Be Careful What You Ask For
Tuesday, July 31st, 2007I know I haven’t updated in awhile. I’ll have some more stuff pretty soon (Michael Vick), but here’s a nice little story to hold you over until then.
Police: Boss Kills Coworkers Who Asked For Raise
EAST POINT, Georgia (AP) — The owner of a car dealership has been accused of killing two employees because they kept asking for pay raises.
Rolandas Milinavicius has been charged with two counts of murder in the shooting deaths of Inga Contreras, 25, and Martynas Simokaitis, 28.
All three are from the eastern European nation of Lithuania but had been living in Atlanta, Georgia, authorities said.
Milinavicius, who was having financial problems, told police he shot the two Thursday after they kept asking for more pay, said police in East Point, which is just outside Atlanta.
“He told us that he was under a lot of stress,” East Point police Capt. Russell Popham said. “Unfortunately, he decided to take his anger out with violence.”
Milinavicius, who had been living in Alpharetta, a suburb north of Atlanta, started RM Auto International two years ago, hoping to meet the demand for American cars in Lithuania. He began shipping cars and later hired the two victims as his only employees.
Milinavicius, 38, turned himself in two days after the shootings and confessed to the killings, Popham said.
“As I understand, the employees were not really happy about the pay, and they had questioned him about it over the course of time,” Popham said. “That morning he said he just snapped.”
Contreras and Simokaitis were cremated and an informal memorial service was held at Simokaitis’ cousin’s apartment over the weekend. The remains were to be flown to Lithuania on Tuesday.
“It doesn’t make any sense,” the cousin, Jaunius Simokaitis, of Fayetteville, said Monday. “If he was having money problems, these two would have been the ones to help him get out of debt. They would have helped him make that money.”
Pro Wrestler Snaps
Tuesday, June 26th, 2007Although nothing official has been released yet, authorities are saying that Chris Benoit killed his wife and kid over the weekend, and then himself on Monday.
And he seemed like one of the normal ones.
Benoit’s Death Part Of A Double Murder-Suicide
According to lead investigator Lt. Tommy Pope, of the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department, in Fayetteville, Ga., the deaths of WWE Superstar Chris Benoit, wife Nancy and son Daniel were the result of a double murder-suicide, WWE.com has learned.
Benoit failed to appear both at Saturday’s live event in Beaumont, Tx., and WWE’s Vengeance: Night of Champions in Houston Sunday night, after informing WWE of a family emergency. Several curious text messages sent by Benoit early Sunday morning prompted concerned friends to alert Richard Hering, VP of Government Relations for WWE, Inc. Hering, in turn, spoke with Fayette County sheriffs Monday, and requested that they respond to the Benoit residence to check on him and his family.
Authorities representing the Sheriff’s Department initially had a difficult time entering Benoit’s new Fayetteville home Monday afternoon, which had been guarded by two large German Shepherds roaming freely around the property. Once authorities entered the residence, they quickly located the bodies of Benoit, Nancy and Daniel. WWE was notified of the discovery at approximately 4 p.m.
At 10 p.m. Monday night, Lt. Pope held a press conference in conjunction with Scott Ballard, the district attorney for Fayette County. The press conference officially ruled authorities’ findings as a double murder-suicide from within the home.
WAGA, a FOX-owned and operated television station in Atlanta, reported that investigators believe Benoit killed his wife and 7-year-old son over the weekend, then himself on Monday.
The three bodies have been received by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s crime lab, in Decatur, Ga., where autopsies will be performed Tuesday morning. Toxicology reports will not become available for at least two weeks.
WWE.com has further information relating to both the investigation and the cause of death, but the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department has requested that WWE.com not release any additional details at this time.

Pants-Gate Update
Wednesday, June 13th, 2007ATTENTION! ATTENTION!
The man pictured below is a massive fuckstain.
If you see this man please to not attempt to engage him in conversation as he is considered to be a massive fuckstain and extremely stupid.
Just kick him in the nuts.
Rob posted earlier about this and I just had to follow up.
“Judge” Roy L. Person Jr. broke down in court yesterday. Over a pair of pants. I’m going to actually hand this over to the Washington post for a moment. I’ve bolded the more amusing bits.
Before trial began yesterday in the case of the D.C. judge who sued his neighborhood dry cleaners after they lost his pants, the most extraordinary fact was Roy Pearson’s demand for $65 million in damages.
That was before Pearson, an administrative law judge, broke down while testifying about the emotional pain of having the cleaners give him the wrong pants. It was before an 89-year-old woman in a wheelchair told of being chased out of the cleaners by an angry owner. And it was before she compared the owners of Custom Cleaners in open court to Nazis.
“I knew it: It’s all my fault,” said the reporter from German television who was sitting next to me.
The global import of Pearson v. Custom Cleaners was evident from the start. The courtroom was packed with members of the Korean Dry Cleaners Association and reporters from print and broadcast outlets in at least five countries. The guy from the tort reform lobby handed out bright green buttons protesting the $65 million “pantsuit.” The gent from Fox TV sported neon-color paisley pants.
