A nurse, 52, who was driving by herself on a dark country road faces felony charges after she didn't immediately pull over for a cop because she didn't think it was a safe place to stop. DelRea Good of Portage, Indiana says that on March 23 she was charged with resisting arrest because she hit the brakes for Porter County Sheriff's Department Patrolman William Marshall about a half a mile down the road from where he asked her to halt her vehicle. Good was speeding and was driving at 54 mph in a 35 mph zone at 11:21 p.m. Charged with resisting arrest: Portage resident DelRea Good said she did not immediately pull over for the flashing lights behind her because, as a 52-year-old woman traveling alone at night on a dark county road . 'I felt I didn't do anything wrong,' Good told NWI.com. 'I got to a safe place and I told him that.' Good says that when she was ordered to pull over, she put on her emergency flashers, and waved her hand out the window to let the cop know that she was aware of his presence and that she planned to stop. She finally turned off the gas at a well-lit Kohls parking lot. Good said Marshall was enraged with her when she pulled over and said, 'What in the hell are you doing? I could arrest you for this.' Good has no previous criminal record and says that if she is convicted of a felony then she will lose her job. Marshall claims that Good was 'highly agitated and uncooperative' and said she told him, 'I don't care who you are I don't have to stop on a county road, I'm a single female.' No criminal history: DelRea Good is a nurse with no criminal history and says that is she is convicted that her job will be in jeopardy . Marshall arrested Good after she 'failed to listen to how speeding endangers other drivers.' 'I follow rules every day or people could get hurt,' Good said in reference to her nursing career. 'This could be your mom, your sister, your daughter next time.' Good even accuses the cop of bullying her on the way to the station and says he accused her of having a controlled substance, which turned out be be Advil. Good's attorney Bob Harper has argued that his client's concerns are absolutely warranted. Harper brought up a 1991 case in which a woman pulled over for a man pretending to be a cop who later attacked her. New motto: Good has decided to promote female safety by painting this on the back of her car and by assigning herself the hashtag #femalesafetymatters . Rough arrest: Good posted this photo on her Facebook showing the alleged bruises she got during the arrest . Harper then said that two years prior, Portage police issued a warning say that a man impersonating a police officer by flashing red and blue lights tried to get a woman to pull over. Portage Police Sgt. Keith Hughes said

From working late to boring marriages and just not being in love any more, there's no end to the excuses deployed by cheating spouses to get themselves off the hook. But one man has taken the art of the creative excuse to a new level and claimed his sexually transmitted disease was the result of car exhaust rather than cheating, according to his ex. 33-year-old Stuart, had, said ex-girlfriend Sophie, offered up the novel excuse when accused of cheating after discovering that she had mysteriously contracted chlamydia. Scroll down for video . Car exhaust: Stuart, pictured with 'wife' Linda, claimed to have picked up chlamydia from a car exhaust . ‘I got a test for chlamydia because I’m sure he cheated on me,’ fumed Sophie during an appearance on the Jeremy Kyle Show. ‘I’ve stopped him seeing the kids because he hasn’t paid for them, and he keeps threatening me.’ ‘He said he caught chlamydia from the car – from the exhaust pipe of the car.’ Unbeknown to Sophie, Stuart was sitting backstage with his new 'wife' Linda and burst onto the stage to deny he had ever used the bizarre excuse. 'I never said that!’ he insisted. Unfortunately, Stuart's appearance didn't quite go as planned with host Kyle unearthing a series of lies that belied his denial. Furious: The claim was made by ex-girlfriend Sophie who was outraged to find she also had the STD . Falling apart: Stuart's many falsehoods were swiftly unpicked by host Jeremy Kyle . Along with falsely claiming to be a paramedic, he also accused Sophie of attacking his new love Linda when in fact neither were true. Linda, although described by Stuart as his 'wife', turned out to be a girlfriend instead, having changed her name by deed poll rather than tying the knot. After going on an extended moan about his lack of access to his and Sophie's children, it also transpired that he had run off with his young son for five weeks. Adding to Stuart's pain was Sophie's mother Kathy who accused him of refusing to pay child support and instead proffering a £20 note every two weeks.

A Facebook post and a Craigslist ad worked together to solve the 34-year-old cold case murder of a teenage girl from Michigan who was found stabbed nine times in the woods in rural Louisiana. Carol Cole was 17 years old when she disappeared without a trace after running away from a juvenile detention center in Texas in October 1980. In January 1981, police in Bossier Parish, Louisiana, found a teenage girl stabbed nine times in the back and chest stashed under a pile of leaves in the woods out of a dirt road outside Shreveport. For 34 years, Carol's family searched in vain for the troubled teen. At the same time, detectives from Bossier Parish never stopped trying to identity the body they found mutilated in the woods. Coming together: The picture at left is the image used by Carol Cole's family on Craigslist posts across Texas and Louisiana. The image at right is a rendering of 'Bossier Doe' created for a Facebook page posted by detectives in an attempt to identify a body found in January 1981 . Carol Cole escaped from a Texas juvenile jail in October 1980 after moving from Michigan with her mother. Her remains have been found and identified after 34 years . Relieved: Carol Cole's sister, Jeanie Phelps of Kalamazoo, Michigan, (center) with Bossier Sheriff's Lt. Shannon Mack and Sgt. Dave Faulk . Now, social media has brought Carol's family and Louisiana detectives together. In February, DNA confirmed that the body in Louisiana matched missing Carol's DNA, the Detroit News reports. New attention to the case has brought forward a potential suspect, as well. John Chesson, who is already in prison for an unrelated murder, is named as a person of interest in Carol's brutal death . Carol's sister Jeanie Phelps and her friend posted Craigslist ads across Texas and Louisiana with pictures of the teen, hoping someone might recognize her. At the same time, Bossier Parish Lieutenant Shannon Mack crated a Facebook post for 'Bossier Doe' (Facebook doesn't allow Jane Doe page names). It included a digitally-rendered drawing of the victim based on her skeletal remains. Carol's family aznd Bossier detectives made a connection six days later when Bossier Parish 911 dispatcher Linda Erickson was trolling through Craigslist. Long road: Cole, from Michigan, was eventually found dead in Louisiana. She was last heard from in December 1980 and found dad a month later . These are the shoes that Carol was wearing when she was found dead. Police posted pictures of them in the hopes of jogging the memory of anyone who may have known her . Person of interest: John Chesson has been identified as a possible suspect by his own daughter. He's currently in prison for an unrelated murder . She had seen the Facebook page posted by detectives in her department. When she stumbled across Ms Phelps' Craigslist page, she realized that the rendering of Bossier Doe and picture of Carol looked remarkably similar. 'I can't explain it other than this child was meant to have an identity,' Ms Erikson tells the

