Skådespelaren Tony Todd, som bland annat spelade skräckfilmskaraktären ”Candyman” i den klassiska rysaren med samma namn, har dött vid 69 års ålder, rapporterar Sky News. ”Jag kommer sakna honom så mycket och jag hoppas att han hemsöker mig då och då”, skriver hans motspelare i filmen, Virginia Madsen.
De senaste veckorna har två politiska statyer mystiskt placerats i Washington DC. Förra veckan dök en bronsstaty upp av före detta talespersonen Nancy Pelosis skrivbord – toppad med bajsemojin. Pelosis skrivbord blev en av de mest kändaste bilderna från upproret den 6 januari. Det när en Donald Trump supporter, som stormade Kapitolium, fotograferades med fötterna på skrivbordet. I måndags dök en bronsstaty av en tikifackla upp på Freedom Plaza, bara ett kvarter från Vita huset. Statyn kallas ”Donald J. Trump uthålliga låga”. Den ska håna den före detta presidentens försvar av de högerextrema protesterna i Virginia 2017 där en kvinna dog. ”Påminner om hur arg jag var” Många turister och förbipasserande har samlats vid statyerna för att läsa konstnärens meddelanden och för att ta bilder. – Det påminner mig om hur arg jag var över den 6 januari och dödsfallet i Charlottesville på grund av högerextremisterna. Det förde tillbaka en del av den energin och ilskan som har försvunnit med tiden nu när vi går in i ett riktigt kontroversiellt och ett möjligen farligt val” säger Grace Denman, bosatt i Maryland, om statyerna till CNN. Men alla tycker inte som Denman. Enligt Paige Muller, som bor i Washington DC, ”anser många att det är olämpligt”. Statyerna planeras att ta bort innan den 5 november.
VIRGINIA. Från att dyka upp på enskilda skolbibliotek i USA införs bokförbud nu också på delstatsnivå. Ett pågående rättsfall kan påverka bibliotekens ställning i hela USA. Utgången av presidentvalet får betydelse även för tillgången på litteratur.
Nyligen erkände sig Alexander McCartney skyldig till brott på 185 åtalspunkter. Det rör sig bland annat om ett fall av dråp, 59 fall av utpressning, och ett 70-tal fall av försök att hetsa barn till sexuell aktivitet. På fredagen dömdes han till 20 års fängelse. ”Jag känner ingen skam eller ånger”, ska McCartney i samband med domen. Alexander McCartney, som är hemmahörande i Nordirland, har ägnat sig åt så kallad catfishing – en form av bedrägeri där personen som begår brottet utger sig för att vara någon annan. Fallet är ett av de mest omfattande inom catfishing i Storbritannien någonsin. Enligt BBC ska McCartney ha gett sig på runt 3 500 barn i över 30 olika länder. Barnen har varit mellan 10 och 16 år gamla. 12-årig flicka tog sitt liv Åtalspunkten om dråp gäller en 12-årig flicka från West Virginia i USA. 2018 fick Alexander McCartney kontakt med flickan på den sociala medieplattformen Snapchat. McCartney utgav sig för att vara ”Sarah”, och ska ha lyckats förmå flickan att skicka en bild på sig själv utan något på överkroppen. Efteråt avslöjade McCartney sin riktiga identitet och hotade med att skicka bilden till flickans pappa om hon inte skickade fler nakenbilder. När flickan skrev att hon inte ville skicka några bilder skrev McCartney att hon skulle ”torka sina tårar”. Han bad dessutom flickan att involvera sin nio år gamla syster för att göra sexuella handlingar framför en webbkamera. McCartney ska ha räknat ner från 20. Flickan vägrade och sköt istället sig själv. Polisen: Domen en varning Flickans syster hittade henne på golvet i föräldrarnas rum. Hon dog senare på sjukhus. Flickans pappa kunde inte leva med att hans dotter lyckats få tag i hans pistol. Ett och ett halvt år efter att hans dotter avslutade sitt liv tog han sitt eget. Under några års tid hade familjen svårt att förstå vad som fått flickan att ta sitt liv. Sedan hittade de chatten med McCartney ”Vi kan inte göra något för att få tillbaka henne. Men om vi kan hjälpa en annan familj att slippa gå igenom de vi gjort kan något gott komma ur det här”, säger flickans mor- och farföräldrar i ett utlåtande. Polisen har kallat McCartneys dom en varning för de som tror de kan gömma sig bakom fejkade konton online. – Du kommer bli tillfångatagen, och du kommer möta lagens fulla kraft när det händer, säger polischefen Eamonn Corrigan.
