At least six people have been detained following the release of a distressing video which appears to show a half-naked inmate being pinned to a table and tortured by guards at a Russian jail. The graphic 10-minute-long was released by Russia’s Novaya Gazeta newspaper on Friday. The paper claims that the gruesome incident took place in a jail in the central Russian city of Yaroslavl back in June 2017. The video caught attention of the Russia’s Investigative Committee which launched a probe into the case. On Monday the committee confirmed that at least six people have been detained so far. The disturbing footage allegedly shows a dozen officers from the Federal Penitentiary Service beating a prisoner, who is pinned down on a table as he screams in pain, pleading with the guards to stop. Identified as Evgeny Makarov by Novaya Gazeta, the inmate allegedly chokes and loses consciousness several times. The inmate is hit on his calves and heels with rubber batons and fists. One of the men in the footage is seen pouring water from a bucket over the prisoner’s head. The graphic footage was provided to the paper by lawyers of the Public Verdict Foundation, a human rights group which now represents Makarov. In the meantime, the prisoner’s lawyer, Irina Biryukova, appealed for state protection following threats, according to the Public Verdict Foundation on Monday. In her letter to the Investigative Committee chief, Alexander Bastrykin, Biryukova claimed that some guards from the video threatened to take revenge against the inmate’s lawyer.

A 4-year-old boy accidentally shot and killed his 2-year-old cousin Friday at a home in Southern California and deputies arrested the victim’s grandfather for allegedly leaving the gun where the kids could find it, authorities said. The girl died at a hospital shortly after the mid-morning shooting in the Muscoy area, east of Los Angeles, according to San Bernardino County sheriff’s spokeswoman Cindy Bachman. Cesar Lopez, 53, was taken into custody later in the day on suspicion of child endangerment and being a felon in possession of a firearm, the department said. It wasn’t immediately known if he has an attorney. The boy got hold of the gun and accidentally fired it, striking his cousin, officials said. Investigators determined Lopez “left the gun in an area that was accessible to the children,” a department statement said. Adults were home at the time of the accident, Bachman said. Both children lived at the house.

Authorities say a malnourished 15-year-old Oklahoma boy who survived by eating sticks, leaves and grass has been found living in a barn, and four members of his family have been arrested for child neglect. The Oklahoman reported Thursday that Lincoln County Assistant District Attorney Adam Panter said the boy weighed 80 pounds July 12, when he was found sharing the barn with goats, rabbits and chickens. The teen is hospitalized. The boy’s name and condition haven’t been released. Panter says he could have died without medical attention. A spokeswoman for the state Department of Human Services declined to comment on the case. Panter says the boy’s father, stepmother and two older brothers have been arrested on child neglect warrants. Court records don’t indicate formal charges have been filed. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Police say an Iowa man and his girlfriend tortured the man’s 8-year-old son for months by locking him in a basement enclosure, withholding food and making him endure dog bites. The Hardin County Attorney’s Office said Wednesday that kidnapping charges had been filed against 39-year-old Traci Lynn Tyler and 30-year-old Alex Craig Shadlow, both of Ackley. An arrest affidavit says the abuse occurred between July and September 2017. Investigators allege the boy was locked for at least nine hours a day in an enclosed 6-foot-square space under the basement stairs, where he slept on concrete with no bedding and had no access to a bathroom. Police say Tyler also urged her dog to attack the boy, which left scars on his back and limbs. Authorities say the boy’s school alerted investigators to the abuse. The couple’s attorneys didn’t return phone messages Thursday.

Sure he can. Depraved indifference... his reckless action (driving drunk, especially with a child in the car) led to the circumstances that led to her death.

