How did the convicted murderer if he was locked up in a cell able to overpower a prison guard? Was the prison guard so naive that he had to go really close to this man's cell and expect that he wouldn't "try anything?" Considering the fact that "Kamron T. Taylor . . . has a history of escape...

Even if you fell you are right, disagreements with superiors tend to end badly most of the time. No one loves to have his/her authority questioned and they'll do whatever it takes to "put you in your place." I know an ex-cop who was [very] combative. He lost his job very fast.

I believe that most police officers know their presence is intimidating. In fact a number of them expect you to act all nervous when they approach. Even if you aren't then you are expected to act submissive nonetheless. So yeah, I guess cops do understand that many people get nervous around them.

After a recess chess match, the loser a 5th grader upset that he'd been beaten went straight to a window and before anyone could guess what he was up to, dove out headfirst. The 25 foot dive didn't kill him instantly though. He died several hours later in a hospital. Dumont boy, 10, jumped...

A Maine woman returning home caught her boyfriend trying to sexually assault a child. After she confronted him, a fight ensued and the man followed her outside. Guessing that the man would probably physically assault her, she used the only weapon that would stop the bastard. Daily News BDN...

You could try to plead with the police officer to let you go "that one time." Not that it would make much of a difference but you never know. Sometimes a cop may decide to let you off if the offense isn't that serious. But as others have mentioned the best way to avoid punishment is . . . to be...

I've done or at least I've offered to help some people with what I'm good at and most of them thought I was no good so they lost out. With mentoring it's much better if those who are interested in learning something to approach you. I know though I owe a huge debt which must be paid forward so...

Much as I am not a vegetarian, I'd eat beans and rice for a lifetime. You get all nutrients you need from that [food] combination so one could eat only beans and rice for the rest of their lives and still be quite healthy. And . . . they're cheap.

Drug dealers are getting to be more "creative." No more dealing in back streets, dark alleys and decrepit neighborhoods. Who would suspect that anyone would be selling heroine at a daycare center? Good thing though is something like this can't be kept a secret forever. It's time those who...

The kind of things people fight over these days! Food. An Ohio woman who apparently likes salsa a little bit too much stabbed her boyfriend repeatedly in the stomach with a pen because he "ate all the salsa." Well, she'll find it a lot harder to leave the prison she'll end up in.

DEA agents again. The agency has been getting a bad rep of late. Consorting with drug cartels, stealing bitcoins and a lot of other crimes. I always tell people bitcoin isn't the best investment. Not only is their value volatile but it looks like they [bitcoin invetors] now have something to...

A lot of the bad things which happened to me were out of my control so I can't really say I regret having wasted time in school because I had no choice. I wanted to drop out of school when I was in 3rd grade because by then I'd realized there was nothing I'd gain . . . and to be honest all the...

Police work is risky and of late the media has been bashing cops too much. That sort of criticism can make a job look less appealing and because of that, fewer people will be interested in it. Then there's the existing negative attitude towards the police in many communities. When one thinks...

There's a woman I knew who when she'd lost her job, got herself in the way of a car backing out of a parking lot, got hit and she demanded that the driver "compensate" her or else . . . From what I heard she got a $100 or so dollars. Not much but considering that she wasn't injured at all. ...

He lost his mind? Maybe he should say he didn't intend to kill his wife, not that he lost his mind but even that is inexcusable. He dialed 911 once the deed was done, didn't he? How would someone who'd lost his mind do that? The children I believe, will be safer when the murderer is locked up in...

Smart criminal. Why go through all that then turn himself in? I just read a story about a woman who posed as a lawyer for ten years and her deceit was discovered only when she was named partner. State prosecutors contend Kitchen fooled BMZ Law by forging a law license, bar exam results, an...

Grabbed the money then sped off in his car. The creep! Or is it creeps? There were two people with him in the car. Are the passengers also guilty by association? Last month a man was arrested for stealing $300 from a girl scout cookie booth. Hope this thief also gets caught soon. No one...

Bullying . . . I've been on the receiving end. And the perpetrators were teachers. This sort of bullying never gets the sort of attention it should because parents aren't likely to believe their kids when they are told that a teacher is bullying them. Anyway, now, parents must accept the fact...

A Vancouver police officer smashed a motorist's window for refusing to comply with his demands before dragging him out. The police officer "had smelled marijuana" but for some reason, the driver who claims he's prescribed marijuana for medical purposes refused to get out of his car when the...

My parents were and still are those people who think TV was evil so I never watched a movie at home when I was young. That's why it's easy for me to remember the first movie I watched. I was 7 years old then. We used to sneak out of school [it was a boarding school] on weekends to watch movies...
