The man known as the "Craigslist Killer" has finally been arrested.
My views on the world, current issues and breaking news.


Police in Boston are on a manhunt after a woman was killed in a hotel room by someone she met on Craigslist. 26-Year-Old Julissa Brisman of New York City was shot several times in the torso and later died at Boston Medical Center from her wounds.
Police have surveillance of a man outside of the hotel room that they believed solicited women online for massages and meets them at hotel rooms and robs them. The same man is also seen on surveillance by a Westin Hotel in Boston, where a 29-year-old women was found bound a robbed in a hotel room. Both women offered massage service on Cragislist.com.
Local hotels said they have beefed up security in the wake of the shooting.

A Nine-Year-Old boy from New York City made a plastic parachute to imitate one of his favorite television wrestlers. He then went on a rooftop and jumped, falling to his death.
Domori Miles loved watching "WWE Smackdown vs. Raw" and his families believes he was imitating them when he made his plastic parachute and jumped.
But the WWE has issues a statement saying that no "SmackDown vs. Raw" characters jump off buildings or use parachutes." They are sympathetic to the family, though, and are calling for a full investigation into the tragedy.

Tamara Hofmann, an Arizona high school teacher, was involved in a love triangle with two of her former students. It was not until one of them found out about that other that things turned deadly.
Sixto Balbuena, 20, stabbed 18-year-old Samuel Valdivia to death. He found Valdivia sleeping in bed with his girlfriend. Both men are former students of 48-year-old Hofmann.
Valdivia apologized to Balbuena and fought back in an attempt to save his life. He later died at the hospital from multiple stab wounds.


All I've been reading in the news is about an 8year old girl from California that was killed by her friends mother, a Sunday school teacher. Melissa Huckaby of Tracy California is charged with kidnapping, rape and murder of little Sandra Cantu.
Imagine living just miles away from the murder, and having the same name and lifestyle as the accused killer.
Melissa Huckaby lives in Manetca, California and is a single mother to a 5year old girl and is also a Sunday school teacher. Just like the accused killer from Tracy. Miss Huckaby of Manetca has been getting death threats and has camera crews following her, thinking she is the accused child killer.
To help resolve the situation, she has decided to use the media to explain to people who she is, and is not.
