Breanna Beacham Bludgeoned Her Own Mother To Death

  Police in New Jersey have arrested Breanna Beacham of Willingboro after she allegedly murdered her own mother. The details of this developing story are still coming to the public in bits and pieces, but according to arresting documents, the 32-year-old has been charged in association with the murder -- which took place on Monday. Fox News 29 reports that police responded to a residence in Willingboro on a call that an assault was in progress. When they arrived, it was already too late.

Breanna Beacham has been charged with first-degree murder, possession of a weapon for unlawful purpose and unlawful possession of a weapon -- all three felony charges.

Florida Girl Killed Grandma With Walker And Belt

A Florida girl admits to killing her elderly grandmother by using the woman’s own walker and a belt in a gruesome murder that she’s shrugging off as a so-called “mercy killing.” Fourteen-year-old Sofia Koval has been charged with manslaughter in association with the killing, which took place back in May. Now the state has enough evidence to charge the teenager as an adult and pursue justice on behalf of 79-year-old Yevheniia Koval. The horrifying incident took place in May after the teen’s father left her in the care of her 79-year-old grandmother. The Florida woman was murdered soon-after, having endured a violent beating at the hands of her own granddaughter. Sofia told her father initially that she’d killed her grandmother in self defense. However, as People reports, that motive doesn’t correlate with the injuries sustained by the woman — or the charged teen’s behavior. The Florida girl had recently moved to The States from Ukrai...

No, Amanda Knox Was Not Unfairly Convicted In The Murder Of Meredith Kercher

Amanda Knox was once-convicted and then exonerated in the murder of her former roommate Meredith Kercher, but was her initial conviction unfair? Meredith Kercher was found slain in her Italian apartment on November 1, 2007. She had been brutally stabbed and sexually assaulted in a crime that an investigation determined to be committed by multiple people. From there, a worldwide media circus spun out of control for years while Italian courts couldn’t decide what to do with the people they knew killed the woman. Ultimately, Knox and her former boyfriend were exonerated and their codefendant stayed behind bars on the very same evidence that was used to convict all three of them initially. Now, Knox lives freely in the United States and is heralded as the poster child for the wrongfully convicted, making a name for herself — and a living — off of the bones of Meredith Kercher, who was given no justice in the end. A recent article referred to the conviction of Amanda Knox a...

Worst Husband Ever Refuses To Compliment Wife For Ridiculous Reason

Is this man the worst husband ever? A Reddit user asked for insight in the popular AITA subreddit, and pretty much got eviscerated in the comments by other users when he shared that he refused to compliment his wife for the pettiest, most manipulative of reasons. The user called VainWifeThrowaway posted that his wife had always been beautiful, but never someone who put a lot of effort or thought into her looks. That seemed to change, however, after she started questioning her identit y outside of being a mom. “She went through this crisis of feeling like she didn’t have a personality outside of being a mom. Something like that,” he wrote. That’s when his wife began paying more attention to her appearance and getting involved in various groups. Over the span of two years his wife had sort of a glow-up and suddenly she started getting the attention of others. OP lamented about his wife gaining validation from others, including other men, which improved her confide...

The man writes that his wife had been a corporate mediator, and had a lot of nice clothing that she unfortunately left behind after she died of ovarian cancer. “She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and was gone in two years. The last six months of her life were hell,” OP said. According to the author of the Reddit post, his sister couldn’t even wait for his wife to be put in the ground before she started asking for the deceased woman’s belongings. “At my wife’s wake, she started ask...

What Would You Do: Hubby Refuses to Cut Off Inappropriate Female Friend

What would you do if your spouse refused to end a friendship with someone of the opposite sex? What if that friend of the opposite sex acted inappropriately toward your spouse? One Reddit user posted about this very issue on the popular AITA subreddit, and readers appear to be in overwhelming support of her. User FlakyStay6087 asked if she’s wrong for questioning her husband’s friendship with a mutual female friend of theirs, especially after the woman’s apparent disrespectful behavior. According to the post’s author, the woman became a mutual friend of the couple’s through the husband’s D&D group, and that she’d even become one of the bridesmaids in her wedding. However, as time progressed and their friendship deepened, OP noticed that the other woman’s comments and behavior toward her husband became more and more inappropriate. “She often made comments about how attractive she found him and even said she would sleep with him ...

Casey Anthony Keeps Being Exactly What We Think She Is

Casey Anthony is once-again back in media headlines — and it looks like she’s pretty much living the life we’d all expect of her. Now she’s evidently moved from Florida (where she was notoriously acquitted in the murder of her once-missing daughter), all the way to the state of Tennessee. That’s not all: She’s also apparently a homewrecker who’s moving in with her married boyfriend. That’s also not all, but it goes without saying that “Tot Mom,” is proving herself to be the same exact woman who went on a partying spree when her child vanished in 2008. Just hours before Casey was spotted moving into the home of her married boyfriend, the 48-year-old man’s wife was seen leaving the home with her belongings — indicating that the breakup of the marriage was suspiciously close to the relationship with Anthony. To make the situation even more despicable, newer reports have shown that Casey Anthony’s new beau is st...

Cold Case: Do Missing Baby Lisa Irwin's Parents Know What Happened to Her?

Lisa Irwin was only 10 months old when she vanished from her family’s home in Kansas City, Missouri. Her mother had been the last person to see her on the evening of October 3, 2011, but by four a.m., the following morning the infant was missing. It’s been nearly 13 years since anyone has seen the missing girl, and with each year that passes the updates in her story become fewer and farther between. Meanwhile, the facts that do remain in the disappearance of Baby Lisa strongly implicate her parents, but police have never made any arrests over the course of this lengthy and fruitless search. From the very beginning of the search for Lisa Irwin, police have described her parents as being non-cooperative . To make matters worse for the missing baby’s parents, her mother Deborah Bradley, publicly admitted that she’d failed a polygraph test administered by authorities. On top of failing a polygraph test, the parents of the missing child were brought under further sc...
