HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN? The oddest police sketches
Police sketch artists provide an invaluable service in bringing perps to justice. Unfortunately they are handicapped by details (or lack thereof) that the witnesses provide.
And when that happens, we’re left with a rogue’s gallery of the bizarre.
But even such dubious sketches yield results. Remember this drawing? It’s the sketch of a person who fatally shot a woman outside a Target store in Georgia.
Cops made an arrest in the case: it was the woman’s mother in law
With that in mind, bone up on the details of our gallery:
Sketch 1: Man suspected in the gunpoint abduction of a teen in Leadington, Missouri.
Sketch 2: Sketch of man who broke into the home of a newlywed in Victoria, Australia, and stabbed them.
Sketch 3: Computerized image of a man who stole two small safes from a pub in Stalham, Norfolk.
Sketch 4: Sketch and mugshot of a man who squeezed the bottom of a middle-schooler in Naples, Florida.
Sketch 5: Computer sketch of a conman who tricked an elderly widow of her life savings in Wales.
Sketch 6: A robbery suspect in Thailand.
Sketch 7: A post office robbery suspect.
Sketch 8: The bizarre sketch released by police of the person who abducted Madeleine McCann.
Sketch 9: Sketch of a prowler who targeted young women as they slept in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania.
“It takes a matter of seconds for a thief to break into your car. All it takes is a hammer, an empty parking lot” …
… and, if the thief’s anything like this reporter, many many many tries
“Umm, not the headline I’d go with”
This Wall Street Journal story is actually about how former colleagues of investor Raj Rajaratnam are bolstering the government’s investigation into the biggest insider-trading case in decades.
Fascinating story; unfortunate headline.

Ouch!
On a given night, the Daily Show is 21 minutes long. On this night, Jon Stewart devoted 10 entire minutes tearing CNN a new one.
It starts at the 1:14 mark when Stewart mocks CNN for fact-checking the ‘Saturday Night Live’ Obama skit but then it goes on. And on. And on …
A fascinating video of media convergence and the digital world we now live in

Click on a country and find the exact spot where users did it.
Users are also expected to say whether the sex was indoors or outdoors and pick from five possible positions.
From a story in the Telegraph:
Sex in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean takes place a lot more frequently than might be anticipated.
A mere seven, however, admit to having had sex in Saudi Arabia.
Jamie Foxx re-interprets his summer anthem ‘Blame it on the alcohol.’ You know, for the children.
Wonder how these kids feel. They made a similar song a full six months before Foxx’s appearance on the Jay Leno show.
Hmm, I smell a lawsuit :)
Wonder if this cashier at Costco resents the fact that a part of his anatomy universally symbolizes weakness

I clicked through the gallery, uttering a single word over and over again: Why?