And Pearson, who by his account has spent more than 1,400 hours preparing his case, arrived in a black pinstripe suit. I hope he won’t sue me if I mention that the pants could have used a pressing.
“Never before in recorded history have a group of defendants engaged in such misleading and unfair business practices,” Pearson said in his opening statement. You don’t get a lot of firsts in recorded history in D.C. Superior Court, though I should add that Marion Barry was in the building for his day in traffic court, and the pants suit easily outdrew the ex-mayor-for-life.
The “willful and malicious conduct” Pearson described consisted of this: In 2005, Pearson was starting his new job as a judge and therefore needed to start wearing suits again after a couple of years of unemployment. He brought five suits in for alterations because he’d put on 20 pounds and needed to have the pants let out. Four suits came back fine. One came back without the pants.
Pearson says the Chung family — Korean immigrants who came here from the charcoal factories of Seoul in 1992 and now own three cleaners, including the one a short walk from Pearson’s place in the Fort Lincoln section of Northeast — had no intention of living up to the sign in their shop that said “Satisfaction Guaranteed.” Therefore, Pearson said, he had no choice but to take on “the awesome responsibility” of suing the Chungs on behalf of every resident of the District of Columbia.
Judge Judith Bartnoff went to remarkable lengths to try to keep Pearson moving along while disabusing him of the notion that he represented either the tens of thousands of people who have used Custom Cleaners or the half million people in Washington who might theoretically be at risk of being dissatisfied with the shop’s service.
From the start, Pearson kept referring to himself as “we,” as if he were representing everyone in town. Bartnoff was having none of it: “Mr. Pearson, you are not a ‘we.’ You are an ‘I.’ “
Defense lawyer Christopher Manning depicted Pearson as a bitter, wildly litigious man who emerged from a recent divorce with financial difficulties and who held a deep grudge against the Chungs stemming from a previous run-in. Back in 2002, after the cleaners lost another pair of his pants, Pearson was compensated with a check for $150. The Chungs then tried to ban him from their shop, but Pearson implored them to let him come back because Custom was the only cleaners within walking distance of his home, and he doesn’t have a car.
Pearson presented a series of witnesses who told of unhappy experiences at Custom. Their satisfaction, they said, was hardly guaranteed. But every one of Pearson’s witnesses told the defense that in fact, they would have been entirely satisfied if they had been given credit for free cleaning or compensation in the amount of the value of their damaged or lost garment. Most of the witnesses said they’d generally had good experiences at Custom, and not one of Pearson’s witnesses said anything about deserving millions of dollars.
Witnesses depicted Soo Chung, the mom in the Mom and Pop operation, as someone who was pleasant and professional — until a dispute arose, at which point she told several of the customers that it was they who had brought in damaged goods, not the shop that had caused any problem with an article of clothing.
Grace Hewell, a retired congressional staffer, said Jin Chung, Soo’s husband, “chased me out of the store” when she complained that her suit pants “looked like they had been washed” and no longer fit properly. “At 89, I’m not ready to be chased,” she said. “But I was in World War II as a WAC, so I think I can take care of myself. Having lived in Germany and knowing the people who were victims of the Nazis, I thought he was going to beat me up. I thought of what Hitler had done to thousands of Jews.”
After questioning eight witnesses, Pearson spent two hours telling his own story, but as he came to the part about when Soo Chung finally told him she had found the missing pants, the tale of the $10.50 alteration that went awry proved to be too much.
“These are not my pants,” Pearson recalled telling Chung when she handed him a pair of gray pants with cuffs. “I have in my adult life, with one exception, never worn pants with cuffs.”
“And she said, ‘These are your pants.’ ”
Pearson paused. He struggled to breathe deeply. He could not continue. Pearson blurted a request for a break, stood up, turned around and walked out of the courtroom, tears dripping from his full and reddened eyes.
When he returned, he called that moment when Chung offered him the wrong pants “a Twilight Zone experience,” and again, he welled up and had to halt the proceedings. Pearson wanted to submit the remainder of his testimony in writing, but Judge Bartnoff wouldn’t hear of it.
The trial is expected to end today. Pearson has reduced his claim to $54 million. But he told the judge that he also wants to be awarded attorney’s fees, even though he represents himself. He would like to be paid at a rate of between $390 and $425 an hour.
Earlier in the day, Pearson called his 30-year-old son as a witness. The son testified that he was surprised that his father had filed this suit. “I know you don’t like litigation at all,” he said.
Boy, that is a lot of bold text but since the bolded bits are so damn funny I couldn’t help myself.
Who does this cockholster think he is pretending to represent all of D.C.? Hell if he wants to represent them all let him. It should just mean that if he wins he should have to split it evenly will every god damned resident.
Oh look, here is the record of his divorce. It is a fun read I’ll tell ya. The one bit that stood out for me is:
The trial court found that husband was substantially responsible for “excessive driving
up” of the legal costs by “threatening both wife and her lawyer with disbarment [sic],” and
creating unnecessary litigation. Consequently, it awarded wife $12,000 in legal fees to be paid
by husband.
Looks like he has been an unreasonable fuckstick for a while now. Hey junior, being a “judge” does not entitle you to abuse the system.
