As he fled for his life, dripping blood along a South Side sidewalk early Sunday, Morris Wilson III called a friend on his cell phone, desperately seeking help.

His friend came too late. Wilson, 30, a father of a 9-year-old boy, was found dead of stab wounds in an apartment courtyard….(Full Story)

Husband poisoning case goes to jury

By: The Associated Press

SYRACUSE — There are too many questions left unanswered for a jury to convict a 41-year-old woman of poisoning her husband with antifreeze and then trying to kill her daughter with an overdose of vodka and prescription drugs, the woman’s lawyer argued Monday.

“You can’t guess someone is guilty of murder. You have to know it beyond all reasonable doubt,” defense attorney Charles Keller said during a closing argument that took nearly 2 1/2 hours.

But District Attorney William Fitzpatrick told the 10 women and two men on the jury there is no doubt former Weedsport resident Stacey Castor is guilty.

“The defendant’s actions speak for themselves … This is a woman who murdered two husbands, for the convenience of it, for the profit of it, and then tried to murder her own flesh-and-blood and frame her for it,” the Onondaga County prosecutor said. “This tale of horror, deceit, evil and murder is about to come to an end.”….(Full Story)

50 Million Pays to Leave your Lover
By Charles Adler
Friday, January 23, 2009

A fool and his money are easily parted…well sometimes not so easily. Sometimes it takes the judge’s gavel to pound on the pocket book to shake the shekels loose and it’s happening in Quebec.

As you heard on Adler OnLine earlier this week, a Montreal-based Billionaire is having a bit of a tussle in court with his former girlfriend, who feels that considering she lived with him for ten years and considering she had three kids with him, she should be considered his wife, and therefore be entitled to far more money than he paid her when she hit the trail 7 years ago with only 10K to find an apartment, another 10K for the kids and 5K for some new clothes. That’s what was reported earlier. However, in court today it emerged that she’s been getting more than thirty-thousand dollars a month in child support for the kids over the last five years and he also bought her a condo worth more than two-million dollars, with a staff of seven.

She is also suing in Brazil for half his wealth estimated at over a Billion dollars….(Full Story)

Florida Abuse Shelter Scandal
from MND: Your Daily Dose of Counter-Theory by Carey Roberts

“It was really terrible what I went through.” These were the first words that Yvonne Scott blurted out, even though the incident happened more than five years ago.

One morning a social worker and policeman showed up on the woman’s doorstep. “Either you come with us to the abuse shelter or we take away your children,” was their grim-faced ultimatum. Scott had been previously involved in an abusive relationship, but there was no current threat to Ms. Scott or any of her three children.

One might expect such an encounter to occur in the former Soviet Union or maybe a Latin America banana republic. But in the sunshine-addled state of Florida?….(Full Story)
