27-year-old Cori Lynn Rivelli (FaceBook and MySpace) of Libertyville, Illinois is a therapist for a child advocacy center in Lake Villa. She has been arrested and charged with one count of Criminal Sexual Assault after she allegedly had sex with a 14-year-old boy at the center. She was arrested last Thursday and was still in the Lake County Jail earlier today on $200,000 bond.

According to reports a staff member at Kids Hope United called police after they heard the 14-year-old boy telling another child at the center that he had been having sex with Rivelli since June.

In addition to that report another staff member was allegedly told about the encounter by Rivelli herself. That staff member informed police of the information after staff members were questioned.

Rivelli is supposed to be in court tomorrow mornign for a case review.

45-year-old Barry Loman is the head pro at Lake Spivey Golf Course in Jonesboro, GA. Husband. Father. Grandfather. Sounds like an all-around great guy, except for the part where the FBI arrested him when he allegedly arranged online to meet a minor for sex up in Catoosa County, drove up there from Peachtree City Sunday afternoon and met the FBI instead, getting his ass arrested for child exploitation. Ooops. Barry, you may have just made a mistake there buddy.

Loman, who also runs a golf academy that involves children, has been suspended from Lake Spivey Golf Course pending the legal investigation. According to the golf course they did a background check when he was hired and he doesn’t have anything in his past that would have shown up on it. He also works with the children in groups rather than one on one.

Loman has been charged with Aggravated Child Molestation – Criminal Attempt, Criminal Intent to Manufacture Child Pornography, Reckless Driving and he has also been charged under the Computer Pornography and Child Exploitation Act of 1999. All four charges are felonies (not sure how the reckless driving is a felony, perhaps in concordance with the other charges) and he is currently lodged in the Catoosa County Jail.

Back on May 15th “Big Chris” Fears of Golf Manor, OH allegedly got drunk and raped a 14-year-old girl. Now she’s pregnant with his child. The accusations came out when the girl found out she was pregnant and told her mother that Fears raped her according to court records.

When the girl’s mother confronted Fears he told her that he was drunk at the time and was sorry. He also told her he had come up with the money for an abortion. What a guy!

The mother went to the Golf Manor police station to report the incident and Chris Fears also called police himself except that he called his friend, Police Chief Eddie Taylor, and told him he had “made a mistake and was going to go and turn himself in” At least he had the guts to do the right thing at the end. If only he had done the right thing in the first place.

What sucks is the fact that he didn’t just victimize the 14-year-old girl. He also victimized his wife and children as well.

Chris’ last status update on his MySpace page is “going away for awile love yall”

The man who found his family slain in a mobile home park in Brunswick, GA yesterday and called 911 has been arrested on drug-related charges and police won’t rule him out as a suspect in the murders. 22-year-old Guy Heinze, Jr was arrested late yesterday evening and charged with illegal possession of prescription drugs, possession of marijuana, tampering with evidence and making false statements to police.

One of my first thoughts yesterday was that this was probably drug-related and while Heinze’s arrest certainly doesn’t make it so, it certainly doesn’t move it in any other directions either.

The Chief of Police, Matt Doering did have this to say about Heinze though, “I’m not going to rule him out, but I’m not going to characterize him as a suspect”. He also said that none of the injured or dead people at the scene committed the heinous act, which means that either the suspect that is in custody did it, or the killer is still out there.

The GBI started their autopsies today and once the results are in they will be released to Glynn County. It will take a few days for them to finish the autopsies.

Also in updated news on this story, one of the two survivors flown to the hospital in Savannah, 19-year-old Michael Toler, has died bringing the total number of dead shooting victims to eight now. Three of his siblings are also among the dead. Two of the other victims were related to the Tolers and the other one was a boyfriend of one of the girls who was killed. The Glynn County Police are offering a $25,000 reward for any information in the case, which he should be announcing at a news conference right now.

50-year-old Dr. Steven R. Pack, a physician in Levi, Utah was arrested last Thursday on charges that he was allegedly caught taking photos of employees who were undressing in an exam room. According to the Levi Police he used a hidden camera in the room to capture images of two of his employees, aged 18 and 19, as they changed clothes in an exam room. He was booked into the Utah County Jail on two counts of voyeurism and one count of evidence tampering, all three misdemeanors. He posted bail the same day.

Pack asked the two young ladies to test out some X-Ray equipment and directed them to a specific room to change clothes. While undressing one of the women noticed a camera taped to the wall inside the room. As a result she informed the other employee and then called police and reported it.

Update 2 – This is most assuredly unconfirmed but I’ve been hearing rumors that they have a female that goes by the name of Chrissy in custody related to the murders. There is also another going around that this is a murder/suicide. I will be posting any more updates at the bottom.

Update 1 – Police are now confirming that the victims were shot. More as I get it.

Original Post – Seven people in a Brunswick (Glynn County) mobile home have been killed and two others airlifted to a Savannah hospital in critical condition. A spokesperson for Glynn County does confirm the seven deaths but they aren’t releasing how the people died.

