Man Casually Sitting on Porch of House Riddled with 20 Bullets by Drug Dealers (Video)


VIDEO BELOW


24 year old guy was sitting on a porch in front of a house in Ancuri district, in the greater metropolitan region of Fortaleza, state of Ceará, Brazil, when he was approached by a trio of young drug dealers. The guy was just chilling, sitting in the shade shirtless and wearing flip flops, casually chatting with his friend with crutches who was sitting next to him. Those were the last moments of his life.
When the three traffickers showed up – two men and one woman – he told them he was just a “worker”, and that he did nothing illegal for a living. Still, to send a message that this was their turf, the young dealers pulled out a gun and literally riddled him with bullets.
Verbally encouraged by the woman who was recording the video to pop more shots into him, one of the three, who wasn’t even trying to hide his face from the camera, shot the man 15 times. His friend, further encouraged by the woman to “unload the gun into his head” then took over the gun and popped 5 more rounds to the collapsed victim.
After he was shot 20 times, the woman still lamented that she was not ready to see the end of it and would like for the victim to be shot some more.
The victim’s name was Fábio Rodrigues da Silva (yup, it’s that da Silva curse again). Since the shooters wanted the video to be seen so others understand their claim to this turf and that they mean business, police got the clear view of both shooters and identified them as Samuel Lourenco, alias Samuca, and Jorge Marciel. From there it was easy to identify the woman whom they learned was one Aridna Lima.

Huge Cyber Heist: Hacking Ring Steals $1 Billion From Banks Around The World


NEW YORK (Associated Press) — A hacking ring has stolen up to $1 billion from banks around the world in what would be one of the biggest banking breaches known, a cybersecurity firm says in a report scheduled to be delivered Monday.
The hackers have been active since at least the end of 2013 and infiltrated more than 100 banks in 30 countries, according to Russian security company Kaspersky Lab.



After gaining access to banks' computers through phishing schemes and other methods, they lurk for months to learn the banks' systems, taking screen shots and even video of employees using their computers, the company says.
Once the hackers become familiar with the banks' operations, they use that knowledge to steal money without raising suspicions, programming ATMs to dispense money at specific times or setting up fake accounts and transferring money into them, according to Kaspersky. The report is set to be presented Monday at a security conference in Cancun, Mexico. It was first reported by The New York Times.



The hackers seem to limit their theft to about $10 million before moving on to another bank, part of the reason why the fraud was not detected earlier, Kaspersky principal security researcher Vicente Diaz said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.
The attacks are unusual because they target the banks themselves rather than customers and their account information, Diaz said.
The goal seems to be financial gain rather than espionage, he said.



"In this case they are not interested in information. They're only interested in the money," he said. "They're flexible and quite aggressive and use any tool they find useful for doing whatever they want to do."
Most of the targets have been in Russia, the U.S., Germany, China and Ukraine, although the attackers may be expanding throughout Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Europe, Kaspersky says. In one case, a bank lost $7.3 million through ATM fraud. In another case, a financial institution lost $10 million by the attackers exploiting itsonline banking platform.
Kaspersky did not identify the banks and is still working with law-enforcement agencies to investigate the attacks, which the company says are ongoing.
The Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center, a nonprofit that alerts banks about hacking activity, said in a statement that its members received a briefing about the report in January.

"We cannot comment on individual actions our members have taken, but on balance we believe our members are taking appropriate actions to prevent and detect these kinds of attacks and minimize any effects on their customers," the organization said in a statement. "The report that Russian banks were the primary victims of these attacks may be a significant change in targeting strategy by Russian-speaking cybercriminals."
The White House is putting an increasing focus on cybersecurity in the wake of numerous data breaches of companies ranging from mass retailers like Target and Home Depot to Sony Pictures Entertainment and health insurer Anthem.



The administration wants Congress to replace the existing patchwork of state laws with a national standard giving companies 30 days to notify consumers if their personal information has been compromised.

