Rod Grassmann said the office was investigating an apparent \u201chuman error\u201d that led to Shaquille Lash, 28, being released despite his violent criminal history.<\/p>\n<p>Lash had been transported to the Sacramento County Main Jail from Tehachapi State Prison ahead of a court hearing Friday for EDD unemployment fraud and was released during the booking process around 10:30 p.m., Grassmann said.<\/p>\n<p>The Sacramento County District Attorney&#8217;s Office confirmed with KCRA 3 he faces one felony count of unemployment benefit fraud. His arraignment hearing on Friday is with five others involved on the fraud case. The EDD said they could not comment on the case.<\/p>\n<p>An error during the day shift had made it appear to the night shift that he was eligible for release.<\/p>\n<p>He said the office was investigating to determine if there was a procedural failure, human failure or a combination of both.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I don&#8217;t see how this could happen.

I knew it didn\u2019t hurt that much and it\u2019s much quicker than laser sessions, which is a bit of a long game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She went on, \u201cI had totally cut contact with him before I sent it, so I have no idea what his reaction was. This was really just my dark sense of humor at play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Brit runs a body-piercing business and has multiple piercings, tattoos and modifications, including a split tongue, scarification, skin removal and implants.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from her taking off a hunk of arm, she\u2019s also removed her earlobes and clipped off one of her fingers. The extra part of her finger is currently stored in a pendant inside a display cabinet.<\/p>\n<p>She explained that there would be moments that she would tape down her pinkie to see if she could \u201cget along without it and see if it would hinder me in any way.\u201d And well, it turns out it didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>She prefers to do her own work on herself, so for her digit-diminishing procedure, she set up a workstation to ensure it went smoothly. \u201cI have a lot of professional knowledge when it comes to modification, so I knew the risks I was undertaking,\u201d Reynolds said.<\/p>\n<p>She purchased cutters for herself from a local hardware store and set up a sterile environment. After she fashioned a tourniquet for her finger, she made \u201cone quick chop and boom, it was done!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was all over in a second and I couldn\u2019t have been happier,\u201d she said of cutting off her pinky \u2014 the detached part of which she has nicknamed Wiggles.<\/p>\n<p>Even though she has the piece of her little finger stored in a necklace, she won\u2019t wear it around her neck because she doesn\u2019t want to lose the precious commodity. \u201cTo this day, [Wiggles] just sits at home in my cabinet next to the jar of my earlobes and random dead things,\u201d Reynolds said.<\/p>\n<p>As for her family\u2019s reaction, the ink artist explained they knew that she was \u201cseriously considering\u201d changing her body, \u201cso it didn\u2019t come as much of a shock to them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLike anyone who loves you, they just want me to be safe and happy,\u201d she said.<br \/>\n\u201cI\u2019ve done many other modifications that some might see as extreme, so it was just another Tuesday to them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reynolds also pointed out that she has received some hate for her grisly choices. \u201cAfter revealing my finger, I got a lot of the usual nonsense: offensive messages, death threats and such, which I always find amusing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added, \u201cIt\u2019s bizarre to me that something I do with my body that literally doesn\u2019t affect another single being can upset people that don\u2019t even know me and are unlikely to even ever meet me.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Death threats?

At least a spiteful animal. I guess it&#8217;s true that an elephant never forgets.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>An elephant trampled a 70-year-old woman to death in eastern India\u2019s Odisha state last week, then returned to attack the same woman\u2019s corpse during her funeral, the National newspaper reported on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Maya Murmu was collecting water from a well in Odisha\u2019s rural Raipal village on the morning of June 9 when a wild elephant attacked her. The animal \u201ctrampled\u201d Murmu, according to the Press Trust of India (PTI), and caused fatal injuries to the older woman. Murmu\u2019s relatives brought her to a local hospital where she died from her wounds hours later.<\/p>\n<p>Murmu\u2019s family arranged a funeral for her at a Raipal residence on the evening of June 9, storing Murmu\u2019s body outside during the ceremony\u2019s preparation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[W]hen the family members of Maya Murmu were performing her last rites, the tusker arrived there suddenly and took the body from the pyre,\u201d PTI reported on June 11.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe elephant again trampled her dead body, threw it and fled. The last rites were conducted after a few hours,\u201d the Indian news agency relayed, citing the account of an eyewitness.<\/p>\n<p>The number of elephant attacks on humans in India has increased in recent decades, according to the National, which is a U.A.E.-based newspaper.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs many as 3,300 people have been killed in attacks by wild elephants in the country in the last seven years,\u201d the publication reported on Monday, citing Indian government data.<\/p>\n<p>The National further observed on June 13 that at least four people were killed by elephants across India during the previous week. Odisha has recorded the highest number of fatal elephant attacks among Indian states in recent years, with nearly 600 people killed by elephants in the state between 2014 and 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Continuing, the National noted:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>India has nearly 27,000 elephants in the wild, according to the last survey conducted in 2017. The numbers are declining amid shrinking forest areas, encroachment of habitats and poaching.<\/p>\n<p>Various state governments are making extensive efforts to curb human-elephant encounters by tagging the animals with radio collars to alert locals of their movement, and raising awareness through campaigns which give tips on dealing with the animals if encountered.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Odisha authorities believe the elephant that killed Murmu on June 9 likely originated from the Dalma Wildlife Sanctuary, which is located 124 miles northwest of Raipal village. The closest forest to Raipal is the Krishnachandrapur Betnoti Forest, which is located just 13 miles west of the village.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Source; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/asia\/2022\/06\/14\/india-elephant-kills-woman-returns-attack-corpse-funeral\/\">Breitbart<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Man serving life sentence is wrongfully released from Sacramento jail, found in Stockton A man serving &hellip; <a title=\"Stupid people of the week\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=126909\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Stupid people of the week<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":664,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[209,185,603,236],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-126909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-teh-stoopid","category-crime","category-stupid-criminals","category-wtf"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/126909","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/664"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=126909"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/126909\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=126909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=126909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=126909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
