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
|
||
was carrying two white sacks, one containing money for deposit and
|
||
the other containing two grams of marijuana and rolling papers.
|
||
He put the wrong bag in the pneumatic tube.

||
chanting, threw ritual powder on the kids, and warned them that
|
||
their houses would burn down because of their rowdiness. Criminal
|
||
charges of endangering the welfare of a child and making
|
||
terroristic threats were brought against her.
|
||
|
||
- Milford, Utah, high-school teacher Cherry Florence was fired
|
||
in February for an indiscretion. According to the local board of

||
Florence released to her classes a list of which of the school's
|
||
170 teenagers were virgins.

|
||
- Acting Principal Steven Stocker, 31, voted Fredericksburg,
|
||
Virginia, outstanding young educator in 1988, was arrested in
|
||
January after he engaged a 9 year old girl in what the district

||
attorney called a servant-master game. Stocker, the servant, had

||
allegedly kissed the girl's feet and sucked her toes.

|
||
had been bad.
|
||
|
||
- Immokalee, Florida, substitute teacher, Krystal Gail Allen,
|
||
was fired in January after parents complained that she described
|
||
her sex life in great detail to an eighth-grade geography class and

||
invited students to share their own tales with her. One student
|
||
had recorded the class.
|
||

||

|
||
|
||
- In January, burglars at Rich's department store in Salem,
|
||
Massachusetts, were forced to flee empty handed after the welding
|
||
torch they were using to break into a safe accidentally ignited the
|
||
money inside, causing a fire and setting off the store's smoke
|
||
alarm.
|
||
|
||

||
road as he sped at 100mph toward nearby Clearwater, Florida, where
|
||
Barbara Bush was speaking. Hendricks told police he had to warn
|
||
Mrs. Bush that Saddam Hussein was preparing to invade the U.S.

||
police in March, telling them he was the one who had shot a man to

||
he wanted to be the person who committed Richmond's first murder
|
||
of 1992.