Former Detective Greg Kading Clarifies His Shocking Allegations Regarding The Murder Of Tupac Shakur


By Paul Arnold

Exclusive: The cop-turned-author answers every question created by his shocking LA Weekly profile in regards to his investigation into the murder of Tupac Shakur.
With the steady stream of increasingly shocking new developments surrounding the still unsolved murders of Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G. over the last few months, one might mistakenly think their current calendar is emblazoned with the year 1997 instead of 2011.
After Dexter Isaac confessed to AllHipHop.com his involvement in the 1994 Quad Studios attack on Tupac, (which planted the seeds of the infamous East vs. West beef), and Clayton Hill confessed to HipHopDX.com his role in allegedly aiding Amir Muhammad after the murder of The Notorious B.I.G., it didn’t seem like this year could get any more retro regarding the ‘Pac and Biggie saga. But it was déjà vu all over again on Monday (October 3rd), when the LA Weeklypublished their piece on the revelations made to them by former Los Angeles Police Detective Greg Kading (and subsequently published in Kading’s just-released book, Murder Rap) that Marion “Suge” Knight gave one of his child’s mother’s $13,000 to contract a Wardell “Poochie” Fouse to murder Biggie Smalls, and that Sean “Diddy” Combs commissioned Duane Keith “Keffe D” Davis to take out Tupac Shakur, along with Suge Knight, for the much more impressive sum of one million dollars.      
HipHopDX spoke with Mr. Kading the day after the LA Weekly’s explosive entry into this year’s media frenzy over the decade-and-a-half old investigations into the interwoven murders of two of Hip Hop’s most revered talents. In the first half of DX’s Q&A with Kading published on Wednesday (October 5th), one of the successors to Russell Poole in helming the Notorious B.I.G. murder investigation shared his reasoning for repudiating Poole’s long-respected theory that rogue cops affiliated with Marion "Suge" Knight colluded with Knight and an associate, Amir Muhammad, to murder Biggie Smalls. And now in the second half of his eye-popping conversation with DX, Kading discusses his investigation into Tupac’s murder, in which he netted a stunning (and yet still questionable) confession from the aforementioned Keffe D to that crime once Keffe was allegedly on the ropes for running a drug ring. The man who claims to have finally solved the murders of The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac explained why he believes Keffe D, his nephew Orlando Anderson and two fellow Crips killed ‘Pac at the request of Diddy, and why he believes you should believe his book’s controversial claims.

