Baby with Harlequin Ichthyosis Has to Be Bathed Twice Per Week in Bleach

June 21, 2018 By Doyle Buehler Leave a Comment

Clorox

Mom says that she has to wash her harlequin ichthyosis son with bleach.

Alicia Barber is a 27-year-old mother of two from the United States. Barber’s story recently became viral, as the woman took to social media to raise awareness on Harlequin ichthyosis, a very rare and, in some cases, fatal condition that affects children. Due to his condition, Barber goes to great lengths to care for her one-year-old son.

 Only 1 in 100 Patients Are Diagnosed with Harlequin Ichthyosis

Barber declared that her life took a totally different turn when baby Jamieson was born. During a recent press appearance, the 27-year-old mother told the reporter that her doctor told her about Jamieson’s condition when she was 7-months pregnant.

At that time, the doctor recommended an abortion, explained to Barber that children diagnosed with Harlequin ichthyosis have no more than two percent chances of surviving their first year of life.

However, the woman decided to keep the child, and, against all the odds, Jamieson lived. Still, Barber declared that life with baby Jamieson is no bed of roses.

Harlequin ichthyosis occurs once at 300,000 births. Patients with this condition have scaly skin, and sudden movements can make the skin crack, leaving them vulnerable to infections.

Medical researchers noted that patients are also prone to dehydration and have trouble maintain constant body temperature.

Barber said that as part of her weekly routine, she needs to bathe baby Jamieson in bleach.

More specifically, the woman washes his skin with a Clorox bleach solution and then, using a special mitt, she exfoliates the scaly patches of skin.

The woman said that this is a painstaking process and that she needs to give Jamieson morphine so that he can tolerate the pain.

Conclusion

Unfortunately, Barber had her fair share of criticism after posting a picture of Jamieson on Facebook. She said that most of the people accused her of leaving the baby too long in the sun.

Still, the woman adores her son and, quite recently, she took to social media and other online channels to raise awareness on harlequin ichthyosis.

Northwest Arkansas Man Sentenced to 50 Years in Prison for Contracting HIV with the Purpose of Infecting Others

June 7, 2018 By Doyle Buehler Leave a Comment

On Monday, a Northwest Arkansas jury found Stephen Koch guilty of purposefully infecting himself with HIV so that he could infect others. He was also found guilty on eight counts of viewing or distributing child pornography and meth possession.

Northwest Arkansas Man With HIV – A Slap in the Face to Disease Survivors

This Monday, a Northwest Arkansas tribunal sentenced Stephen Koch to 50 years in prison after the prosecution managed to prove that the accused deliberately contracted HIV in order to infect other people.

Koch’s sentencing also fueled a state-wide controversy, with survivors calling out for more education and awareness.

Mark Williams, himself an HIV survivor, told a local news outlet that Koch blatantly ‘stupid’ attitude ridicules all people who have had to endure this condition. Mr. Williams declared that he could not fathom why a seemingly normal person would want to live with this malady. The HIV survivor ended his statement by calling Koch’s actions “offensive” and “downright evil.”

Mr. Williams’ opinions regarding Koch’s outrageous behavior appears to be shared by others. For instance, Ruth Coker Burks, an HIV educator, said that what the Northwest Arkansas man did was to throw mud in the faces of all the people who struggled with the condition.

Conclusion

The prosecution made a breakthrough in Koch’s case after analyzing the staggering amount of child pornography stored in his computer and on several flash drives. Court documents reveal that Koch put together a sinister plan to get infected with the disease with the purpose of infecting other people. He even penned down his plan in a document stored on the same computer. The document is under revision.

Williams also said that Kock’s action proves that people like him and Burks must redouble their efforts to teach others about what it’s like to live with a disease such as HIV.

Going back in the land of viral, last week, we were regaled with the story of a Bay City couple who were video bombed by a 3-year-old boy. While the man went down on one knee for his marriage proposal, the woman’s 3-year-old decided that it would be really cool to start watering the daisies.

Unusual Marriage Proposal Taped by Woman’s Oldest Daughter

The protagonists of the latest story that went viral on social media are Allyssa Anter, her boyfriend Kevin Przytula, and, of course, Owen, the woman’s three-year-old son.

As Kevin and Allyssa told a local news outlet, the couple decided to take a stroll around Michigan’s Ring of Friendship. They also brought along Allyssa’s 11-year-old daughter and Owen.

Mind you that this was no good-weather stroll, as Kevin made plans. As the couple was standing near the Ring of Friendship, Kevin asked Allyssa’s daughter to give him the wedding band and to tape the experience.

With Allyssa’s daughter filming, Kevin got on one knee, looked into Allyssa’s eyes and popped the big question.

Meanwhile, Owen the rapscallion, visibly ‘touched’ by his mother’s moment, decided that it would really cool to pee outside.