Disciplining a child for doing something wrong is a tricky business. Coming up with a punishment that will teach a son or daughter not to commit the crime again but isn't harsh enough to scar them for life is tough. Often, the best schemes are ones that embarrass a child so that they are too mortified to consider falling foul of their parents again. Choosing the right punishment for a naughty child is a difficult business (picture posed by model) Others that work very well include the mind-numbingly dull chores, which drag on for a lifetime. Some cunning parents take away their child's favourite possession, like a book or a teddy, while others resort to a lengthy lecture. One thing's for sure, when most parents put their mind to disciplining their child, a trip to the naughty step starts to look like a weekend a way at Butlins. Reddit users have been comparing the most effective punishments their parents doled out when they were children and many of the schemes are both hilarious and genius . Parents often struggle to find the balance between a punishment being effective and not too harsh (picture posed by model) One Reddit user's mother used her son's naughty behaviour as a cheap means to improve her house. Every time that he stepped out of line - she set him a DIY task in her garden. Douglerful said: 'My mom loves her garden, anytime I did anything to piss her off I had to add to her garden. When I told her I was failing English back in high school my punishment was to build her a pond - it took me a solid week of work to dig it out, line it, shape it, fill it and then plant [everything] around it. 'She told me after that, that she really hated the 30 year old cherry tree in the yard and if my grades didn't improve I'd be removing it.' It turns out quite a lot of parents use their back gardens to enact punishments onto their children - another adult reminisced about how they were put to task on the lawn with some scissors. Some parents task their children with cutting the lawn with scissors (picture posed by model) Other boring tasks included making a child write a letter or essay on what they did wrong. Watchyourback said: 'My mom made me write apology letters from when I was little up into high school. Not only did I hate writing them, but she kept all of them so now they're great for a laugh.' Many mothers and fathers use their child's favourite toy or book as a way to guarantee good behaviour in the future. A user who calls themself futureblackpopstar said: 'I have an older brother that loved to annoy me. 'One day I was a bad boy so my parents took away my gameboy and put my older brother in charge of it for 2 weeks - the torment was real.' Another person's mother took a more drastic approach, removing everything from her

Summary: Choosing the right punishment for a naughty child is a difficult business . Some parents now resort to embarrassing their offspring to punish them . Tactics include DIY chores, embarrassing costumes and essay-writing .


A leading hospital has slashed cases of a deadly infection that can kill newborn babies – by defying national guidelines to offer all pregnant women a simple screening test. Government officials have repeatedly insisted there is no evidence to support universal screening for Group B Strep, known as GBS. This is despite the fact it is carried by one in four women and infects as many as 400 newborns in the UK every year. One in ten will die. Current guidelines only recommend testing women deemed to be 'at risk'. Scroll down for video . Belinda Bowman, 37, lost her daughter Lily after she contracted GBS during labour and developed meningitis and septicaemia. She was just three days old . But a programme which offered screening to all expectant women at Northwick Park NHS hospital in North-West London resulted in not a single case of the bacteria spreading to infants among those who were tested and subsequently treated with antibiotics. The only recorded cases during the 12-month programme affected babies of women who had not agreed to be tested. Crucially, clinicians noted that half of the women who tested positive for GBS would not have been classified as 'at risk' under the current guidelines – so their babies would not have been protected. The UK National Screening Committee carried out a review in 2012 in collaboration with the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, the Royal College of Midwives and NHS England. It concluded that not all women who test positive for GBS will go on to develop the infection or pass it on to their babies, so blanket screening would mean pregnant women would be unnecessarily given antibiotics, which carry their own risks to the foetus. Some studies link antibiotics used in pregnancy and labour to obesity and asthma. In premature babies an increased risk of cerebral palsy has been associated with use of some antibiotics in labour. Yet these results confound the decision, prompting calls for the Government to introduce universal testing for pregnant women during standard ante-natal appointments, as is the case in Germany, France and the US. A programme which offered screening to all expectant women at Northwick Park NHS hospital in North-West London resulted in not a single case of the bacteria spreading to infants among those who were tested . Jane Plumb, chief executive of the charity Group B Strep Support, said: 'The risk-based strategy has failed to reduce the rate of GBS infection, and these findings contradict the party line that the risks of screening every woman would outweigh the benefits.' The consultant microbiologist who introduced the screening programme at Northwick Park, Dr Guduru Gopal Rao, said: 'There was a substantial burden of infection in our local community which was not being prevented by the national guidelines. 'Our work shows that GBS screening of all expectant mothers can work and is likely to be more effective than the current risk based approach.' Dr Richard Nicholl, consultant neonatal paediatrician at London North West Healthcare NHS Trust, said he had seen more than 100 babies with GBS

Summary: Officials have said no evidence to support screening for Group B Strep . Current guidelines only recommend testing women deemed to be 'at risk' But screening at Northwick Park NHS Hospital, London, resulted in not a single case of the bacteria spreading to infants . Only recorded cases during the year affected babies of women who had not agreed to be tested .


QPR manager Chris Ramsey is convinced he is the right man to bring long-term success to Loftus Road - whether Rangers are relegated or not. Ramsey has overseen just one victory since he was appointed permanent manager in February but four points from games against Aston Villa and West Brom, and a narrow defeat to Chelsea, have revived hopes of survival. West Ham's Sam Allardyce and Bournemouth's Eddie Howe have both been linked with Ramsey's job in the summer but the former Tottenham coach believes it would be unfair for his future to depend on Rangers avoiding the drop. QPR manager Chris Ramsey is convinced he is the right man to bring long-term success to Loftus Road . 'I wouldn't say I'm expecting the sack (if QPR are relegated) but I've been in the game a long time and you have to be realistic about what generally happens, whether it's fair or not fair,' Ramsey said. 'I'm going to say it would be unfair because I'll be shopping in Lidl instead of Waitrose, I'll have a different shopping basket. 'I have to look at it from my personal point of view. The club have to do the best for their long term and if it's not me, I'd fully support whatever they decided to do. But I think it is me. 'I think the club long-term needs someone like me to have a holistic approach of building the club.' Ramsey worked with Tim Sherwood at Tottenham's academy, nurturing the likes of Harry Kane, Ryan Mason and Nabil Bentaleb - all of whom have thrived at White Hart Lane this season. Rangers have hung their survival hopes on experienced, and often expensive, signings but Ramsey believes he can carry out the club's wish for a more joined-up strategy. The 52-year-old is a popular and respected man within the game, with aspirations of getting the full-time job . 'I think the chairman wants to go that way because we need to keep that stability at the club for the long term,' Ramsey said. 'At Tottenham, it took us nearly a decade to get them where they are, where you could churn out player after player after player to have loads more ready to bolster the squad even if they weren't quite ready. 'At the moment we might only have three or four that could bolster the squad. 'In order to get that correct development you need to be patient but if you do get it right you set the club up for a long time.' Reports suggest that Ramsey could link up with friend Tim Sherwood (left) at Aston Villa in the summer . Rangers are two points adrift of safety having played a game more than the three teams above them and Saturday's game at home to West Ham looks crucial given the club's next two fixtures are away to Manchester City and Liverpool. Ramsey, however, insists he is not feeling the pressure. 'I had more sleepless nights at Tottenham,' Ramsey said. 'Sometimes it's harder when you're the number two, you want the

