The Epitome Of A Bad Son: Crazy-Haired 17-Year-Old D-Bag Popped For Pistol-Whipping His Mother To Death

This sick ba$tard had the nerve to be “laughing and smiling” at the time of his arrest. Via Huffington Post: Following a brief manhunt, authorities in Oklahoma arrested a 17-year-old boy accused of beating his mother to death with the butt of a shotgun. Henry ‘Hank’ Laird was reportedly “laughing and smiling” when he surrendered to police Wednesday afternoon in south Tulsa, according to KRMG. Police said it took 20 minutes to persuade Laird to give himself up, News On 6 reports. “We are just thankful we have [Laird] in custody,” Officer Jill Roberson told Tulsa World. “There has already been one tragedy out of this. We definitely did not want another one.” Henry Laird’s mother, Linda Laird, 56, was found dead Tuesday morning. The Oklahoma State Medical Examiner’s Office determined that she suffered “blunt force trauma to the head and neck” and ruled the death a homicide, CBS reports. Police discovered the victim’s body at the bottom of a staircase in her home. Prior to locating Laird, police arrested 19 year old Josiah Israel Sklar at a motel. Sklar, Laird’s alleged accomplice, told police he was present Monday night when the suspect allegedly bludgeoned his mother to death with the thick end of a shotgun. Arrest reports say Laird struck his mother at least 20 times using the weapon, FOX 23 reports. Laird is charged with first-degree murder. What a monster. This youth seriously needs help.

Kate Middleton Portrait Artist Responds to "Vicious" Criticism

Kate Middleton’s portrait painter is speaking out in defense of his highly criticized, much maligned and often memed illustration of the Duchess of Cambridge. After receiving less-than-glowing reviews (to put it mildly), Paul Emsley revealed to Hello! that he and his family were upset by some of the negative feedback. Considering the Kate Middleton portrait was the biggest commission of his career, “I’d be inhuman if I said it didn’t affect me,” the award-winning artist said. “When you take on commissions like this, it is hazardous and you absolutely expect a bit of flak, but I expected nothing like the criticism I have received.” “I didn’t expect it to go to the levels it did.” While Kate told reporters she thought the painting was just “brilliant,” more than a few media outlets and fans of the royals were far less glowing. The near universal reaction was that it made the gorgeous Duchess look older and duller than her 31 years; even more unflattering, hilarious memes followed. After spending four months on it, Emsley likened the disparagement his work received to a “witch hunt” and “circus” that took an emotional toll on his family. “At first the attacks were so personal and vicious that there was a point where I doubted that the portrait of the duchess was any good,” he confesses. However, “now I’ve had time to reflect on it, I am still happy with it and am getting on with my life. There is nothing I would have changed,” he said. The 65-year-old painter suggested that perhaps the portrait doesn’t photograph well … which would be ironic in that there are like no bad Kate Middleton pics . What do you think of the Kate Middleton portrait?   Stunning! It’s okay I guess? Stunning … ly bad View Poll »

Colette Harrington Accuses Justin Bieber of Rude Gym Behavior, Possible Water Bottle Spitting

Everyone is hating on Justin Bieber these days. Just hours after a report leaked that claims Bieber slept with Mimi Jenson while still dating Selena Gomez , a North Carolina radio host named Colette Harrington has come out and accused Bieber of acting like a total jerk inside a gym yesterday. Here is what she alleges went down: Working out at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel alongside Bieber and a couple members of his entourage, Harrington says Bieber rebuffed her request for a photo. He then went on to mock her workout routine, as Harrington explains to TMZ : “I always count out out loud my reps. Then Justin starts imitating me and whenever I’d get to 20 he and his buddy would say ‘Shut the F’ck up.'” After doing her best to ignore the insults, Colette says someone – who may have been Bieber or an individual in his group – actually spit Gatorade into her water bottle when her back was turned. Harrington filed a complaint with the hotel and added that she plans to sell the water bottle on eBay and will donate the profits to a local Ronald McDonald house where she volunteers. Bieber’s rep, meanwhile, denies all allegations. He simply says his client was working out at the gym with a trainer and the duo were trading jokes with one another, not directing any barbs at anyone else. Do you believe him?

