On September 1, North Carolina man by the name of Matthew James Phelps has been charged with murder after stabbing his wife, Lauren Ashley-Nicole Phelps, to death. Phelps claims he was under the influence of cough and cold medicine and does not recall what time it was when he found his hands and dead wife covered in blood with a bloodied knife nearby. Calling 9-1-1 upon waking up to the gruesome scene, Phelps had sounded dazed and confused, according to the operator, freaking out when he realized what he had done. Taking Coricidin, a cold syrup used to suppress common colds, to fall asleep, Phelps had consumed “more medicine than [he] should have” which had caused a cough-syrup-induced psychosis. However, Coricidin contains an ingredient

While it was suspected that these deaths were suspiciously connected in some way, it was questionable as to how they were connected. However, it was noticed by two firefighters monitoring calls that both families had announced that the victims had ingested Tylenol prior to collapsing. The firefighters, Phillip Cappitelli and Richard Keyworth “call[ed] the coroner who confirms capsules of Tylenol obtained from both victim homes and finds 65 milligrams of cyanide in some of them” (Rowe.)

Observed flight 5990 to DFW at gate B4 being worked by Piedmont agents Chelsey and Jeannette. Agents used many of the elevate behaviors before boarding by greeting customers with a smile, listening to their needs and offering customers options. Agents did not ask if they could be of further assistance. A correct Welcome announcement was made which included information for Basic Economy customers. Several minutes later an announcement was made advising customers they had to “hold off” boarding followed by an apology. Nice job! Boarding began within 10 minutes after the delayed boarding announcement. Agents followed the correct procedures when boarding an UM. The dual lane sign was positioned against the wall and was not used. The sizer was

To begin, the transportation system and the methods they use have greatly impacted both how and where people decide to live. The transportation system is a very important aspect to any nation’s economy. As stated, transportation systems also offer opportunities for terrorists who wish to disrupt and damage transportation systems and injure an immense number of people. In 1985, TWA Flight 847 was hijacked on a flight from Athens to Rome. The plane was overtaken by Shitte Hezbollah terrorists who desperately wanted to know the identity of the passengers with Jewish sounding names. The two terrorists who are of a Lebanese decent that were armed with a 9 millimeter gun and grenades made the plan land in the city of Beirut in Lebanon. As the hijackers

Cox conducted the inventory search, which revealed the following narcotics / paraphernalia in the vehicle:

Poetry isn 't just those long sonnets you had to analyze in high school. It’s a verse, almost like the author is talking directly to you, telling you their story. Emotion pours out of poetry, just as if you were pouring water into a glass. It may get a bad reputation because of the somewhat uninteresting Shakespearean poems, where the language is difficult to understand and difficult to enjoy. Poetry is broad, and can be almost anything rhythmic. There is no topic poetry has to follow. There are no guidelines for poetry. Its just creativity pouring out of the author.

The Rendlesham Forest incident, or better known as it's nickname "Britain's Roswell, occurred over a series of nights in December 1980. According to numerous reports from cops, citizens and military commanders the UK may have dodged a potential UFO nuclear attack 35 years ago.

Forensic science consists of a variety of fields such as in this case Forensic Pathology, Toxicology, and Biology were used to help solve the murder. Forensic Pathology was used to determine the cause of death by conducting an autopsy on the Johnson body. Coming to a conclusion, that Denise Johnson’s cause of death was due to asphyxiation (also known as strangulation)2,9. The pathology unit also determined that her death was a forced and violent death. Given the facts of how the victim died it provides the officers with an idea on how the murder was committed. Secondly Forensic toxicology is the use of toxicology, pharmacology, clinical chemistry and analytical chemistry to help legal and medical investigation of poisoning, death, and drug use. A drug test was conducted on Johnson’s body in order to evaluate the type and amount of illegal or legal drugs that were taken. A drug test can normally detect all prescription drugs, and as well as alcohol and illegal drugs such as, cocaine, heroin, morphine, codeine, antidepressants and phencyclidine. According to Johnson’s toxicology reports, the only drug found in her body was heroine9. Lastly to have a better understanding of the case, it was important to know what had happened to Denise. Therefore the forensic biology unit conducted a rap kit to determine if Johnson was sexually assaulted. The forensic biology division is responsible for applying their biology knowledge to the law enforcement, which also includes forensic

On July 19, 1989 United flight 232, a DC-10 aircraft took off from Denver’s Stapleton International Airport on route to Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. The DC-10 aircraft was manufactured by McDonnell Douglas. It has three General Electric CF6-6 engines, two that were wing mounted and one that was tail mounted. The number two engine, located on the tail, had a pre-existing defect introduced when it was manufactured. It was known as a hard alpha inclusion which causes cracks to form early in the lifetime of the fan disks. However, the cracks were too small to detect by the naked eye and overtime grew to a size large enough to bring the plane down on that fatal day.

When Freedom Airlines flight 121 went down over the Pacific Ocean, no one ever expected to find survivors. Seraphina is the only survivor, a stunningly beautiful sixteen year old girl who cannot remember her name or any other details of her life. She was discovered floating among the wreckage,alive, making headlines across the globe. Even more strange is that her body is miraculously unharmed and she has no memories of boarding the plane. No one knows how she survived. And no one can explain why her DNA and fingerprints can’t be found in a single database in the world.She proves to be extremly intelligent and very stong and athletic, and is able to do things that are abnormal. Seraphina struggles to piece together her forgotten past and

The NTSB used every source they had to investigate Alaskan Flight 261, resources that did not even seem applicable. Everything from retrieving the accident to digging into maintenance and company records, also pulling all parts that were left from the wreckage apart and examining them as thorough as possible. Then coming to a conclusion and recreation of what exactly happened prior to and during the accident.

Alaska Airlines Flight 261 was departing from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to Seattle, Washington, with a layover stop at San Francisco, California on January 31, 2000. The aircraft was a McDonnell Douglas MD-83 and had 5 crew members and 83 passengers on board at the time of its accident. It was nearly 4 hours into the flight when it crashed into the Pacific Ocean near Anacapa Island, California. All of the passengers and crew members perished. The cause of the accident resulted from an “inflight failure of the horizontal stabilizer trim system jackscrew assembly’s acme nut thread.”(NTSB, 12/10/2002) There were a couple of contributing factors that led to this failure and accident. The first factor is the lubrication intervals at which Alaska

Modern forensic toxicologists and serologists analyze various body fluids, tissues, and organs to detect drugs, poisons, and possible causes of crimes and deaths to aid in the process of criminal investigations. Alcohol/drug, and DNA analysis are some of the primary objectives of the forensic toxicologist and serologist. Advances in scientific research and technologies, and the advent of the forensic laboratory have allowed the forensic toxicologist and serologist to carefully analyze and segregate body fluids excreted by assailants or attackers in varying criminal acts.

Douglas came home to a surprise.” Hello dear, look!”, his mother was in the middle of the room holding an envelope. Douglas had a pretty good idea of what it was, so he rushed over in a panic and grabbed the envelope. He was hesitant on opening it, a slight feeling of fear and excitement ran through his veins. Douglas finally worked up the courage and there it was, he read the words, ACCEPTED. He was so excited he nearly jumped out of his shoes! He danced around the room then went into the kitchen and grabbed his mother so she could dance too. Ever since Douglas was a boy, his dream was to go to Dayton University and become a journalist. He was leaving in three months to go to the University, barely enough time to say goodbye, he thought.
