Elderly Amish Man Caught on Film With Prostitute, Blackmailed
When a 75-year-old Amish widower slept with a prostitute, he -- we feel certain -- felt pretty bad about it the next morning. As if that guilt weren't enough for the old man, the prostitute and her boyfriend demanded $67,000 from him, claiming that they had filmed the scene with wall-mounted cameras and would upload the recording to the Internet. The pair was later arrested and, we can only imagine, the Amish man abhorred technology more than ever.
Bank Robber Gets Away With the Help of Craiglist
In October, a bank robber -- wearing a safety vest, blue shirt, face mask and goggles -- eluded police with the help of Craiglist. Just outside the bank, while the robbery was in progress, stood a group of men who were responding to a Craiglist day labor opportunity. As the advertisement required, they were all wearing safety vests, blue shirts, face masks and goggles.
Nude New Zealander Arrested After Responding to Fake Sexy Text Message
Late in 2007, a Wellington, New Zealand man received a racy text message from two anonymous "ladies," giving him only an address and a request that he show up naked. Well, he indeed showed up naked... at the home of one appalled, unsuspecting New Zealander. Both the nude Romeo and the sadistic texter were arrested, though neither were prosecuted.
Fake Craiglist Ad Costs Man Most of What He Owns
Last Spring, a post appeared on an Oregon Craigslist board stating that the owner of a specific house was leaving all of his worldly possessions (still in said house) to whoever wanted them. When homeowner Robert Salisbury rushed home -- on a tip from a woman suspicious about the offer of a free horse -- he found his house being ransacked by 30 strangers. We suggest he take that horse and collect some vengeance Clint Eastwood-style.
17-Year-Old Jailed for Stealing Virtual 'Furniture'
When a 17-year-old Dutch boy hacked into several accounts on the Second Life-style site 'Habbo' in 2007, the the law got involved. The boy was discovered to have stolen $5,800 worth of virtual furniture and knick-knacks. Apparently, crime -- whether actual or virtual -- does not pay.
Phishers Going After Your Phones in New 'Vishing' Trend
Over the past year, sneaky spammers have begun to forsake the worn-out territory of e-mail in favor of cell phones' fertile frontier. The result? "Vishing." Get it? Voice mail phishing. It might be more ominous if it didn't sound like a James Bond villain saying, "Wishing."
Burglars Break Into Restaurant, Steal HDTV, Leave Money / Food Behind
Around Halloween of last year, a truckload of thieves drove into -- that's right, into -- a Pennsylvania Mexican restaurant, where they -- apparently uninterested in the cash register -- stole a mid-grade 47-inch HDTV and fled the scene. We've all heard about how this generation is lacking in ambition, but this generation's thieves, too?

I'm wondering who taught her how to operate a video camera and a PC, obviously she is not smart enough to keep her older husband happy enough to keep her around,anymore.She probably never even cooked him a decent meal or showed him how much she loved him and not just his bank account and his status.Get on with your life, you'll be able to fool some other dummy with bucks into marrying you.Just pretend to love him a little better, you are an actress,right;get busy now and keep doing the you tube stuff,you are almost famous now and there are already people out there who want you and some have money too.

Still, I have no idea why she is allowed to aire her viewpoint about her divorce on YouTube while men face SEVERE sanctions by the courts for doing far less in a blog!! If anyone knows why ANYTHING a woman does is A-Okay whereas men face punishment, please tell me. Email at skrr123@aol.com.

You really should back up a statement like that with facts. It comes off as sour grapes. The expectations for men and women have always been different, and history shows that men have fared far better than women. In divorce situations, women have historically been more vulnerable and courts have tried to even things out. Honestly, do you really want that waaaaa to be your identity? Playing the victim is not attractive, whether you are male OR female.

boy have you hit the nail on the head......women can do anything or be anything they want (including sex offenders that rape kids who are 14 years old) because of the wimpy, no backbone male judges out there...these judges need to be ousted, and quickly.....here's how they think.....".oh no, there must be some reason she had sex with him......let's see what excuse i can come up with.....cause sher's to pretty to send to prison"".......it's nauseating........these judges should be in the cell next to them......

Divorce is like cancer -- earthshakingly horrible. It's not worse because you are rich -- it's actually worse when you are poor. You can rant and rave all you like but no one really wants to hear it, because most people have been through worse than that. In the end, you need to pick yourself up and move on, so why waste the years getting to that point? Just accept that your life has a new reality and get on with it. No one is ENTITLED to another person -- not even when you are married. You are most certainly never entitled to someone else's money. And guess what -- marriage is only forever about half of the time. And most of those people are not really happy in their marriage for good chunks of those years. Get past the anger and move on.

Jan, how long have you been married, or should I ask how many times. You sound like an authority on the subject. I have been married to the same woman almost 53 years, and I love her more today than I did yesterday.
Instead of looking for ways to blame each other, we look for ways to fix what ever happends to be wrong at that particular time.

This is obviouse, she knows she is not entitled to anything more than what she brought into, or added to the relationship, which is/was nothing. If anything, she owes him. She is thinking (?) that she will embarass him into giving her something. Hopefully he will sue her, although she has nothing of value. The only other explination is that she is psycho.

Booho! You put your first sob story on youtube. You got your replies and the replies you received you didn't like so your 2nd youtube is all about spanking the public for their opinons. No wonder the man is leaving you, and no wonder he made you sign a prenup. Your a selfcentered, selfish women.

Maybe you can sell your video and computer equiptment to buy a really nice tent instead of asking the public for donations. May even have something left over for a nice bbq grill.

I think we should all get together and take up a collection for Tricia so we can get her a brand new shopping cart because it sounds like she's going to need one. Maybe we can kick in enough money to buy her an air mattress and a sleeping bag too. Good luck Tricia!

Before you start throwing stone at this woman ask yourself why this old fart married her? Was it because they has so much in comman? NO! It was for her age & sex! How dare you all call her a golddigger and make him out to be a victim. To all the men on here making rude comments about this woman, how do you how she was treated? As far as I can see she is going public because she has nothing to hide. I say good for her!

ANN lol I LOVE what you said about her, especially about her trying to spank the public for criticizing her.. I wonder what she expected?
She sounds like a tart and now her rich husband is sick and tired of her selfish behavior....if she acts THIS bad on YouTube, can you imagine what life was like LIVING with her??????? Must've been pure h*ll for the old guy.
