A part-time police officer has reportedly been charged for allegedly abusing his girlfriend’s young children with a Taser-like weapon.
Kevin McCann, 47, of Lawrence Township, Ohio, has been charged with two counts of felonious assault and two counts of felony child endangering. McCann allegedly used a Taser-like weapon this on Christina Robinson’s 3-year-old daughter and 2-year-old son, the Canton Repository reports.
Authorities do not believe McCann shocked the children and they do not believe the weapon he allegedly used in this incident was given to him as part of his official duties, according to the newspaper.
Robinson, 22, also of Lawrence Township, is charged with four counts of felony child endangering.
Both suspects were arraigned Wednesday and denied all charges. They remain in the Stark County Jail with bond set at $500,000.
The two children in question and a younger sibling have been placed with a relative with supervision provided by the Stark County Department of Job and Family Services, the newspaper reports.
Hurricane, Meredith and Vicky the intern decided to take a little road trip to Tiger Wood’s house in Orlando. At first MJ thought Fester would be funny to dress in drag but he knew Meredith would get more press.
Once they arrived Meredith hopped out of the car and ran out in her bikini and heels holding up a sign that said ‘Tiger – They Offered Me $500,000 – I’m Keeping My Mouth Shut!’ Security tried to kick her off the property but she refused to move so they called the police. Traffic was slowed down at least a quarter of a mile each way with passengers taking pictures and laughing as they drove by.
Meredith continued to scream, ‘’He’s Not a Tiger He’s A Cheetah!’’ to all the cars as they drove but finally had to leave when they were pulling cars over and issuing tickets to everyone that stopped.

Police Used Taser on 10-Year-Old Girl in Arkansas
OZARK, Ark. (AP) — Ozark Police Chief Jim Noggle says one of his officers used a Taser on a 10-year-old girl who was combative when the officer tried to get the her into a patrol car to be taken to a youth shelter. Read more here.
In Lincoln Park, Michigan, a 17-year-old called 911 when her father (recovering at home from brain surgery) had a seizure. Her first call didn’t go through, so the panicked girl hung up and tried again. While the phone was still ringing, the girl said “what the #.” Apparently 911 calls are recorded even while the phone is ringing, so the police officer heard her say it. When the officer answered the call, he was only interested in the fact that the girl said “fuck” and wouldn’t help.
Photographer detained for taking photos of the LA subway system
By David Markland
November 8th, 2009 @ 10:25 PM Law Enforcement, Mass TransitThe photographer “Discarted” has gone done it again and threatened national security by violating the laws of the MTA and taking photos of the Los Angeles subway system that he could very likely end up selling to Al Qaeda. Seems perfectly reasonable that he be detained by LA Sheriffs, right?
Except that there is no rule prohibiting public photography in Los Angeles subway systems. And any detainment would require a reasonable suspicion of the subject having committed a crime… which may have occurred, but the only unusual activity the Sheriff ever cites is Discarted’s act of taking photos.
After handcuffing Discarted, the sheriff doing most of the talking, Officer Richard Gylfie, is heard threating threatening to put him the FBI’s “hit list” and will be flagged and detained before boarding planes, trains, or other forms of transportation where an ID is checked. And why? Apparently for not shivering in fear to Gylfie’s demands to tell him why he’s taking photos… or maybe I’m missing something.
As if it needs repeating, photography is allowed in public spaces, including the subway system. Its a shame that the same people who we pay to enforce our laws are blatantly ignorant of this, and instead abuse the power that we bestow upon them to harass and intimidate.