Jenelle Evans Divorce Imminent? Assault Charges Filed Against Courtland Rogers

Jenelle Evans’ divorce from Courtland Rogers looks like a matter of when, not if. She says she’s not taking any more “abuse” from her husband of six weeks and has filed five assault charges against him, according to a new report. The pregnant Teen Mom 2 star went to court this morning and filed four charges of assault on a female – and one charge of battery of an unborn child. The couple have been arguing since he went out and got drunk with pals Sunday night, leaving Jenelle Evans at home – and accusing him of cheating. Tweeting non-stop, @PBandJenelley_1 ripped her man a new one, said she was “heartbroken” over his actions, and called “time out” on their marriage. She was hospitalized with a miscarriage scare two nights later. Jenelle has not elaborated on her medical condition, and if she had lost the baby, we probably would have heard about it … but she far from pleased. Just a week after she confirmed her second pregnancy, the mother of three-year-old Jace has clearly lost all faith in her husband, and is mad as hell. Coming out fighting earlier today, she declared that she is getting a divorce ASAP, and has now filed charges of assault against her spouse of 51 days. Rogers admits that he “f–ked up” by getting drunk Sunday and for peacing out on his pregnant wife, but is adamant that he never cheated or abused her. “I did not hit my wife,” Courtland tells Radar . “This is not true at all.” A source tells the gossip site that Jenelle has bruises on her face – from the alleged assault – and that she has every intention of taking this seriously. Evans has been known to reconcile with guys almost as quickly as she flies off the handle, which is saying a lot … but we wouldn’t hold our breath here.

You Can’t Be Serious: Deaf Man Stabbed With Kitchen Knife After Sign Language Mistaken For Gang Signs

WTF????!?? Deaf Man Stabbed After Sign Language Mistaken For Gang Signs Via Gawker reports : A deaf man in Burlington, North Carolina, was stabbed multiple times after his sign-language conversation with another deaf man was mistaken for gang signs. The incident took place Wednesday afternoon on East Morehead Street, where 45-year-old Terrance Ervin Daniels was exchanging words in sign language with another man. Police say Daniels was suddenly approached by 22-year-old Robert Jarell Neal, and stabbed multiple times with a kitchen knife. He managed to make his way to a nearby intersection, where he collapsed on a patch of grass. Emergency services eventually made their way to the scene and transported Daniels to Alamance Regional Medical Center in stable condition. Neal was arrested a few hours later and charged with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill, inflicting serious injury, and felony assault on a handicapped. According to Burlington Police staff Sgt. Mark Yancey, it was determined that Neal had mistaken Daniels sign language for gang signs. Yancey added that Neal himself is not a member of a gang. We should have seen this coming when their rival gang named themselves “Please stop stabbing me.” Wait, what? Let’s ignore the fact he is deaf for a moment, the guy just went around randomly stab who he thought was gang members? SMH!!!!!!!!!!

Tell ‘Em Why You Mad Son! Study Shows People Who Vent Their Anger Live Longer Lives

Here’s a lil FYI for ya! If you mad be mad cuz it might add an additional two years to your life! A new study published in the Health Psychologies journal by a team of German researchers shows that people who release their anger live an average of two years longer than those who hold their tempers in. The study followed 6,000 people, primarily Italians and Spanish folks and found that “repressors,” the patients who internalized their emotion, often experienced an elevated pulse which increases the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and other medical problems. In findings published in the journal Health Psychologies, the analysis of 6,000 patients showed those who internalized anxiety ran the risk of an elevated pulse — increasing the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and other ailments. On a positive note, repressors were found to recover from illness more quickly — likely due to their discipline. Shutterstock
