A man in Oklahoma is facing charges after allegedly pretending to be an attorney so he could visit his incarcerated girlfriend at the county jail.

The incident reportedly occurred at the Oklahoma County Detention Center in Oklahoma City on October 13, when the man allegedly arrived claiming he needed to have power of attorney paperwork signed by his girlfriend, who was being held at the facility.

A Texas corrections officer lost his job and is facing charges for allegedly bringing contraband, in the form of chicken wings, into the facility for an inmate who reportedly paid him for the alleged transaction.

According to reports, a 25-year-old man, who began working last summer as a corrections officer at the Travis County Correctional Complex in Austin, recently became embroiled in a situation involving an inmate who was housed in the facility. The inmate allegedly proposed a deal where the officer would be paid if he agreed to bring him chicken wings from Wingstop, and it was believed that the officer reportedly agreed to the terms. Correctional facilities are allowed to monitor the telephone communications of certain inmates, and things went awry when a Security Threat Intelligence Unit officer was listening in on a call that the inmate made to a family member.

It was reported that during the chat, the inmate shared the alleged plan to satisfy his craving for wings. He reportedly said he convinced an officer to get them for him by sending him $50.00 on CashApp. The authorities began investigating the situation, and they watched surveillance video that showed a food delivery driver dropping off a bag of chicken wings at the facility. The corrections officer retrieved it and ate some of them before allegedly giving the inmate a portion on a paper towel.

According to reports, early in the morning on August 28, seventeen vehicles in the MSU freshman parking lot were damaged, and it was presumed that the destruction was caused by an individual.

A teaching assistant at a high school in South Carolina was arrested after he was accused of tainting the air in the building, causing students and staff to feel ill and damaging the air conditioning system.

While it is not uncommon for kids to say “school stinks” in a metaphorical context to express their displeasure, at the end of August, West Florence High School in Florence experienced a situation involving a literal interpretation of the phrase. It was reported that on the last Monday in August, a noxious smell began permeating throughout the corridors and classrooms. The odor did not dissipate, and several students and employees reported that they started feeling sick. In an attempt to determine the cause of the issue, the air conditioning system was inspected by professionals, but they did not believe it was the source of the odor.

The authorities were notified, and during their investigation, the Florence County Sheriff’s Office learned that the malodorous situation started on August 25 and continued until September 19. When trying to pinpoint the culprit, they were led to a 32-year-old teaching assistant. They believed the man ordered fart spray online and had been spraying it inside the school with enough regularity to cause it to linger.

A middle school teacher in Louisiana was arrested after a K9 reportedly sniffed out what was believed to be narcotics in her belongings during a random drug check on campus.

Random drug checks have become increasingly common on some middle school and high school campuses.

According to reports, the K9 reacted when interacting with her bag, and when her wallet was checked, the police reportedly retrieved a small amount of a white, powdery substance that they surmised was cocaine. When they tested it, they reported positive results. The woman talked to the police about the situation without an attorney present, and she told them it was not hers. Officers searched her vehicle, and they reported that they discovered a bag in the glove compartment.

A Florida man believed to have called 911 at least 45 times in six months was arrested for allegedly making a false bomb threat and assaulting the responding police officers.

On September 11, a man in Melbourne called 911 and reportedly told the dispatcher he planned to use a homemade explosive device to blow up a local causeway.

A man in North Carolina may face felony charges after the authorities accused him of being married to three women at the same time.

According to reports, the authorities in Davidson County received information from someone claiming they suspected a man was married to multiple women.  Davidson County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigation Division detectives began looking into the situation. They reportedly found that a 60-year-old man had a total of three wives – one in Davidson County, one in Guilford County, and one in Lincoln County. The detectives looked for divorce papers, but they alleged that they did not find any. Since the paperwork was missing, they surmised that the man had wed each woman without first ending the previous marriage.

When the authorities tried to find out why the 60-year-old suspect would engage in such behavior, they reported that their investigation led them to believe that he did it for “financial motivation and personal gain.”

A Florida woman is facing several charges for allegedly performing dental procedures without a license on individuals who later required emergency surgery to save their teeth.

According to reports, a woman who advertised discount veneers on social media was arrested in Hillsborough County in March for allegations that she performed procedures on individuals and accepted money for them, but was not a licensed dentist. After the arrest, she allegedly reopened shop at a beauty bar in Pinellas Park and continued attaching veneers. Over the summer, two individuals notified the authorities after reportedly having work done. They informed them that they had to undergo emergency surgery to save their teeth because they developed infections after the procedures. Another alleged customer reported that she was told the veneers would last between five and seven years, but they kept falling out. She said she asked for a refund, but she was denied and then ignored by the woman.

Investigators looked into the situation and reportedly found that the woman had not gone to school or been trained in dentistry, and she was not licensed to practice in the state of Florida. They believed that instead of doing it properly, she used crazy glue or nail glue to affix the veneers.
