Dayton Ohio man kills mom
Dayton Ohio man kills mom.
A man is arrested as a “person of interest” in the death of his 78-year-old mother who was found dead this morning inside her home.
Police were called around 9:10 a.m. to the house in the 4900 block of Hoover Avenue to investigate the death that may have been the result of an assault. Police would not say how the woman died, or how she may have been assaulted.
Police have not released the names of the woman nor her son, who is not formally charged in her death.
How tragic this is if this is true. Most likely this has something to do with drugs. Dayton Ohio has become a hotbed for heroin use and also for heroin overdoses. Time will tell what happened to the state Ohio woman who was murdered by her own son.

VIDEO: Boy caught breaking into garage–to hug a dog
PIERRE PART, LA (WCMH) – Hollie Mallett’s security cameras caught a repeat offender–a boy who kept coming into her garage to play with her dog.
The boy is seen pulling up on his bicycle, dashing into Mallett’s garage in Louisiana to hug her dog, and then bolting off.
“Anyone know who this sweet little boy is?” she wrote on Facebook. “Every now and then when he rides his bike he will quickly come and love on my dog or play fetch real quick, but always leaves quick like he doesn’t know if he should be here! I’d like to tell him he’s welcome to stay and play, she loves the attention!”
Friends of hers on Facebook recognized the boy, named Josh, and got his mother in on the conversation.
The boy’s mother, Ginger Breaux, said on Facebook that her son talked about the dog every day when he passed by.
“I’m torn with my heart melting that he adores dogs so much AND with feeling upset that his little booty shouldn’t be going on someone’s property without permission or without me knowing,” she wrote on her own page.
Breaux said her family’s dog passed away last year. The family hasn’t had the time to get a new puppy,
Austin Texas valedictorian graduation tweet goes viral
AUSTIN (KXAN) — The valedictorian of Crockett High School’s 2016 class has the spotlight on her after tweeting about being “undocumented” on the night of her graduation.
Mayte Lara Ibarra, who was also the senior class president, tweeted on June 3: “Valedictorian, 4.5GPA, full tuition paid for at UT, 13 cords/medals, nice legs, oh and I’m undocumented” along with several emojis including the Mexican flag.
Her tweet received nearly 20,000 likes and 9,000 retweets. According to the Daily Mail, after her tweet went viral and some people started sending negative responses, Ibarra tweeted, “I want all this attention from strangers to stop already.” Ibarra has since removed her Twitter account.
One of Ibarra’s classmates posted on Facebook supporting Ibarra.
During Crockett High’s graduation ceremony, Ibarra introduced the Pledge of Allegiance as well as the National Anthem. She came back up to the podium to give her valedictorian speech a short time later. During her speech, she mentioned the hard work her class put in and what their future might hold, but she didn’t mention anything about her immigration history. In closing, Ibarra said, “What is coming is better than what is gone. Congratulations class of 2016.”
Undocumented students are protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program (DACA). In 2012, the Secretary of Homeland Security announced that certain people who came to the U.S. as children and meet several guidelines may request consideration of deferred action for a period of two years. In Texas, House Bill 1403—which passed in 2001 and is also known as the DREAM Act—allows certain immigrants to receive in-state tuition if they meet certain requirements.
Last year, the DREAM Act came under scrutiny at the Capitol when some state lawmakers were pushing for the repeal of the law.
A spokesperson for the University of Texas at Austin says while they can’t say anything specifically about Ibarra, the university along with other Texas universities, “have for decades granted two-semester tuition waivers to valedictorians of Texas public high schools, without regard to their residency status. State law also does not distinguish between documented and undocumented graduates of Texas high schools in admissions and financial aid decisions. University policies reflect that law.”

Brock Turner’s father started account to help with legal costs
OAKWOOD, Ohio (WDTN) – With a population just over 9,000 people, Oakwood is small, tight-knit community with growing families and some of the best performing schools in the county.
But that community has been rocked to it’s core after learning one of their own–20-year-old Brock Turner–was found guilty of 3 felony sexual assault crimes. A judge sentenced Turner to six months in jail — sparking outrage by many on social media.
A Change.org petition to remove the judge from the bench has now gathered more than 700,000 signatures. We reached out the family and knocked on their doors, but there was no answer.
We we’re able to speak with one former neighbor in their old neighborhood — who didn’t want to go on camera — but did say she’s in support of the family. She says she knew the family before this incident and she supports the father’s decision to write to the judge.
In the meantime, a support page was set up on Facebook to help fund the family’s legal fee’s but that page has been taken down. We reached out to the woman who started the page but haven’t heard back.
However, we were able to confirm with Wright-Patt Credit Union that the Turner Family Support Fund does exist. According to the bank, the account is active and in the name of Brock Turner’s father Dan Turner.
We reached out to the family by phone, but have yet to hear from them.