What better way to kick off the week you get married than by settling a pressing matter at work before you relax and prepare for the big day? That is how Andy Murray may be feeling as he looks to face Novak Djokovic in the final of the Miami Open. The British No1 marries Kim Sears in Dunblane on Saturday and, win or lose on Sunday, he will be heading straight to the airport to get back and focus on what lies ahead next weekend. Andy Murray reacts as he reaches the Miami Open final with a win over Tomas Berdych in the last four . He will face long-time rival Novak Djokovic in the final in Miami on Sunday . Murray's fiancee Kim Sears watches on in the heat in Miami during his semi-final . He would dearly love to do so with the trophy in his luggage. For one, it would represent his biggest tournament win since taking the Wimbledon title in 2013, irrefutable proof that he is back towards his best. Perhaps even more importantly it would end the growing dominance of Djokovic over the Scot — and everyone else for that matter. Murray will need no reminding that he has lost nine out of his last 10 matches against the Serb, so it is a huge task. Even more remarkably, Djokovic has won his past nine finals at these Masters-level events, which are one tier down from the Grand Slams. Murray allowed himself to get befuddled by the world No1’s histrionics in the Australian Open final, and then played a plain bad match when thrashed by him in their Indian Wells semi-final last month. The 27-year-old was in clinical form as he set up a final showdown with Novak Djokovic . Murray reacts after winning the final point before shaking hands with Berdych as he heads into the final . ‘I learned more in the Indian Wells match from what I didn’t do,’ said Murray. ‘The final in Australia didn’t necessarily feel like it came down to the tennis or the tactics, but in Indian Wells there were a few things I did wrong.’ Top of that list was to lapse into his tendency to feel his way into the match, rather than come out firing on all cylinders. If Murray does that again he will lose, but he plays well here and is hugely familiar with the heavier conditions, so this should be closer. He has also played all his matches during the day, which will help with the lunchtime start (6pm UK). His opponent, however, looked incredibly sharp in defusing John Isner’s big serve in the semi-final and Djokovic knows recent history is on his side. Murray is set to marry his fiancee in Dunblane next Saturday . ‘It can only serve as a positive, going in with the fact I won the last six matches we played against each other, especially the most recent one,’ said Djokovic. ‘It gives me confidence and maybe a slight mental advantage. But we are talking about small margins, that’s

Summary: Andy Murray faces Novak Djokovic in Miami Open final on Sunday . Set to marry fiancee Kim Sears in Dunblane next Saturday . British No 1 has lost nine of his last 10 meetings with Djokovic .


Four out of ten British Muslims partly blame MI5 and the police for radicalising British teenagers who then flee the country to join ISIS. A survey of 1,001 British Muslims found that one in four of this cohort had some sympathy with those who decide to join terror organisations such as ISIS. The figures show that among young and female Muslims, one third have sympathy for the Jihadi runaways despite the deplorable images of ISIS atrocities posted on the internet. Eight per cent agreed they had 'a lot of sympathy' for the likes of Jihadi John. Scroll down for video . Four out of ten British Muslims partly blame the security services for radicalising young Jihadis . Eight per cent of British Muslims said they had 'a lot of sympathy' for the likes of Jihadi John, pictured . Six out of ten strongly condemned those, such as Jihadi John, who have joined ISIS. The survey conducted by Survation on behalf of Sky News found that one-third of all Muslims felt they are viewed with suspicion by non-Muslims. It follows a similar poll earlier this year that found more than a quarter of Muslims sympathised with the Charlie Hebdo attackers, who brutally murdered journalists at the satirical magazine's offices in Paris. Yesterday's Survation study of 1,001 non-Muslims, 44 per cent agreed they were more suspicious of Muslims than they had been previously. The pollsters asked Muslims and non-Muslims about whether they felt Islam was 'compatible' with British values and the British way of life. According to the survey, three quarters of Muslims agreed their religion was compatible with the values of British society, with 14 per cent disagreeing. For non-Muslims, less than one quarter viewed Islam as compatible with British values with around half saying the religion was incompatible. One in five followers of Islam believe that British Muslims do not do enough to integrate into society, while 64 per cent believe they do, the pollsters found. Another six per cent felt it was not important for Muslims to fit into British society. Their families: 44% . Government: 15.1% . Religious authorities: 8.8% . Police: 3% . Schools: 2.2% . No-one: 4.6% . Other: 22.1% . 1,001 Muslims polled by Survation for Sky News . The researchers found that one in seven non-Muslims had sympathy for those who have joined ISIS. The researchers found that almost 40 per cent of Muslims agreed that the security services were partly responsible for radicalising young Jihadis, compared with 16 per cent of non-Muslims. Meanwhile more than half of the Muslims surveyed said it was their responsibility to condemn terrorist attacks by Muslims in the name of Islam, while a third said it was not. When it comes to stopping young Muslims joining terrorist groups, 44 per cent felt it was the responsibility of their families to set them straight. More than 15 per cent said it was the government's responsibility, followed by religious authorities (nine per cent), the police (three per cent) and schools (two per cent). The father of one of the three east London

