Today's News:

“Six-pack theft, stabbing net parolee 8 more years”
Or
“If your Last Name is Outlaw, perhaps you shouldn’t try to rob a Redneck Grocery Store”

A 46-year-old Fort Wayne man protested he had not received a fair trial on charges of battery and criminal conversion, but Allen Superior Judge John F. Surbeck sentenced him to eight years in prison.

In May, a jury convicted Ricky W. Outlaw of charges of battery and criminal conversion. On Aug. 11, while on parole, he stole a six-pack of beer from Mark’s City Market, 3230 Fairfield Ave. A cashier followed him outside the store to confront him, and he kicked her and pulled out a knife.

A man came to the cashier’s aid, and Outlaw injured him with the knife. The man then pulled his own knife and stabbed Outlaw in the abdomen, according to court documents.
During Monday’s sentencing hearing, Outlaw complained vehemently about the quality of his defense provided by court-appointed attorney Anthony Churchward during the trial. “Justice wasn’t served in my trial,” Outlaw said. “(Churchward) was unfamiliar with my case. It was a spectacle.”

Surbeck disagreed and sentenced Outlaw to eight years in prison, and ordered it be served after he finishes the other prison sentence for which he was out on parole. Outlaw said he planned to appeal his conviction, and Surbeck asked Churchward to help start that process for Outlaw, who again protested the appointment of his attorney. Surbeck also refused to consider Outlaw’s injuries as a mitigating factor to sentence him to fewer years behind bars.

And one for the dildo-heads or what ever they call themselves:

As Melissa noted earlier in PEEK, from a CBS story: "Rush Limbaugh was detained for more than three hours Monday at Palm Beach International Airport after authorities said they found a bottle of Viagra in his possession without a prescription." He was reportedly returning from the Dominican Republic at the time which, as Terrance Heath notes, leaves a big, gaping hole in the story.

What was Rush doing in the Dominican Republic? Why was he returning from a country known for its thriving sex trade, with a bottle of Viagra that didn’t have his name on it?

From a 2001 Wired.com article: “…the Dominican Republic is one of the biggest sex tourism destinations in the world, thanks in part to Internet sites that extol the country as a "single man's paradise." Among banner ads for Viagra, members can shuffle through pictures of dull-eyed prostitutes engaged in flagrante delicto with the members/amateur pornographers.

Is it fair to go after Limbaugh for his woes? Of course, just as it's fair game to out gay politicians who support bigoted policy toward gays. Limbaugh inveighs against medical marijuana users regularly, making him a WORLD CLASS HYPOCRITE.

But I like Terrance's alliterative aspersions: These are not nice questions, which is why most people won’t ask them. But Rush is not a nice guy. And when a pundit whose party pokes its noses into people’s private affairs as a matter of policy is caught pocketing pills to pump up his penis, on his way back from a country plenteous with prostitutes…Well pardon me if I’m compelled to prod and ponder why this public personality required a prescription for his penis in that place, and where he put it while he was there.
