And we mean literally feel her pain.
The Daily Mail reports that Hartman, 34, allegedly yelled “You and I just had sex last night” before tasing the father of her child, Alvin Hennis, with her key-chain stun gun as he lay butt naked in bed. Hartman chased his lover, Cordelia Rose, outside of the house.

Rose was getting into her car before Hartman caught up with her and tased her in the neck.
Neither Rose no Hennis were seriously injured as the strength of the stun gun was reportedly too weak to cause major damage.
Hartman was arrested and charged with battery. It is not known what kind of gun Hartman used. She did not have a permit for it, however. During Hartman’s hearing, Hennis took the blame for the entire situation.
“It was pretty much my fault,’ Mr Hennis told Broward Court Judge John Hurley at Hartman’s hearing.
“We were supposed to do something together that morning, and I forgot. I went to my house, and things happened.”

Hennis pleaded with Judge Hurley to go easy on the mother of his child, saying that she is a great mom.
‘She is a beautiful mother, a hard worker and very responsible. I think she got emotional by what she saw,’ Mr Hennis told Judge Hurley.
‘I could imagine things could get very emotional,’ Judge Hurley answered.
‘Oh, things got very emotional,’ Mr Hennis said. ‘Very emotional.’
He apologized for his actions, adding that he forgot to lock the door to the master bedroom.
‘That probably was your first mistake,’ Judge Hurley said.
Tell us about it! Hartman was free on $2,500 bond and ordered to stay away from Rose.

MARCELLUS (AP) — Police say a southwestern Michigan toddler was saved by his family’s Labrador retriever after falling into a swimming pool and nearly drowning.

The Cass County sheriff’s office says 14-month-old Stanley Drauch was blue with his face up in the water when his mother, Patricia Drauch, found him Sunday afternoon at their home in Marcellus.

Deputies say the family’s dog had Stanley on his back when Patricia Drauch found her son.

The dog, named Bear, was holding Stanley out of the water.
According to the Kalamazoo Gazette, Patricia Drauch told deputies she and her son walked to the garage to get a shovel, but after they arrived, the child was no longer there.

Cass County Undersheriff Rick Behnke tells WOOD-TV that Bear “is a lifesaver.”

First thy say the taser was undercharged, and next sentence, "Hartmann was ... charged with battery." Does a run-down battery mean the charge will be reduced? cn

The federal government is pissed at R. Kelly ... for failing to pay a whopping $4.8 million in back taxes ... TMZ has learned.

According to documents filed by the IRS, Kelly owes money on his taxes going way back to 2005. It breaks down like this ...

2005 - $1,472,366.77
2006 - $710,520.51
2007 - $376,180.11
2008 - $1,122,694.90
2009 - $173,815.18
2010 - $992,495.24

... for a total of $4,848,072.71.

Being trapped in the closet probably won't cut it as an excuse.

A rep for Kelly tells TMZ, "R. Kelly is in the process of working everything out with the government and is confident that all his obligations will be satisfied."

ORLANDO, Fla. —
A homeless man spent Friday night in the Orange County Jail. He was busted after police said he posed as a guest at lavish hotels and went on spending sprees that his victims paid for.
David Price has been homeless for the past two years. On some nights he found shelter at the most lavish hotels in Orange County including The Ritz Carlton, Hard Rock Hotel and Loews Portofino Bay. He stayed at those hotels on other people’s dime.
“He’s a scumbag. People like that deserve to do time. That’s using, have a good time with somebody else’s expense,” said resident Nicholas Lawro.
Since June 2010, police have gotten reports of Price re-checking into hotel rooms. He would apparently watch a guest leave then go into the room and claim he’s that person. Once in the room, police told WFTV Price would call the front desk and say he wanted to extend the stay, sometimes by 10 days.
At the Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal, Price allegedly racked up nearly $9,000 in charges on an Ohio man’s credit card. WFTV spoke to that man on the phone.
“I don’t know how he got in my room, how he got my debit card. But he got like the best wines, the best restaurants, room service. He got clothes and the whole ball of wax,” said victim Joseph Barak.
Barak did get his money back.
A few days ago, police arrested Price after he finagled his way into a room at the Hard Rock Hotel that was previously occupied by a hotel worker. Security officers knew the employee had already left so they called the police. Officers apparently found items from other hotels in the room, including The Peabody on International Drive and the Four Seasons in Miami.
Police reports indicate that investigators at Walt Disney World have also looked into possible fraud by Price.