In-form winger Aaron Murphy scored twice in a seven-try romp as Huddersfield secured a 38-14 Super League victory against Catalans Dragons to end a three-match losing run. Murphy, player of the month for February and March, went over in the left corner on 15 minutes from Jake Connor's pass. He was then on hand when Ukuma Ta'ai, who also scored twice, caught and off-loaded a kick from Danny Brough on 37 minutes. In-form winger Aaron Murphy scored twice in a seven-try romp as Huddersfield beat Catalans Dragons . Former Wakefield Wildcats star Murphy, 27, has now scored six tries in his last five appearances. Having fallen behind Catalans hit back to lead 8-6 - with scrum-half Scott Dureau bagging all of their points. He scored a try on 21 minutes when Elliot Whitehead passed inside after a solo dash past two players split the Giants defence. Dureau converted and then added a penalty goal on 24 minutes for a poor shoulder charge on him by Joe Wardle. Wardle was restored to the Giants line-up after being suspended for last week's defeat by St Helens for a dangerous throw on Ben Cockayne. Huddersfield responded with three tries in 10 minutes at the end of the first half - and it could have been more. Connor nearly put Murphy in again down the left on 27 minutes while Leroy Cudjoe was held up on the right flank after Brough's break from deep. In between Ta'ai pounced for a try when a Dragons defender fumbled a high kick from Brough on 30 minutes. Scotland star Brough, whose kicking caused problems for the visitors all game, was at it twice more before half-time. His kick led to Murphy's second try and then another Brough bomb was dropped on the hooter by a defender and Cudjoe pounced. Brough, who took his tally to 58 points for the season with three earlier conversions, this time hit the post. Huddersfield led 22-8 at the break, with the sides trading tries after the restart as Catalans narrowed the gap to 26-14. Julian Bousquet scored a converted try on 45 minutes while Jermaine McGillvary went over at the other end eight minutes later. There was controversy on 62 minutes when a simmering feud between Cudjoe and Willie Tong boiled over. The pair seemed to exchange words and former NRL star Tong responded by appearing to headbutt Cudjoe right in front of referee Robert Hicks. Tong was sin-binned and Cudjoe got a verbal warning in the presence of Giants skipper Brough. Huddersfield took full advantage of the extra man by running in two quick tries, first from Ta'ai a minute later and then Scott Grix on 65 minutes. There was no further score, but Louis Anderson lost his temper late on as Huddersfield defensively shut the game down.

Summary: Aaron Murphy scored twice as Huddersfield ended three-match losing run . Former Wakefield Wildcats star has now scored six tries in his last five . Murphy went over in the left corner on 15 minutes from Jake Connor's pass . He was then on hand when Ukuma Ta'ai off-loaded kick from Danny Brough .


A massive, fast-moving wildfire in Southern California has forced residents of 300 homes to flee their homes in the middle of the night. The raging blaze, reported shortly after 6pm Saturday, was sparked by a cooking stove. The fire along the border of cities Norco and Corona, 35 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles, resulted in hundreds of people to being told to evacuate the are area over the weekend. By midday, Sunday, fire officials said they had contained 35 percent of the fire, which had ravaged the area and grown to 1.6 square miles. Scroll down for video . Engulfed: Smoke and flames loom over the Prado Dam Flood Control Basin behind homes on Cheyenne Road in Corona, California . Damage: The fire threatened hundreds of homes near the Southern California dam . Rescue efforts were helped by cooperative weather combined with hundreds of firefighters who beat back the flames Sunday. Captain Mike Mohler of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said the fire burned in the Prado Dam Flood Control Basin, where vegetation has not burned in decades. As a result, the area that is burning has up to 3 feet of 'duff' — needles, leaves and other combustible plant debris. At the same time, California's drought means the basin has not held much water recently, Mohler said. Because the smoke was not blowing away, area residents were urged to stay indoors. But the evacuation orders were lifted just before dawn Sunday. CalFire Captain Liz Brown confirmed that about 500 firefighters worked on the front lines. They were backed up by two helicopters, though fixed-wing aircraft were not being used. And despite the ferocity of the fire, no property damage or injuries were reported. Fire: The brush fire that broke out on Saturday evening, April 18, 2015 is seen here as it burns in the Dam Prado Dam Flood Control Basin north of the city of Corona, California.

Journalist and author of the best-selling book I Quit Sugar has opened up about her own personal battle with mental illness, revealing she came close to taking her own life. During a candid interview Sarah Wilson, 41, explained how anxiety drove her to believe she had reached a stage in her life where she 'couldn't see the point of continuing.' 'My anxiety brought me to a point where I couldn't quite see the existential point of continuing,' she told Women's Weekly Australia. 'I couldn't see a way out.' Scroll down for video . Sarah Wilson opened up in a candid interview about how her battle with mental illness drove her to believe her life wasn't worth living . During the intimate interview Ms Wilson revealed it was a combination of issues, including mounting stress, anxiety, her thyroid disease and distant family, that drove her to believe her life was no longer worth living. She said 'people get on with their lives' and while she hadn't found a husband, nor had children, she felt increasingly isolated. 'I was essentially very alone,' Ms Wilson added. 'My anxiety brought me to a point where I couldn't quite see the existential point of continuing' 'I couldn't see a light at the end of the tunnel,' she added. Ms Wilson said while she struggled through her younger years she has recently 'found some peace with it.' In Ms Wilson's eyes, depression and anxiety are intrinsically linked. She thinks we need to acknowledge this link to be better equipped to tackle the increasing rate of Australian women who are being negatively affected by stress and anxiety.

Police have issued a warrant for the arrest of a woman charged with bestiality after police found footage on her mobile phone of her allegedly having sex with a dog. Jenna Louise Driscoll, 25, was due to face Brisbane Magistrates Court on Monday on seven charges of supplying or trafficking drugs, one charge of unlawful wounding and three charges of bestiality with her dog. Jenna Louise Driscoll was charged last year with three counts of bestiality, along with charges of trafficking and possession of a dangerous drug. She was remanded on bail to appear at the court last week, and did not show, and again on Monday for the matters to he heard. After her second fail to appear, police issued an arrest warrant. Jenna Louise Driscoll has been charged with three counts of bestiality, along with charges of trafficking and possession of a dangerous drug and unlawful wounding . The 25-year-old returned home with an unidentified man and a dog last October and was remanded to appear in court on April 13, but failed to show prompting police to issue a warrant . Police were carrying out checks on Driscoll's phone for suspected drug trafficking when they discovered the three videos which allegedly show her having sex with a dog . Driscoll was due to appear at Brisbane Magistrates Court on Monday but didn't show up and is now wanted by police on seven drug charges, one of unlawful wounding and three charges of bestiality with her dog . Following her court appearance last October, the 25-year-old was pictured arriving home accompanied by an unidentified man and a pet dog. The dog, believed to be a pitbull terrier, climbed the stairs to Driscoll's cream coloured residence, where neighbours say she has lived for some time. Driscoll entered her house and remained for a very short amount of time, before leaving with the man in the sedan. The charges laid against Driscoll came when police had earlier carried out checks on her phone for suspected drug trafficking and discovered the three videos. ‘This isn’t something you’d normally expect, it’s quite unusual. The last case I can recall was a few years ago, it certainly isn’t something we hear reported often,' said Mark Townend, CEO of RSPCA Queensland. ‘Under the Animal Care Protection Act bestiality isn’t included. To take action and remove the dog we would have to prove actions there were cruel or that it was tormented.’ ‘The RSPCA would ideally like to get a dog out of the situation if bestiality was happening, but to operate under the act we would have to prove those two things.’ ‘We’d try to do everything we can to help the dog if that is the case.’ Driscoll was also charged with two counts of possession of an item used in the commission of a crime and three counts of supplying. She was granted bail but will have to report to police once a week and live at an apartment at Enoggera, south-west of Brisbane.

