STATE SEX
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Theaters in North Carolina recently began showing, as a short
|
|||
|
feature, a state-funded film advocating teenage sexual abstinence.
|
|||
|
In "The Power To Create Life," a teenage couple in a car are
|
|||
|
contemplating having sex until the sky lights up and an alien
|
|||
|
emperor implores, "You have the power to create life. Don't abuse
|
|||
|
it!" The kids decide to go to a movie instead.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
OOOPS!!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Minneapolis prosecutors were expecting a long and difficult
|
|||
|
child molesting trial against Robert G. Swan because the
|
|||
|
incriminating photographs they had of him blurred his face. Then,
|
|||
|
in January, his wife brought Swan, who was in jail, a fresh change
|
|||
|
of clothing for his court appearance, giving him the very articles
|
|||
|
he was wearing in the photographs. After the clothing turned up,
|
|||
|
Swan quickly pleaded guilty.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- Xavier Hunter, 26, was arrested in Chicago in December of
|
|||
|
robbing the Citibank Federal Savings Bank. Unknown to him,
|
|||
|
President Bush was speaking at the Chicago Board of Trade, less
|
|||
|
than a block away, at the time, and the neighborhood was thus full
|
|||
|
of police officers. As Hunter exited the bank, the chemical dye
|
|||
|
pack in his bounty exploded, alerting the many nearby officers, who
|
|||
|
chased him down despite his futile attempt to abandon the money by
|
|||
|
throwing it into the air as he ran.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- In St Louis in January, Thomas Hall pulled into what looked
|
|||
|
like a fast food restaurant's drive thru to place an order.
|
|||
|
However, the drive thru speaker he yelled into was an intercom
|
|||
|
stand at the Area III St Louis police station. An officer came out
|
|||
|
and arrested Hall for DUI. (The next day, after Hall's arrest made
|
|||
|
local news, DJ "Wacky Pat" Fortune drove up to the same intercom
|
|||
|
stand to out a gag for his listeners. However, an officer checked
|
|||
|
Fortune out on the computer, discovered unpaid traffic violations,
|
|||
|
and arrested him as a fugitive.)

|||
|
|
|||
|
- James Bridgewater, 32, was arrested in Kankakee, Illinois,
|
|||
|
after a mishap at the First of America Bank's drive-in window. He
|
|||

|
|||
|
the other containing two grams of marijuana and rolling papers.
|
|||
|
He put the wrong bag in the pneumatic tube.
