Mom Claiming To Be Possessed By The Devil Throws Her Baby Out NY Apartment Window

A 27-year-old woman lost her marbles and did the unthinkable when she allegedly threw her baby girl from a sixth-floor apartment window. Tenisha Fearon claimed the devil had gotten a hold of her following her arrest for the horrific incident.

Per The Gothamist:

A 6-month-old infant died yesterday after her emotionally disturbed mother allegedly threw her out of the window of their apartment in the Bronx. Louella Hatch, godmother of suspect Tenisha Fearon, told the News that Fearon was ranting to cops that “the devil is in her,” as she was being taken away.

Fearon, 27, was arrested after she allegedly dangled and then dropped Junilah Lawrence out of the window of their sixth-floor apartment on Tiebout Avenue, near 181st Street, around 1:30 p.m. Thursday. Neighbor Lizette Rodriguez told the Times that Fearon, who was naked at the time, screamed, “Hallelujah, praise God, we’re all going to die,” before dropping the girl. “She was arguing with herself,” she added.

Next-door neighbor Gregorio Lopez added that after throwing the baby out the window, Fearon lay on the floor of her apartment surrounded by her other three children, aged 10, 8 and 4. They were all naked and lying on their backs as well. “I actually thought that they weren’t alive when I saw them lying on the floor naked,” Lopez said. But then Fearson “jumped up and started hitting the window,” he said. “That’s when I started calling for more help because I thought she might throw more [kids] out.”

22 Year Old Man Texas Man Sentenced To Death Row

Texas’ death row is getting its first inmate of 2015, ending a 10-month hiatus in death sentences imposed by juries in the nation’s most active capital punishment state.

A Brazos County jury decided after seven hours of deliberation Wednesday that 22-year-old Gabriel Hall should be executed for an attack that left a man dead and his wife injured at the couple’s home in College Station, about 100 miles northwest of Houston.

The lull in death sentences in Texas is similar to what other capital punishment states have experienced in recent years. The Texas hiatus is believed to be the longest the state has seen since the U.S. Supreme Court, ruling in a Georgia case in 1972, effectively halted executions.

Statistics kept by the Death Penalty Information Center show 73 people nationwide were sentenced to die last year. In 1996, the nation’s death rows swelled by 315 inmates.

South Carolina Man Beheads 2 Week Old Puppy In Front Of Girlfriend and Kids

Via NY Daily News– A cruel canine-hating South Carolina man allegedly decapitated a 2-week-old puppy, as his girlfriend and her two children watched in horror.

James Xavier Quattlebaum, 25, mercilessly cut the head off a young pooch with a kitchen knife after an argument on Saturday at about 3:14 a.m., cops said. A 7-year-old and an 11-year-old watched as the heartless killer beheaded the puppy.

He had come home high on drugs and “beheaded several puppies” beforehand, his girlfriend, Tarsha Hankinson said, according to KRON4.

“You don’t get over nothing like that. See all that blood and the dog decapitated in front of you? You don’t get over that,” neighbor Mary Ella Byrd told WRDW. “He had no right doing that dog like that. He should be punished.”

Officers found Quattlebaum in the bedroom, covered in blood and animal fur. They searched the home and found the puppy’s body in the trash, according to reports. As he was being arrested, the alleged puppy killer spit in an officer’s face, a local news station reported.
