Australian airline, by a passenger named Rich Wisken. Mr Wisken had a complaint and needed the airline to know about his experience on a recent flight.

Apparently, Wisken paid extra for a certain seat for a flight from Perth to Sydney, but instead was given a seat next to a man as big as ‘an infant hippopotamus’ and who smelled like ‘blue cheese’ and a ‘Mumbai slum’.

Needless to say, his letter went viral!

Traveller Rich Wisken wrote on a blog that he paid an extra $A25 (£13.50) for an exit row seat, expecting to travel from Perth to Sydney with more room than a normal economy seat.

MR WISKEN’S LETTER TO JETSTAR POSTED ON HIS BLOG

Dear Jetstar…

Do you like riddles? I do, that’s why I’m starting this letter with one. What weighs more than a Suzuki Swift, less than a Hummer and smells like the decaying anus of a deceased homeless man? No idea? How about, what measures food portions in kilograms and has the personal hygiene of a French prostitute? Still nothing? Right, one more try. What’s fat as f***, stinks like shit and should be forced to purchase two seats on a Jetstar flight? That’s right, it’s the man I sat next to under on my flight from Perth to Sydney yesterday.

As I boarded the plane, I mentally high-fived myself for paying the additional $25 for an emergency seat. I was imagining all that extra room, when I was suddenly distracted by what appeared to be an infant hippopotamus located halfway down the aisle.

As I got closer, I was relieved to see that it wasn’t a dangerous semi-aquatic African mammal, but a morbidly obese human being. However, this relief was short-lived when I realised that my seat was located somewhere underneath him.

Soon after I managed to burrow into my seat, I caught what was to be the first of numerous fetid whiffs of body odour. His scent possessed hints of blue cheese and Mumbai slum, with nuances of sweaty flesh and human faeces sprayed with cologne – Eau No.

Considering I was visibly under duress, I found it strange that none of the cabin crew offered me another seat. To be fair, it’s entirely possible that none of them actually saw me. Perhaps this photo will jog their memories.

Pinned to my seat by a fleshy boulder, I started preparing for a 127 Hours-like escape. Thankfully though, the beast moved slightly to his left, which allowed me to stand up, walk to the back of the plane and politely ask the cabin crew to be seated elsewhere. I didn’t catch the names of the three flight attendants, but for the purpose of this letter, I’ll call them: Chatty 1, Chatty 2 and Giggly (I’ve given them all the same surname – Couldnotgiveash***).

After my request, Chatty 1 and Chatty 2 continued their conversation, presumably about how s*** they are at their jobs, and Giggly, well, she just giggled. I then asked if I could sit in one of the six vacant seats at the back of the aircraft, to which Giggly responded, “hehehe, they’re for crew only, hehehe”. I think Giggly may be suffering from some form of mental impairment.

I tried to relocate myself without the assistance of the Couldnotgiveas*** triplets, but unfortunately everyone with a row to themselves was now lying down. It was then I realised that my fate was sealed. I made my way back to Jabba the Hutt and spent the remainder of the flight smothered in side-boob and cellulite, taking shallow breaths to avoid noxious gas poisoning. Just before landing,

I revisited the back of the plane to use the toilet. You could imagine my surprise when I saw both “crew only” rows occupied by non-crew members. I can only assume Giggly let them sit there after she forgot who she was and why she’s flying on a big, shiny metal thing in the sky.

Imagine going out for dinner and a movie, only to have your night ruined by a fat mess who eats half your meal then blocks 50% of the screen. Isn’t that exactly the same as having someone who can’t control their calorie intake occupying half your seat on a flight? Of course it is, so that’s why I’m demanding a full refund of my ticket, including the $25 for an emergency row seat.

I’m also looking to be compensated for the physical pain and mental suffering caused by being enveloped in human blubber for four hours. My lower back is in agony and I had to type this letter one-handed as I’m yet to regain full use of my left side. If I don’t recover completely, I’ll have to say goodbye to my lifelong dream of becoming Air Guitar World Champion. If that occurs, you will pay.

To discuss my generous compensation package, email me at: richwisken@hotmail.com, or tweet me at: @RichWisken

No regards,

Rich Wisken.

Lack of Sleep ‘Damages the Brain in a Similar Way to being Hit on the Head’

Ever feel like you’ve been hit on the head after a bad night’s sleep? According to scientists, the thought isn’t as far-fetched as it seems.

A study found going without sleep for just one night causes changes in the brain similar to those that occur after a blow to the head.

The researchers said the healthy young men examined in the study showed a spike in the same chemicals which indicate brain damage.

Being sleep deprived causes a similar change in the brain to that seen after a head injury – it results in a spike in the chemicals associated with brain injury

Professor Christian Benedict, of Uppsala University, Sweden, explained that the chemcials NSE and S-100B are biomarkers for brain damage, such as concussion.

He said: ‘What we found was their levels in the blood rose in the group that went without sleep for a night. This was not to the extent that would happen after a head injury, for instance, but it was still significant.

The brain requires sleep to cleanse itself of toxic substances. A lack of sleep is associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s

‘During sleep, the brain cleans itself of toxic substances and NSE and S-100B increase in response to these substances.’

He said the findings back up previous research showing how the brain uses sleep to cleanse itself.

Professor Benedict also said his study could support previous studies which linked a lack of sleep with increased risk of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and multiple sclerosis.

The rise of the chemicals in the blood after sleep loss may suggest not getting enough sleep is conducive to a loss of brain tissue, he explained.

Professor Benedict, whose study is published in the journal Sleep, added: ‘In conclusion, the findings of our trial indicate a good night’s sleep may be critical for maintaining brain health.’

A third of the UK population suffer from sleep-related problems, while the average person now sleeps for only seven hours a night, compared with almost nine a few decades ago.

Many scientists believe irregular sleeping patterns lead to illnesses ranging from aches and pains to heart disease, while less than eight hours’ sleep a night can lower the IQ the next day.