An architect who arranged to meet a woman on a blind date raped her several hours later while telling her 'girls say no but they don't really mean it,' a court has heard. Adam Leheup, 34, allegedly insisted on having sex with the 25-year-old woman despite her shouting: 'No, no.' Leheup met the woman on July 9, 2013 after arranging to meet on the 'Let's Date' mobile phone app. Adam Leheup met with his alleged victim after making contact with her through the 'Let's Date App' They arranged to meet under the clock on Waterloo Station before crossing the bridge over to the Embankment where they went to Gordon's Wine Bar.

Blackfriars Crown Court heard that Leheup missed his last train home to Hersham, Walton-on-Thames, so the alleged victim allowed him to come home with her to her flat in Camden during the early hours of July 10, 2013. He said they enjoyed a night-long date, which included wine and cocktails, with the young woman responding to his physical advances and allowing him to remove her bra in her bedroom so he could massage her back with oil. In a statement to police, the alleged victim said: 'I told him nothing was going to happen, but he started to kiss me and I could tell he was naked. He took my clothes off and was on top of me and penetrated me and I was shouting: "No" a lot, but he was not listening. 'I was saying: "No", but he thought it was a joke or something. Then maybe he realised I was serious and he calmed down. 'He said: "Girl’s say: No, but they don’t mean it." I just wanted him out. My flatmate said she was going to call the police, but he laughed at her and said it would just be a domestic.' Prosecutor Mr Ish Sheikh told the court the couple met on dating app ‘Let’s Date’ - which connects users who mutually find each other attractive - and had two bottles of wine at Gordons Wine Bar, Embankment after meeting and walking across Waterloo Bridge. It was so late Leheup had missed his last train and his date agreed to put him up for the night.

Leheup went to Gordon's Wine Bar, pictured, with his alleged victim before going back to Camden together . Leheup has pleaded not guilty to raping the 25-year-old girl at Blackfriars Crown Court, pictured . 'He started kissing my neck and it made me a bit uncomfortable, but it wasn’t vicious or nasty and later I did kiss him back. We were getting on well,' the woman told police in a video interview. 'The kissing had got a bit more aggressive, stuff I did not like, his hand on my throat, which makes me vulnerable. 'I said: "Nothing is

Theo Walcott understands just how difficult it is now to hold down a place in the Arsenal side, who he says have been the 'best team in Europe' this year and could lift the title next season if everyone stays fit. The Gunners' slim hopes of overhauling Chelsea's 10-point lead at the top of the Barclays Premier League were all but extinguished following a goalless draw at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. Walcott watched on from the bench again before a late substitute appearance, with the forward's last club start having been back in March. Theo Walcott believes Arsenal have been the 'best team in Europe' in the second half of the season . Arsenal had earned eight successive Premier League victories before the 0-0 draw against Chelsea . The 26-year-old - who recovered from a serious knee injury last season, but has yet to agree a new long-term deal - feels such strength in depth can only be positive for the squad, if sometimes frustrating for individuals. Fellow England internationals Danny Welbeck, Jack Wilshere and Kieran Gibbs also did not make the first XI against Chelsea. 'There is a lot of competition for places so everyone seems to lift a gear and play extremely well. It makes it a bit more difficult for people to get into the team,' Walcott said, quoted on the club's official website, www.arsenal.com. 'I think, especially this season, not many people thought we would be challenging for the Premier League. 'In this calendar year, we have been the best team in Europe. 'It is the strongest the squad has been and everyone is staying fit as well. The English midfielder (left) has struggled to maintain a first team place under Arsene Wenger this season . 'There aren't many injuries in the squad, which is important. If we had an injury-free season, I think we could lift the title.' Arsenal head to Hull on Bank Holiday Monday looking to keep pressure on Manchester City in the race for second place, and with it automatic qualification for next season's Champions League. Captain Mikel Arteta is set to step up his training this week after an ankle problem hampered recovery from a calf injury, while midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is another continuing rehabilitation from an inflamed groin which has seen him out since the FA Cup win at Manchester United last month.

Lord Janner, pictured, is alleged to have sexually assaulted young men in the 1970s and 1980s in children's homes in Leicestershire. His alleged victims could bring civil claims against him . Lord Greville Janner - the Labour peer accused of molesting young boys in the 1970s and 1980s - could be tested by experts to prove he has dementia as part of civil claims brought by his alleged victims, a lawyer has said. The family of the 86-year-old politician has been told he will not face child abuse charges because of his memory problems, but he could still face civil action from complainants. Legal firm Slater & Gordon are representing several people looking to take private action against Lord Janner, with police having identified 25 people who say the Labour peer attacked them. Each could claim up to £100,000. Lord Janner has been accused of preying on young boys at three Leicester care homes between 1969 and 1989, with prosecutors arguing there is 'overwhelming' cause to charge the former MP with 22 sex attacks on nine victims - the youngest aged just 10 at the time. Richard Scorer, head of the abuse team at Slater & Gordon, told Jamie Doward at The Observer newspaper that they were investigating the prospect of having Lord Janner examined by third-party expert witnesses. 'I have certainly dealt with civil claims before where the alleged abuser has claimed to have dementia and we have been able to have them medically examined in relation to that,' he said. 'It is something we could consider doing. It would depend on the detailed evidence that is available about his medical condition but, potentially, there is provision in the civil law for us to do that.' The director of public prosecutions Alison Saunder when she decided not to pursue the charges of historic sex abuse. She said there was 'no public interest' in prosecuting Lord Janner because of his dementia, adding that his illness made him unfit to plead - amid accusations of a 45-year cover-up over his alleged actions.

