Yair Anthony Carillo, a Nashville baby kidnapped by a woman posing as an immigration agent, has still not been found. An Amber Alert has been issued after the baby was taken from his home and his mother, Maria Gurrolla, was stabbed eight times by the kidnapper. Ms. Gurrolla survived the attack and is recovering in the hospital. Police initially had a person of interest in the case, but have since located that woman and the baby was not with her.

You can find the official release from the Nashville Police Department here. Also see a video about the case below.

UPDATE: The Amber Alert Issued for pregnant 12 year old Keara Hess and her sister Sierra has been cancelled. The girls and their adoptive father, Matthew Hess, have been found in Tennessee. No information has been given as to the health of the girls or the unborn child. Obviously there are going to be questions for Mr. Hess, but the news right now is that the girls have been found and are receiving medical care.

Two children, Keara and Sierra Hess, have gone missing in North Carolina. Keara is 12 years old and pregnant. Sierra is 11 years old, and neither have been seen since last Wednesday. An Amber Alert Issued For Pregnant 12 Year Old was authorized by authorities because Keara missed a doctors appointment and there is fear that she and the baby are in danger. The delay in the issuance of the Amber Alert appears to be that the girls were with their adoptive father, therefore they were not considered kidnapped.

Keara is 8-1/2 months pregnant and was scheduled to see a doctor who was to preform a procedure to protect the unborn baby. The physician has told authorities that the baby is in need of the procedure right away. The girls parents are separated, and Mr. Hess left a note which stated he was taking the girls to school last Wednesday. They never arrived at school.

Another senseless attack in Chicago. Yesterday four teens were arrested for violently beating and killing classmate at Fenger High School, Derrion Albert. Police are also on the look out for at least three more possible suspects according to sources. So far the four teens who have been arrested are Silvonus Shannon, Eric Carson, Eugene Riley and Eugene Bailey.

The fight and eventual death arose, apparently, after a disagreement between students who lived closed together at Altgeld Gardens. No one is quite sure what might have caused the disagreement or if this was just a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but what is certain is that this is just very senseless and very disturbing.

In Massachusetts a stolen hot dog, a lengthy criminal history, and using a weapon to steal the hot dog will land you in prison. The headline is never tells the whole story, and when I first heard that a man gets 18 an month sentence for stealing a hot dog I knew there had to be more to the story. I was right.

Antonio Judd plead guilty to larceny when he approached a man with a pellet gun and stole his hot dog. Apparently the identifying feature that police focused on were the mustard stains on Antonio Judd’s shirt. Judd stole his victims hot dog and then began eating it in front of the man. Talk about salt in your wound, first your hot dog got stolen then the guy eats it in front of you. That’s just uncalled for.

Four people have been arrested and jailed for allegedly running Europe’s largest dog-fighting syndicate. The four were charged with smuggling pit-bulls in from America illegally through a gang in Northern Ireland and using the dogs as part of their dog-fighting ring.

The dog-fighting syndicate was busted through BBC’s Panorama programme when one of the defendants befriended an undercover journalist in 2007.

Claire Parker, 44-years-old, is the alleged leader of the ring and the fights occurred at her home in Lincolnshire. She was convicted earlier this month and sentenced to 18 weeks in prison and is banned from keeping animals for 10 years. Her husband, John Parker, 45-years-old at the time, was previously arrested on drug charges and died in prison. She has three small children.

This is the kind of story that makes me think that people should have to take a class and obtain a license before they have children. An Oklahoma teen claimed to have been locked in a closet for over 4-1/2 years. The boy’s mother, 37 year old LaRhonda Marie McCall, and her boyfriend, 38 year old Steve Vern Hamilton, were arrested and charged with numerous counts of child abuse and child neglect. Police are reporting that the boy was malnourished, poorly clothed, dirty, and had numerous scars on his body.

The mugshot above is of Steve Hamilton. The abused boy escaped from the home and made his way to a National Guard facility where he approached a security guard and asked for help. After being taken to a hospital the boy was then taken into DHS custody.

Mitrice Richardson

Laura Cook is a Chicago, Illinois woman who has filed a lawsuit against the popular internet social networking site Facebook over a fake profile that was created about her son. It seems that four other teens created this fake profile and she claims it has caused her son and her family distress.

The mother is fighting back against the four teens that she says created this profile that included pictures of her son and included ‘defamatory statements’, sexual and racist information alleged to have been written by her son. The fake Facebook profile included her son’s cell phone number, racist comments about Barack Obama, sexual comments about girls he knows and indications that he is a homosexual. She described the content as ‘disturbing and vulgar’.

Need bling? You can get some at a bargain on eBay courtesy of the Leicestershire Constabulary and, of course, the crooks they confiscated it from. The British police are selling ‘bling’, as well as electronics and other goods on eBay on a trial basis at bargain basement prices.

Confiscated Bling for Sale on eBay

Britain’s Leicestershire Constabulary is the first law enforcement department to use eBay to unload goods that have been confiscated from criminals. That’s really pretty amazing considering it’s an excellent idea. I can’t help but wonder why no one has done it before.

The beating death of Derrion Albert, 16-years-old, an honor student at Chicago’s Fenger High School is still under investigation. However, a video of the fight is helping police find clues as to what happened and why.

Apparently, a gang fight broke out on Thursday in Roseland, in Southside Chicago, and Derrion was killed in the rumble. Initial reports were that he had refused to join a gang, resulting in his beating death. However, since the amateur video has been made available, it appears he just got caught up in the fighting and was beaten to death.