Let ’er rip. Judging by the four-inch strip of accidental air conditioning running down the back of his pale blue trousers, that was TV journalist Thomas Roberts’ approach as he began work Monday as the evening anchor at Atlanta’s CBS affiliate, CBS46. He reported the news on-air, then let viewers know what was going on below the anchor desk on Instagram. “Behind the scenes...first day of my NEW job @cbs46 and suit pants split right before first show. Luckily@sharonreedcbs46 captured it for reporting purposes,” he posted alongside a snap of his bum. “What will day 2 bring?,” the handsome newshound added. “Stay tuned … but first @suitsupply cya this morning!!” Whatever it brings, Roberts has proven resilient in his career that began in local markets including San Diego. He ended a seven-year-stint at NBC News last November. “If you don’t get mad it’s a sign of good luck, right?,” Roberts asked about the unintentional backside vent. That could be. By Tuesday afternoon, the post had been liked more than 2,200 times.

A sick family raped children during a 30-year campaign of abuse branded the “worst ever case of its kind” by a judge. Twisted Antony Potts and three members of his family carried out a string of child abuse offenses over the course of three decades. The 49-year-old was described as a “deeply depraved man” as he was jailed for life at Birmingham Crown Court. He was convicted of 13 counts of rape, three counts of sexual assault and nine counts of inciting a child to perform a sexual act and cruelty. Antony was joined in the docket by his dad Keith Potts, who was caged for eight years alongside his wife Julie, both for child cruelty. Antony’s wife Elaine and family friend Joanne Hoye were also both jailed for four years after pleading guilty to neglect. Brother Joshua Potts admitted to multiple counts of rape and sexual assault against children, while his sibling Nathan, 26, was jailed for 16 years for two counts of rape of a child, four counts of sexual assault, inciting a child to engage in sexual activity and sex with another adult. Police were once again called but it was decided there was insufficient evidence to bring charges. However, the case was reopened in January 2016 when a fifth victim came forward. The full extent of the abuse began to unravel and a further three victims were identified – meaning the vile family could be brought to trial. Jurors were read emotional victim impact statements giving harrowing details of how the victims were “groomed and brainwashed” by their abusers. One said the abuse had a “major impact” on her life and she felt she was “let down as a child” by the police. She also said she has suffered from “constant and daily panic attacks,” has post-traumatic stress disorder and has “reduced self-worth.” Another victim said: “I want Antony to go to prison all his life so he can’t hurt anyone else.” Joshua Potts will be sentenced in August.

Karma, like Ann Coulter, can be a bitch: LA CROSSE, Wis. — A La Crosse County man charged in a snowmobile crash that killed his girlfriend has died in an all-terrain vehicle crash in northern Wisconsin. Thirty-one-year-old John Marshall, of Brice Prairie, died Saturday in a crash on the north side of Birch Lake in the Town of Edgewater. Marshall was charged with homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle in a January 2016 crash that killed 27-year-old Miranda Roellich in the Town of Onalaska. The La Crosse Tribune says a La Crosse County judge dismissed the charges after finding that prosecutors didn’t have enough evidence to substantiate them. Marshall was later charged with a misdemeanor in his girlfriend’s death and pleaded guilty. He served 60 days of house arrest.

A South Dakota woman accused of beating her 2-year-old son to death after he wet his bed has been sentenced to 40 years in federal prison. Thirty-year-old Katrina Shangreaux, of Porcupine on the Pine Ridge Reservation, pleaded guilty in Marchto second-degree murder in the July 2016 death of 2-year-old Kylen Shangreaux. She was sentenced Tuesday. The Rapid City Journal reports that Shangreaux admitted assaulting the toddler with a studded belt. She also threw him to the ground, kicked him in the abdomen and head, and bit him several times. Shangreaux’s mother, Sonya Dubray, has pleaded not guilty to being an accessory and hindering the investigation. The boy’s father is serving time in federal prison for abuse and neglect of a son with a different woman.