Swansea boss Garry Monk has responded to speculation linking him to the West Ham job by insisting the perfect man to manage the club is already in place at Upton Park. Sam Allardyce's current contract expires at the end of the season, and it has been suggested West Ham's owners might go in a different direction ahead of the club's move to the Olympic Stadium at the start of the 2016-17 campaign. Monk has been touted as a potential candidate after leading Swansea to a record-equalling 47 Barclays Premier League points with six games left, but the 36-year-old expressed his bemusement should the London club look elsewhere this summer. West Ham manager Sam Allardyce is out of contract at the end of the season and could leave the club . Garry Monk has been touted as a potential replacement but insists Allardyce is a perfect fit for West Ham . Allardyce has overseen a solid season in the league so far this term and the Hammers are ninth in the table . 'West Ham have a fantastic manager in place,' Monk said ahead of Swansea's trip to bottom-placed Leicester on Saturday. 'For them to be looking elsewhere - if they are - I think they've already got the manager there who's had a fantastic season. 'West Ham have done exceptionally well this season, progressed again, and that's what you want from a club.' Eighth-placed Swansea are four points better off than the Hammers, who have slipped to ninth after a wretched run of only two wins in their last 14 league games. Monk, the youngest manager in the Premier League, has also earned plaudits for the way Swansea have played this season and kept his side on track following the January sale of top scorer Wilfried Bony to Manchester City. 'I look at that type of speculation as a compliment to the way myself and the team have worked this season,' Monk said. Swansea have had to cope with the January sale of star player Wilfried Bony to Manchester City for £28m . 'It shows we're progressing and going in the right direction. 'But West Ham is nothing to do with me. My focus is purely on Swansea and wishing to finish the season strong - and that will remain my focus. 'The points record was a target we talked about, we committed to the work we wanted to put in place and to achieve it. 'The players deserve massive credit but the whole thing is to get past it and we have six games to hopefully do that. 'We've just focussed on the next game, rather than positions, and that is the same this weekend . 'I'm surprised where Leicester are because of the quality they have, but they've put themselves in a good position to try to get out of it, so we've got to make sure our attitude and mentality is right.'

A new mother and her baby were found dead on a cliff face after she was advised to stop taking an anti-psychotic medication so she could breastfeed. Charlotte Bevan had come off risperidone – a powerful drug used to treat illnesses including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder – before her daughter Zaani was born late last year. Four days after the birth, the 30-year-old walked out of Bristol maternity hospital without shoes or a coat and with her baby girl in her arms. Exit: Four days after giving birth, 30-year-old Charlotte Bevan (left) was able to walk out of Bristol Maternity Hospital without shoes or a coat and with her baby girl in her arms (right) The next day, police found her body two miles away on a cliff face of the gorge near the Clifton suspension bridge. Newborn Zaani Tiana Bevan Malbrouck was later found close by. It emerged yesterday that Miss Bevan – who is believed to have had a history of severe mental health problems – had been advised by medics to stop taking the drug ahead of Zaani’s birth. NHS guidance says mothers should take risperidone during pregnancy only if their doctor says they need to. It adds: ‘If you take this medicine during the late stages of pregnancy or during labour, your baby may have some problems or withdrawal symptoms and may need to have some monitoring after birth.’ At a pre-inquest hearing yesterday, Avon senior coroner Maria Voisin said ‘breastfeeding advice given in relation to (Miss Bevan’s) risperidone’ was an issue she wanted to explore in an effort to prevent future deaths. Discovery: After a huge search, police found Miss Bevan's body two miles away on a cliff face of the gorge near Clifton Suspension Bridge. Newborn Zaani Tiana Bevan Malbrouck was later found close by . She said: ‘She was not taking risperidone – what action was being taken and what impact was that having on her mental health?’ The coroner also said there were further questions for the hospital to answer, adding: ‘The ward she was on - was it appropriate for her to be on and were all the staff trained and able to deal with her needs? ‘Obviously there is the issue of Charlotte managing to leave the ward and the hospital unnoticed and unmanaged.’ University Hospitals Bristol NHS Trust launched a review into the care it offered Miss Bevan and her baby following their deaths in December. Immediately after Miss Bevan disappeared, friends and family said she had battled depression since her father’s sudden death from a brain tumour in 2000. And it was suggested she had suffered a decline in mental health due coming off medication. Miss Bevan’s boyfriend Pascal Malbrouck, her mother Rachel Fortune, and her sister were among the family at the short pre-inquest review held at Avon Coroner’s Court in Flax Bourton near Bristol.

'I was just going over there to pick up the flag off the ground. I don’t know what their cause is, but I went to pick it up because it doesn’t deserve to be on the ground.' She continued: 'If your cause is racism then find some white people and walk on them. 'But to walk on the flag is walking on our symbol of freedom. You have the freedom to do what you are doing because of it. I’m not fighting against them. I’m fighting against the way they are going about it.' It is not clear what the demonstrators were rallying against. They did not answer reporters' questions about what their cause was.

It may have been Bugs Bunny's favourite treat but an animal charity has warned that too many carrots are making the nation's pet rabbits fat. The PDSA has said that obesity levels in pets is at an all-time high, with experts predicting that more than half will be classed as overweight within five years. Around one in three dogs and one in four cats are already said to be overweight. Too many treats, the wrong type of food and lack of exercise were to blame for turning some of the nation's bunnies into giants, the charity added. Scroll down for video . Grace the giant overweight rabbit has joined the PDSA's annual Pet Fit Club competition for overweight animals . Carrots were named as the worst culprit as the vegetables are very high in sugar and so should only ever be given as the occasional treat, not as regular feed. Nicola Martin, PDSA Head of Pet Health and Welfare, said: 'Sadly, many of our 1.3 million pet rabbit population in the UK are 'unhappy bunnies', as many of their welfare needs are being neglected. 'The good news however is that pet obesity is entirely preventable. Experts have warned that more than half of pets will be overweight in five years with carots named as the worst culprits for bunny obesity . Now in its tenth year, the Pet Fit Club puts pets on a six-month diet and exercise programme overseen by vets, leading to one being crowned a super slimmer . 'So we're advising owners that, while feeding their pet a treat may be rewarding in the short term, as a way of showing affection, the long term impact is serious. They could be killing them with kindness.' PDSA research revealed that four-out-of-five veterinary professionals had seen an increase in pet obesity cases in the last two years. The problem of fat pets has become some widespread that the runs an annual Pet Fit Club competition to put them through their paces. Porky pets are placed on a six-month diet and exercise programme overseen by vets, leading to one being crowned a super slimmer.

