  • Mom Tasered For Attacking Police After CPS Takes Child

    This is one of those tragic stories. The kind that starts with a frightening domestic assault and escalates when a mother tries to protect her child from a perceived threat.

  • Woman Tasered by Cops After Attacking CPS Worker

    Few restaurants can claim to have hosted so many crazy, outlandish, and even violent events as good old Mickey D’s.