Detective Greg Kading Names Whom He Believed Killed Tupac Shakur 

HipHopDX: Can you clarify how you – as an L.A.P.D. detective – came to be investigating the Tupac murder case, which I understood to be the jurisdiction of Las Vegas Metro Police?
Greg Kading: What ended up happening during our investigation of [Notorious B.I.G’s] homicide – we were taking a very broad approach to it, we were gonna try to address all the different theories: whether it was Puffy Combs, whether it was the Southside Crips, whether it was the Nation Of Islam, whether it was the Bloods as retaliation [for Tupac’s murder]. We were looking at it from every different angle. … We’re thinking, Okay, maybe it was Puff behind Biggie’s murder, and if so it could’ve been the Southside Crips. There was this rumor going around that it was them because they never got paid for the [Tupac] murder. So there were all these theories going around.   
Well, once we got Keffe D’s back up against the wall and he explained to us that him and his nephew, [Orlando Anderson], and the rest of that little Crip entourage committed the murder of Tupac out in Las Vegas, and then he explains that the conspiracy to commit the murder of Tupac had developed in Los Angeles during his conversations with Puffy Combs, we realized now that we had some legitimate ownership of [the Tupac case as well]. Even though the murder took place in Las Vegas, and technically it was their investigation, since the conspiracy to murder happened in our jurisdiction it gave us a legitimate cause to investigate it.   
Since now we had the star witness, [Keffe D], and now we needed to protect him in order to further the investigation to take it up to where it’s tied to the other conspirators, we needed to really protect that aspect of the case. Because if it got out [that], “Hey, Keffe D’s cooperating,” or anything like that, well you can imagine that would’ve interfered with the ongoing investigation.   
DX: Speaking of that, was Keffe D charged federally for running that nationwide PCP ring? ‘Cause I was just searching in the PACER case locator, and the last criminal case involving a Duane Keith Davis was closed back in 1998.
Greg Kading: Yep. And the answer’s no.
DX: Okay, he was never charged federally?
Greg Kading: Nope.
DX: Was he charged by the state?
Greg Kading: Nope.  
DX: Okay … so what happened to Keffe D?
Greg Kading: Well, you might have to ask the U.S. Attorney’s Office why they never charged him. I can’t answer that.
DX: Do you know if his snitching on Puff influenced that decision?
Greg Kading: It shouldn’t have.
DX: Did you make any promises to him of a reduced sentence in exchange for those statements regarding Puff?
Greg Kading: No. The only arrangement we had is what’s known as a proffer agreement, where he sits down and agrees to cooperate with us. We can’t use his own statements against him. That’s the arrangement. So, it doesn’t mean that he’s not gonna get charged in any cases that he talks about, all it means is that we won’t use his personal incriminating statements against himself. So that’s what he’s kind of guaranteed. But that comes with a caveat of its own: we will only not use his own words against him as long as anything else he tells us regarding that case or any other case is never proven to be untrue. In other words, if he lies, and we can prove he’s lied about anything, we then can use his confessions against himself. That’s the strongest motivation right there for him to be completely honest, regarding everything.    
DX: I’m just a little mystified that … no one ever charged him with anything. They just let him walk.
Greg Kading: Well … yep. I don’t wanna speculate too much on that. But yeah, I would agree with you, I don’t understand it myself.  
I think things would of changed and worked out drastically different had the L.A.P.D. not taken its lead investigator off the case, who had accomplished all of this. I’m not trying to pat myself on the back; I’m just being very practical about this. I was assigned to the case, and I got something accomplished that nobody had ever gotten accomplished and that was to get the people that participated in these murders to confess. And then right when you’re positioned to take those confessions and exploit them to get the other conspirators, you’re taken off the task force and then both of the cases just die in their tracks and nothing else is done.