Andy Cage from PetAID hospital says that obesity is one of the biggest animal welfare problems . Last year's candidates included Daisy the obese bulldog from Middlesbrough, who at 4st 6lb, was double the weight she should have been. Fellow rabbit Poppy was a third heavier than she should be at more than 7lb – mainly due to a taste for popcorn.

A mother was removed from a train and taken away in a police van because she took home a clothes horse she had found 'abandoned' in a carriage. Aimee Craven, of Hull, East Yorkshire, had claimed the Tesco product worth £20 and taken it home after spotting it on a train the previous week - because she thought it had been left by its owner. But British Transport Police officers trawled through CCTV footage to track down the 32-year-old care worker before taking her off a train as she travelled to work in Brough. Police investigation: Mother-of-one Aimee Craven, of Hull, East Yorkshire, was accused of trying to shield the £20 Tesco clothes horse from CCTV as she walked off the train in Brough (above) with it . Miss Craven - who is now waiting to see if she will be charged, but has been told it is likely she will receive a caution for theft - said: ‘I was the first person to get on the train and I spotted it. ‘I know the right thing to do would have been to hand it in but I thought, “I’ll have it”. It was a spur of the moment, stupid decision, which I am sorry for. ‘But I don’t think what I did justifies everything that then happened. The police got on the train, asked me to step off it and I had no idea what it was about. ‘Everyone was looking at me. I was absolutely traumatised, it was awful. They asked me if I’d taken it and I told them the truth. They said it was theft.’ Police insisted to MailOnline that she was not arrested - and told how the victim was on the train at the time of the theft, and had placed the clothes horse behind her seat while travelling. After being taken off the train, Miss Craven was driven home in a police van and asked how long she had lived at her address and whether she owned the property. Facing a caution for theft: Miss Craven was asked by British Transport Police to go for questioning at their offices at Hull Paragon (above), where she was given a solicitor, paid for by legal aid . She was also said to have been asked where she worked, how long she had worked there, which shifts she did and what time she finished. Miss Craven was then made to take her wet clothes off the airer she had been using for a week, while police waited to confiscate the item. The mother-of-one, who cares for the elderly, was then allegedly asked to attend a police station for questioning where she had her DNA taken from a mouth swab and was fingerprinted. She said: ‘When I got home and went in and said the police are here for the clothes horse my boyfriend thought I was joking. ‘He said, “Oh very funny, April Fools’ was ages ago”. Then when I started taking the clothes off he said, “Aimee I think you are going too far now”. He just

It's Hot or Not time again as Ian Ladyman reveals what's been making him feel warm this week and what's been leaving him cold inside. Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Steve Davis remain heroic despite their advancing years but what is the point of Formula One? HOT . FC PORTO . Bored of flags on seats? Try capes on seats. The Portuguese club's slaying of Bayern Munich was achieved against a backdrop of fans draped in co-ordinated blue and white. Does this mean that the visitors' lumbering defender Dante became the first footballer ever to 'lose the ball in the background'? Porto's fans were co-ordinated in blue and white as their side stunned Bayern in the Champions League . SHIVNARINE CHANDERPAUL . The West Indies batsman is a throwback to when Test cricket was true to its roots. Slow and boring. But the 40-year-old's longevity is staggering. More than 21 years he has been at it. When he started, Test matches still had rest days. Now that only happens when England play Australia. West Indies' Shivnarine Chanderpaul may be slow and boring but he is still going strong at 40 . STEVE DAVIS . Only the truest sportsmen keep going when nobody else cares. Last week the six-times World snooker champion, now 57, played a qualifying match at a swimming venue in Sheffield. He lost 10-1. There is something mildly heroic about that. I think. Steve Davis failed in his bid to qualify for the World Championships at the age of 57 . MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL. If Match of the Day remains our go-to for weekly football then it now has serious competition. Neville, Carragher and Co have taken analysis to such a level that, on more occasion than one recently, the chat has been a darn sight better than the football. Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville's analysis is often a better watch than the game they're commenting on . NOT . THE GRAND NATIONAL . It remains hypnotic viewing but when winning trainer Oliver Sherwood says: 'I'm just glad the horse came back in one piece' does that not beg a very obvious question? Crabbie's Grand National winner Many Clouds and owner Trevor Hemmings with trainer Oliver Sherwood . FORMULA ONE . Watching a sport where only two or three can win has always struck me as rather pointless. Rather like watching football in Scotland. Now it turns out Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg can't even decide how fast to drive. At least Hunt and Lauda had personalities. Mercedes team-mates Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton have been at loggerheads this season . ALASTAIR COOK . The England skipper has always struck me as a fine batsmen and a poor leader. Now his bad form has continued after tips from Graham Gooch, the man he sacked from the England set-up last year. Are you thinking what I am thinking? Alastair Cook's struggles with the bat have continued in England's first Test against the West Indies . JURGEN KLOPP . Much interest in his decision to leave Borussia Dortmund but Klopp may find his mobile

Summary: Porto set a new standard as fans were draped in blue and white in midweek . Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher are often a better watch than the match . Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton's rivalry lacks personality . Alastair Cook probably shouldn't have gone to Graham Gooch for tips .

She plans to appeal the conviction. Scroll down for video . Life in prison is no laughing matter: Jodi Arias looks serious in a new mugshot (left) taken this week, as she starts her life in prison sentence for murdering ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander.

She killed ex-boyfriend Travis Alexander in what prosecutors said was a jealous rage because he wanted to break off their relationship. Arias killed her ex-boyfriend in 2008 after a stormy relationship. Prosecutors say she murdered him in a jealous rage because he wanted to break off the relationship. She shot Alexander and stabbed him nearly 30 times in his suburban Phoenix home before fleeing and driving to Utah to meet up with another romantic interest. She was arrested weeks later and initially denied any involvement. International media attention soon followed after she did two television interviews in which she told a bizarre story of masked intruders breaking into the home and killing Alexander while she cowered in fear. She subsequently changed her story and said it was self-defense after Alexander attacked her on the day he died.

