A vulnerable woman took her own life after finding a video of her boyfriend raping and sexually assaulting her on his phone while playing a game.
Edward Weeks, 33, from Cwmbran, South Wales, recorded the sick attack on motion-sensitive cameras in his bedroom with Tina Lewis unaware of what was happening until she inadvertently discovered the footage…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
The 24-year-old victim was described at Cardiff Crown Court as being ‘childlike’ with several mental difficulties and dependent on her partner during the course of their on-off relationship beginning in 2017.
Weeks’ attack took place on December 28 last year while the victim was asleep.
Ms Lewis – who also suffered with ADHD and emotional problems – told her social worker after finding the video.
However, the investigation process became too much for her and she died by suicide.
Matthew Cobbe, prosecuting, said: ‘Ms Lewis suffered from autism, emotional dysregulation, self-harm, and at times [was] suicidal. She presented as childlike and she carried a special teddy bear with her.’
Setting out the chronology of events, he told the court how Weeks let Ms Lewis stay at his home on the day of the attack.
The prosecutor explained Weeks then let her use his phone to play a game the next day.
She was able to find the video because the cameras were synched to Weeks’ phone. She then confided in her friend before a social worker reported the incident to Gwent Police on December 30.
Mr Cobbe said: ‘As a result the defendant was arrested and interviewed. The defendant [said] in an interview that he had had sex with Ms Lewis as she slept. He described in detail his movements and said Ms Lewis stayed asleep throughout.
‘He also confirmed he did not disclose it to Ms Lewis the next morning that he had had sex with her.’
The prosecutor told the court that it ‘was the processes that followed the complaint as opposed to the rape itself’ that appears to have had an “extreme impact” on the victim and led to her death.
However, he pointed out that an investigation was unavoidable once it was reported given the seriousness of the incident.
He said: ‘Here we have a victim whose agony of the investigation was such that ultimately she took her own life… In the weeks that followed she agonised about the process itself but also about the effect it was going to have on the defendant.’
Mr Cobbe said the incident was a clear abuse of trust by Weeks given Ms Lewis’ difficulties that were known to him.
He said other aggravating factors included the fact she was asleep and it was recorded on cameras that Weeks would have known were live at the time.
Her sibling said Ms Lewis had never had an easy life, noting how her mum died when she was aged just 11.
This led to a mental health spiral for Ms Lewis who was put in care and moved from home to home as carers struggled to cater for her complex needs.
Ms Lewis’ sister said after her sibling met Weeks he became her full-time carer and she relied on him for many tasks.
Ms Lewis was someone who volunteered for charity and regularly put others before herself, it continued.
The statement said: ‘The effect on our family has been devastating…I have lost my best friend…Tina was the greatest inspiration of my life.’
Julia Cox, for Weeks, addressed the court and said: ‘This is a tragic case and nothing that I say in mitigation detracts from that.’
She told the court how her ‘remorseful’ client has a clean criminal history, entered timely guilty pleas to counts of rape and sexual assault, and cooperated fully with the investigation.
She said Weeks suffers with complex personal struggles of his own, including autism, and stated that his relationship with Ms Lewis was ‘complex’.
She said he did not place cameras in his room for sexual gratification.
She asked Judge Jeremy Jenkins to take into consideration that it was the stresses associated with the process of the investigation that directly led to Ms Lewis’ death rather than the act of rape itself.
However, Judge Jenkins later rejected this.
Addressing Weeks directly Judge Jenkins said: ‘The fact of the matter is that you committed a very wicked act and the only sentence this court can pass is one with immediate custody.’
He added: ‘Mitigation suggests there is a distinction to be made between your act and what followed. I disagree: they followed one another.
‘Once penetration had taken place and the offence admitted there was bound to be a full investigation that followed the act. The effect of the investigation proved sadly too much for Ms Lewis.’
He sentenced Weeks to eight years in prison with two-thirds of that to be spent in custody before he is released on licence.
He will also be on the sex offender register for the rest of his life.
As all parents know by now, nurses are responsible for the daily care of your baby. They will feed, change, and bathe your baby. They will also give medicines and keep track of vital signs – like temperature, breathing, and heart rate); and monitor medical equipment.
But, unfortunately, sometimes they forget what’s their job description. Per reports. a group of nurses reportedly recorded themselves doing the unthinkable a newborn’s face fired after video infuriates public.
The group of nurses who recorded themselves chuckling while cruelly crushing the face of a hospitalized newborn have actually been fired after their video was flowed online.