Astronomers often have to look very, very carefully for something that they believe exists in a certain spot in space. Whether that be an exoplanet orbiting a distant star or perhaps a still-unseen planet lurking at the edge of the solar system, it’s a challenging endeavor. But every so often, the planets seem to align (no pun intended) and a new discovery just falls right into their laps. That seems to be what happened to astronomers working at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile, where a planned survey of trans-Neptunian objects was interrupted by Jupiter. The massive gas giant began muscling in on the telescope’s line of sight and in doing so, revealed a few secrets of its own. Rather than delay their work, the researchers decided to pivot to studying moons of Jupiter that had flown into their gaze. In doing so, the scientists noticed not one, not two, but a full 12 totally new moons whose orbits hadn’t yet been documented, bringing the total number of the planet’s moons up to a whopping 79. The scientists note that they were able to discover these new moons thanks to the lower detection threshold of the telescope. “We were able to go a little bit fainter than anyone has been able to go in the past,” Scott Sheppard of Carnegie Institution for Science told the Washington Post, “That’s why we were able to find these new moons.” These new moons aren’t exactly record-breakers in terms of size. They’re quite small, measuring 2 miles in diameter at the most, and they orbit at a greater distance than many of the already-documented moons of Jupiter. This isn’t likely to be the last new moons that we hear about coming from the gas giant, and astronomers believe there are still plenty of smaller satellites that remain undetected. It’s believed that many of the tiny moons around Jupiter were once much larger, having broken up over time due to the stress of gravity or perhaps even collisions with each other, resulting in the smaller objects we see today.

Anglers catch terrifying ‘frankenfish’ in Pennsylvania Young Frankenfish? (what knockers!) Attention, anglers in Pennsylvania: A northern snakehead, also known as “frankenfish,” was found recently in Octoraro Creek in Little Britain Township. A frankenfish is an aggressive species that typically eats other fish, according to FOX43. In fact, as northern snakeheads become adults, “they become voracious predators, feeding on other fishes, crustaceans, frogs, small reptiles and sometimes birds and small mammals,” according to the US Geological Survey. “Should snakeheads become established in North American ecosystems, their predatory behavior could drastically disrupt food webs and ecological conditions, thus forever changing native aquatic systems by modifying the array of native species,” the agency warned. One expert with the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission’s Bureau of Fisheriesexpressed concern about the arrival of the frankenfish in Lancaster County. “They’re an aggressive predator,” the director for the Bureau of Fisheries, Andy Shields, told the news station. He added that frankenfish, which are native to parts of Asia and Africa but were imported legally until 2004, according to National Geographic, “are known to guard their young and so any fish that guards its young usually has a high rate of successful reproduction.” “We don’t really know what their effect or impact is in Pennsylvania other than we have them in places where we haven’t and people catch them,” Shields continued. Many states have laws that prohibit fishermen from keeping live snakeheads, according to National Geographic. The state Fish & Boat commission asks anglers who think they caught a frankenfish to report it.