Fiona Cullum provided a safe haven for Hassan Hussain and Yassin James after they gunned down innocent nursery teacher Sabrina Moss . A mother who sheltered the killers of an innocent nursery teacher and lied to the police has been spared jail. Fiona Cullum, 25, provided a safe haven for Hassan Hussain as he and fellow murderer Yassin James, 20, were hunted by police for gunning down Sabrina Moss in the street on a night out to celebrate her 24th birthday. Cullum then lied to officers when quizzed about Hussain after he was arrested in 2013 over the murder in Kilburn, north west London. The men sprayed bullets at mother-of-one Miss Moss and her friends as they took cover from the rain outside a bar. Miss Moss' friend Sabrina Gachette, then 24, was lucky to survive after being blasted in the back with a sawn-off shotgun during the attack outside Woody Grill, in South Kilburn. The Old Bailey heard the shooting was part of an ongoing rivalry between two gangs. Hussain, 30, James and their getaway driver Martell Warren, 23, were last year jailed for a total of 111 years after they were convicted of murder and attempted murder. But Cullum, who sheltered Hussain and James 'hours after the murder' before telling officers she did not remember them being in her home, was today handed a suspended sentence by Judge Stephen Kramer QC. He sentenced her to 18 months imprisonment for harbouring Hussain and to 24 months for lying to police, but suspended the sentence for two years after highlighting her ‘exceptional’ personal mitigation, which included drink and drug problems. Cullum was also handed a two-year supervision order and ordered to carry out 50 hours of unpaid work. Miss Gachette, who punched the air when Cullum was found guilty of two counts of perverting the course of justice, walked out of court after hearing the sentence, as did Miss Moss' furious mother. The judge said those who help criminals to evade justice in serious cases ‘strike at the very heart of our justice system’. ‘What you did was serious and hindered the police investigation into the shooting,’ he told Cullum. Miss Moss was out celebrating her 24th birthday when she was shot dead in a street in Kilburn, north west London . The men (pictured on CCTV on the street before the attack) sprayed bullets at mother-of-one Miss Moss and her friends as they took cover from the rain outside a bar . ‘You hid behind a defence that you were so drunk or in drugs you could not recall the days in question and maintained in any event you did not see Hassan Hussain.’ But he added: ‘You have a sad background, drinking alcohol from the age of eight and taking drugs from the age of nine years old. ‘[According to the evidence] you were and are a vulnerable woman with more than your fair share of problems used by a dangerous and cruel man.’ Allowing her to walk free from court, the judge said: ‘I have taken an exceptional course

Summary: Sabrina Moss was gunned down in a London street on her 24th birthday . Fiona Cullum, 25, sheltered two of her killers as they evaded the police . Two murderers and getaway driver were last year jailed for 111 years . But Cullum was spared jail today and was handed a suspended sentence for harbouring a killer and perverting the course of justice .


A six-year-old girl has been sexually assaulted by a boy of the same age in the classroom and playground of her school. But officers are powerless to act over the allegations, at a school in Blackburn, Lancashire, because the age of criminal responsibility in England is ten, so charges cannot be brought against the boy. The girl's mother has also blasted school authorities after officials refused to remove the boy from her daughter's class, saying they have made the girl feel 'like she was in the wrong'. According to the girl's mother school officials refused to remove the boy from her daughter's class, and she says she has now had to move the girl to a new school (posed by model) The mother said she has now been forced to move her daughter, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, to another school. She said: 'I informed the school and social services straight away, and rang the police. I had to keep her off school because the school said it was appropriate for the boy to remain in classes. 'They said they needed to speak to the boy's parents and find out his side of the story. 'My daughter didn't really understand how bad it was. It has left her feeling very vulnerable. The way the school has acted makes her feel like she was in the wrong.' The girl's mother is also asking for a change to the law after police said they were powerless to act because the age of criminal responsibility in England is ten, and the boy is just six (posed by model) The woman added that there needs to be a change in the law as children are becoming 'sexualised' at a younger age, and said cases should be thoroughly investigated. Lancashire Police confirmed they received a report of the issue but that any action was the responsibility of the school and social services. Blackburn with Darwen Council said it was working to support those involved after the allegations.

A leader of the now outlawed Muslim Brotherhood has had his death sentence confirmed by a Cairo court this weekend. Mohamed Badie and 13 other defendants were handed their sentences as 37 people, including an American-Egyptian citizen were jailed for life. The defendants found guilty of plotting unrest from their headquarters in a sprawling Cairo protest camp in the months after the military overthrew Islamist president Mohamed Morsi in July 2013. Scroll down for video . Upheld: Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed Badie, pictured at a trial earlier this year, has had his death sentence confirmed by a Cairo judge . Judge Mohamed Nagy Shehata, known for his harsh rulings in cases involving the Muslim Brotherhood, also sentenced two Islamists who have fled the country to death. Among those sentenced to life in prison is Mohamed Soltan, an American-Egyptian man who has been on a hunger strike over his detention for more than 14 months. Soltan's family called for Mohamed's immediate release in a statement after the verdict, charging that there was no evidence against him. His father Salah Soltan was among the 14 detainees sentenced to death. The U.S. embassy in Cairo said in a statement that it was 'gravely concerned' about Mohamed Soltan and would 'continue to monitor his case closely and to provide him with all possible support.'

Ruling: Egyptian Judge Mohammed Nagi Shehata reads the verdicts in a cases in Cairo, on Saturday . The rulings can be appealed before the Court of Cassation, which has overturned dozens of other death sentences, including against Badie. So far Egypt has executed one Islamist sentenced to death after Morsi's overthrow, following his conviction of involvement in the murder of a youth during violent protests in July 2013. Judge Shehata read out a Koranic verse that stipulates amputation and crucifixion for outlaws, before rendering his verdict on Saturday. At a previous session, he had sought the opinion of the country's mufti, the Islamic legal authority who has an advisory role under Egyptian law, on the death sentences. Known as the 'Rabaa Operations Room' case, the prosecution accused the defendants of organising months of unrest and protests against the ouster of Morsi, a senior Brotherhood figure himself now on trial. The Rabaa al-Adawiya protest camp in Cairo was dispersed by police on August 14, 2013 in a 12-hour operation that left hundreds of protesters and about 10 policemen dead. Supporters of Egypt's ousted president Mohamed Morsi stand their ground as Egyptian security forces move in to disperse them by force from the Rabaa al-Adawiya protest camp in Cairo in August 2013 . Mohamed Soltan was shot in the arm during the dispersal, and he was arrested days later as police hunted down Islamist activists who had fled the protest camp.