Detective Kading's Theory On Why Tupac Shakur's Murder Was Never Solved

DX: What supporting evidence did you gather to confirm that Keffe D’s statements regarding Tupac’s murder were in fact truthful?
Greg Kading: Well, we read a couple other reports, both F.B.I. and – Well, first of all, I mean, obviously, you’ve got this extremely strong circumstantial case, just based on the fact that his nephew had gotten his ass kicked in the lobby [of the MGM Grand], and these are some legitimate gangsters. And so, it’s a pretty reasonable conclusion to draw that Orlando Anderson – Keffe D’s nephew – would’ve had the motivation to shoot Tupac.
So, that’s one thing that kind of supports Keffe D’s confession. The other thing is he mentions getting the guns from this guy named Zip. And we have other statements of individuals in Las Vegas that say that they were with Zip, and corroborate the fact that these guys had a very excited reaction to the Orlando Anderson beat-down. And one of ‘em mentions like, “Oh, man, we got artillery out here!,” in response to the fact that now they have to go retaliate. One of the guys in that group with Zip says, “Man, they don’t know who they’re fuckin’ with. We got artillery out here!”     
DX: And just to clarify once and forever, this group of Crips doesn’t go and meet with Biggie Smalls in a hotel room like Chuck Philips claimed and are handed a gun directly by Biggie?
Greg Kading: Absolutely not. There’s no evidence whatsoever that Biggie was there. There’s no evidence whatsoever in our entire investigation that Biggie knew anything about the conspiracy to murder Tupac. I think Biggie was really misaligned by that information, which was baseless.
DX: And, will you release to the public the recordings you have of your interview with Keffe D?
Greg Kading: No, that has to be done through the proper channels. That has to go through the L.A.P.D.  
DX: That segues into my next question: Can’t you be prosecuted for stealing those interview tapes?
Greg Kading: Well, no. And that’s kind of loaded language right there, because I didn’t steal anything. As an investigator, I’m privy to keep material of everything I do in my own investigation. I can’t keep any evidence, which is the big difference. Everything that I have copies of, the originals are on file in the L.A.P.D.’s case file. I simply have copies of my own investigative work.
There’s nothing illegal about that. They may claim that that’s inappropriate, but there’s no precedent to say it’s inappropriate. Think about any true-crime novel that’s ever been written is based on copies of police documents. So, please, that word steal is a very loaded word.
DX: Well, I appreciate you clarifying that, I wasn’t sure of the circumstances, so … Going back to the actual shooting of Tupac, can you list for me everybody you believe was in that white Cadillac?
Greg Kading: Yeah, there’s a guy named Terrence Brown. He went by the Crip gang moniker of “Bubble Up.” There was a guy named Deandre Smith. He just went by the name of “Dre.” There was Orlando “Baby Lane” Anderson. And of course, Duane “Keffe D” Davis.  
DX: So how were you able to confirm that those were the people in that Cadillac? Just based off of Keffe D’s testimony?
Greg Kading: Based off of Keffe D’s testimony, as far as the number. Keffe says, “There’s four of us.” And the witnesses in Tupac’s entourage – I think it was Frank Alexander, I’m not sure, mentions the carload with two front seat and two backseat occupants.  
DX: And, did your research confirm the previously reported overview of that shooting: that Orlando Anderson fired a .40 caliber Glock thirteen times at Suge’s BMW, striking Tupac three times and grazing Suge once?
Greg Kading: That’s correct.
DX: Can you clarify – there have been conflicting reports about whether Suge actually was struck, or he was grazed, were you able to [clarify that]?
Greg Kading: No, I was never able to verify that. Of course, Suge likes to claim that he still has a bullet in his head. But I think that’s just bravado, gangster-boasting. We believe that it was a superficial wound caused either by like a graze or by some lead or glass fragments. When bullets hit things you never know what’s gonna start flying. And it could’ve been just the jacketing of the bullet, it could’ve been a piece of metal from the door, it could’ve been some glass. So, don’t know what hit him, all I know is that it was superficial.
DX: So the obvious follow-up then is that Suge was a large man … he was twice the size of Tupac, did you have any sort of eyewitnesses or anybody that claimed Suge basically used Tupac as a human shield?
Greg Kading: Um … I know that’s out there. There’s that speculation. I truly don’t. I think that Tupac in the heat of that moment - when some guys are pulling up next to you [and] all of the sudden you see a gun come out the window, you are gonna instinctively begin to flex away from that. You’re gonna instinctively turn away from that and begin to try to move and protect yourself away from that. And I think that’s what the people were seeing, was him trying to get out of the immediate, point-blank range line of fire. And so I really think that’s what happened. And, more likely than not – and this is speculation – is that Tupac’s movements, and the way he reacted, did create a human shield and very likely protected Suge, although it was all unintentional.