Glynn County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a 911 call at the New Hope Plantation Mobile Home Park after 8 this morning and found the people dead. According to the news report over at WSB the county coroner said there were signs of violence in the trailer.

There are rumors floating around the net that it was a mass shooting and that the two people flown to the hospital were both children. An article at Huliq is also claiming that they were kids. They are also saying that some of the local Brunswick news state that there was a “dispute” at the root of the mass killing. From what I’ve read at First Coast News (a local site) police are not looking for a suspect right now.

Updated 9/3/09 – CNN is reporting that Pastor Daniels was found lying nude behind the altar of her church with her arms outstretched. Her clothes were missing and some type of dissolving agent had been sprayed around her body. According to the autopsy Daniels was stabbed in the side and back of her neck, back and her left breast as well as her hands, which was most likely a defensive injury. They also say that part of her hair appeared burned or singed.

Original Post – 61-year-old Carol F. Daniels was the Pentecostal pastor of The Christ Holy Sanctified Church. While she had no regular congregation in her small church she still went every Sunday on the chance that someone would come to pray. Local police found her body around noon last Sunday after a visitor stopped at the church but found the doors locked and Daniels’ car parked there.

Aside from the fact that the horrible murder happened in the first place there are even more disturbing details. The local police are being very close-mouthed in the case but one thing that has been released is that whoever murdered Carol Daniels arranged her body in an “unnatural position” after they killed her.

The cause of death has been announced as “multiple sharp force injuries”. Earlier this week the District Attorney, along with Law Enforcement met in a closed-door session with over 20 local pastors. While they were given no information about the case they were told that they needed to take precautions in their buildings.

The fact that she was stabbed multiple times sounds like someone that was pretty angry and from all of the stuff I’ve ever read about serial killers, the body being arranged means that whoever did it wants credit for the murder. Maybe they don’t want to be caught but they do want “their” murder to be recognized. Police most likely met with the pastors because they think it’s highly probable that whoever murdered Daniels may try again. After I started writing and researching this I found a couple more links (below) that pretty much say the same thing.

61-year-old Charles E. Amy of Ball Ground, GA was arrested last night on charges of child porn after the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office completed an investigation they have been doing for the last month.

The Cherokee Sheriff’s Office Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force executed a search warrant last night and found thousands of videos and pictures containing child pornography on his computer. Charles Amy has been charged with 40 counts of Sexual Exploitation of Children.

He is currently being held at the Cherokee Adult Detention Center without bond.

Last year I wrote about Michelle Lynn Kehoe. Michelle is the woman from Coralville, IA who allegedly taped her sons’ eyes, noses and mouths shut and then sliced their throats. One of the boys lived and initially Kehoe made up some cock and bull story about being kidnapped but she eventually recanted that.

Kehoe still hasn’t had her trial, almost a year later, and now her attorney doesn’t think that she can get a fair trial in Buchanan County due to the media coverage of the case and wants it moved. As a matter of fact her attorney, Public Defender Andrea Dryer stated that there were some online comments on web sites that included profanities and opinions (say it isn’t so!) about what should be done with Kehoe.

Her attorney has asked a judge to consider putting together a mock jury in order to see if Kehoe could get a fair trial in Buchanan County. The hearing, which Kehoe attended, was this past Wednesday. The prosecution opposes both requests and says that while there has been a lot of coverage it was state wide and she is no more likely to get a different jury in a different county than she is in Buchanan.

The judge has delayed his decision in the matter and a hearing has been set for September 18th to consider it.

Update 9/29/09 – The trial for Michelle Kehoe will no
longer take place in Buchanan County. It has been moved to Grundy
County in order to make sure that she gets a fair trial. The defense
team for Kehoe is planning on pursuing an insanity defense, which for a
change I tend to agree with. I don’t think that makes her any less
guilty but she needs to be incarcerated in a mental institution
somewhere where she can’t hurt anyone else.

Update II 11/6/09 – After deliberating for just over an hour and a half the jury has found Michelle Kehoe guilty of First-Degree Murder, Attempted Murder and Child Endangerment Causing Serious Injury. She faces a possible sentence of life in prison without parole for the heinous murder of one of her sons.

I don’t have a mug shot for this guy yet, but as soon as I do I’ll get it up here. I’m sure it will be worth the wait…

Yesterday afternoon 23-year-old Arris Pitmon forced his was onto a bus full of kids from the Forrest Hills Academy and attacked a student as well as the bus driver. He fought with them for a minute and then got back into the driver’s seat. It ended up jumping a sidewalk and finally crashed into a fence. Two people ended up getting hurt as well, but no serious injuries, which is lucky.

Then things got really weird.

The kids had been escaping out of the back of the bus one by one along with the bus driver who stopped cars trying to get someone to call 911. Several bystanders along with some of the parents surrounded the bus. According to their statements Pitmon was sitting in the driver’s seat with no shirt, his sweat pants down around his knees and a condom on his willy. At least Arris won’t be catching any STDs from his bus trip, but I can’t say what’ll happen once he’s in the pokey.

Pitmon finally got off the back of the bus and fell into the group of people who had surrounded the bus and started beating the crap out of Pitmon. One of the bystanders got them to calm down and they pinned Pitmon until police arrived.

