Perv Learns Fate After Traveling From Chile to LA to Meet Girl He Lured Into Roblox Sex Scheme

/1 Comment/in , /by

A Chilean man was sentenced Monday to 11 years behind bars after he tricked a teen girl he met on Roblox into sending him explicit photos — then traveled to California with plans to meet up with the child.

Santiago resident Daniel Andres Aravena Olivia, 22, will spend 135 months in federal prison after he admitted to disgusting interactions with the 14-year-old girl through Roblox and on FaceTime and Zoom, the US Department of Justice announced.

Olivia’s digital reign of terror began in late 2023, when he targeted the young teen on the popular gaming platform Roblox, sending her messages that were “often sexual in nature,” federal prosecutors said.

He eventually tricked the victim into producing explicit photos of herself but the girl’s family found out about the sickening interactions in April 2024, authorities said.

The girl’s parents blocked Olivia and alerted law enforcement but the story didn’t end there, prosecutors said.

In August 2024, the perv allegedly hopped a flight from Santiago to Los Angeles, intent on finally meeting the underage girl for a sex. But federal agents were waiting for him and cuffed him in the airport. (Read more from “Perv Learns Fate After Traveling From Chile to LA to Meet Girl He Lured Into Roblox Sex Scheme” HERE)

‘Little Rascals’ star living off-the-grid in poverty as ‘Catholic extremist’ after arrest over huffing air duster cans

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Years after his huffing arrest, “Little Rascals” star Bug Hall has traded in Hollywood for a quiet homesteading lifestyle.

The former child star, who identifies as “a radical Catholic extremist,” has moved his wife and five daughters to a small area near Mountain Home, Ark., reports the Daily Mail.

Hall, 40, told the outlet that he already gave up the money he made as a child actor and has taken “a vow of poverty.”

In accordance with his religious commitment, he donated all of his savings along with the majority of his material items, and plans to “maintain a life as free of any need for an income as possible.”

“If there’s a financial need that comes up, I’ll go take some work or do an odd job, for cash to fulfill that need,” he explained.

As of Page Six’s reporting, the actor and his family currently reside in a campervan with a water well and a generator. (Read more from “‘Little Rascals’ star living off-the-grid in poverty as ‘Catholic extremist’ after arrest over huffing air duster cans” HERE)

How Activists Use Curriculum And Training To Embed Leftist Ideology In K–12 Schools

/0 Comments/in , /by

Activist organizations are developing curricula instructing teachers and students to be skeptical toward claims of antisemitism and sympathetic to pro-Palestinian causes, documents show.

Two pro-Palestinian organizations, Participatory Action Research Center for Organizing (PARCEO) and Project48, orchestrate programs and disseminate materials that blame “white nationalism” for antisemitism and ask participants to consider the “bad habit” of whiteness, documents obtained by Defending Education (DE) and shared exclusively with the Daily Caller News Foundation show. The activist programs are already finding their way into schools.

PARCEO “is a research, resource and education center” that partners with groups and institutions focusing on “educational justice; racial justice; workers’ rights; gender justice; challenging Islamophobia; immigrant rights; health and food justice, and more.” Project48 “was created to center Palestinians in the telling of their own history” and works to provide “educational material, eyewitness testimonies, images, videos and artifacts” to teach about “the ongoing Palestinian struggle against colonial erasure and the return of refugees to their ancestral lands.”

Both organizations have benefited from large, direct grants from Soros-linked Open Society foundations.

The two groups joined forces to create the Palestinian Nakba Curriculum, using the Arabic word for “Catastrophe” to refer to “the creation of Israel in 1948” and the following territorial struggle. The curriculum is meant to be used for “individual classes, for semester-long learning, as theme-specific modules, for presentations, and for workshops and webinars” and touches on topics such as “Settler Colonialism, Zionism, Refugees and Right of Return,” according to the Project48 website.

This Common Condition Could Hide an Early Cancer Warning

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .A new study suggests a common eye condition could be quietly masking one of the only early warning signs of bladder cancer — the 10th leading cause of cancer deaths in the US.

Researchers found people with the visual impairment were more likely to be diagnosed at later stages, when the disease is harder to treat and survival odds nosedive.

“I’m hopeful that this study raises some awareness, not only for patients with color blindness, but for our colleagues who see these patients,” Dr. Ehsan Rahimy, adjunct clinical associate professor of ophthalmology at Stanford Medicine and senior author of the study, said in a news release. . .

It can be caused by several factors, but it’s most often the result of inherited genetic mutations that affect the retina’s light-sensitive cones. . .

The most common form of color blindness makes it difficult to distinguish between red and green — which past research shows can make it harder to detect blood in the urine. (Read more from “This Common Condition Could Hide an Early Cancer Warning” HERE)

Former 911 Responder Shares Horror Stories Of Mail-Order Abortions

/3 Comments/in , /by

When the phone rings at 2:00 a.m., the voice on the other end is rarely calm. As a former 911 dispatcher, I spent years trained to be the steady anchor in someone’s darkest hour. But nothing in my emergency services career prepared me for the harrowing calls I field now on an abortion pill help line.

I speak every day with women and girls in moments of fear, pain, and confusion — often in the middle of the night, when no one else is willing to answer the phone. Over the past year, I have noticed a troubling pattern that should concern anyone who cares about women’s health, parental responsibility, and basic medical ethics.

