35 year old Mum terrified of her own 9 year old child who violently attacks

When 35 year old Chloe Peck collects her 9 year old daughter from school she is filled with a dread which sometimes makes her want to walk past the gates without stopping.
Because when she meets Macey, nine, the single mum has no idea if she will be faced with her well-behaved, ­affectionate child – or the violent ­“nightmare” who regularly causes her physical injury.
Two years ago, Macey developed a habit of flying into uncontrollable rages and she will now lash out on a daily basis – screaming, beating and throwing any available object at her mother.

Desperate Chloe, who often resorts to hiding in her room, has asked authorities for help for herself and Macey – yet her pleas have fallen on deaf ears.
Macey’s school has twice ­contacted social services but she has been rejected for treatment as her behaviour was not considered to be at “crisis point”.
Chloe said:

“I would just love for ­someone to listen and get her assessed. Do I have to end up in hospital to get support? One minute she’s adorable, the next a monster – it’s Jekyll and Hyde.

“She’ll get so angry and ­violent, ­hitting, kicking or throwing any object in sight at me and then it’ll be like a comedown.

“She’ll get down and start apologising, telling me she loves me and she’s sorry. “I feel guilty because although she’s remorseful I’m so upset I can’t comfort her. I just want her to go away.

Chloe told how she and her other children live in fear of Macey, not knowing when her next fit of rage will come.
She said:

“In the past week, ­rather than me hiding in my room we have fitted metal bolts on the kitchen door so that if she goes into a fit of rage we can put her out in the hallway to calm down.

“Family and friends are shocked when I say what’s happened. Macey tends to ­behave the way she does when it is just us in the house – not around strangers or other people.

“But they know it’s true. Obviously my other kids witness it and they’d never doubt me ­anyway. The school knows I’m at breaking point, which is why it stepped in. But she doesn’t kick off at school, she’s more clingy with the teachers.

“It’s just me she attacks at home – and her siblings if they try to intervene. I’m 5ft 6in, she comes up to my ­shoulders. Half the reason I try to put space between us when she’s in a rage is I’m worried I might lose control and hit back.”
The distraught teaching ­assistant,added:

“I feel guilty, like I’m failing her as a mother, but my friends and family remind me my other children do not have anger problems. The thing is, she is lovely when she is not in a rage. You would never know. People don’t believe me when I say because she is such a lovely girl.”

Chloe recalled how Macey was a “sweet, quiet girl” growing up, who enjoyed dancing, ­swimming and playing by herself.
She said: “I was always very protective of her as I had problems in pregnancy and she was five weeks premature.

“I didn’t even get to hold her, she was rushed to the antenatal unit for a week before I could take her home. She had a few health problems she still has today – a lazy left eye and a ­connective tissue disorder – which means she has problems with her joints but it could develop and attack her organs.

“The condition’s problems don’t tend to show until they’re in late teens. She has to be checked every six months at the hospital to monitor it.”

But Chloe, who has three other children – Cienna, six, Lilani, 12, and Kian, 15, with Macey’s dad – has been unable to control her daughter’s ­behaviour for two years.

She said: “It started in the school ­holidays a few years ago. There was no reason I can think of that triggered it. Overnight, she went from this sweet, happy, docile child to this monster. “I told her ‘no’ to something trivial and she just flipped – started slapping my legs and screaming. It caused such a ­commotion that my neighbour asked if I was OK.”

Chloe explained that Macey’s behaviour and anger problems have spiralled out of control from that moment. There is also a pattern to her behaviour.

“It’s always when I tell her she can’t have or do something. It’s never over anything serious, just standard stuff that mums tell their kids they can’t do. It’s like she wants to control me.”

Macey’s rages, which typically last two hours, can happen up to three times a day. But in January things took a ­terrifying turn for the worse.
Chloe said:

“I was at the kitchen table in my dressing gown and I said ‘no’ over something. She grabbed the hood and pulled it over my head to ­strangle me. I was screaming, ­struggling to breathe.”

Fortunately, Macey’s brother stepped in and ­restrained her. Chloe said:

“He was furious with her, telling her she can’t do that to her mum. He seems to be the only one who can calm her down.”

A few weeks later, Macey beat her mum round the head until she fell to the ground in tears.

“I had to pick myself up and hide in my room. It was horrible”

Since then, it has escalated uncontrollably, with Chloe unable to do anything except let Macey burn herself out.

She added: “Nothing will calm her down – she wears herself out, basically.”