De flesta av våra stora gester syftar till att väcka reaktioner i vår omvärld. Men hur vore det om vi lät bli att göra ett så stort nummer av allt? Erika Vallin söker sig till Epiktetos, Virginia Woolf och J D Salinger för att finna en väg bortom den uppmärksamhetssökande lyckan.
När släkten frågade sa hon att föräldrarna var sjuka eller bortresta. Egentligen hade Virginia McCullough, 36, mördat dem – hon levde med kropparna i fyra år. Nu har hon dömts till livstids fängelse, rapporterar The Guardian.
Virginia McCullough, 36, döms till livstids fängelse för mordet på sina föräldrar i grevskapet Essex i Storbritannien, rapporterar Sky News. Medan grannarna fick höra historier om att föräldrar var bortresta eller var sjuka, byggde McCullough på en provisorisk gravplats åt sin pappa, som låg död i hemmet. Morden skedde någon gång i juni 2019. McCullough förgiftade sin pappa för att sedan knivhugga sin mamma till döds. Sedan gömde hon kropparna och fortsatte bo i familjens hus tillsammans med liken – i över fyra år. Enligt en åklagare levde McCullough sedan på sina föräldrars besparingar och tog stora lån i deras namn, samtidigt som hon fortsatte att ljuga för ekonomer, släkt och läkare om vart föräldrarna var, skriver BBC. Polisens kamera fångar kusliga erkännandet McCullough hade fyra systrar. Familjen har under dagen gett ett uttalande om sina föräldrars död, skriver BBC. ”Vår familj är förkrossade och hjärtkrossade över våra föräldrar, som togs ifrån oss på ett så hänsynslöst sätt”. Kropparna upptäcktes först hösten 2023, när poliser gjorde en husrannsakan och sedan grep McCullough. Polisens kroppskameror fångar det kusliga ögonblicket när McCullough inser att hon är ertappad. McCullough säger lugnt och samlat att hon tänker samarbeta och visar sedan poliserna var de kan hitta kropparna och ett blodigt vapen. – Min pappas kropp är där inne, säger hon. Poliserna frågar sedan om mamman. – Det är lite mer komplicerat, svarar McCullough, för att sedan förklara att kroppen ligger i en garderob på övervåningen. ”Le lite, ni fick fast skurken” McCullough säger också att hon visste att hon någon gång skulle ertappas och att det är rätt att hon avtjänar straffet. Sedan säger hon till poliserna: – Le lite, ni fick åtminstone fast skurken.
Tidigt på fredagsmorgonen, svensk tid, rapporterade amerikanska medier att orkanen minskat i styrka, från en kategori fyra, till en kategori två på den femgradiga orkanskalan. Däremot ska den fortfarande vara kraftfull med vindar på runt 50 meter per sekund. ”Det här är en extremt farlig och livshotande situation”, skriver nationella orkancentret i en uppdatering och uppmanar människor att söka skydd. Centret varnar för att stormens öga kan pressa upp vatten längs Floridas nordvästra kuster, med katastrofala stormfloder på upp till sex meter som följd. Vi kommer att vakna upp till en delstat där det med stor sannolikhet har skett dödsfall, sade Floridas guvernör Ron DeSantis vid en pressträff sent på torsdagen, lokal tid. Över en miljon hushåll och företag uppges stå utan el då orkanen drar in över delstaten. Minst tre dödsoffer En person rapporteras redan ha omkommit i Florida när en skylt föll över en bil. Två personer uppges ha dödats i vad man tror var en tornado som uppstått i Georgia. Ovädret väntas dra vidare norrut vilket fått flera delstater att utlysa nödläge, däribland Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina och Virginia.
