It was reported that last September, Child Protective Services was contacted by a 15-year-old girl who told them that her parents had been locking her in a chicken coop for several months. They notified the Farmington Police Department to report the situation, which reportedly involved a couple who was believed to be abusing their teenage daughter, and an investigation was opened. The police learned that the parents of the 15-year-old had more than one child in their Farmington home. The couple allegedly treated the other children well, but they were reportedly subjecting the young woman to horrible abuse.

According to reports, the teen was locked inside a chicken coop for long periods, even during times of inclement weather, in which she was forced to stay on her feet.

A Florida man already in jail for a felony theft crime was charged with another felony last week after being identified as a suspect in a case involving a man who reportedly stole from a store and struck the manager in the face with crackers.

Last September, an individual reportedly went into a Family Dollar store and put approximately $50 worth of cleaning products and a package of Goldfish crackers in his basket. According to the police report, the man “passed all points of sale and exited the building without paying.” The manager reported that after he walked out, he went up to a parked car and handed the basket full of allegedly stolen items to someone in the passenger seat. She approached the man, and when the woman tried to talk to him, he reportedly struck her in the face with the box of Goldfish crackers.

The authorities were notified, and although the suspect was no longer at the scene, they collected statements, surveillance video, and the box allegedly used to hit the manager to try to discover their identity. The cracker box was inspected by forensics, and they were able to lift a fingerprint off the package. It reportedly matched a man who had a long list of priors. When the video was reviewed, the police believed the individual was the man whose fingerprints were on the box.
