Deputies then escorted Fuller from the room. As he was being led off, Fuller shouted loudly to the room at large. Several witnesses said that what they thought they heard him shout was, “You’re all whores!”
Fuller, age 63, is a political operative who specializes in gathering petitions for ballot initiatives. Before the program began, he passed out business cards to people sitting around him that read:
“Signatures
“Expediting Initiatives since 2006
“J. Eric Fuller
“Political Circulator.”
A Pima County Sheriff’s spokesman told KGUN9 News that the department has charged Fuller with one count of threats and intimidation, and said they plan to charge him with at least one count of disorderly conduct. Humphries told KGUN9 News that he does plan to press those charges.

We all hope it will stop, but it doesn’t. Just when you thought creep had been defined, we learn of someone who redefines the word.
A nurse punched a frail patient who walked with the aid of a Zimmer frame and was in the last stages of life, a hearing was told.
Emma Trubody, 36, is said to have thumped the 46-year-old man who began to cry before telling him his ‘crocodile tears’ would not help.
The patient, who has not been named, was suffering from kidney and liver failure. He died six weeks later.
via Nurse ‘punched dying frail patient who walked with a Zimmer frame’. Another loser who shouldn’t be taking care of anyone but herself. What is this woman doing in the healthcare profession? Someone, anyone…why? I can think of many professions where she would never have to be bothered. I hope she enjoys prison.
Then again, maybe she can join the freaks that were identified assaulting disabled patients?
Authorities have identified two of the suspects recorded in sexual assaults of profoundly disabled women, officials said Friday.
Los Angeles police officers recognized the men after detectives went public with artist sketches and photos of four men on Thursday, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Sgt. Dan Scott said. As many as 10 suspects could have been involved in the assaults.
One of the suspects, Bert Hicks, was a worker at a Los Angeles care facility and had already been prosecuted by police for two felony sex counts and two abuse counts. He is currently imprisoned at Tehachapi State Prison and scheduled for release in 2012, Scott said.

Real gems.
Very interesting…TSA is going to pay. Regardless of how much it is, I’m happy that someone stuck it to TSA. Their behavior has been shameful.
A woman who sued the Transportation Security Administration for exposing her breasts during a patdown at a Texas airport has won a ‘nominal’ payment.
Lynsie Murley, 24, filed a lawsuit against the TSA last year for negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
She claimed that the May 2008 incident at Corpus Christi airport left her ‘extremely embarrassed and humiliated’.
Ms Murley will receive the nominal sum from the government as part of a legal settlement, according to The Smoking Gun.

2 incomplete tunnels found at Arizona-Mexico border.
Border Patrol agents and Mexican officers discovered two unfinished tunnels near the international border on Sunday, officials said.
The tunnels, usually built for drug smuggling, were found during the sweep west of the DeConcini port of entry into Arizona, according to a statement issued by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Both tunnels were about 2 feet wide and 3 feet tall, and one of them reached about 10 feet into the United States.
