In today’s creepier than creepy news:

CBS46 –A woman has been arrested for trying to obtain an unwanted baby for her 14-year-old daughter.

Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office detectives received a tip from a citizen about a suspicious Craigslist advertisement in Cumming, GA.

The advertisement was for unwanted babies and promised mothers they could drop off their baby in a “baby box”.

Police said Elaine Williams, 47, of Cumming, told police her daughter wanted a baby and would get one with or without her help, so she decided to help. Williams was charged with domestic-unlawful advertisement/inducement for adoption of children.

The ad says the baby must be placed in the box in a blanket, along with the birth certificate and health records of the baby. It also specifies that the baby should not be a disabled child.

Via In Flex We Trust– Chaos continues to reek havoc through the streets of Baltimore, Maryland as the death toll continues to climb – this time a man setting two other men on fire.

Christopher Harrison, 28, was arrested by Baltimore County Police on suspicion of setting two men ablaze Friday night alongside a highway in the community of White Marsh.

Authorities have stated that four coworkers who were traveling in two separate cars walked to a gas station after one car ran out of gas. When they returned to their cars, an argument amongst 3 broke out and a fight initiated.

David Widener, the cameraman, was just going to film a fight about to happen, but it instead turned into arson. The video footage that was captured is now being ruled as official police evidence in the attempted murder.

The arsonist Harrison, doused two fellow employees with gas before lighting them ablaze. One victim ran sporadically up an embankment while the other bolted across the highway screaming for help, than rolled on the concrete to put himself out. His clothes had already quickly burned away.

The two unnamed victims are both being treated at a local hospital with both in critical condition. One man has severe burn damage in over 90% of his body, while the other man suffers from 50% of his person burned.

Harrison is currently being held without bailed and is also facing assault charges.

Woman Forced To Flee Her Home After Address Posted On “Plenty Of Fish” Ad 

  

A felony charge has been filed against a Florida woman after she allegedly posted an online-dating ad inviting men to come over and “rape” her. The problem is that the ad was not intended for herself — but for another woman she purposely wanted to hurt. She used the other woman’s real photos and gave her real address.

According to a criminal complaint obtained by the Smoking Gun and filed in Pinellas Court, 39-year-old Frances Lee Tapscott “had a friend create a fake Plenty of Fish profile using the victim’s name and photographs.”

That profile, highlighted by the complaint, said the woman, 25, enjoyed “role play” and that she wanted someone to come over and “rape” her.

The ad began to make a splash on the site, drawing attention from men. The complaint said that when men would respond to the ad, they were given the victim’s phone number and home address.

Two of those men took the ad so seriously they showed up at the victim’s house to “act out the fantasy,” the complaint noted. Reports say the victim was in fear for her safety and had to flee her home.

The relationship between Tapscott and the victim is unclear, as is the motive behind the vicious posting.

Tapscott has been charged with aggravated stalking and is reportedly being held on $10,000 bond.