Detective Kading Ties Orlando Anderson To Tupac Shakur's Murder

DX: Now the reason I had you clarify the number of shots, and just how all that went down, is because if this was indeed a hired hit they did it awful sloppily. I’m sure there were much cleaner ways to do this. Did Keffe explain why they did it this way?
Greg Kading: Yeah, it was in the heat of [the aftermath of] the beating. There was no intention whatsoever to go out to Las Vegas to carry out the murder plot. They went out there strictly to party and to watch the [Mike Tyson] fight. The beat-down of Orlando in the MGM, all that did was kick into gear something that had already been planned [but] that wasn’t supposed to take place then. Keffe D says they wanted to do it back in L.A.  
DX: Did he explain what his ideal scenario was, if they had an actual plan?
Greg Kading: No, he didn’t. I doubt that he even had one. I mean, these are just gangsters, man. These aren’t professional hit-men. They’re not guys that put a lot of thought into this stuff. I mean, Orlando Anderson was known for shooting all over his neighborhood. It’s pretty random during these gang shootings and gang drive-bys. It’s definitely not The Bourne Ultimatum-type of stuff.  
DX: And per your investigation, Puff refused to pay Keffe for the hit because Suge lived?
Greg Kading: No, we don’t have that information, at all. I don’t know that. That’s speculation. There’s a rumor out there like that, but we don’t know that. All we know is that Keffe D claims he never received any of the money. And, he asked Zip to go get the money, and then Keffe D was shortly [thereafter] arrested on that federal case that you mentioned earlier, which took him out of the picture for a minute. And so, once he was taken out of the picture, the debt, so to speak, just kind of got shelved. However, as you’ll read in the book, Keffe D heard from another source that he felt was reliable that half the money had been paid from Puffy to Zip, but Zip never delivered. The courier took off with the pizza.  
DX: And this may just be speculation on your part, but why didn’t Keffe kill Puff for not paying him the million dollars he agreed to?
Greg Kading: Well, he went to prison, so it’s kinda hard to pull that off from – well, I shouldn’t say that, because obviously [Suge] Knight did that. Um … I don’t know. I asked Keffe after he got out of prison if he had any contact [with Puff]. “No, I haven’t.” Keffe D just jumped right back up into his big drug distribution ring and was making money.
DX: Now, before Keffe went to prison for those ’98 charges, it’s been previously reported that both Keffe and Orlando Anderson were present at the Petersen Automotive Museum the night Biggie was murdered. Did you investigate the possibility that Keffe killed Biggie that night as retribution for being stiffed on payment for Tupac’s murder?
Greg Kading: Yeah, we did. We looked into that, and we didn’t find that to be a plausible theory. Not only after talking to Keffe D and having him deny it – It didn’t really pan out.
When you think of it in a plausible or common sense [way] – knowing that they had just killed Tupac, to come there and publicly go up and make a contact with Puffy and Biggie in front of all those people and then go outside and lay in wait in your own black [Chevrolet] Impala, that is just really not plausible.
DX: But you said these guys do non-plausible things all the time?
Greg Kading: Yeah, well, I mean as far as like when they do their heat-of-the-moment type stuff, or their drive-bys, they’re not coordinated and planned. And they don’t have this orchestrated thing.
[So] to think that Keffe D is gonna walk into the Petersen Automotive Museum, go up – and he actually walks up and asks … first he encounters Lil’ Cease, and then Puffy kinda waves him through, and Puffy and Biggie are sitting there together and [Keffe is] like, “Yo, man, y’all need some security here? There’s some Blood muthafuckas here.” And they’re like, “Nah, we’re cool, we’re good.” So then, Keffe D just kinda leaves it alone. And in [2008] he tells us though, he’s like, “Man, I knew something was wrong when I got there. I saw them Death Row [Records] people there.” And of course, it’s no stretch of the imagination that they’re gonna wanna retaliate for what happened to Tupac. And so he says he was on alert, thinking something was gonna go down.
But I just, I really – Because he came clean in the one [murder], it gives him a little bit of credibility in his denial of the other. And then when you compound it out with the fact that now we have [“Theresa Swann”] confessing to that one, and telling us what actually happened, all those collective considerations allow us to kind of draw the conclusions we have.
DX: I just wanna wrap up this interview by giving you an opportunity to tell what I’m sure will be at least a partially skeptical audience here at HipHopDX why they should feel confident enough in the claims you make in your book to purchase Murder Rap to read the full details for themselves?
Greg Kading: I’m telling this story because I believe it to be the truth. I believe it to be the best evidence out there right now. And, you know, I walked away from over a million dollars of earning potential with my career at the L.A.P.D. I left short. And I sacrificed a lot because I knew the story wasn’t gonna get told. This is not about capitalizing for me. This is a self-published book. I dumped [$30,000] into this project just to get here myself, and gave up on a large earning potential with the police department. This was an ethical conviction I had to do this, I believe it was the right thing, and if people can see that I’m coming at this from a very honest approach, it’ll give the book the credibility for people to believe it.