Leopard escapes at Utah zoo; visitors take shelter
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Hundreds of Salt Lake City zoo visitors took shelter inside buildings Tuesday morning after a rare leopard escaped and fell asleep on a beam just above where visitors would have gathered to watch her.
A visitor spotted the 4-year-old female snoozing on the outdoor beam about two feet from the exhibit, Hogle Zoo spokeswoman Erica Hansen said. She told a zookeeper, who raised the alarm.
An emergency team tranquilized the Amur leopard, packed her into a crate and took her to a holding area.
No one was hurt, and the leopard named Zeya is expected to be fine after the tranquilizer wears off, said Nancy Carpenter, associate director of animal health at the zoo. The animal instinctually hung onto the beam after the tranquilizer dart struck, leaving visible claw marks on the wooden beam.
She eventually fell the final three feet to the ground and landed in a garden area between the visitor fence and her mesh enclosure.
Hansen said they don’t yet know how or when the leopard managed to get through the tall steel-grade mesh that surrounds the top and sides of her enclosure, but officials are investigating.
The reports of a wild animal on the loose caused quite a commotion on social media, and even spawned a parody Twitter account. The first tweet by the account, HogleZooLeopard, said “I’m finally free!”
But zoo visitors who were inside said the situation played out calmly and orderly.
Stephanie Gardner said she was looking at the giraffes at the zoo when a staff member told her and her family to take shelter in the gift shop with about 40 other people because of a situation. She said there was “no chaos or anything.”
Steve Jones said he and his family were at the monkey exhibit when zoo staff told them to get inside the bistro. They waited inside with several hundred people. Kids were playing, he said.
“We never did feel in danger,” Jones, 63, of South Jordan, Utah, said.
The leopard was reported missing at 9:30 a.m. It was captured, and people were allowed out of buildings about an hour later, Hansen said. It’s not clear exactly how long she was out, but zoo staff saw her inside the enclosure at about 7 a.m. The animal was spotted outside her enclosure shortly after the zoo opened to the public.
There are two Amur leopards at the zoo. Hansen said the other leopard is in a separate enclosure and did not escape.
The leopard that escaped is a petite, 60-pound animal that has only been at the zoo for a few years. She was brought in from a sanctuary in England to mate with the other Amur leopard, she said.
Amur leopards are considered critically endangered, according to the conservation organization World Wildlife Fund. There are only about 60 of them left in the wild.
Hansen said it is rare for animals to get loose at the zoo. In 2006, the zoo was evacuated when a gray wolf scaled the wall of her pen. The animal was shot with a tranquilizer dart and captured within zoo boundaries after about an hour. No one was hurt in that incident.
In 1999, three chimpanzees at the Salt Lake City Zoo escaped through an unlocked enclosure door and attacked and injured two zoo workers. Zoo employees fired shotguns instead of tranquilizer darts at two of the chimps, which were then euthanized. A third chimp was relocated to a Kansas zoo, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued a mild reprimand to the zoo for failing to keep the enclosure secured.
The zoo hasn’t had chimpanzees since that incident, Hansen said.
Last month, a zoo in Cincinnati shot and killed a gorilla when a young boy got into its exhibit and was dragged by the 400-pound animal.
While the leopard was quickly contained in Utah on Tuesday, if the animal had actively threatened people zoo officials would have used lethal force, Carpenter said.
The lines outside the Utah zoo grew long during the hour-long shut down, but the zoo has since re-opened. Many people returned to finish their outing after staff gave the all-clear signal.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture last inspected the zoo on May 3 and found no violations.

the really has not been any update from anybody from Pike County or the Atty. Gen.'s office regarding investigation of these deaths. Most likely these deaths are drug-related.
I know Ohio is urging the public to be more aware of overdoses that are happening as a result of heroin. The biggest idea is is why people use. Whether it's drugs or alcohol there's a reason that people turn to these drugs and alcohol for relief from the pain that they're in.

A local family says they’re heartbroken after keepsakes were stolen from the graves of their family members.
Naomi Conley is buried next to her son Dean at Newcomers’ Cemetery, 2115 Mechanicsburg Road in Springfield. Charles Conley visits the graves often.
Last week a ceramic angel, wind chimes and LED lights were missing from the sites, Charles Conley said. He filed a report with Springfield Police.
“They’re hurting us,” his daughter Melody Kucharski said. “They’re hurting the ones that lost the loved ones.”
The family can’t believe someone would steal from a grave, she said.
“We can’t replace those,” Kucharski said of the stolen property. “Those were sent to the funeral home.”
She and her siblings surround the graves with flowers, she said, because it’s what her mother would have wanted.
“She just loved flowers,” Kucharski said.
The family suspects items might have been taken from other graves too, said Bonnie Crummie, Kucharski’s sister and the Conleys daughter.

