Scioto County, Ohio: State officials close down the last pain clinic in the county

From abcnews.go.com:

Attorney General Mike DeWine said Tuesday that local and state officials shut down Greater Medical Advance in Wheelersburg, about 100 miles south of Columbus.

DeWine says an investigation found 14,000 prescriptions came out of the clinic in nine months.

Well, I guess it's back to doing heroin.

Seriously though, these people are going to feed their addictions one way or another. I'd rather have them popping pharmaceutical grade opiates than shooting up with dirty hypodermic needles.

Wife of powerlifting champion Rickey Dale Crain arrested and facing child pornography charges

This is a very strange story. 48 year old Kimberly Crain, wife of powerlifting champion Rickey Dale Crain (currently the owner of Crain's Muscle World) and third grade teacher at McLoud Elementary in McLoud Oklahoma has been arrested and is facing possible child pornography charges. The investigation began when one of her third grade students reported that the teacher had her and 5 other female students dress in Christmas-themed lingerie during what was supposedly a Christmas tree decorating party at Crain's home. Pictures and video were taken of the girls in their underwear while they performed a "cheer dance" at Crain's request. Police have seized the images and say they are "sexual in nature".

If that isn't weird enough, authorities say while in the classroom the teacher would often have the kids speak to a man on Skype who was referred to as "Uncle G". She was also known to take pictures of the kids from time to time posing on their desks. Police are trying to find out who this "Uncle G" character is and if he was the recipient of any pictures or videos.

From krmg.com:

Shawnee police arrested Kimberly Crain yesterday after photos were retrieved from her cell phone.

"The things that these children were made to do can be explained in no other way than it was a sexual interest by Miss Crain."

Pottawatomie County District Attorney Richard Smothermon also told the News On 6 that she is behind bars because investigators consider her to be a major flight risk.

It has also been reported that a $1 million bond was set for Mrs. Crain.

Is Kimberly Crain a lone pedophile? Or was there someone else, "Uncle G" perhaps, guiding her actions.

Update: A civil suit has been filed in Pottawatomie County, OK naming both both Kimberly and Rickey Dale Crain. It's unclear what the details of that complaint are at this time as the suit has been sealed by a judge. Are Rickey Dale Crain and Uncle G one in the same?

Bonus: We found an article written by Rickey Dale Crain back in August entitled "America is a leaderless nation":

"We have a leaderless nation. President Obama, worse than Jimmy Carter, is now on par with perhaps our worst president, James Buchannan, a Democrat coincidentally, whose niece actually ran the country. The disastrous and nationally humiliating downgrade of our country’s credit rating, first in USA history, was not an inevitable consequence of uncontrollable misfortune."

Update 2: We now know who "Uncle G" is, and Kimberly Crain now faces 23 felony counts.

Ontario dairy farmer fined $9,150 for selling raw milk

Evidently it's a big crime to sell raw milk, it's right up there will dealing crack and heroin. Meet Michael Schmidt: he's a dairy farmer and "raw milk crusader" from southern Ontario who was just hit with a $9,150 fine for distributing raw, unpasteurized milk.



From cnews.canoe.ca:

Schmidt was acquitted in January 2010 of 19 charges under the Health Protection and Promotion Act, which makes it illegal to sell or distribute raw, unpasteurized milk in Canada.
-
The judge rejected Schmidt's argument that he is legally allowed to distribute raw milk to members of his so-called cow-share program, in which people "own" shares of his dairy herd.

So what's the big deal, really? Is raw milk really that dangerous? Are these raw milk people crazy?

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) raw milk can contain various bacteria, parasites, and viruses which can make you sick or even kill you. Milk can become contaminated in a variety of ways, everything from cows that have diseases to cow feces coming into contact with the milk. The CDC states that the only way to essentially sterilize the milk and minimize these risks is through pasteurization, and without that, you're opening yourself up to enormous health risks.

So how about the other side of the debate? We took a look at some pro-raw-milk sources to see what all the excitement was about, and why people like Mr. Schmidt are willing to break the law for such a cause.

Raw milk proponents argue that raw milk is chock full of nutritional ingredients and offers many health benefits for those who drink it. We read that in the not so distant past, raw milk from cows was actually used as a medicine to treat and in some cases cure chronic diseases. It contains enough nutrition, the proponents argue, that one could survive purely off the milk, as it contains all of the essential proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, enzymes that one would need, and even some good bacteria to help with the digestive system. Question: does pasteurized milk not contain any of these benefits?

This particular story here with the farmer getting fined comes from Ontario, but The U.S. also has its laws regarding the sale of raw milk. However, judging from the raw milk legal status map below from the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, it appears that many areas in the states are quite liberal about its distribution:



So who's to believe, the proponents or the CDC? The answer probably lies somewhere in the middle. Sure, raw milk without anything done to it may have a little more nutrients in it and some additional health benefits, but that's assuming that you're not also getting any bad bacteria or viruses along with it. I personally doubt the benefits of raw milk outweigh the possible risks associated with it, but as long as the buyer is aware that he is purchasing raw milk and that's the decision he chooses to make, I don't see why we should stop him. We let people buy cigarettes all day long knowing full well it leads to cancer. And there's definitely no health benefits to smoking. So what's the big deal if a small group of people (the CDC says it makes up roughly 1% of total milk consumption) think there's health benefits to raw milk and prefer it over the pasteurized? People should have the freedom to make their own purchasing and living decisions, even if they are judged to be bad decisions by the rest of us.