Den 26 augusti besökte Trump och hans medarbetare en militärkyrkogården i Arlington i Virginia, efter att man bjudits dit av anhöriga till soldater som dödades när USA drog sig tillbaka från Afghanistan 2021. Det skriver TT. Innan besöket ska Trump och hans stab förvarnats om att politiskt kampanjande inte är tillåtet på kyrkogården. Men när man kom dit både fotade och filmade man. På en av bilderna står Trump leende och gör tummen upp, intill anhöriga till en dödad soldat. Anställd knuffades åt sidan När en anställd på kyrkogården påtalade att fotandet och filmandet var förbjudet, ska denne ha knuffats åt sidan. Det här bekräftas av USA:s militär, som i ett uttalande från i torsdags skriver att en kyrkogårdsanställd ”bryskt knuffats åt sidan” efter att ha bett Trumps medarbetare om att sluta filma. Men Trumpkampanjen påstår att man fått ett specialtillstånd och förnekar anklagelserna. Man kallar den anställde som sa till för en ”föraktlig” individ med psykiska problem. Militären däremot skriver att personen ”agerat professionellt” och kallar händelsen för ”olycklig”. ”Vanhelgade helig mark” Demokraternas presidentkandidat Kamala Harris har reagerat starkt över bilderna. I ett inlägg på X skriver hon: ”Låt mig vara tydlig: den förre presidenten vanhelgade helig mark i syfte att plocka politiska poäng.” Hon fortsätter: ”Om det finns en sak som vi amerikaner alla kan enas om så är det att våra veteraner, tjänstgörande soldater och deras familjer ska hedras, aldrig nedvärderas, och i alla lägen behandlas med den största respekt och tacksamhet.”

What initially looks like a standard murder/suicide, turns into a crazy plot, involving some wild staging, and very incriminating phone calls. The killer claims innocence until the very end, but the evidence was just too strong!Along the way, we find out that good bands play longer than 20 minute sets, that even rich people apparently have problems, and that even when the explanation seems obvious, there may be more layers to that onion!Hosted by James Pietragallo and Jimmie WhismanNew episodes every Thursday!Donate at: patreon.com/crimeinsports or go to paypal.com and use our email: crimeinsports@gmail.comGo to shutupandgivememurder.com for all things Small Town Murder & Crime In Sports!Follow us on...twitter.com/@murdersmallfacebook.com/smalltownpodinstagram.com/smalltownmurderAlso, check out James & Jimmie's other show, Crime In Sports!

John writes "This happened on the opening day of rifle season 1998 in the southwestern mountains of Virginia. Now to give a back drop to the property we used to hunt so you can get an idea. The parcel of land backed up to the New River, less than a mile above it. When I say above, you could walk to the river if not for the 100 foot sheer rock cliffs, caves and caverns that fall off to the riverbank. We had built a tree stand in an oak tree about 75-100 yards down in a holler. This stand was a 2-sided stand with a roof over top. The front side of the tree where we built the ladder was about 20-25 feet off the ground, whereas the backside was probably 60-70 feet above the kill zone. It was strategically placed this way because of the kill zone. The zone I mention is what you would call a super highway for deer. 3 different points coming together in an opening with an unobstructed view and vantage point. The leaves had fallen, so that Sunday afternoon I had taken a rake and swept them off the path to the stand. I always like to get into the stand by 530ish so if by chance I did spook a a buck it could have a chance to settle down. I got to the stand about 20 minutes late cause of forgetting my knife. I had walked this trail many times over the years so no need for a flashlight. Climbed up in full ghillie suit, got settled and waited. 20 minutes or so later, start hearing something walking my way. I could tell that it was on 4 feet, so I was expecting a deer at least. The sun had just started to come up, so I was just waiting on it to come to the bait pile that was set up about 30 yards from me. In the Laurel thicket im seeing movement and notice its too dark to be a deer. Well, I’m sitting there thinking to myself that’s got to be a bear, because deer do not make that much noise. When this thing/creature comes into my view the first thing I think is what the hell is a gorilla doing in the mountains of Virginia. It/she (breast In full view) makes its way to the bait pile, looks around to the thicket and here comes a smaller one. When I say smaller, I mean it looked like Cha-ka off the land of the lost episodes on tv only it was black and not copper. The adult stands up on all fours, starts looking around the forest. She grunted towards the small one and it instantly climbed on her back. She is scanning the forest, I don’t know if she scented me or just knew something was off. I was sitting completely still, not sure I was even breathing. She glanced up to the stand I was in and with a scowl on her face stared for a few seconds. She dropped back down on all fours, with the little one still on her back and let out what I can only describe as part scream part growl. 