Macey’s school tried to help by contacting social services , ­recommending Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services. But she has been rejected twice and Chloe will now accept any help she can get.
She added: “We keep getting rejected. They say no in a letter. I’ve been left in the dark and it’s frustrating.”

Former officers acquited of manslaughter charges in Mathew Ajibade's death

The two former Chatham County Sheriff's deputies were on Friday, October 16, acquitted of involuntary manslaughter charges in the death of Mathew Ajibade, who died after he was tased while in restraints and then left unattended. The officers and a jailhouse nurse were however convicted of lesser charges. Jason Kenny, who used the stun gun on Ajibade, was found guilty of cruelty to a prisoner, which carries a possible prison sentence of 1 to 3 years.

Maxine Kenny was found guilty of falsifying records. The nurse, Gregory Brown, was acquitted of manslaughter charges by the judge earlier in the week after an investigator admitted he had been indicted based on incorrect information about jailhouse policies.

The jury did find him guilty of perjury for claiming he had checked on Ajibade when security footage shows he never did.

Ajibade's cousin, Chris Oladapo told NBC News that he was not surprised the officers were found not guilty of the top charge.
"I knew that that same system that failed Mathew would not be the system that got him justice," he said. "I had already warned my family not to expect anything. We expected nothing, and we got nothing"

22-year-old Ajibade, a student, was handcuffed to a restraint chair in an isolation cell after he allegedly hit his girlfriend and broke a deputy's nose while in the midst of what his family described as a bipolar episode on New Year's Day.

Officers also placed a spit mask over his mouth. He was found dead in the chair, still wearing the spit mask, in the early morning hours of January 2.

Graphic video obtained by NBC News showed deputies tasing Ajibade in the groin while he was in a restraint chair — a controversial device that Amnesty International has said should be banned. The coroner ruled Ajibade's death a homicide, citing abrasions, scrapes and bumps on his upper body and head.

PDP should account for N550bn, I did not steal 11bn from Kogi – Prince Audu

APC Candidate for the November 21 Kogi state governorship election, Prince Abubakar Audu has cleared the air on the N11 billion he allegedly looted as a governor of the State. 

Audu who debunked the report of the loot among other questions responded via a tweetChat with his followers on Thursday. The tweet exercise was coordinated by his social media team headed by Philip Obin (@PhilipObin), using the hashtag #AskAudu.

While speaking on the allocation received while in office and how his government judiciously used the various funds it got, Audu said, “When I was in office between 1999 – 2003, we received average monthly allocation of N350 million – about N16.8 billion for the entire 4 years of my tenure. 

With these, we paid all salaries, we built Kogi State University, Obajana Cement Factory (now owned and run by Dangote Cement), Confluence Beach Hotel, Stella Obasanjo Library, Paparanda Square, Govt. house (Lugard) House, Government Office, secretariat, the banquet hall, started the confluence stadium and built the Lokoja township stadium, others are the Fed. Medical Centre + equipped same with 25 state-of-art ambulances, NTA Kogi, Radio Kogi, Kogi Graphics Newspaper, 75 rural electrification projects, the presidential lodge, Governor’s lodge, Abuja, inter-state roads; We also built the specialist eye centre, commissioner’s quarters, 200 housing units, just to mention a few. 

In 2002, the Fed. Govt. instituted a panel to evaluate and reward performance. Out of 12 awards for the 36 state governors, I won 7 awards. Now, how could all these have been achieved?”

The former governor also alleged that his outstanding performance became a threat to the then ruling PDP, hence Kogi people were mobilized against him. He alleged that when they failed to achieve their initial intention, he was dragged before some anti-corruption agencies.

He said,”When the then ruling People’s Democratic Party saw me as a threat, they started instigating Kogites against me, and when the people couldn’t buy into that, having known the truth, they orchestrated my arrest, which led to my being dragged before the ICPC, CCB, CCT and EFCC.

”When all that failed, the then PDP led Kogi state government took over and issued a white paper, banning me from politics for 10 years. I proceeded to court, and the court ruled that the Kogi government has no such right to ban me from politics.

”The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, had also taken me to 7 courts in total (4 in Kogi and 3 in Abuja). In each of these cases, they’ll always pull out before judgment is passed and go back to frame up new figures; I was first accused of stealing N1.5bn, then N4bn, then N8bn and finally N11bn. It’s also on record that I was the most pursued politician by the EFCC, as the PDP wanted my head at all cost – always during elections.

”And so I ask all Kogites and Nigerians, how could my administration have achieved all we did with less than N6 billion, if N11 billion was missing? Again only the work I did in Kogi State stands there today. The PDP govt. since I left office, has received about N550 billion, without accounting for it.