The baby’s household discovered the worrying treatment their kid had actually gotten at the hands of these nurses after the video was shared on social networks. In the stunning video, a nurse can be seen consistently getting the baby by the neck and forehead, and inhumanely crushing the child’s face, while the onlooking nurses chuckled…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
The 3 nurses, who were operating at a maternity ward were rapidly determined and found. The Health Affairs examined the source of the video and had the ability to determine the nurses who appeared in the video and the medical facility where the event occurred,’ stated representative Abdulhadi. After being determined, the nurses were quickly suspended from their positions at the maternity medical facility. They have because had their medical licenses withdrawed and have actually been prohibited from practicing nursing in other health departments. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>
The newborn’s daddy notified media his child had actually remained in the health center for 10 days for treatment of a urinary system infection and was horrified after seeing the video commonly flowed on social networks platforms. He has actually required the nurses, in addition to those who distributed the upsetting video, to be penalized. Some have actually recommended that CCTV needs to be set up throughout the healthcare facility to assist in avoiding the incident of a comparable occasion.
According to the court documents, the 20-year-old defendant, Christopher, pleaded guilty to ra-ing one young girl and se-ually abusing three others over the course of a year.
But, unfortunately,, thanks to the judge’s sympathy, he won’t even set foot inside of a prison cell for any of his crimes. The victims of the defendant are tormented by the fact that their se-ual abuser will not be jailed for his actions. The defendant was formally charged with first-degree ra-e, third-degree ra-e, and se-ual abuse involving multiple minors when he was only 17 years old.
The abuse occurred over the course of a year at his home. He later pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree se* abuse, third-degree attempted abuse, and third-degree ra-e.
Per reports, Judge Murphy said in front of Belter and his victims that he agonized over whether or not to imprison the rapist. He then announced that Belter would receive no jail time and just eight years of probation for his crimes because jailing him wouldn’t be an appropriate sentence…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
Judge Murphy went on to say that he came to his decision based on the ra-ist’s age at the time of the crimes. The defendant was 16 or 17 when he ra-ed a teen girl and se-ually abused three others, whose ages ranged from 15 to 16 years. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>
“I agonized — I’m not ashamed to say that I actually prayed over what is the appropriate sentence in this case. because there was great pain. There was great harm — There were multiple crimes committed in the case,” Judge Murphy explained. “It seems to me that a sentence that involves incarceration or partial incarceration isn’t appropriate, so I am going to sentence you to probation.” Although the defendant is required to register as a se* offender, he received a sentence of two years interim probation which, if completed, will earn him Youthful Offender status. His probation restrictions include no contact with minors, living with his parents, employment or full-time student status, and no internet. “It’s going to be like a sword hanging over your head for the next eight years,” Judge Murphy remarked.
Christopher’s victims learned in court that he would receive no jail time. Understandably, they were stunned and disgusted with the judge’s decision.
One of the victim’s attorneys attributed the merciful sentence to Christopher’s race and economic status. “I am deeply, deeply disappointed. I expected a different outcome today,” declared Cohen, attorney. “Justice was not done today. He is privileged. He comes from money. He is white. He was sentenced as an adult, appropriately — for an adult to get away with these crimes is unjust.”
According to the court documents, the 50-year-old disabled woman, Asenka, was reportedly charged with murder for allegedly killing her mother.
The woman appeared in court and had an interesting request for the judge. Per reports, Asenka was charged with the murder of her 75-year-old mother at the home they shared and then dug a grave for her in the backyard.
She was brought into the court in a wheelchair, where she requested ‘the unexpexted’. Among the many people who commented about this incident, one person remarked: “Give her what she wants.”
Per reports, the 50-year-old woman reportedly said: “I want the death penalty. Lethal injection, please. The court does not want me alive, and neither do I.” She had reportedly told detectives that her mother, Carole, abused her physically over the years. When they fought the previous week, she punched her mother in the head and she passed away…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
The woman then spent the rest of the day digging a grave, stopping when she became exhausted. She later went to a neighbor’s house to say her mother had died, with the neighbor calling 911 to request a welfare check. When police arrived, they found the victim’s body in the bedroom and a hole in the ground several feet deep.
Police reviewed Asenka’s phone to discover she had taken photos after her mother’s killing, including injuries to her hands and arms that she allegedly sustained during ther fight. Prosecutors noted that the victim had obtained a restraining order against Asenka last year and filed to renew it, but the order was dropped when they didn’t appear at the court hearing. Asenka’s attorney argued that his client was afraid of her mother because of the alleged abuse, but a friend of the victim that the older woman was very petite and said she had talked about her daughter’s mental health problems.
Among the many people who commented about the murder case, one person remarked: “Give her what she wants. I know they can do it and quickly because years ago a man who had killed and abused two boys asked to be hanged and he was within the year.” Another commenter added: “How sweet of her to tell the court what she wants. Her mother didn’t have a choice and I presume she didn’t want to be murdered. Let her go crazy and rot in a cell.” One commenter agreed, noting: “Too easy! Let her suffer for the rest of her life for what she did. I suspect the wheelchair is a prop!”