2 seconds later I hear a scream to the north from what I assume was another one, but this scream was much more intense, louder and more deeper. She turned and walked off down the trail. I sat there for at least an hour, maybe more without moving, barely breathing. After that time, I slowed lowered my rifle, which was a .270 ruger that I knew would have only pissed her off. Only way I think I could have done damage was a head shot, but the way I was shaking there’s no way I could have hit her. Besides I was worried about the other scream/howl to the north. I backed out up the trail turning complete circles to make sure I wasn’t being flanked. Once I got to the clearing, which was probably 50 yards wide, I sprinted like never before. Climbed to the fence, got on my knees to make sure I wasn’t followed. I ran to my truck, got in and left. The bigger one, I’m guessing the mom was at least 7 feet tall and probably had to weigh at least 600-700 lbs. Those guesstimates could be wrong because at the angle I was at and the shadows. The baby as I said looked just like Cha-Ka from the tv show Land of the Lost. It was on all fours the entire time so I could get a gauge on the size. I’d say even at the same time it was at least 100-150 lbs. When on all fours, they had a gait and body structure that resembled a hyena. The momma creature reminded me of a gorilla in the face. Sunken in eyes, protruding brow and flat nose. The face wasn’t hair covered. The body was completely covered in hair that seemed matted with mud. Hard to tell again with the shadows, but could tell it was somewhat long and unkempt. The skin on the face, hands and soles of the feet were a greyish color. I could see the feet when she turned and walked away. I didn’t notice any ears, but did notice that when she screamed that it looked like she had canines. I know you like to ask about what witnesses knew about the subject, so I’ll tell you. I thought ppl were crazy when talking about it. I laughed at a buddy once when he said he had seen one. I’ll never do that ever again. It’s been 25 years to the month and I have never spoken a word about this to anyone. I had seen the Patterson/Gimlin film and some things in the book but waved it off as delusional people."

Episode 4 in our series on the great essays is about Virginia Woolf’s masterpiece ‘A Room of One’s Own’ (1929). David discusses how an essay on the conditions for women writing fiction ends up being about so much else besides: anger, power, sex, modernity, independence and transcendence. And how, despite all that, it still manages to be as fresh and funny as anything written since.Read more on Virginia Woolf in the LRB:Jacqueline Rose on Woolf and madness‘It is, one might say, a central paradox of modern family life that its members are required to mould themselves in each other’s image and yet to know, as separate individuals or egos, exactly who they are.’Gillian Beer on Woolf and reality‘The “real world” for Virginia Woolf was not solely the liberal humanist world of personal and social relationships: it was the hauntingly difficult world of Einsteinian physics and Wittgenstein’s private languages.’Rosemary Hill on Woolf and domesticity‘Woolf, who had once found it humiliating to do her own shopping, spent the last morning of her life dusting with Louie, before she put her duster down and went to drown herself.’John Bayley on Woolf and writing‘For Virginia Woolf wish-fulfilment was in words themselves, that protected her from herself and from society.’Listen to David’s History of Ideas episode about Max Weber’s ‘The Profession and Vocation of Politics’.

Back in the 20’s Roscoe Arbuckle, known as “Fatty” in his movies, was one of the most beloved actors.

According to a case file obtained from the National UFO Reporting Center, a Virginia man in 2012 spotted a shape-shifting UFO hovering near his home. At first glance, the object had the tail section and top rotor blades of a helicopter, but those aspects of the craft disappeared to reveal that it was a cylinder-shaped craft that made no sound. Also, Axios reports that members of the U.S. House UFO Caucus will soon be briefed about UAP by the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community.

Now that money is about to expire, and low-income parents across Virginia are trying to figure out what happens next. Governor Youngkin says the General Assembly need to step in and bridge the gap. That's why he's proposing more than $400 million to make sure low-income families are able to keep access to childcare. He also wants to invest $25 million to build capacity in childcare deserts.If the General Assembly creates a new authority that would own a proposed sports arena in Alexandria, the land in Potomac Yard where the arena would be built would be taken off the tax rolls. Thats’ a huge tax break for sports franchises that stand to make a lot of money on the deal--but one Pod Virginia guest says the deal isn't nearly as good for the Virginia taxpayer.TRIVIA: Which two Democrats are now seated on the other side of the aisle?At the Watercooler:- Ex-Capitol police officer Harry Dunn announces a run for Maryland's 3rd District- Pod Virginia launches its officia Discord for listeners who want to support the show Learn more at http://linktr.ee/JacklegMedia