”So the questions should be where have these funds gone? Why are Kogites still languishing in abject poverty? Why is Lokoja the dirtiest state capital in Nigeria? Why has EFCC been mute? 

Clearly the PDP led EFCC had a different agenda. I leave these thoughts to my fellow Kogites to mull over and ponder. The truth is out there for those who care to know but my happiness is that all well-meaning Kogites know the truth and have pledged to support me and the APC to victory ahead of the November 21 Governorship election, as I promise to do even more, when we eventually take up power,” He asserted.

Photo: Labourer left paralysed after he fell from bunk bed

Bilal Syed suffered horrific head and spinal injuries as he turned on his bed with no railings and fell from a height of 5.5 feet. The 30-year-old sports and outdoor lover, who came to Dubai in September with dreams of earning money and securing a decent living, ended up as a quadriplegic in Rashid Hospital, within 28 days of his arrival.

The heavy built semi-skilled labourer with a high school qualification from Lahore, Pakistan, had begun work at a metal fabrication unit. He underwent spinal surgery at Rashid Hospital holds out hope of some improvement in some time.

"I am feeling better and will walk," he whispers defiantly when asked about his health.

His brothers, who take turns keeping vigil by his bedside, pray fervently for a miracle. Pam Gouri, volunteer from Valley of Love, told Gulf News that such injuries were resulting in serious loss of productivity and quality of life for these poor workers.

"Every year many white collar workers fall from bunk beds and suffer from lacerations, sprains and fractures. But as volunteers we attend to at least 4-5 cases of serious spinal injuries rendering the individual either a paraplegic or quadriplegic."

Photos: Naked mother throws her 6-month-old baby out of a 6-floor window, says "the devil is in her"

Tenisha Fearson, 27, on Thursday, October 15, dangled her 6-month-old baby girl out a Bronx sixth-floor window, screaming "We are all going to die" Hallelujah" and Praise the Lord" before letting the child plunge to her death onto the concrete below, police said.

According to Tenisha's godmother Louella Hatch, as police were taking her away, she said “the devil is in her,” Neighbors described a chaotic scene before the sickening drop, with building residents yelling at the deranged naked woman when she began throwing household items out the window.

They screamed in terror and called 911 when they saw her bring the baby to the window. "She threw a baby out the window!" one witness screamed. Then, in a bizarre, ritualistic scene, Fearon lay on the floor surrounded by her other three children: two girls and a boy who were also naked and lying on their backs, according to next-door neighbor Gregorio Lopez.

Lopez, 47, ran to the roof after he heard neighbors scream and saw Fearon through a window, he said. "I actually thought that they weren’t alive when I saw them lying on the floor naked," Lopez said. But then, the maniacal mom “jumped up and started hitting the window,” he said. "That’s when I started calling for more help because I thought she might throw more (kids) out."

Junilah’s broken body was found on the pavement, officials said. Her shoe and Minnie Mouse headband still lay on the sidewalk. Emergency workers rushed the infant to St. Barnabas Hospital, where she was pronounced dead an hour later. Cops had to break down the apartment door to get inside and free Fearon’s children. Witness Lizette Rodriguez, 48, heard Fearon screaming and throwing things out the window before Junilah was cast out. "She was screaming, ‘We’re all gonna die’ and ‘Hallelujah’ and ‘Praise the Lord!’” Rodriguez said. Hatch, 76, couldn’t believe the young mother was capable of committing such a horrific act. "She needs help ...I want her to get help,"

Hatch told the Daily News. "Something’s got to be wrong. She wouldn’t do that." Hatch had just returned from a church meeting when someone told her a baby was thrown from a window. "When I realized it was my building ...I knew — that’s my goddaughter," she said. One of Fearon’s other three children — the oldest 10, the youngest 4 — were harmed and were all taken into the care of the Administration for Children’s Services after the incident. Paramedics took Fearon to Bronx Lebanon Hospital for a medical evaluation.

She was then expected to be transferred to Elmhurst Medical Center in Queens for a psych evaluation. Fearon was charged with murder late Thursday, cops said. "All I know is that Tenisha loved her kids...that’s all," said the suspect’s sister who refused to identify herself. Fearon was showing signs of instability in recent days, Hatch said. "She feels like the devil is in her. Yesterday I went to her home and that’s what she told me. She’s saying the same thing today. I told her, ‘You need help because you have other kids,’" Hatch told Daily News
