Greetings fellow Bizarros:

If you have ever wished you could just lock your wife up in a box, you might have something in common with the man in today's story.

An Indiana man is accused of forcing his wife into sexual slavery. A pessimist might think that that is basically what marriage is to begin with, but Kenneth Eugene Harden took things a little too far.

Harden's wife told police she met him online last year. He said he was a Godly man and they both talked about how much the Bible meant to them.

They soon married. A few months later, she said Harden revealed he's a sadist. You would think that would be something that should come up BEFORE the marriage.

What started out as experimentation in the bedroom escalated into abuse. Not only would he lead her around with a collar on - prosecutors said he would force her head and hands into a wooden box after her child went to school.

She told police there were also times he would duct tape or tie her up all day.

Charging documents go into graphic detail of the sexual abuse, all while she hoped and prayed someone would hear her through the apartment walls.

"We could hear them fighting sometimes and we heard a lot of loud noises upstairs, but I never thought anything of it," a neighbor said, who lives below the apartment where the alleged abuse occurred.

Police arrested Harden on domestic battery charges.

Bizarrely,
Lewis

Paraglider rescued from power lines in California

Firefighters in California said a paraglider who crashed into some power lines was rescued after being stuck for more than three hours. The Olivehurst Fire Department said the paraglider had been attempting to land at the Yuba County Airport as part of a training exercise when he went off course and crashed into some power lines. The Pacific Gas and Electric Company shut off power to the surrounding area while first responders conducted the rescue. "The difficulty was making sure that the lines were de-energized to make sure that our firefighters were safe before we could make patient contact," firefighter Randy York said. The paraglider was eventually brought back to the ground by a fire department bucket truck. "He's exhausted but all his vitals seem to be stable," York said.

Patient plays violin during brain surgery

A brain surgeon in London had a patient play her violin during a tumor removal to ensure her musical abilities weren't affected by the procedure. King's College Hospital shared video showing Dagmar Turner, 53, playing her violin while neurosurgeon Dr. Keyoumars Ashkan and his team removed her brain tumor. "We perform around 400 resections (tumor removals) each year, which often involves rousing patients to carry out language tests, but this was the first time I've had a patient play an instrument," Ashkan said. Ashkan said Turner's brain was mapped prior to the surgery to see which parts of her brain were active when she played her instrument. He said the tumor was dangerously close to areas of her brain that affect the fine motor skills of her left hand. The doctors were able to remove 90 percent of the tumor without any damage to Turner's musical abilities.

The Dallas squad should have talked to the 9/11 implosion specialist the government hired.


So... a carefully planned, expert demolition couldn't bring down a building in Dallas, but 3 steel frame buildings were brought down by 2 planes on nine eleven? Nope. Nothing suspicious there.


Lewis; This story of the human tongues in that researcher's home reminds me of when a doctor told me years ago about how police found 33 human penises in the refrigerator freezer of John Wayne Gacy before any bodies were found thus leading police to know there were 33 victims. -R.S.
