Death Penalty for Child Rapists Denied by Supreme Court

Thursday, 26 June 2008 05:42 by Admin

 

This past Wednesday, the Supreme Court was completely split on a decision that they made for enacting the death penalty against child rapists. The Supreme Court has been debating over this situation for some time and have finally made a decision as to what the verdict will be.

Out of the 9 Supreme Court Justices, 5 voted no for the death penalty being an option for those who have been convicted of rape against a child. This is the final decision of the Supreme Court which makes any state decision overturned by this decision.

None of the justices have made any official statements as to the background opinions behind the decision that they made. Although there has been an uproar publically about this decision, the Supreme Court has made this decision which makes it final in our judicial system.

FDA recalls Coffee Product

Wednesday, 18 June 2008 03:26 by Admin

The Food and Drug Administration has recently recalled the Tipu’s Tiger Chai-brand Concentrate. The FDA says that this product contains Clostridium Botulinum which is bacteria. The FDA has stated that if this product is ingested, it can cause life-threatening illness or can even lead to a possible death.

Tipu’s Tiger Chai is a company in Missoula, Montana and has been running for a reasonable amount of time. The company began the recall voluntarily and is trying to warn customers as soon as possible about the product. The product is currently being distributed in stores in western Montana as well as one care in Prescott, Arizona.

The FDA was concerned because the businesses were mixing the drinks on site and worried about consumption. The company has currently said that the consumers can return the product to any local store for a full refund from either the store or the company.

Police Officer Kills Man who Beat Toddler to Death

Monday, 16 June 2008 02:57 by Admin

Eyewitnesses said that the Turlock man was beating a toddler to death late last night. Three different eyewitnesses tried to pull the man off the child but were quickly shaken off by the attacker.  There is no word yet as to why the attacker was beating the child, but police have said that the child was pronounced dead before he got to the hospital.

The elderly couple was the first to arrive on the scene and tried to keep the man from continuing to hit the small child. Others arrived on the scene and again tried to stop the man but didn’t have any luck with keeping him for hitting the child. When police first arrived on the scene, they thought that the man had hit a small child but were horrified to find out that it was a small boy that was bleeding in front of the car.  The police tried to jump in front of the man and stop him when the man lunged at the officer. The officer pulled out his gun and shot the man that had been attacking the child. Police have not released the identity of anyone that was involved yet.
