serial murderer and rapist to be euthanized tomorrow at his request - Belgium

A serial murderer and rapist, who has spent 30 years in prison, is set to be euthanized in Belgium on January 11. He has asked to die due to his “unbearable” psychological suffering, local media reports.

Fifty-year-old Frank Van Den Bleeken has been convicted of repeated rape and murder, and the “euthanasia will indeed be implemented” in the northwestern town of Bruges, a justice ministry spokeswoman told local De Morgen newspaper.

“Now the time has come,” she said.

Van Den Bleeken's euthanasia request was approved in September, but no date for the procedure was set then.

He has reportedly refused to be considered for early parole, viewing himself as a threat to society. However, he found the conditions behind bars inhumane, AFP reported, citing Belgian media.

cop takes couple's cash but lets them keep some for rent money

According to the arrest affidavit, the 32-year-old officer came upon a man and woman in a parked car, separated the two and asked the man if he had anything illegal in his car.

The man told the officer that he had an unloaded rifle, $5,500 cash and a duffel bag containing marijuana.

The affidavit states that Officer [Konrad] Chatys offered to "'give him a break' because it was the holidays" and took the rifle, marijuana and some, but not all, of the cash after the woman pleaded that she needed rent money.

SAPD's Internal Affairs Unit checked the story with the officer's dashcam video, and according to the affidavit, the video appears to show him taking the money, drugs and rifle.

Survivors of the deadly Ebola virus in Liberia are using their immunity to help others

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/ebola/11336745/Watch-The-Ebola-survivors-in-Liberia-who-are-saving-lives.html

One month after Peter’s death Davies left the clinic, a survivor of the world’s worst Ebola outbreak, which has so far claimed more than 7,000 lives across west Africa, almost half of those in Liberia. Her father, Reverend Barromi Davies, calls her ‘the resurrected Decontee’. ‘He thought I was dead – everybody in my community did. Coming out of there was a miracle of God.’

Now she spends her days with the children. ‘Many of them don’t have parents to take care of them,’ she says. ‘I know how traumatising Ebola is because I went through it and survived. That has given me the passion to live here and work with these children.’

Davies is among more than 4,000 Liberians currently known to have contracted and survived Ebola. Many have lost everybody only to return home and find they have been evicted by their landlords and their most intimate possessions have been destroyed – burnt or doused in chlorine by health-care workers wearing quarantine suits. They are left with little more than an immunity to the virus that has stripped them of everything.

soldiers prized Gremlin towed and sold for scrap while she was deployed

Florida soldier’s car towed, scrapped during Somalia deployment
A homeowners association had U.S. Army Reserve Lt. Col. Alexzandria Kelly's prized 1972 Gremlin hauled away while the nurse and 26-year veteran served overseas, a federal lawsuit says.
One tow company’s junk was a deployed soldier’s treasure — and now she’s suing.

U.S. Army Reserve Lt. Col. Alexzandria Kelly returned in August to her Florida home after a tour in Somalia to discover her prized 1972 Gremlin had been hauled away and sold for scrap, the Sun Sentinel reported.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/florida-soldier-car-towed-sold-somalia-deployment-article-1.2073078
Kelly’s late father left her the classic hatchback in his will, and she’d kept the car running and had registered it with the state and her homeowners association in Margate, about 10 miles northwest of Fort Lauderdale.

She figured it would be safe in a guest spot at the complex while she was serving her country overseas, but association hardliners spotted a slowly deflating tire and called West Way Towing in March to whisk it away, according to court documents.

By the time Kelly returned, the tow shop had auctioned her irreplaceable ride for $525.

The chagrined owner of West Way claimed they would never have done it had they known the Gremlin belonged to a soldier
He reportedly offered to refund the $525 to Kelly.
