Anambra police arrest over 40 students for kidnapping and cult activities

40 suspects accused of involvement in criminal activities, including cultism, kidnapping, car snatching and vandalism, were paraded on Wednesday by the Anambra State Police Command.

Parading the suspects, the Commissioner of Police, Hosea Karma, said the cultists, aged between 14 and 16 years, were students of Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, and the Federal Polytechnic, Oko.

Karma told newsmen that the boys, arrested at Obosi, were members of the Black Axe and Vikings, among other cult groups, insisting that the criminals found the town a safe haven to operate because of the recurring land crisis in the community.
Meanwhile, 48 youths from Obosi, who were brought to the police station during the parade, renounced membership of their various cult groups.

They were brought in 5 buses by the Obosi President General, Dan Igbokwubile. They also pledged to assist the community, the police and the state in fighting crimes. Karma disclosed that the suspects snatched 3 cars, while one of them was behind the kidnap of the personal assistant to the former commissioner for works in the state.
The police chief, who disclosed that “the other suspects specialised in vandalising communication masts and electricity cables,” commended Governor Willie Obiano for his support to the security agencies, also thanked the public for their cooperation, especially with useful information.

He listed some of the items recovered as locally-made shot pistols, cutlasses, axes, black and red candles (reportedly used for rituals), drums for their music, a lot of Indian hemp and handsets, among others.
Meanwhile, Karma said the police were now more determined to flush out criminals from their hideouts in order to maintain the existing peaceful environment in the state.

He urged students and young people to face their studies instead of resorting to crime, which does not pay, warning that the long arm of law would always catch them.

Stressing the collective need for government, communities and leaders to rid the state of all undesirable elements, he enjoined parents to monitor the activities of their children.

Bigamist and his 'first' wife charged in death of his pregnant wife

 

A bigamist and one of his wives have been charged on Thursday with the murder of his other wife, who was nine months pregnant with his child.

The pair, Christopher Matthew Henderson, 40 and Rhonda Carlson, 42, of New Market, Alabama, have also been charged in connection with the murder of three other people.
Kristen Chambers Henderson, 35, was found dead along with her son, Clayton Chambers, 8, her mother, Jean Smallwood, 67, and Kristen's nephew, Eli Sokolowski, who was one-year-old. 

In the eyes of the law, the unborn child of Kristen Chambers Henderson, one of four bodies pulled from a fatal fire, will count as another life as her husband and his other wife face capital murder charges.
“In any case, if someone kills a woman, and she is pregnant, then that is killing two people,” explained Bob Becher, chief trial attorney with the Madison County District Attorney’s Office.

That alone qualifies for capital murder charges. The change came with Brody’s Law in 2006, which came about after a pregnant Marshall County woman was shot to death.
“Since 2006, an unborn child, regardless of stage, is considered a person with regard to homicides,” said Becher.
So whether a woman is in her first or final month of pregnancy, the law could count that unborn child as additional life taken.

Police Capt. Dave Jernigan said Kristen Chambers had a hearing in court last week on a protection from abuse order she had filed against Christopher Henderson.  During that court hearing, it was determined he was also married to Rhonda Carlson.

She had then petitioned the court to withdraw the divorce based on the fact that her husband was still married to his first wife and their marriage wouldn't be legal.

She was also granted an order of protection based on her testimony that he had hit her. 

'He has lied about everything since we met,' she wrote in the filing

Capt. Jernigan did not say how the four people died.  He said the investigation is still unfolding as autopsies are being performed on the victims.

 He said it’s believed Christopher Henderson and Rhonda Carlson reacted to the court hearing by going to the residence and committing the act of violence.  Jernigan said there is video from a surveillance system set up at the home that shows both suspects at the house.

The state fire marshal and county fire marshal are trying to pinpoint where the fire started.
The home belongs to her parents.

Marriage records show Carlson and Henderson were married on February 15, 2013.  Henderson and Kristen Chambers were married September 26, 2014.  She filed for divorce in June of this year.
Kristen Henderson lived in the home on St. Clair Lane with her parents, as well as Clayton, her son.

Christopher Henderson and Rhonda Carlson are now in the Huntsville/Madison County Jail, being held without bond.

Bounty hunters mistakenly target sheriff's home

A group of bounty hunters searching for a wanted fugitive only realized they picked the wrong house Tuesday, when the angry local police chief emerged, shirtless.

NorthStar Fugitive Recovery owner Brent Farley, 43, was charged with criminal trespassing and disorderly conduct after his group and another contingent of bounty hunters mistakenly targeted the home of Phoenix police chief Joseph Yahner.

NorthStar and Delta One Tactical Recovery allegedly besieged the house with 11 bounty hunters after receiving a tip on social media pointing them toward a fugitive. After watching the house for two hours, the teams flipped on their headlights, shined flashlights inside the house and began banging on the door, police said. One of the men had his weapon unholstered, according to cops.

A video of the encounter viewed by the Arizona Republic allegedly shows someone yelling, “Roderick, open the door” before getting into a verbal argument with Yahner. After Yahner emerged, a “heated confrontation” ensued, according to Sgt. Trent Crump.

“After awakening [Yahner] from a dead sleep, he comes out in protection mode,” Crump said. “And when he does come out and he challenges them, I think they quickly come to realize [the mistake], with the exception of one of them.”
Farley would not leave the property and continued to give orders to Yahner, Crump said. 

Caitlyn Jenner talks about sex and dating a man

In the latest clip from I Am Cait, Caitlyn Jenner admitted she's still not sure which sex she is more attracted to, a man or a woman.

While having a dinner party with some of her girlfriends, the topic of conversation soon turns to sex and relationships.

'I wanna hear what it's like to date as a trans woman in our community,' Cait's friend - and rumoured girlfriend - Candis Cayne announces.

'Caitlyn you start,' someone shouts, catching the former Olympian off guard.

'Absolutely nothing!' she grins while the room laughs along.

Chandi, another of her friends, then interjects: 'I know for a fact you've said many times that you've only been attracted to women...' 

'I've only been with women,' she clarifies, before declaring: 'I have bigger things than an orgasm to worry about.'

When the table is then asked: 'who's more attracted to men?' Caitlyn looks around intrigued at all the hands drifting up.

When all eyes settle on her, she realises her own hand is half up - and she quickly pulls it down.

'I don't know, I don't know,' she hurriedly replies. 'I've never been with a guy.' 

'You're gonna date women, you're gonna date men, what are you gonna do.... I don't know!' she confesses in frustration.
