Coroner: Wife of decapitated Georgia man was killed, dumped in lake

While fishing in Lake Oconee two fishermen spotted a body and called authorities immediately. This body ended up being identified as an 87-year-old Georgia woman named Shirley Dermond. She had been hit on the head with something and left in the lake. She was the wife of 88-year-old Russell Dermond. After not hearing from them for awhile their friends went to check on them in their million-dollar waterfront home and found Russell’s decapitated body in the garage. Shirley was nowhere to be found and it was presumed she was abducted since her phone, car, and purse were all still in the house. At this time there are no known suspects and Russell's head is still not found.

Judge under fire for rape sentence, implying victim was promiscuous

Sir Young, 20 year-old teacher, admitted to raping a 14 year-old girl in her own high school. The judge on the case could have sentenced Young to at least 20 years in jail but instead decided only on a 45-day sentence. This extremely minimal sentence was backed up by the fact that this girl was supposedly very promiscuous; reported as having three sex partners and giving birth once.  This is causing a lot of controversy because the victim later killed herself and in addition to his minimal jail time Young also is required to serve 250 hours of community service at a rape crisis center. It is feared that because of this case, rape victims will not feel comfortable stepping forward or even going to centers when rapist themselves could be working there.
