I just want to know if she really cheated. That changes everything.

Friends in the DA's office tell me the daughter refused to make the "kaboom" sound when her father had a hit. They're probably going to drop the charges.

If we owned any guns this very well could've been a headline after our Clue game on Sunday.

Not quite sure if this is asinine, but its certainly embarrassing for Nevada the criminal justice system and this judge.

A North Las Vegas doctor who pleaded guilty to three counts of open and gross lewdness involving patients was sentenced Thursday to three years of probation and seven days of incarceration — one day for each of his victims, the judge said.

During the jail time, Clark County District Judge Richard Scotti ordered the doctor, Jorge Burgos, to “reflect, each day, about what you did to each of these women.”

What's more, in white/Hispanic privilege, the judge agreed to let the doctor serve those 7 days only on the weekends so as not to disturb his practice.

After the decision, criminal defense attorney Crane Pomerantz asked the judge if the doctor could serve those seven days over the course of the next three weekends, so as not to interfere with his medical practice. The judge agreed.

That decision did not go over well, particularly with several of the other criminals who were in the courtroom for different cases.

Several relatives and coworkers were present in the courtroom to support Burgos, but the decision drew ire from at least 11 handcuffed defendants seated in the same room for separate cases, several of whom scoffed when the judge allowed the seven days time to be separated over weekends.

“This is some (expletive),” one of them said. A bailiff next to the defendants hissed at them to “shut up.”

Victims told police the doctor kissed and touched them inappropriately during physical examinations at his office, according to his arrest reports.

One woman said she asked Burgos for a dermatologist referral because she had moles she needed checked on both her back and chest. She offered to show him pictures, but Burgos instead lifted up the front of her shirt, lifted up her bra, then touched his mouth to one of her breasts, the report said.

“She told him he needed to stop doing that and he responded, ‘Are you going to get me in trouble?’” the report continued. The woman reported him to police that day.

Medical board apparently unconcerned.

Since his first arrest, the doctor’s medical license has been listed as active with no restrictions, according to the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners website.

As of Thursday afternoon, no changes had been made.

No, that's definitely asinine.

This is a little more asinine than Falafel's. Caught this Desnews headline while scrolling through Twitter earlier.

LOL. This proves all the D-Newz haters wrong: yes, every story does have a mormon/byu connection.

A teenager in Hungary found a flaw in a ticket seller's web site that allowed a person to change the cost of a ticket, then buy it for that lower price. He notified the company of the flaw and they had him arrested for hacking their system.

Police arrested the teenager in the middle of the night shortly after, even if the young man didn't live in Budapest, nor did he ever use the fraudulently obtained ticket.

He posted his experience on Facebook and 45,000 Facebook users left the company a one-star rating.

Sweden’s Transport Agency moved all of its data to “the cloud”, apparently unaware that there is no cloud, only somebody else’s computer. In doing so, it exposed and leaked every conceivable top secret database: fighter pilots, SEAL team operators, police suspects, people under witness relocation. Names, photos, and home addresses: the list is just getting started. The responsible director has been found guilty in criminal court of the whole affair, and sentenced to the harshest sentence ever seen in Swedish government: she was docked half a month’s paycheck.

There was also this interesting quote in the article that pointed me at the above:

It goes to show, again, that governments can't even keep their most secret data under wraps - so any governmental assurances to keep your data safe have as much value as a truckload of dead rats in a tampon factory.

A Florida woman who passed gas in a convenience store pulled a knife and threatened to “gut” a man who complained about it, police said.
Shanetta Yvette Wilson, 37, was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill. Police arrested her on Sunday and booked her at a detention facility in Pompano Beach, where her bail was set at $2,500.
Police say the alleged colon culprit threatened the customer, John Walker, when he complained about her flatulence while standing in line together at a Dollar General store in Dania Beach, according to an affidavit obtained by the Miami Herald.

Walker got into a verbal argument with Wilson “in reference to the defendant farting loudly,” the arrest report states.

Dude, my farts don't stink.

LAS VEGAS - Someone in Las Vegas has been putting tiny cowboy hats on the heads of Las Vegas pigeons, and while you might be asking yourself why, one local onlooker only has one explanation: “the rodeo is in town.”
