FLIPPER PART 2 - JODEL LEVEILLE FLIPS OFF AND YELLS PROFANITY AT JUDGE
On Wednesday, Jodel Leveille, 24, appeared before Miami-Dade Judge Ellen Sue Venzer for a bail hearing. Mr. Leveille thought it was the opportune time to let the judge know how he felt about her and the police who arrested him. Levelle, who was being arraigned on battery and criminal mischief charges, yelled profanity at the judge while flipping his middle finger, grabbing his crotch and telling her to die. The judge, who was unmoved by the defendant's outrageous behavior, didn't not hold Levelle in contempt of court, but set his bail at $17,000.00 and ordered him to undergo a psychological evaluation.

Rickesha Burns Accused of Shoving Vibrator Into 2-Year-Old Son's Anus
From PhoenixNewTimes.com
A Phoenix woman is accused of shoving a vibrator into her 2-year-old son's anus, and doctors told police that surgery will be required to remove it.
According to court documents obtained by New Times, 21-year-old Rickesha Burns called police Sunday, reporting that her son was bleeding from his anus.
Burns said she didn't know what happened.
She said she was at a park with her son, and while she was "looking at a text message for about 10 seconds," a boy she didn't know at the park did "something" to her son, according to the documents.
"She said she does not know what he did, but is sure he did something," a probable-cause statement says.
The boy was brought to Phoenix Children's Hospital, and doctors discovered that he has numerous bruises around his anus, a "hanger type" bruise on his hip, and yet another bruise on his neck.
Doctors also found an object lodged in his rectum, which appears to be "a vibrator or some other sex toy."
Police interviewed Burns, who still claimed that a teenage boy at a park did it, even though she "believes it is her vibrator," and police found the boy's blood on her shirt, according to court documents.
Phoenix Police Officer James Holmes says there was zero evidence that the boy was assaulted at the park.
Burns told police that she "worked hard to get her son back and would not do anything like this to hurt her son."
[C]ourt records show that Burns was investigated for child abuse in 2011, but it doesn't appear that criminal charges were ever filed.
The boy was slated to have surgery to get the vibrator removed, according to court documents....
Meanwhile, Burns was booked into jail on charges of sexual conduct with a minor, and child abuse. She's being held without bond.

DEION SANDERS CHILD CUSTODY JURY MAKES DECISION
DALLAS (CBS 11 NEWS) - After two weeks of mudslinging testimony, the child custody hearing is over between former Dallas Cowboy and NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders and his estranged wife Pilar.
A 12-member jury voted 11-1 to grant Deion sole custody and conservatorship of the couple’s 13 and 11-year old sons. The couple will share custody and conservatorship of their 9-year old daughter, though Deion has the power to determine where she will live....
Pilar Sanders’ attorney said they would appeal, calling it just “halftime” in the case. Issues with a prenuptial agreement, visitation and child support are still unresolved.

BAAUER'S 'HARLEM SHAKE' COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT
According to NYTimes.com, Hector
Delgado, a former reggaetón artist turned evangelical preacher in Puerto Rico,
and Jayson Musson, a rapper from Philadelphia, are seeking
compensation from Mad Decent Records for the unauthorized use of their voices
on "Harlem Shake," a song
that had gone viral on the Internet and then climbed to the top of the pop
chart.
"Neither [Delgado nor Musson] gave permission to the song’s producer and writer, Harry Bauer Rodrigues, who records under the name Baauer, to use snippets of their records, they said. 'It’s almost like they came on my land and built a house,' Mr. Delgado said.
The label and Mr. Rodrigues [have] declined to comment. But the tale of how an obscure dance track containing possible copyright violations rose to the top of pop charts illustrates not only the free-for-all nature of underground dance music but also the power of an Internet fad to create a sudden hit outside the major-label system....
The label initially offered 'Harlem Shake' as a free download, then began charging for it in June as part of EP.
But sales of the song did not shoot up until last month, when it became the soundtrack for a YouTube dance craze. The fad involved people posting wacky videos of themselves dancing convulsively in absurd costumes to the first 30 seconds of the track, which begins with Mr. Delgado, whose stage name was Hector El Father, singing, 'Con los terroristas' ('With the terrorists'). Mr. Musson sings 'Do the Harlem shake' 15 seconds into the track, a cue for the dancers to thrash around wildly." (Click here to read more)