And so, without second-guessing, the child pulled down his pants and peed in front of the man who was still professing his eternal love.

Of course, the boy’s mother saw what the kid was doing and burst into laughter. Kevin turned around just in time to see Owen watering the daisies.

Conclusion

The couple declared that the marriage proposal was not at all a disaster. In fact, Allyssa said that this has to be the most unusual setting for such a proposal.

Because it was way too amusing, the couple decided to post the clip on their social media accounts. Needless to say, it raked many likes.

Idaho Mother to Serve Time in Prison for Beating her Children Who Ate Too Much Ice-Cream

May 3, 2018 By Doyle Buehler Leave a Comment

Idaho Mother

Idaho mother sentenced for beating two boys with a belt and shaving two girls.

A 26-year-old Idaho mother was recently ordered to spend 30 days in prison and the next four years on probation after beating her four kids over ice-cream. According to the prosecution, the accused her sons with a belt and shaved her daughters’ heads because she caught them eating a tub of ice-cream.

Idaho Mother Admits She Has Unaddressed Anger Issues

Last week, Judge George A. Southworth sentenced 26-year-old Priscilla Zapata, an Idaho mother to 30 days in prison following a domestic incident involving her four children.

According to the court documents, Zapata was arrested earlier this year and charged with several counts of injury to a child. Zapata, who has two boys, ages 3 and 9, and two girls, ages 4 and 9, declared that she lost her temper when she came home and saw her children eating ice-cream out of a bucket.

The woman, who was undergoing anger management therapy long before she sought to punish her ‘misbehaving’ children, told the authorities that it was never her intention to harm her children but rather “send a message.”

According to the authorities, when Zapata saw her children eating sweet, she smacked the two boys with a leather belt and toy. As for the girl, the Idaho mother took them to the bathroom and shaved their heads.

More than that, it would appear that the suspect even grabbed one of her daughters by the throat and slammed her against a wall.

Conclusion

During her trial, Judge Southworth decided to show leniency, dropping the five-year prison sentence proposed by the prosecution. Furthermore, Southworth declared that Zapata attending parenting classes and undergoing treatment for her anger issues are commendable aspects which prove that the woman seeks to better herself.

 

Still, it will be a long time before the Idaho mother could regain the trust of her children who are currently being care by some of her relatives.

Wannabee Robber’s Plans Foiled by Former DeKalb County Police Officer

April 24, 2018 By Doyle Buehler Leave a Comment

DeKalb County Police Officer Held at Gunpoint by Robber

The former DeKalb County police officer was ambushed in his driveway.

The Newton County authorities are on the lookout for an armed robber who assaulted a homeowner on Tuesday shortly after midnight. The victim, a former DeKalb County Police officer, and DA investigator managed to put the robber on the run by firing his weapon.

DeKalb County Police Officer Declared that He Was Ambushed

On midnight Tuesday, Carlos Wicker, a retired DeKalb County police officer was returning home when he was ambushed in his driveway by an individual brandishing a gun.

According to Wicker, the robber was pointing the gun at him and demanded that he relinquish his wallet and other valuables. Little did he know that the homeowner he was holding at gunpoint was a seasoned law enforcement agent, with a career that spans almost two decades, having more than enough experience to tackle an armed suspect.

Wicker told his younger colleagues that the suspect must have been hiding in the bush, waiting for him to return home.

As the suspected threatened to shoot him, Wicker quickly pulled out his concealed gun and fired a single shot at the suspect. Wicker declared that the individual bolted off and boarded a vehicle, probably driven by one of his accomplices.

While the former DeKalb County police officer declared that he had no issue putting the robber on the run, this incident put the entire Riverwalk Farms community on edge, as most of its residents left the city to get away from criminals.

Wicker also confirmed that nothing out of the ordinary happens in the Riverwalk Farms community.

Conclusion

Although the residents fear for their lives, the authorities declared that they’re working the case as fast as possible in order to identify and arrest the individual who attempted to rob Carlos Wicker.

As always, the residents of this community are asked to contact the authorities right away if they have any information regarding the suspect or his getaway vehicle.

Brockton Killer Mother Might Have Been Motivated by Fame and Fortune

April 12, 2018 By Doyle Buehler Leave a Comment

Brockton Killer Mother

Prosecutors claim that the Brockton killer mother might have killed her children to life off donations and to become famous.

Prosecutors announced a breakthrough in the case of Latarsha Sander, the 43-year-old woman who fatally stabbed her children at the beginning of this year. During a press conference held on Tuesday, a Plymouth County District Attorney declared that the Brockton Killer Mother might have slain her children to become famous and live off donations.

Brockton Killer Mother Allegedly Performed Voodoo Ritual

Jessica Kenny, a Plymouth County District Attorney revealed that Latarsha Sanders set in motion a plan to use this tragedy to her benefit. Several court documents show that months before slaying her children, Latarsha set up multiple GoFundMe campaigns and a private P.O. box, dedicated exclusively to fan mail.

