Yes, really. It’s a common and dangerous misconception that you have to actually raise your hand at your partner or child for it to be considered abuse — at least in our state. Sure, no SWAT team is going to kick down your door and tackle you if you jokingly threaten to kill your wife…

The need for speed can be swell indeed. Wind blowing through your hair, the adrenaline, the feeling of both power and danger in equal measure — going fast is fun! When we were kids, this high came in the form of races and go-carts, but we’ve got something a bit better now. Most of us…

Wendy Lynn Wein attempted to have her ex-husband killed by a hitman for hire. The thing she didn’t know was that the website that she hired the hitman from was a fake website, and that the person running the website turned her over to the police. Bob Innes had initially set up the website as…

It’s that time of year when the air gets colder and the days get darker. There are holiday parties to attend, snowball fights to be fought, and driveways to be shoveled. So how do we stay warm in the freezing temperatures? We wear our boots, hats, and mittens, and maybe take a swig of that…
