Snippets - crime

Escapee spammer in murder-suicide............
Having had the help of his wife to escape - both of their bodies and their 3-yr-old daughter's body were found in a SUV - along with a teenager who had been shot in the neck and a baby (unhurt).
U.S. Attorney Troy Eid says it all:

"What a nightmare, and such a coward," U.S. Attorney Troy Eid said. "Davidson imposed the 'death penalty' on family members for his own crime."

5-yr-old investigated for sex crimes
No - I did not get the age incorrect or mean 15 instead of 5. A 5-yr-old is believed to responsible for sexual assault concerning two 4-yr-olds.
What can anyone say about this? At 5 yrs old you look at the parents and say 'WTF?'
When it comes to kids committing crimes - even the best parents can be stunned by their teenage darlings being involved in something they genuinely had no idea about. Kids go out - get led into things they know is wrong - peer pressure can get to the best of them. Most will however stop at anything relating to abuse/sex-crimes.
But a 5-yr-old - there is something seriously wrong. It could be the parents and I truly dread to think how their family is run if they are connected to this child's behaviour. It could be that the child is himself being abused and is portraying the same behaviour on to others. The child is apparently still with his parents - unless this has been updated since.
A message runs at the bottom of this news story that every parent should heed - take notice of what your kids tell you - and teach them appropriately as to what is acceptable and what is not.

Child care centre investigated after child slips out.......
Apparently the child had asked to use the bathroom and slipped out a fire door - crossed 2 busy roads - bough a drink at a service station and was found in nearby Hooters parking lot where an employee found him (thank God) and called the police.
I understand fully that the law requires fire exit doors to remain unlocked. It is the same here. What I do not understand is why the damn doors were not alarmed so that any opening could be detected - especially in a day care centre.
The poor father of the child went to pick up his son to find he was not there - I bet that man never prayed so much in his life! I bet he is also finding new care provision for the child too along with the rest of the parents there - I know I would be.

10-yr-old slashes woman.........
for refusing to give him a cigarette or should I say from trying to stop them from taking a lit cigarette from her mouth.
'The area surrounding the station is very isolated, which is a problem.' (Jason Grant - district manager for Thornton Heath and Selhurst.)
NO - that is not the problem. We should be able to walk anywhere without fear of being attacked. Let's hope if this kid is caught that he is not able to use that as a defence - but hey ho - he'll only get a smack on the wrist anyway and told to run along and play!