Deltona man holds air conditioner repairman at gunpoint, sheriff's officials say
By LYDA LONGA, Staff Writer
July 2, 2012 10:30 AM Posted in:




Nguyen
Stan Nguyen was unhappy with the job his air conditioner repairman did on the unit at his residence, so Nguyen decided to hold the worker at gunpoint until the job was done right, sheriff's officials said this morning.
But the repairman -- unharmed -- was able to call for help at about 9 p.m. Friday, said Volusia County sheriff's spokesman Brandon Haught.
Repairman Sean Hickman had gone to Nguyen's house at the 2300 block of Statler Terrace on Friday to repair the unit, a report shows. When Hickman began explaining the unit's problem to Nguyen, the homeowner became angry and refused to pay Hickman, the report shows.
Nguyen, 54, claimed Hickman ruined the unit, the report shows.
Hickman said he attempted to give Nguyen an invoice for the work; on the 9-1-1 call made by Hickman, the repairman also told Nguyen that he would be hearing from his attorney.
At that point, Nguyen pulled out a gun and pointed it at the ground, attempting to fire the weapon, the report shows. The safety was on the weapon though and it did not fire.
But then Nguyen removed the safety and that's when Hickman took cover behind his van. Hickman called for help and said Nguyen was pointing the gun in his direction and threatening to shoot him if he tried to leave, the report says.
A few minutes before Hickman telephoned for help, Nguyen's son Stephen Nguyen, called 9-1-1, saying the repairman had "fried" the air conditioner and was refusing to leave their residence.
Nguyen was arrested and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

That is righteous.

I knew someone once whose neighbors had a cockatiel (yes, a tiel) who could say "I demand habeas corpus!" Pretty cool from in the cage. cn

When free-diver Yang Yun tried to return from the bottom of an arctic pool, she found that her legs had cramped up and she couldn't move.
"I began to choke and sank even lower and I thought that was it for me – I was dead. Until I felt this incredible force under me driving me to the surface."
A Beluga whale named Mila had seen what was happening and sprang into action, guiding Yun safely back to the top of the pool.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Lifeguard Tomas Lopez helped save a drowning man and got fired for it.
The reason: He left the section of a south Florida beach his company is paid to patrol. The Orlando-based company, Jeff Ellis and Associates, says Lopez broke a company rule and could have put beachgoers in his section in jeopardy.
The Sun Sentinel reported Lopez was on duty Monday at Hallandale Beach when a beachgoer asked for help. Lopez said he ran to assist a man struggling in the water south of his post.
By the time Lopez arrived, witnesses had pulled the drowning man out of the water. Lopez and an off-duty nurse helped him until paramedics arrived. The victim survived and was hospitalized.
Afterward, Lopez was fired.
Two other lifeguards have quit in protest.

I wonder if there's a wrongful termination suit in that. cn

What a DUD.

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2012/07/entire-san-diego-fireworks-show-exploded-in-15-seconds-ruining-show.html

One of the largest Fourth of July fireworks shows in the nation was ruined in San Diego Wednesday after a glitch caused all the pyrotechnics to ignite all at once.
About five minutes before the Port of San Diego’s Big Bay Boom was to begin at 9 p.m., spectators saw a brilliant display of fireworks that shot up in only 15 seconds – an incredible disappointment to hundreds of thousands of spectators who had waited for hours for the 18-minute show

A Maine man found himself in deep doo-doo after allegedly going on a tear at a local disc golf course — before he was apprehended by cops.
That's because they found him in the bottom of a port-a-potty.


When police at Enman Disc Golf in Brunswick in response to complaints that a naked man had been rolling in the mud, overturning trash cans and sitting in the disc goals, the suspect was nowhere to be found, The Times Record reported.


For a while, a backpack full of clothes was all they could trace — until they spotted him in the bottom of the portable toilet, according to the Times Record.
The 29-year-old didn't respond to cops' commands, the deputy police chief said, but eventually cops fished him out, sprayed him down and cuffed him.
The man was taken into protective custody and hospitalized.
