Net Crimes & Misdemeanors

NEW DAYTIME TALK SHOW LOOKING FOR CYBER VICTIMS: I can't name the host, but this show will premiere in September. This will be more of an "Oprah" type show, not sensational or like Jerry Springer, but a classy show. For their first show, they are looking for victims of sextortion/online blackmail. They want females under the age of 18, or who had their situation begin when they were under 18, who were blackmailed online with nude/semi nude photos taken of them by an ex boyfriend, friend, etc. They are filming the show in New York City on Friday, August 5th - next Friday. I will be the cyber expert and will be there, so you won't be alone and I will make sure they take good care of you. If you or someone you know fits this, email me ASAP. If you're under the age of 18, we would need your parents/guardian to appear on the show as well. Please repost/share!

"His family thought he had died," health spokesman Sizwe Kupelo told the Sapa news agency.

This caused two mortuary attendants on duty to flee the building in the small town of Libode in the rural Eastern Cape as they thought it was a ghost. After calling for help and returning to find the man alive, an ambulance was sent to fetch the man who had "been exposed to ex...

Arrest reports said the dispute Thursday escalated quickly from argument to slapstick. The victim claimed Batson scratched him on the chest and face before going for the cookware. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Visi...