Criminal Investigation Into Bobbi Kristina Brown's Injuries Started Centering On BF Nick Gordan (Video)


Video Below

Police have opened a criminal investigation regarding foul play involved in the Bobbi Kristina Brown tragedy. Bobbi has been in a medically induced coma since being found face down and unresponsive in the bathtub of her Roswell, Georgia home on Saturday, January 31.

TMZ reports that cops are eyeing Bobbi's boyfriend Nick Gordon as they look into injuries found on the 21-year old daughter of Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston.



The initial story that came out is that Gordon discovered Bobbi along with her friend Max Lomas when they came to the home after Gordon became concerned following a conversation with Bobbi. The couple was living apart at the time of the incident.





Lomas is now telling a different story that includes explosive claims.




Max Lomas (left) claims he is the one who discovered Bobbi Kristina in her bathtub. According to Lomas, he went to Bobbi's house at 9 a.m. on the morning in question. He hung out with Gordon. When asked where Bobbi was Gordon told him she was in the bedroom.

At some point Nick wandered away. At 10 a. m. a cable guy showed up. Max let him inside the home. The worker told him he needed access to the bedroom. Lomas didn't know where Gordon was so he took the cable guy to the bedroom and found Bobbi in the bathtub.




He screamed for Nick who came in and administered CPR. Lomas claims that Gordon cleaned up blood stains prior to police arriving.

Gordon reportedly has a history of violence involving Bobbi.

NYPD Cop Who Killed Eric Garner Had History of Sexually Abusing Black Men


Surprise, surprise (*insert sarcasm here!) The cop who the grand jury failed to indict in the chokehold killing of Staten Island father of four Eric Garner has a pretty extensive history of abusing black men but in a very sick and twisted way. Check out the disturbing details below...

NYPD Officer Daniel Pantaleo escaped justice when a Staten Island grand jury refused to indict him in the homicide of Black father, Eric Garner. Garner's death was captured on video as Pantaleo used an illegal chokehold to subdue the man. Much has been said in the media about Garner's frequent arrests for selling loose cigarettes, but nothing about Pantaleo's multiple charges of abusing black men during arrests.

NYPD officials have confirmed that Pantaleo's received at least 3 lawsuits regarding his abusive behavior. In February of 2012, Pantaleo initiated a traffic stop on Darren Collins and Tommy Rice. The two men were accused by Pantaleo of passing drugs and he ordered them out of the vehicle. During the search of the two men, Pantaleo pulled Rice's pants and underwear down and slapped his genitals. This strip search was done on the street at 10:30 in the morning humiliating the two men. No drugs were found on the men and they sued Pantaleo. The city settled out of court with the men for $15,000 a piece. 



Also in 2012, Pantaleo was sued by Rylawn Walker who he arrested and charged with marijuana related offenses. However, Walker stated that he was "committing no crime at that time and was not acting in a suspicious manner." Pantaleo was found to have lied during his arresting report and all charges were dismissed against Walker. The court records were sealed and Walker's lawsuit is still pending.

The most recent incident involving Pantaleo occurred in November of 2012 when Pantaleo arrested Kenneth Collins. Like in his previous arrests of suspects, Pantaleo accused Collins of possessing marijuana and strip searched him. Collins stated that Pantaleo touched his genitals and degraded him during the process. No drugs were found and all charges were dismissed against Collins. The records regarding the incident were sealed by court order and the city has not responded to the lawsuit that was filed by Collins' lawyers.

As previously reported by rolling out, the Staten Island precinct has been a dumping ground for bad cops. There have been multiple complaints; Pantaleo is just the latest. -Via RO


WTF? This pervert cop obviously has some sick fascination with black male genitalia for him to be strip searching grown men and touching their private parts for no reason. The fact that this officer has once again gotten off scott-free at the tax payers expense and allowed to continue working just proves that the NYPD, as well as many other police departments, are in need of a serious overhaul! This is pure bulls**t!

