Man Gets Run Over By Daughter When He Tries To Stop Drunk Driving

A 37 year-old woman remains behind bars this morning on charges that she backed over, and killed her father when he tried to prevent her from driving drunk.

Police say the now defendant, Soukvilay Barton, had been drinking with family members at her parents house last weekend.  At some point in the evening she decided to head home, but her father didn't want her driving while she was under the influence.

He even went so far as to follow her out to the driveway as she was getting into her car.  When that didn't work he stood directly behind her vehicle …

If you're sitting there scratching your head after reading the title to this post, you're certainly not alone.

California Teens Arrested For “Ballin Too Hard”

Every now and again you'll hear a story about someone getting arrested for something really really silly- like stealing a pack of gum or on a warrant for an old unpaid parking tickets.

But in the case of these two Bay Area teenagers, they figured, if they were going to do something illegal, they were sure as heck going to go big or go home.

It all started last Saturday when 19 year-old friends Nhima Kahsay and Mohannad Halaweh used a fraudulently obtained credit card to rent a McLaren sports car.

At some point, though, the dealership reported it stolen.  That's when …

Activist Sues Police After She Was Arrested For Clapping

A California woman said she's suing the Riverside Police Department for violating her Constitutional right to clap.

It all started last summer when Letitia Pepper attended a city council meeting.   Although it's not entirely clear what the council was voting on that night, what is known is that the mayor asked attendees to refrain from clapping after public comments.

Noisy shows of support could dissuade others from chiming in, he said, especially if those people had alternative viewpoints.

But Pepper wasn't swayed, and when one particular speaker finished speaking his mind, she put her hands together.

Whens he was asked to stop, she …

$15K Worth of Kindness of a Stranger

It's hard to imagine that anyone would put up $15,000 cold, hard cash of their own money to help get a total stranger out of jail.

But that's exactly what happened late last week, when Jennifer Bartley saw 25-year old Calvin Wilkes being taken into custody.

She's described the event as being one of the worst things she had ever seen.

Wilkes and two others were arrested last Thursday for allegedly  causing a disturbance near the Light Street pavilion.  Officers said they refused to leave, and that's when things got heated.

The arrest was brutal,  according to bystanders, who say the methods used …

Inmate Says He Busted Out Of Jail Due To Loud Rap Music

Don't commit the crime if you can't do the time
An inmate who was serving a six and a half year sentence at a minimum security prison in the UK said "enough was enough", and that the constant playing of loud hip-hop music led is what prompted his jailbreak.

The music was driving him nuts, he said, and he was tired about being hounded by other inmates to buy drugs.

And eventually, when it got to the point that he was on his last very nerve, he decided to climb over a security wall and make a run for it.

Robert Stevens remained …

Special Delivery: Sending Children Through The Mail

Would you believe that there was a time in the U.S. where you could mail your baby to grandmas house?

The answer is: Yes.

From 1913 to 1920, it was legal to mail a child.

In January 1913, the US Postal Service introduced Parcel Post, which allowed people to ship packages that was too heavy for the traditional letter carrier. Packages could weigh up to 11 pounds.

It has been reported that there were some instances where people would actually mail their young children - who met the weight requirements - to a relative.