The number of calls from women related to chemical abortions is increasing, as is the confusion. Women ask whether the amount of blood they’re losing is normal. They aren’t sure if they took the pills correctly, or at the right time, or in the right dose. Many don’t know how many weeks pregnant they are. They were told this would be simple, private, and empowering. In reality, it is often chaotic and isolating. . .

“Jenny” was 17 years old when she told the boy she’d known since she was 12 that she was pregnant. His response was blunt: get an abortion. When she told him she couldn’t afford the pills, he suggested she drink rubbing alcohol. When she refused, he blocked her number.

Jenny turned to her mother. Still a minor and financially dependent, she hoped for protection or guidance. Instead, she was told they couldn’t afford a baby. Her mother ordered abortion drugs online. (Read more from “Former 911 Responder Shares Horror Stories Of Mail-Order Abortions” HERE)

Parents Of Man Killed By Border Patrol In Minneapolis Release Statement

/1 Comment/in , , /by

The parents of Alex Pretti released a statement late Saturday, hours after Border Patrol agents fatally shot the 37-year-old Minneapolis man the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said was armed and looked about to “massacre law enforcement.”

Michael and Susan Pretti said that their deceased adult son was a “good man” and called on the public to “[p]lease get the truth out about” him in their statement first shared with KARE, a Minneapolis-based NBC affiliate. The Prettis also claimed Alex Pretti was “clearly not holding a gun” when he was “attacked” by “[President Donald] Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] thugs,” and blasted the Trump administration for telling “sickening lies” about him.

“We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA [Veterans Affairs] hospital,” the Pretti statement continues. “Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly.”

Alex Pretti’s parents claimed their son’s “last thought and act was to protect a woman,” explaining that at the time he was shot and killed, he had “his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.”

DHS, in a Saturday afternoon post to X, shared a photograph of a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun it claimed the man later identified as Pretti had on him when he approached federal agents that morning. The agency also claimed Pretti had on him “2 magazines and no ID.”

Trump Says Administration Is ‘Reviewing Everything’ About Fatal Shooting of Alex Pretti, Says Fed Agents Will Leave Minneapolis ‘At Some Point’

/4 Comments/in , , /by

President Trump said his administration is reviewing the fatal shooting of an armed ICU nurse who was protesting ICE in Minneapolis before Border Patrol agents shot him dead in the street.

“We’re looking, we’re reviewing everything and will come out with a determination,” Trump told the Wall Street Journal in a five-minute phone call Sunday night, without providing his own ruling on whether the actions of the officer who shot the anti-ICE protester were justified.

“I don’t like any shooting. I don’t like it,” Trump added during the call. “But I don’t like it when somebody goes into a protest and he’s got a very powerful, fully loaded gun with two magazines loaded up with bullets also. That doesn’t play good either.”

The slain protester, 37-year-old Alex Pretti, was carrying a loaded pistol during the fatal confrontation with federal agents. He had a concealed carry permit, according to Minnesota officials.

Trump called Pretti’s gun — a Sig Sauer P320 9mm pistol — a “very dangerous gun, a dangerous and unpredictable gun. It’s a gun that goes off when people don’t know it.” (Read more from “Trump Says Administration Is ‘Reviewing Everything’ About Fatal Shooting of Alex Pretti, Says Fed Agents Will Leave Minneapolis ‘At Some Point’” HERE)

No. 1 Cancer Killer for People Under 50 Has Gotten Worse Since 1990 — Here’s Your ‘Best Tool’ for Beating It

/3 Comments/in , , /by

Cancer deaths are falling among young Americans — except for one terrifying outlier.

Over the past 30 years, it has surged to become the top cancer killer of people under 50, overtaking breast, lung and brain cancers, as well as leukemia, a new analysis found.

“It is clear that this can no longer be called an old person’s disease,” Dr. Ahmedin Jemal, a senior author of the study and a top official at the American Cancer Society, said in a statement.

In the study, researchers analyzed more than 1.2 million deaths and found that overall cancer mortality in Americans under 50 dropped 44% between 1990 and 2023.

The decline was driven by sharp drops in four of the five leading cancer killers, which fell by as much as 6% annually.

Only one increased: colorectal cancer, which rose 1.1% each year over the past three decades, climbing from the fifth most common cancer death to first place. (Read more from “No. 1 Cancer Killer for People Under 50 Has Gotten Worse Since 1990 — Here’s Your ‘Best Tool’ for Beating It” HERE)

Tennessee husband and now-former church deacon has been criminally charged after his wife, who was holding his phone during a medical procedure, allegedly discovered videos of an underage babysitter in their bathroom, police said.

Christopher Thomas Collins, 42, was arrested Jan. 14 after police reportedly found explicit content on his cell phone. Collins is being detained on a $50,000 bond, according to Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office records.

Citing the police affidavit, WTVC-TV reported that Collins handed his phone over to his wife while he was undergoing a medical procedure.

Collins’ wife suspected her husband of cheating, so she searched his phone for evidence of infidelity, according to the affidavit.

But the wife found explicit videos and a photo of the couple’s former babysitter inside a hidden folder in the photo gallery, the affidavit said. (Read more from “Wife Suspects Her Church Deacon Husband of Cheating — Then She Uncovers Secret Bathroom Videos That Trigger Police Search” HERE)
