Investigators believe a serial rapist has attacked at least eight women in one Dallas neighborhood since June, including six in the past two weeks, police said Wednesday.
The latest victim came forward Wednesday to report she was attacked on Aug. 28 in the same area, which is near downtown Dallas and next to the southeastern edge of Fair Park, where the state fair will open later this month.
In addition to their location, the attacks share several similarities, police said in a statement. The assailant in each was a black man in his mid-20s to early 30s who was armed with a handgun. He wore shorts and a T-shirt, masked his face using various types of cloth and in some cases, had on prescription glasses. The attacker approached his victims, forced them to secluded areas nearby, and then robbed and sexually assaulted them.

While the trial of Boston mobster James “Whitey” Bulger showed that he committed horrific crimes, testimony from witnesses also revealed a stunning degree of corruption in the U.S. Department of Justice that enabled the man who was eventually labeled as the FBI’s most wanted fugitive to operate in the city for years, a juror said.
Janet Uhlar-Tinney, a pediatric nurse and fiction writer from Cape Cod, is one of the 12 jurors who convicted Bulger. She feels the trial was tainted because of government corruption, including an FBI agent who leaked to Bulger details of an investigation targeting the mobster and who eventually tipped him off that he was about to be indicted – causing the mob boss to go on the run for more than 16 years until he was captured in California in 2011.
“He was a bad, bad man, but I’m just as stunned … I’m just as stunned by the corruption in government to get him in that courtroom,” Uhlar-Tinney said following the 2-month trial.

In July 2012, Fighters loyal to embattled Syrian president Bashar al-Assad launched a full-scale assault to recapture the northern city of Aleppo, which had fallen into rebel hands. In a banner headline, pro-government newspaper Al Watan predicted the fight would be the “mother of all battles” for the future of Syria. A little over a year later, that harrowing prediction has mostly come true.
Much of Syria’s most-populous city now lies in ruin, buildings and lives torn apart by a seemingly endless barrage of missiles, bombs, mortars, and tank shells. In a series of new satellite images, Amnesty International offers a glimpse into the extent of the destruction brought on by a year of fighting between government troops and opposition forces.

A soldier who was repeatedly shot during the Fort Hood shooting rampage says he played dead before realizing the gunman might notice he was sweating.
Staff Sgt. Alonzo Lunsford testified Tuesday during the opening day of the trial for Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who is accused of killing 13 people.
Alonzo told jurors he panicked when he saw Hasan was holding a weapon inside a building where soldiers were preparing to deploy in November 2009.
Alonzo says he tried to appear dead after being shot, then later decided to flee because, “dead men don’t sweat.”
He says soldiers were trying to push their way out of a double-door exit, but one door was locked shut, so it created a bottleneck.

The suicide of a young British teen is renewing awareness of cyberbullying, with parents and anti-bullying advocates calling for an end to anonymous online harassment.
Fourteen-year-old Hannah Smith, of Lutterworth, Leicestershire, England, was found hanged in her bedroom on Friday, according to local site the Leicester Mercury. Her body was reportedly discovered by her older sister.
A police spokesperson told the site that an investigation was ongoing, but that the “death is not being treated as suspicious and a file is being prepared for the coroner.”
In the weeks leading up to her death, Smith reportedly had been subjected to cruel taunts and insults on Ask.fm, a question-and-answer social networking site that allows anonymous participation and boasts 60 million users, around 30 million of them minors, according to The Guardian.

If you paid a bribe sometime in the last year, you are not alone. According to a new survey by corruption watchdog Transparency International, more than a quarter of people worldwide paid a bribe when dealing with public services in the past 12 months.
Transparency International’s 2013 Global Corruption Barometer is based on interviews with 114,270 people in 107 countries. It uses a public opinion survey to estimate the prevalence of corruption across national institutions worldwide.
The report concludes that although bribery is a global problem, it is not an equally distributed one.
According to the report, less than 5 percent of respondents in 16 countries admitted to giving bribes, while more than half of the people surveyed in 14 other countries reported paying off officials. Of those 14 countries, 11 are located in Africa. They include post-Gaddafi Libya, where 62 percent of respondents reported having paid up, and Liberia, where an astonishing 75 percent slipped money to officials. In Kenya, where legislators recently tried to raise their salary to 84 times that of the average Kenyan, 70 percent of those surveyed reported giving bribes.

The military’s highest court overturned a murder conviction Wednesday against a Camp Pendleton Marine in one of the most significant cases against American troops from the Iraq war.
The Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces threw out the conviction of Sgt. Lawrence Hutchins III of Plymouth, Mass., who has served about half of his 11-year sentence.
According to the ruling posted on the court’s website, the judges agreed with Hutchins, who claimed his constitutional rights were violated when he was held in solitary confinement without access to a lawyer for seven days during his 2006 interrogation in Iraq.
The decision is seen as a major blow to the military’s prosecution of Iraqi war crimes.
Hutchins led an eight-man squad accused of kidnapping an Iraqi man from his home in April 2006, marching him to a ditch and shooting him to death in the village of Hamdania.

A Philadelphia man charged with putting heroin and methadone in his infant son’s bottle to quiet him, but instead killing him, was convicted Tuesday of third-degree murder.
Orlando Rosado, 46, did not testify at the one-day trial, but the defense said Rosado accidentally put the drugs in the baby’s 3 a.m. bottle during a heroin relapse. His son, Christopher, died two days shy of his first birthday in May 2012.
Common Pleas Judge Barbara McDermott said she based her verdict in the nonjury trial partly on Rosado’s conduct afterward, when he gave changing statements to police, including an attempt to blame the death on his 5-year-old daughter.
“I was appalled when I heard that,” McDermott said.
Yet McDermott says she knows Rosado regrets his actions. He told police his son was “his heart and soul.”

A man apparently committed suicide just moments after he was convicted of sodomizing a 14-year-old girl.
A coroner’s report and witness accounts indicate that Steve Parsons, 48, of Maryville, Mo., swallowed a cyanide pill inside the courtroom on Thursday just after a jury pronounced him guilty of statutory sodomy, according to KCTV. Minutes later, he was “convulsing” and was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.
“It’s not common to see someone just fall over dead in the courtroom even though they’ve just been found guilty of a crime,” Sheriff Darrin White, who was in the courtroom when the verdict was read, told Fox4KC.
Parsons placed an overnight delivery of cyanide on June 25, authorities told the St Joseph Post.

Mexican authorities have arrested a former university professor who was on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list in the resort city of Playa del Carmen.
Prosecutor Gaspar Armando Garcia Torres said Walter Lee Williams, 64, is wanted on charges of sexual exploitation of children and traveling abroad for the purpose of engaging in sexual acts with children.
Garcia said Williams was captured late Tuesday while drinking coffee near a park in the Caribbean beach town.
“This person is wanted by the FBI because he is linked to the sexual exploitation of children,” Garcia told reporters.
He said it wasn’t clear how long Williams had been living in Playa del Carmen and that the fugitive also had an address in nearby Cancun, where he was taken and turned over to Mexican immigration officials.