Another candidate for father of the year: A brave 7-year-old girl who survived an alleged drunk driving crash and tried to find help for her incapacitated father was struck and killed by another vehicle while crossing I-94 in search of help in Romulus, Mich., early Sunday morning. The incident occurred at around 3 a.m. on Sunday where Michigan State Police say the girl’s father was involved in a drunk driving crash. After the crash, the 7-year-old, identified as DeSandra Thomas, feared that her father was dead, so she left the vehicle, grabbed her things and tried to cross the freeway. “There is evidence where you could see that she walked away, climbed over the fence and walked her way across I-94,” Lt. Michael Shaw said according to Click on Detroit. As DeSandra walked along the freeway, she texted 911 telling police that her father was hurt, maybe dead and that she needed help. Around the same time, Michigan State Police got a call from a motorist who said that she had hit a pedestrian on the I-94. Troopers did not see any visible damage on the woman’s car but started looking for a victim. “They went out there with their flashlights, did everything they could, searched around the area but couldn’t find anything,” Shaw said. The woman was allowed to leave. However, around the same time, Romulus officers were investigating DeSandra’s father’s crash around a mile and a half away. “He was very intoxicated from what they could tell from the scene. They had to help him out of the vehicle,” said Shaw. “He wasn’t giving any information. Nothing indicating that anyone else was in the vehicle at the time.” Police believe that the father, who remains unidentified, lost control of his van, hitting an abandoned vehicle and driving off the freeway into a fenced area. DeSandra’s body was discovered in the median about a mile away from where her father crashed. “We have a father that is in custody. His daughter is gone,” Shaw added. “The mom’s aware her daughter is gone. This woman will be affected for the rest of her life.” “This poor child, 7-years old doesn’t get to live the rest of her life, because of a decision that an adult made,” Shaw told Fox2Detroit. Shaw doesn’t expect the female driver who came forward to be charged in DeSandra’s death. “You got a poor lady that was just driving down 94 and she is going to have to live with the fact that she struck a child the rest of her life,” Shaw said. DeSandra’s father, however, was taken into police custody and charges are pending. Meanwhile, DeSandra’s mother, who was at work when she got the news, is dealing with the shock of losing her child. “It’s a void that will never be filled, never be filled,” Sandria Burts told Fox2Detroit. “Anybody that she touched she was a blessing to them.” “They say my daughter tried to save her father, she ran to get some help for her daddy,” Burts added, declining to comment on reports that her ex-husband had been drinking when the vehicle he was in crashed. Instead, Burts wanted to focus on her daughter, whom she described as “beautiful” and “helpful.” Burts told Fox2Detroit that she had waited 20 years to have her daughter after being told again and again that she couldn’t have children of her own. “They told me I could not have no kids. I became a foster mother, then I adopted my two children and I got pregnant with DeSandra,” she recalled. DeSandra’s family has set up a GoFundMe to help with the funeral and other expenses. “DeSandra was a hero and at such a tender age she was selfless. She didn’t care about herself, she was racing against time to save her father as anyone with a heart of gold would have. In this difficult we, the family, ask for anything that can help put this beautiful baby to rest properly and allow her mother to properly mourn without the worry of anything financial,” the GoFundMe description read.

She read for the part of Dorothy Zbornak, but THANK GOD didn't get it.

Heat wave exposes ancient structures across the UK By James Rogers, Fox News Crop marks of a large prehistoric enclosure in the Vale of Glamorgan, with the faint footings of a probable Roman villa within. The current heat wave in the British Isles has revealed a host of long-hidden historical sites that have suddenly become visible through the parched earth. In Wales, for example, a number of archaeological sites have suddenly appeared in fields of ripening crops and rain-starved grassland. Viewed from the air, prehistoric enclosures, Roman buildings and ancient cemeteries have become visible across the country. “This is an exceptional drought, the like of which Wales hasn’t seen for 40 years,” Dr. Toby Driver, senior aerial investigator for the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales, told Fox News via email. “In a normal summer hunting for cropmarks from a light aircraft, different regions of Wales show more marks than others. In 2018, the entire country from north to south is showing incredible new archaeological sites.” Experts, however, have to work quickly. “The urgent work is now: taking the air photos before the rain washes away the drought,” Driver explained. “The most important discoveries are then circulated quickly to experts in Wales for their opinion, while the new photographs are carefully organized and permanently archived.” The eerie outlines of long-vanished structures and monuments are showing up across the British Isles. In Lancashire in northern England, for example, a “ghost garden” has appeared in the grounds of Gawthorpe Hall, which dates back to the 17th century. Lancashire County Council ✔@LancashireCC Amazing ghost garden revealed at #Gawthorpe Hall . Visit before it rains! http://fal.cn/ylkU As a result of the drought, and various types of soil drying at different rates, the layout of an Italianate-style garden has emerged at the front of the hall, which has been dubbed the “Downton of the North.” The garden, redesigned in the 1850s, was removed in 1946, according to the Lancashire County Council. “The recent hot weather has certainly unveiled an historic gem,” Lancashire County Councillor Peter Buckley said in a statement. Other sites visible in England include a “phantom mansion” in Nottinghamshire and the outline of a World War II airfield in Hampshire, the BBC reports. In Ireland, aerial footage taken by a drone showed the remains of a previously unknown “henge” or enclosure, at Brú Na Bóinne, a World Heritage site in County Meath. The find was described as “simply unparalleled” by Irish Government Minister Josepha Madigan, the Irish Times reports. In another project at Brú Na Bóinne, archaeologists recently discovered an incredible 5,500-year-old tomb.
