Illinois man pleads guilty to stealing $470,995
An Illinois man will be sentenced to six years in prison after he pleaded guilty Monday to stealing $470,995.53 from a township company by accepting paychecks for a job he didn't have.
Anthony Armatys, 35, pleaded guilty to receiving the money in direct deposits from Avaya, a telecommunications firm for a job as a senior systems analyst/systems architect that he accepted in September 2002.
Armatys filled out the necessary paperwork with Avaya's human resources department, but he then turned down the job because of the terms of his employment contract with his then current employer.
A new computer system at Avaya terminated Armatys from the company's human resources database but failed to remove him from the company's payroll system. Armatys continued receiving a paycheck from the company until February 2007.
The investigation began when Avaya auditors discovered that payroll checks had been mistakenly deposited into Armatys' account.

Cop Pulls Gun At Haunted House
Witnesses Say Off-Duty Officer Was Drunk
A Baltimore city police officer was charged with assault after he pulled a gun on a haunted house character wielding a chainsaw.
Baltimore County police said Sgt. Eric Janik, 36, pulled his gun on a haunted house employee dressed up as the killer from "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" at the House of Screams show.
Police said that the employee approached Janik after the haunted house tour was over in an effort to get "one last scream."
Instead, it was the employee that got a scare when Janik pulled his service weapon and pointed it at the Michael Morrison's chest, authorities said.
"I was doing my normal scene at the haunted house, and as I was going out the back door with the chainsaw, the officer pulled his gun on me. He put his gun to my chest and as I was going back in, he said he was a cop
He said he dropped the chain saw, which had no chain and was not dangerous.
Janik denied pointing his loaded service weapon at Morrison. He said he pointed it at the ground.
When he was being processed, two of the officers noticed his speech was slurred and there was a moderate odor of alcohol coming from his breath.
Janik, a 14-year veteran, has been suspended without pay pending a formal suspension hearing.

Small Bits of News You Didn’t Know you Needed
Dealer finally gave up after 16 days
A drug dealer who refused to go to the toilet for 16 days to avoid producing the evidence that would convict him has been jailed for 52 months today.
Damien Ankrah, aged 28, was arrested on July 13th on suspicion of transporting heroin by placing the drugs in condoms and placing them inside himself.
Police became even more suspicious when he refused food or drink in his cell at Pembroke Dock police station, west Wales.
An officer was stationed full time outside his cell door and police used special legislation to keep him in custody beyond the normal time limits.
Ankrah began to accept drinks only but after local magistrates granted a further extension of time for his detention on July 17th he started to eat small quantities of food.
But he kept his legs crossed until July 29th, when he finally came clean and produced five bags of heroin.

Panty raid at Victoria's Secret Store
$8,000 in undies stolen from Victoria's Secret
Five hundred pairs of panties were reported stolen Thursday from the Victoria's Secret store in the Bell Tower Shops.
Employee Michelle Birch told deputies that at 5:30 p.m. two women came into the store with a child.
According to reports, the child went into the beauty section and opened several drawers, possibly to distract Birch while the mother continued to shop.
During that time, a man and woman also came into the store, and employee Tonia Wiesner helped them.
Wiesner told police the man stood uncomfortably close to her face and asked several questions in Spanish.
Birch noticed the two women had left the store, and then discovered 500 pairs of panties, each valued at $16.00, were missing from trays.

Woman has been in mortuary cold storage for 30 years.
A nurse who fell to her death at a party in Saudi Arabia will finally be given a funeral more than 30 years after she died.
Helen Smith was 23 when she fell from the balcony of a block of flats in the city of Jeddah in May, 1979.
Her father Ron, who is 83 and now in poor health, has finally given the go-ahead for her to be cremated after three decades of campaigning for a public inquiry into the circumstances surrounding her death.
Helen and fellow partygoer Johannes Otten - a Dutch sea captain - were both killed in the fall and police concluded they had been having sex when they lost their footing.
Mr. Smith, a retired police officer, always denied this and refused to accept the open verdict at her inquest.
