As older brothers, we certainly don’t want to discourage fraternal obedience, but sometimes you’ve just got to say no to your older brother. For example, if he asks you to swallow an ounce of cocaine he’s hiding in his buttocks, you should refuse. Case in point: 20 year old Wayne Joshua Mitchell died last month after swallowing an ounce of cocaine that had been hidden in his 23 year old brother’s buttocks. Mitchell was attempting to protect his brother from a long prison sentence, but they were unaware that their entire interaction was videotaped in the back of a police car

Video from inside the police car captured a conversation between the brothers, where Deangelo pleads with his younger brother to take the cocaine in his bottom and eat it to get rid of it.

“One of us gotta do it, you the only one that don’t have any strikes. …You my little brother… I’m gonna get life,” Deangelo said to Wayne.

Deangelo was bailed out the next day, but has now been rearrested and charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of his loyal brother.

After 77 years of marriage, including a short separation a decade ago, a 99 year old Italian man, Antonio C, has finally found the excuse he’s been waiting for to divorce his wife. Recently, while going through some drawers, Antonio found letters his wife had written to a lover in the 1940s.  Confronted with the letters, 96 year old Rosa confessed and apologized, but Antonio decided the divorce must proceed. Antonio appears to be the oldest person to ever file for divorce. We guess he was waiting for his grandchildren to grow up

Tip: Throwing your half-naked mistress out the window is not an effective strategy for keeping your infidelity from being discovered.

Buenos Aires (Agencies): A woman suffered various injuries and traumas after falling from the second floor window of a building located in the Argentine province of Salta.


The injured person, identified as Yesica Tarifa, 23, was found injured and unable to move on the sidewalk. Paramedics took her to a nearby hospital where she was admitted with a fractured tibia and collar bone.


According to reports, before falling from the window the young woman was having sexual relations with Sebastián Alberto Madrazo, 27, lead singer of the folklore group Los Teuco, in an apartment in the building. Apparently when he heard his wife open the door to the apartment, and to avoid his infidelity being discovered, Madrazo grabbed the girl and threw her half naked out the window.

Argentine Police later detained the singer, who admitted that she was the girl he threw out the window due to his desperation about not being discovered by his wife, who is also a friend of the girl.

LaDondrell Montgomery had an airtight alibi for his whereabouts during a December 13,2009 armed robbery.  He was in prison for another crime. Unfortunately, neither prosecutor, nor defense attorney, nor even the defendant realized this.  As a result, Montgomery was convicted and sentenced to life in prison for a crime he could not have committed.  Shortly after the conviction, attorney Richard Ray, representing Montgomery in several other robbery cases, discovered the error.  Prosecutor and Defense Attorney joined in requesting the verdict be nullified, which the Judge agreed to.

State District Judge Mark Kent Ellis shook his head as he berated Ray and prosecutors for the oversight. “It boggles the mind that neither side knew about this during trial,” Ellis said Thursday. “Both sides in this case were spectacularly incompetent.”The judge personally apologized to Montgomery, who stood at the bench in an orange jail uniform.

Perhaps we need a checklist for attorneys on both sides that must be filled out prior to trial.  “Was the defendant in prison at the time of the crime?” seems like a question that should be answered before the expense of a trial and the sentencing of  an innocent man to life in prison.

British Airways was concerned about morale among cabin crews.  Rather than look at scheduling, pay, or working conditions, the airline developed a brilliant morale-boosting plan. Dubbed “Hug a Pilot”, the program urged cabin crew to mix more and socialize with pilots.  The Daily Mail reports that at least one stewardess decided a mere hug was insufficient.  The efforts of the stewardess and the married pilot to make the skies a bit friendlier have left the teenage stewardess pregnant and grounded, and the married pilot admitting to the affair on the foreign stopover.  We’re not sure whose morale was boosted, and look with trepidation to BA’s next morale-boosting initiative.

For one 21 year old woman in Portland, Oregon, the question of what to do with a dead horse recently had a bizarre answer: strip naked and crawl inside. The 32 year old horse “was put down humanely, with a single shot to the brain from a high powered rifle.. When asked why she had done this, the woman stated that “there was nothing religious about what she did and didn’t intend to offend anyone. She said she was just curious and nothing else.”

Local police were quite disturbed, but were unable to file charges.

“At some during point you in your career you say, ‘Yeah, I’ve seen a lot of bad stuff.’ You see this kind of picture and you realize maybe you haven’t seen everything,” said the deputy.

Perhaps the case is best summed up by the woman’s mother who stated that “it was the sweetest meat she’d ever tasted, but she wished her daughter didn’t take the photos.”

Failing to accept that his marriage his over, unemployed equity analyst Todd Remis has sued H & H photography, alleging that the firm failed to capture the last 15 minutes of his ill-fate nuptials, and demanding that they gather everyone back together and recreate the event in order to capture the moment for posterity.  Mr. Remis waited 6 years to file the suit, by which time his marriage was over.  He is not even sure where his ex-wife is, although she is said to have moved back to Latvia.

Mr. Remis has taken standard Wall Street practice to a new level. Whereas many analysts keep their Buy ratings on until the company actually files for bankruptcy, generally they withdraw their rating at that point. By reiterating his Buy post-marriage, Mr. Remis pushes the profession forward to new levels.