Mob of 50+ people shoftlift from 7-Eleven, caught on tape

From nbcwashington.com:

About 50 people simultaneously shoplifted from a Silver Spring, Md., 7-Eleven Saturday night.
-
Police stopped a group of six people ages 16-18 near Tech Road and Broadbirch Drive. Each had items from the 7-Eleven but no receipts, police said.

Well at least they got some of them, too bad it was only six. But even for six they caught, do you really think they'll get any kind of serious punishment? Every single one of these people should be locked up in jail for a very long time. Petty theft like this is considered a minor crime and the most punishment thieves can usually expect to get is a slap on the wrist. But anyone who steals crosses a very clear line, both legally and morally. It's not like someone who goes a little over the speed limit, and it's not a simple lapse in judgment. These people have made a conscious decision to disrespect others by taking things that clearly do not belong to them - they're taking money from other peoples pockets. Stealing a candy bar and a soda may not do much harm in the big scheme of things but it's very indicative of the mindset of the person who crosses that moral and legal line. Folks like this need to be eliminated from society for a long time.

Video released of Judge William Adams beating his daughter

Video has been released of Arkansas County Court-at-Law Judge William Adams beating his teenage daughter back in 2004. Her big crime? Downloading some games and music off the internet. Video below, viewer discretion is advised.



He's clearly getting off on it, who would really get that mad over downloading music? He's using that as an excuse to be the monster that he is. CBS news is reporting that he's agreeing to take a paid leave since the release of this video. Ohh nice, a paid vacation.

Update: A friend of People Liking People has sent us his phone number and address. We can't confirm the validity of it yet but here it is:

Judge William Adams
717 N Magnolia St
Rockport, TX 78382-2828
Work Phone: (361) 790-0138  Fax: (361) 790-0185

Home Phone: (361) 729-3452

If anyone has any additional information please post it in the comments.

By the way, it turns out that the daughter recorded this and uploaded it herself. We just want to say that this girl is fucking awesome and it's a shame that her dad is such a piece of shit. She did the right thing by releasing this and exposing him for the creep that he is. He probably won't face any criminal consequences but hopefully the public shaming will be enough to provide at least a little bit of justice for how he treated her.

Update: The Huffington Post reports that Judge William Adams will not be facing charges due to the amount of time that has passed since the incident. The beating too place in 2004 and the statute of limitations has expired. It's unfortunate but we figured this would be the case. We're hoping that the amount of public shaming will be more than enough to at least offer some type of justice.

The Huffington Post is also reporting that Judge Wiliam Adams has issued a 3 page statement attacking his daughter and basically putting all the blame on her:

William Adams, 51, issued a three-page statement Thursday saying his daughter posted the clip to get back at him for telling her he would be reducing the amount of financial support he gives her and taking away her Mercedes. The statement did not include an apology for the beating.

You know what? We could really give a fuck. Even if she was shaking him down for 10 million dollars we still couldn't care less. And if that were the case we would applaud her for it because nothing can ever be done to reverse the pain he put his daughter through during her childhood. Of course, he's probably bullshitting but even if he isn't that doesn't really change anything at all. It speaks nothing of the issue at hand, which is child abuse. You are a creep and a monster and if you have any criticisms about what she does now, just look at who raised her you fucking dick.

This guy is sick. This isn't just punishing and it's not even just a beating. Judge William Adams gets off on dominating teenage girls and we wouldn't be surprised if he's a pedophile. Why was he so obsessed with whooping her behind? The rest of her body wouldn't cut it, he kept demanding that she bend over for him. Also note how he turned off the lights before he began. Btw you can't tell me anyone would really get that mad over downloading a few songs. I bet he was just looking for a chance every day to become outraged so he could exert his power while everyone in his family was scared shitless.

By the way, the daughter Hillary Adams appeared on the Today Show with Matt Lauer and she is just a wonderful person. It really takes a lot of guts to come out with the video and go on television like that and she seems like a really strong woman.

Ohio Gym Teacher Jailed for Sex With Students

From abcnews.com:

A popular Ohio high school gym teacher has been sentenced to four years in jail after a judge rejected her insanity defense and convicted her on 16 counts of sexual battery for sleeping with several of her former students.

This happens like every other day now doesn't it? You gotta wonder who these guys are that keep turning their hot female teachers in. They gave you the time of your life, a moment you'll never forget. And you fucked it up.

Our favorite quote from the story:

One of the victim's fathers testified at the trial of how his son was negatively affected by Schuler's actions.

"He suffered from depression, loss of motivation … almost didn't go to college -- he was angry at home and he didn't want to be around family or anyone -- my son was not who he used to be," the father said.

Hmmm loss of motivation, didn't want to go to college, didn't want to be around family....Isn't this normal for a guy in his late teens? What 17 year old kid do you know loves hanging out with the folks and has motivation?