Update – Arris Pitmon has been charged with 13 counts of false imprisonment, 13 counts of reckless conduct, four counts of battery, one count of theft by taking an automobile, one count of interference with government property and one count of damaging property.

I’m going to keep this post short and to the point. I took the evening off tonight to enjoy a movie with my girls but they are in bed and I noticed that I had several breaking news alerts concerning the discovery of a girl who was kidnapped in 1991 and the arrest of her captor, an American version of Josef Fritzl. There are several other sites that are already covering this in depth and so I will link to them at the bottom of the post.

The gist of the story is that 11-year-old Jaycee Lee Dugard was abducted in 1991 right in front of her step-father who was watching her walk to catch the school bus. Phillip Garrido, a convicted sex offender has been arrested along with his wife Nancy for keeping Dugard in a shed in his back yard for the last 18 years along with her two children whom Phillip Garrido fathered.

Yuck.

Here are links you’ll want to check out for the full story, True Crime Report has an extremely well-done and documented post and My Life of Crime has lots of links.

Last night a local tow truck driver in Tampa was just driving around looking for people to, you know, tow. That’s when he came across a 1995 Nissan parked in an apartment complex in a resident’s space and no resident’s sticker. He drove around for a few minutes looking for something better to steal tow and since there were no other suckers around he took some pictures, hooked up the Nissan and got it up on his truck.

About that time he noticed a baby in a car seat in the Nissan and flipped, as I am sure all of us would if we were car-jacking tow truck drivers. Anyway, he called his dispatcher who told him to call police. So he did. He told police that the car had to have been there for awhile because the windshield was wet from where it had rained earlier. By the time that police arrived he had already been there with the baby for close to half an hour.

It took another half an hour before anyone called the tow company about the baby and of course they were directed to police. It was an hour before anyone showed up for the baby. As a matter of fact, when they called the tow company, the woman didn’t ask about the baby, she asked about the car.

Pretty recently the Putnam County Sheriff put out a press release which in effect said that Misti Cummings (Croslin) was hindering the search for Haleigh Cummings by not being as forthcoming with information as she could be. A nice way of saying she’s full of shit and most likely knows what happened to Haleigh.

Two days later Misti called Tim Miller from EquuSearch asking for his help again and wanting them to continue the search for Haleigh and also to help clear her name.

Miller arranged for Misti to take a lie detector test in Orlando last week and according to Tim Miller she failed “miserably”. There were two parts to the test, written and voice analysis, ands she failed both. There was also supposed to be a hypnotism session but she fought being put under so there were no results from that.

I don’t think it’s ever been in question by anyone with more than half a brain that Misti knows more than she’s saying and I think that the Putnam County Sheriff is getting real tired of it. Hopefully one day soon we’ll know the answers.

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.
We Should Not Only Mourn These Men And Women Who Died, We Should Also Thank God That Such People Lived

Denise’s MySpace 1 & 2

Back on the 15th of August a dead baby girl was found in a dumpster by a homeless guy looking for bottles and stuff to recycle. After an investigation it was found to be the baby of Denise Louise Flanary of Medford, Oregon. A Jackson County Grand Jury indicted the 19-year-old woman of second-degree abuse of a corpse and concealing the birth of an infant.

Denise was arrested yesterday at her home in Medford on those charges and was lodged in the Jackson County Jail on $10,000 bond. The abuse charge is a felony and punishable by a max sentence of five years and a fine up to $125,000. She made bail the same day and was released.

On the MySpace page that Denise logged into most recently her status says “didn’t have a great day, good thing GOD is on my side…Hopefully tomorrow will be much better”. Somehow I doubt it Denise.

Here’s the thing that gets me. Oregon is one of those states that has a safe haven law, which means that you can leave a baby at a hospital, birthing center, sheriff’s office, police or fire station NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

Original Post – 39-year-old Gina Leigh Sabin of Cartersville, GA has been charged with two counts of aggravated child molestation. She turned herself in to the Bartow County Sheriff’s Office Tuesday afternoon. Sabin teaches 5th grade at Cloverleaf Elementary and her husband is a principal at a local high school. While police reports detail that the victim is a student in Bartow County they also say that the student does not attend Cloverleaf.

According to the Bartow County Sheriff the victim is a male who is younger than 16 but that’s all they would say concerning the arrest.

Sabin, who has been teaching for 11 years, is on paid leave pending the legal investigation.

Updated 9/3/09 – Gina Sabin has been released from the Bartow
County Jail on $40,000 bond. Superior Court Judge David Smith set bond
this past Tuesday and stipulations include she have no contact with the
victim, supervise of have no contact with any children other than her
own and not be allowed on school property.

Updated 9/26/09 - According to an unnamed source Sabin does have
alibis that prove each incident that the boy has accused her of are
untrue. I have offered to post her side of the story and should they
contact me I will post another update to the story. I have also
attempted to contact her listed attorney as well.

Updated 9/30/09 – I attempted to contact Gina Sabin’s attorney late last week and as of yet have had no comment from anyone other than the unnamed source I mentioned last week.
