Woman Met Through Online Dating Site Tries To Burglarize Man's House

This turned out to be a rather hilarious event...  A man in Thousand Oaks met a woman (Genoveva Nunez-Figueroa) online and dated her several times and she later tried to burglarize his home.  The first attempt was unsuccessful and the second attempt was a complete disaster as she became stuck in his chimney and the Ventura County Fire Department had to be called to rescue her during an hour-and-a-half hour ordeal in which the man's chimney was dismantled brick by brick and the woman was lubricated with dish soap in order to more easily dislodge her.

Penny Stock Promoter Gets Slap On the Wrist by SEC

Divorce proceedings between Alima Beg Babikian and John Babikian revealed that Mr. Babikian was behind AwesomePennyStocks.com, an online newsletter that promoted worthless penny stocks to greedy investors wishing to make a killing in the stock market.  In a typical "pump and dump" scheme, penny stock promoters such as Mr. Babikian buy large stakes in worthless penny stocks and then begin to hype them all over the internet including to their subscribers and once the price rises to certain level, the promoters dump their shares into the open market and make a killing.  Mrs. Babikian claimed in divorce proceedings that the 26 year-old Mr. Babikian made around $100 million as a penny stock promoter.  It was not long before the SEC caught wind of Mr. Babikian who owned homes in Los Angeles, a collection of cars including a $1 million Bugatti sports cars, and even spent some time living in Monaco.  Now, the SEC has stepped in and slapped Mr. Babikian with a $3.6 million fine without him admitting any wrongdoing which is a nominal sum compared to the amount he made from his dubious venture.

Iraqi War Veteran Working as a Liquor Store Clerk Stops Armed Robber

Typically, store clerks at liquor stores tend to make little money and are often women.  These jobs are very dangerous for the amount of pay primarily because of robberies that can turn into deadly encounters.  One way to even the odds as the ChildPeople.com found out is for liquor store owners to hire veterans like Jon Lewis Alexander who did four tours of duty in Iraq, worked as a prison guard, and also served as a bounty hunter.  In the video below, an armed robber enters a liquor store while smoking a cigarette with his left-hand and holding a gun behind his back with his right-hand.  The robber walks up to the store counter and demands money from the store clerk, Jon Lewis Alexander, then brandishes his gun.  In one seamless motion, Jon is able to push down the robber's right-hand onto the counter as he reaches for his own gun from behind his waist and shoves the gun into the robber's mouth with his right-hand.  The training and nerves of steal that Jon must have are incredible.  Watch the video below to see the security surveillance video from inside the liquor store.
