Former licensed nurse Nathan Sutherland on Thursday pleaded guilty to sexual assault and abuse of a vulnerable adult for impregnating a woman in a vegetative state in 2018 A former nurse at an Arizona long-term care facility has pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a female patient in a vegetative state, who later became pregnant and gave birth to a boy.  The pregnancy was discovered in December 2018 when an employee at the Hacienda Healthcare facility in Phoenix was changing the then-29-year-old victim and noticed she was in labor. Employees told police that they had no idea the woman, who is quadriplegic and mentally disabled, was pregnant.  Nathan Sutherland, a licensed practical nurse at the care home, was arrested in January 2019 after police collected DNA from all 36 male staff members at his workplace, and his sample matched the victim’s son.  On Thursday, Sutherland pleaded guilty to charges of sexual assault and abuse of a vulnerable adult. He is due back in court for a heari

Most keen sailors develop sea legs. Katie McCabe seems to have come into the world with hers fully formed.  When her parents returned home to Britain in 2008 after an epic three-year honeymoon on the high seas, they did so with a toddler who had learned to walk on a boat. Hazel and David McCabe, both keen sailors, had started married life with a ‘crazy idea to cross the Atlantic’. They’d upped sticks, sold their boat trip business in Devon, and took off in a converted trawler. They kept going, eventually completing a 14,000-mile odyssey. Now Katie, who is still only 14, is at it too, at the tiller of her very own boat. Atlantic swell: ‘After leaving Milford Marina, we were greeted by 3-metre seas. But we were sailing nicely' When we speak, she is fresh from her own record-breaking adventure. A fortnight ago she became the youngest person to sail around Britain single-handedly, in her 26ft vessel, breaking the record previously held by Timothy Long from Aylesbury who made the voyage

A serial pervert has been plaguing the Brooklyn neighborhood of Midwood for months now, repeatedly exposing himself to innocent, unsuspecting children—and he keeps getting off thanks to New York's soft, new bail reform laws. Even worse—the creep lives mere feet away from a local elementary school. Harry Zucker, 77, a white-haired man with a fondness for fondling himself in front of today's youth, has exposed himself a whopping five times since April 27, according to court records. However, Zucker keeps getting off scot-free because New York City judges are barred from imposing bail on the charges, which were all classified as misdemeanors.  Harry Zucker, 77, a white-haired man with a fondness for fondling himself in front of today's youth, has exposed himself a whopping five times since April 27 'Why is this guy still around?' a concerned dad told The New York Post on Wednesday.

Music icon Bob Dylan took a 13-year-old girl out on dates to the beach and nightclubs when he was 22, she claimed in her memoir. Catherine James, now 71, wrote that she was just 11 when she was molested by Dylan's nightclub owner friend, who then introduced her to the up-and-coming folk singer two years later when he played in Los Angeles. The unearthed revelations are included in her 2007 book, which has resurfaced weeks after a 68-year-old woman filed a lawsuit accusing the folk legend of sexually abusing her when she was 12 in 1965. James, who was abandoned by her mother while growing up in LA, claimed that Dylan would secretly pick her up from her orphanage school for dates on the beach, a visit to comedian Lenny Bruce's home, and backstage at clubs. Though his friend allegedly had an 'ill fetish for schoolgirls' and molested her, James says that Dylan never made a pass at her - though she described herself as 'obsessed' with the musician and relished her &#
