Would you keep your dead mother to make money??
WalletPop.com states that a woman in Florida faces upto 15 years in jail after hiding her mother's dead body in her home. According to a Reuters story, Penelope Sharon Jordan, hid her mother's deceased body on a bed, in a separate bedroom in her home for six years. Timmie Jordan died in 2003, and her daughter Penelope had been collecting her mother's pensions for all these years. She collected $61,415 in U.S. Social Security and $176,461 in military pension.

Apparently neighbors had complained to the police on a nuisance cat. This had led the police to this chilling discovery in late March; she faces at 15 years in jail!!! Penelope had told police that her mother had died of old age, and the autospy did result that. I find this incredibly disturbing! It's not fair that her mother wasn't given a proper buriel. Also, I wondered if she had any other family, because after 6 years, I believe you would notice if somone isn't around. Goodness, that this discovery was made, because now Ms. Jordan could finally be at peace. As for her sick daughter...NEVER MESS WITH THE GOVERNMENT!!!

Manic!
So, do you agree with this? This does happen today, when crimes are committed by those who are not mentally unstable. Many years ago in Texas, a mother drowned her five children because she said the “voices told her to do so”. Should people like this be convicted? Or are they really not at fault? It’s so hard to actually put yourself in these shoes and make this decision. I guess it depends on the all the evidence that can lead to a conclusion. Now, going back to the episode, how do these boys get justice? Also, in reality, when a crime like this happens, how does anyone get justice? (image found here)

Not Guilty!!
Theresa talks about the great stories in the celebrity world in her "Are Celebrities Human?" blogs. One of the articles was "Should he be punished? NO!" had to do with the infamous Chris Brown hitting superstar girlfriend Rihanna. The blog recaps the incident, stating that Chris Brown allegedly hit assaulted Rihanna leaving her bruised all over her face. Now according to USATODAY, the singer pleads "NOT GUILTY"! He pleads this to the charges of bodily injury and criminal threats. He entered his plea at a Los Angeles court room along side his lawyer and mother who say in the front bench with red eyes.(image found on flickr)
A preliminary hearing is to be set on April 29th, which is the nest court date for Brown. The Associated Press states that if brown is convicted, he could face probation or up to five years in prison. Singer Rihanna is cooperating and is hoping everything is done quickly. She was spotted vacationing in Hawaii, while Chris Brown was seen touring college campuses with his family. Why?? I don't know, seemed odd to me as well. According to Theresa's blog, many are saying that Chris Brown is the victim because Rihanna is lying. Oh c'mon! Be serious! If some of you didn't see the pictures, I suggest you do, because I highly doubt that the bruises just appeared or she "accidentally" fell. Domestic abuse is a serious crime, and just because you are a celebrity or a wealthy person, does not mean they should not be charged the same. It's a shame that people can say that money can't by love or happiness; but can allow for money to buy justice!

If you look for love on the net, let your heart get involved, but not your wallet!!
Are you lonely? Are you sad and tired of staying at home on a Saturday night? Do you need to be held and loved? You are probably tired of going out on pointless dates that will never go anywhere! So, instead of asking your friend for that blind date, maybe you will go ahead and do some blind date-searching of your own. So what is your result? Internet romance right ….WRONG!!!!!
Like Paige stated in her blog on “The Second Life” websites like eharmony.com and Match.com have been becoming very popular during the last few years because so many “lonely” people are going on these sites for answers to their loneliness and seeking love. Although you may visit these sites and finally have someone steal your heart, they can also be stealing your money.
According to CNN, Julia Abrantes from
Patrich Giocolo runs RomanceScams.org; she claims that Julia Abrante isn’t alone in the case of
romance scams, because she too has been a victim. Giocolo tells the story of how she went on a dating site and met a man she was getting along with beautifully. They began speaking on the phone and he told her he had to fly to
gotten into an accident and asked for more money. By this point Giocolo had gotten a funny feeling in her stomach and while researching, she literally stumbled on a website on romance scammers. Some of these sites show pictures of past scammers, and Giocolo saw hers. He heart sank and she was devastated, everything had been a complete lie!!! All that money down the drain, and she was left with nothing. No love and a broken heart, including a hole in her pocket.
These websites give you great tips on noticing a scammer and a database where you can locate them. All these women including Julia Abrantes from