The last of several mobile homes where eight relatives were found shot to death in southern Ohio have been moved to a secure location.
The state Attorney General's Office says three Piketon-area mobile homes were moved several miles north on Thursday to an investigation command center in Waverly. The fourth was moved on Friday. Vehicles from the properties were also relocated.
Seven adults and a 16-year-old boy from the Rhoden family were found dead at the properties last month.
A coroner determined all but one had been shot repeatedly. Some also had bruising consistent with a 911 caller's description that two appeared to have been beaten
http://www.whio.com/ap/ap/ohio/last-of-several-mobile-homes-where-8-were-found-sh/nrNPs/I know Ohio is urging the public to be more aware of overdoses that are happening as a result of heroin. The biggest idea is is why people use. Whether it's drugs or alcohol there's a reason that people turn to these drugs and alcohol for relief from the pain that they're in.
Ohio is urging drug users' relatives and friends and other members of the public to know the signs of an overdose and obtain an antidote as part of a six-month awareness campaign launching Monday.
The effort targets 15 counties hit hard by overdose deaths related to fentanyl. The synthetic painkiller can be laced with heroin or disguised to look like less powerful painkillers, and its prescription form used to treat chronic pain is far more potent than heroin.
The Ohio Department of Health is encouraging drug users' loved ones to get the overdose antidote naloxone, which can be administered before emergency responders arrive. The state has taken other steps to expand naloxone availability, but this effort is aimed at people who might be shoulder to shoulder with those at risk of overdosing.
"I think we've got to get all hands on deck. We've got to do everything we can to help curb this epidemic," said Travis Bornstein, whose 23-year-old son died of a fentanyl overdose in 2014.
The resident of Uniontown in northeastern Ohio said naloxone isn't a fix-all but is a step in tackling a much larger problem. His family is trying to help others struggling.
Truly I think they need to go after the drug dealers that are actually supply in the drugs to people who are in a desperate situation. Some people don't know how to deal with their issues their problems. So maybe they need to double the fines in the jail time that a drug dealer may face a thorough caught dealing drugs. Heroin is an epidemic across the country and it's really bad here in the Dayton Ohio area.

Dayton Ohio News May 15, 2016
Here are the Sunday evening May 15, 2016 news headlines for the Dayton Ohio area.
Marcus Harper died after a high-speed police pursuit in which he had no part. Harper’s death sparked Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine to form a group to study such policies and suggest a statewide standard.
DeWine’s 12-member group announced via press release this month said 352 people, including one officer and 147 bystanders, were killed in law enforcement pursuits from 1982 to 2014.
“I’m not judging that one,” DeWine said of Harper’s death. “But here you had someone (innocent) who was killed, so it just got me back thinking about the question.
“We have in this state over 900 law enforcement agencies. There is no statewide policy. And it’s not just about how the pursuit is conducted, it’s also about whether you initiate the chase to begin with.”
Harper, 50, of Xenia, died March 17 when Kyndra J. Shackelford drove an allegedly stolen Chevrolet Impala that T-boned Harper’s 1993 Chevrolet Blazer at the intersection of Wagner Ford Road and Needmore Road in Harrison Twp. Huber Heights police pursued Shackelford up to 83 miles per hour.

The Dayton Ohio merger with Montgomery County has been withdrawn. I'm glad they made this decision because truly would've been a disaster for Dayton Ohio and the government County. Believe Dan Foley is the bully behind this proposal and hopefully next time ease up for reelection he will not be reelected.
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - A proposal to merge the southwest Ohio city of Dayton with surrounding Montgomery County has been withdrawn.
A nonprofit group called Dayton Together had suggested combining the city and county governments but decided that wasn't feasible after the city annexed 25 acres in Bath Township, in Greene County. The involvement of property in a different county would significantly complicate a merger.
The Dayton Daily News (http://bit.ly/1T4RbRT ) reports the city intentionally annexed the land to block a merger.
Proponents of the idea said they hoped to improve efficiency and make the region more competitive.
Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley had opposed merging and suggested it could threaten the city's ability to self-govern and disenfranchise voters. Critics also said the plan didn't address problems it sought to fix, such as job losses.

If you miss “Supersizing,” one soon-to-be-built McDonald’s mcd outpost may be able to fill that void.
What are your thoughts on the Missouri McDonald's that's proposing that they offer unlimited French fries. Truly this is probably very unhealthy for the young and old alike. Obesity in the United States is is really ranted and truly this is really a bad idea that this McDonald's is proposing.
A location in St. Joseph, Mo. was torn down last month and is being rebuilt with various new features, according to local paper the St. Joseph News-Press. Patrons can customize their burgers, chicken sandwiches, and desserts by ordering through a kiosk, and employees will bring their food to their seats, which will be a collection of couches and arm chairs.
But perhaps most striking, according to the News-Press, is that this McDonald’s will be the first to offer unlimited french fries.