Delivery suite horror story: Doctors 'killed baby during birth and tried to cover it up with a Caesarean'


A Missouri couple have filed a lawsuit against a pair of obstetricians, accusing them of decapitating their baby during his 2011 delivery and then trying to hide it by shoving the child’s body and severed head back into the birth canal.
In a court complaint that reads like the script of a horror film, Arteisha Betts and Travis Ammonette, of Florissant, described how doctors Gilbert Webb and Susan Moore had allegedly coerced them into a vaginal delivery against their wishes, and then severed their son's head.

The 10-complaint lawsuit cites Midwest Maternal & Fetal Medicine Services, LLC, Signature Medical Group Inc and the two doctors. However, the suit does not list St John’s Mercy Medical Center in St. Louis, where the bungled delivery too place in March 2001, as a defendant.



Outraged parents: Arteisha Betts and Travis Ammonette are suing two obstetricians for allegedly decapitating their son during his 2011 delivery and then trying to cover it up.


Touching tribute: Ammonette got a tattoo of little Kaden's hand prints on his chest last April honoring his deceased son.


According to the court filing, Betts and Ammonette were told by Dr Moore during a February 2011 appointment that the baby will have to be delivered via C-section rather than vaginally because the child had an abnormally large abdomen, Patch Florissant reported.

But when the expectant mother prematurely went into labor on March 22 only 28 weeks and five days into her term, the complaint indicates that Dr Webb 'would not agree' to the Cesarean and 'would only deliver her baby by way of attempted trial of vaginal delivery.'  

The couple claim that the obstetrician also refused to let them go to a different hospital for a Cesarian.

‘Believing that she had no other choice than to agree to a trial of vaginal delivery, plaintiff Arteisha Betts consented to a trial of vaginal delivery under duress and protest,’ according to the complaint.

The infant's head was delivered in the first stage of the birthing process, but in the second stage which got under way at around 10.30pm, the lawsuit claims that his large abdomen became lodged in the birth canal.

According to the complaint, Dr Webb applied traction to the child's head in an attempt to dislodge his body, at which point the infant was decapitated. 

Citing the complaint, the Courthouse News Services reported that blood shot out from the baby’s arteries and veins, spilling onto the floor in full view of the mother and Ammonette, who was sitting only two to four feet away from the birthing bed.

The lawsuit states that Webb then 'pushed decedent's head and body back into plaintiff Arteisha Betts' birth canal' and called for an emergency C-section.

The doctor started cutting into the woman's abdomen before the anesthesia fully set in, causing her great pain and suffering in the process, the suit says.

During the procedure,  the doctor ‘surgically and completely removed’ the child's head from his neck and torso.


Sued: Dr. Gilbert Webb is a defendant in a complaint accusing him of forcing Arteisha Betts into undergoing a vaginal delivery against her wishes



Site: The bungled delivery took place March 2011 at St. John's Mercy Medical Center in St. Louis, but the hospital has not been listed as a defendant in the lawsuit



Before handing the little boy named Kaden Travis to his parents, Webb had allegedly 'intentionally concealed' his neck wounds, although the complaint does not specify how it was done.


The Daily Mail was unable to reach the couple's attorney, Christopher Wright of the firm Millikan Wright in St Louis, on Thursday. Calls to the two medical centers cited in the lawsuit also went unanswered. 

The suit seeks unspecified damages to cover pregnancy costs, funeral expenses as well as personal injury and wrongful death.

Woman Who Brought Her 8-Month Old Baby To Bank Robbery Sentenced To 6 Years In Prison.


30-year old Tanya Miller will spend the next 6 years in prison, which will give her plenty of time to reflect on her mistakes.

The New York Daily News reports that Miller, her boyfriend Barry Doswell and another accomplice, Kevin Docherty, hatched a plan to rob a bank in northern England.



Barry Doswell and Tanya Miller

Miller was the getaway driver while the other two entered the bank. The mother of four had her 8-month old child strapped in a car seat during the ordeal.

The three got away with $5,000, but were soon tracked down.



Kevin Docherty

Docherty, who threatened a bank teller with a knife during the robbery, was sentenced to 7 years in prison. Miller and Doswell got 6 years each.
