Man Busts Wife Having Sex With His Friend on Porn DVD Titled “Affairs with Others’ Wives”
TAIWAN – A Taiwanese worker got the shock of his life when he purchased a porn DVD only to find hidden camera motel footage of his wife having sex with one of his best friends (who was later stabbed).
The husband, who has been identified only by his Taiwanese surname Lee, first discovered the illicit sex tape in Taoyuan County in 2002. He divorced his wife, and his friend (a butcher) fled the village.
Lee found the Butcher in the nearby city of Chungli in August of 2008, and promptly returned to stab the man in the thigh.
Lee is being sued by the butcher for inflicting body harm, and has been unsuccessful in an attempt to countersue the butcher (due to a five-year statue of limitation).
Lee is facing a sentence of less than six months in prison, which can then be replaced by a fine under local law.

Dutch Marijuana Fields Cannot Hide From Canna Chopper
The Netherlands (and their capital city of Amsterdamn) have garnished a well known reputation for their loose laws on the cannabis plant and marijuana, but most people don’t realize that the drug is NOT completely legal in the nation. According to some reports, only as much as 10% of the Marijuana grown in the nation is sold and grown legally.
In an effort to crack down on illegal marijuana growing, Dutch authorities developed the “Canna Chopper.” The unmanned helicopter craft is equipped with odor sensors that can “smell marijuana” and also uses video detection technology. In it’s first trial run in the field, it was successfull in discovering a marijuana farm that lead to the arrest of seven individuals.
While technology like this is unfortunate for the outdoor Marijuana growers of the world, it is unlikely that it will affect all of the many indoor grow operations and legal coffee shop outlets that we have all grown to know and love.
21 Arrested After Year Long Investigation Pays Off With Seven Ounce Bust
Twenty-one students were arrested today after a year long investigation at the University of Illinois.
Apparently the police arrested 21 students all around campus, from the dorms to the sorority houses. After thousands of tax payers dollars the police “bust” (no pun intended) resulted in a mere 180 grams of pot, three thousand dollars in cash, and traces of cocaine.
Police then went on to seize two vehicles, two laptops, and three flat-screen televisions, all in name of the war on drugs. The kids arrested face expulsion from the school and charges on manufacturing and delivering marijuana.
So, basically after a year of buying pot from college students or “going undercover” as university police Lt. Roy Acree referred to it. They ruined twenty-one kids lives for seven ounces of grass. To protect and serve, yeah right.
So Real, You Get Arrested!
Sony should consider the new slogan, “So real, you get arrested” after the danish S.W.A.T. team arrested two people for playing PS3 yesterday. Apparently, a neighbor called the police when she heard, what she believed to be, gunshots from the apartment next door. In reality, the two gamers had only temporarily turned up the volume of their PS3 game . The danish S.W.A.T. team was called into action, and the 2 ”suspects” were arrested on the suspicion of a shooting. It is unclear whether the suspects will face any lesser charges (such as disturbing the peace or noise pollution).
Mafia-based Facebook Groups Cause Alarm in Italy
It is no secret that “social networking” sites, such as Facebook, are changing the way that our societies function and interact with
each other. In the history of human civilization, it has never been this easy to find, network, and collaborate with individuals with common interests and beliefs. Maybe it’s a little bit too easy, according to some people in Italy.
Yahoo News reports that a growing number of people have become concerned over the youth of the nation’s attraction to (and admiration of) ruthless mafia frontmen.
Social tools such as Facebook are a double-edged sword; for the intelligent criminal, these tools could make networking and communications easier and faster than ever before. On the opposite side of the coin, detectives are using these websites to infiltrate closed circles and target careless victims who openly acknowledge their disregard for common laws.

Attorney General Considers Legalizing Marijuana
Arizona – Attorney General Terry Goddard is tired of the Mexican drug cartels that terrorize both sides of the border, and he has a revolutionary new strategy to get rid of them; he wants to eliminate their biggest source of income. According to Goddard, marijuana sales make roughly 75% of the money that cartels use to fund other operations (such as smuggling other drugs and fighting the Mexican army and police.)
Goddard said that if a way can be found to control its distribution, he might be willing to consider legalizing marijuana. Goddard also agnowledged the fact that some serious hurdles remain before that would even become a possibility (such as establishing the legal means of distribution).
Mathew Allen, a special agent said. “The key is, they will no longer exist when people don’t buy marijuana” (in regards to the cartels) . “This is a market-driven economy and this is a market-driven activity.”