More than that, the money received through the GoFundMe campaign would be directed, according to Latarsha’s journal to whoever had the better story. Although the prosecutors never found conclusive evidence to prove that Sanders killed her children for fame and money, it will still be used during the woman’s trial.

At the same time, prosecutors have teamed up with homicide detective in order to investigate another lead that could explain Sanders’ actions.

During her court appearance, Sanders’ mother described her daughter as being mentally unstable. Moreover, the woman also said that her daughter had a long-lived Illuminati obsession which fueled her paranoia to the point she was caught using a baby monitor to eavesdrop on her neighbors.

Sanders’ obsession with Kabbalistic groups such as the Illuminati might have paved the way to other mystical practices. As the woman would declare before the authorities, her children’s deaths were part of a Voodoo ritual whose purpose remains unknown.

As part of this ritual, the murderer claims that she had to stab her children at least 50 times so that the spell could work.

Conclusion

The coroner’s report revealed that Edso Brito, Sanders’ 8-year-old son passed away after receiving 76 puncture wounds. La’son, Edso’s 5-year-old sister, was stabbed 103 times, only 23 of them being fatal. After stabbing the girl, the Brockton killer mother inserted a taper candle in the girl’s throat.

Florida Sisters Bludgeon Woman Driver

Following the Florida sisters assault, the victim required seven stitches.

The Florida authorities are currently looking for two sisters who nearly disfigured a female driver in what appears to be a road rage accident. Victim claims that the two supposed sister chased her down to a shopping plaza’s parking center and assaulted her with a baseball bat. The scuffle was recorded on the woman’s cell phone.

Florida Sisters Irked Because Victim Cut One Off in Traffic

According to the authorities, the events were set in motion on Thursday, at around noon, when 26-year-old Mikaela Barboza was driving on the U.S. 411 freeway, on her way home. The woman told the authorities that she tried making a turn in traffic and, accidentally, cut off a woman.

Minutes later, another call pulled next to her and a female driver ‘calmly’ informer Barboza that it was disrespectful to cut her sister in traffic. The woman drove away only to discover that the Florida sister was pursuing her.

Fearing for her life, the woman drove to a nearby shopping plaza, expecting to lose the two angry drivers. It was not meant to be.

As soon as Barboza pulled her car in the parking lot, one of the two sisters blocked off her car, while the other came at her with a baseball bat.

After a brief exchange of foul words, the woman Barboza cut off in traffic hit her in the head with the baseball bat. Barboza managed to take the bat away before she could swing again.

The two wrestled on the ground for some time, until the woman’s sister came, picked up the baseball bat, and continued hitting Barboza who fought her sister.

Conclusion

After several bystanders intervened, Barboza managed to escape. Unfortunately, so did the Florida sisters.

The woman was taken to the hospital where she required several stitches for her injuries. At the moment, the authorities are trying to locate the two female drivers based on Barboza’s recording.

Salt Lake City Authorities Unsealed Video of 2014 Court Shooting

March 13, 2018 By Doyle Buehler Leave a Comment

Court shooting

Salt Lake authorities have unsealed the tape of the 2014 court shooting.

The Salt Lake City authorities have recently decided to unseal the footage of the 2014 court shooting of a 25-year-old gang member. For safety reasons, the authorities blurred the faces of prosecutors, judge, and the US Marshall who killed the man. The family still intends to file a wrongful-death lawsuit despite the court declaring that the video proves otherwise.

Family’s Attorney Said the Suspect in Court Shooting Could Have Been Subdued with Non-Lethal Means

In 2014, during the trial of 25-year-old Siale Angilau, member of the ill-reputed Tongan Crip gang, involved in robberies, armed assaults, and conspiracy, was standing next to his attorney, when the judge called for an individual to take the witness’s stand.

The recently released video shows Angilau casually taking a pen from his attorney’s pocket, rising from his seat and running towards the man in the witnesses stand. According to court records, when Angilau reached the stand he tried lunging towards the individual behind the stand in an attempt to stop him.

The man dodged, making Angilau fall over the desk. At this point, the 24-second-long reveals an U.S. Marshall, identified only as Jane Doe, cocking her gun and point it towards the suspect who was still holding the pen in his hand.

Seconds later, four distinct gunshots can be heard, while several people scream in horror and the prosecutor hiding under the table. At the end of the video, the US Marshall can be seen standing over the suspect, gun in hand, telling Angilau to drop the pen.

Conclusion

The man was later declared dead on the scene and the tape with the court shooting was sealed, the authorities fearing retaliation from Angilau’s friends.

On Friday, the man’s family filed a wrongful-death lawsuit, affirming that the US Marshall used excessive force to subdue the suspect.
