'A Jefferson City woman won't spend any time in prison after admitting to sex crimes against multiple children. Misti Fitzwater pleaded guilty to five different felonies Thursday.

A judge suspended Fitzwater's sentence and placed her on parole. Judge Robert Schollmeyer was very clear that he did not want to have to revisit the issue with her, saying "If there is a violation that is alleged, you and I will see each other again. You do not want that to happen."

Judge Schollmeyer went on to say, "If you and I see each other in this setting again, I assure you that I will do everything that is necessary to see that these sentences will be actually executed."

Fitzwater pleaded guilty to one charge of statutory rape, two of statutory sodomy and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child.

She was charged after having sex with two separate underage partners and allowing them to smoke marijuana in her car.'

'A 35-year-old Charlotte, North Carolina woman is not going to spend a day in jail – despite the fact that she ADMITTED to killing both her babies.

Katherine Anne Jennings, the mother of two babies who died under questionable circumstances in 2012 and 2013, has been sentenced to five years of probation. She plead guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the second baby’s death. Prosecutors did not charge her in the death of Katherine’s first baby.

On Dec. 13, 2013, 8-month-old Luke Stephen Phillips was sleeping with his mother on the couch. He was later found DEAD – the cause of death is suffocation.

The same thing happened to his brother James Robert Phillips, who was 4 months old when he died in June 2012. A medical examiner found that he had suffocated while sleeping with his mom.'

'A federal investigation found that, contrary to complaints from current and former students, Occidental College did not mishandle cases of sexual assault, except for delays in several cases during the 2012-13 school year.

But the report from the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights did find that the campus climate may be leading some students not to report sexual assaults they experience.

Occidental’s investigation started in 2013, at the beginning of a wave of activism around campus rape. The private liberal arts college in Los Angeles entered into a voluntary resolution this week with the Education Department to measure the climate on campus as it relates to sexual violence and to improve the speed with which the college investigates assault reports. The agreement ends the investigation, allowing the government to release its findings.

'A teen boy runs, and wins, against teen girls in a high school level competition. The winning part is not surprising. Men have some biological reasons for being physically superior to women. Testosterone increases their muscle mass, lung capacity, and upper body strength. Then there are all the subtle ways that make a boy/man faster and stronger: smaller Q-angles, denser bones, more efficient oxygenation.
...
The politically correct, confusing nonsense will end up depriving girls of opportunities. They’ll lose to boys who compete as girls. Title IX was meant to correct sex discrimination. With the Obama administration and the feather-brained school administrators across the country, Title IX is going to cause sex discrimination because gender identity is being willfully confused with biological sex. Women and girls with female DNA and biology will be pushed out by biological boys.'

'The Yale basketball player who was expelled in February after a university committee found that he had raped a fellow student sued the university on Thursday, accusing it of a “deeply flawed process.”

In the lawsuit and an accompanying statement released by a public-relations firm, the player, Jack Montague, who was once the team captain, suggested that Yale had chosen to make an example of him because of public criticism over its handling of the hot-button issue of campus sexual assault.'

'If you don’t recognize rape accusation culture, look up what happened at Vassar, where a freshman was expelled after being accused of rape a full year after having sex with a woman who’d given no indication at the time that the encounter was anything but consensual. Look up what happened at Brandeis, where a student accused his former boyfriend of sexual misconduct over their two-year relationship, including good morning kisses that were deemed nonconsensual because the kissed party was half-asleep.

'The other day, I was trying to think of the last time I heard the words “white men” uttered in a positive way. I came up blank.

The context for those two words is just about always negative. Sometimes people who think white guys are the problem—no matter what the problem might be—throw in the word “angry.” And “angry white men” then becomes an easy way to dismiss even legitimate concerns and grievances by white men.

A female Rutgers professor once wrote that mass murder was the result of “white male privilege.” The website Gawker once composed a list of the “worst 100 white men.”

Barack Obama said of Judge Merrick Garland, his nominee to the Supreme Court, “Yeah, he’s a white guy, but he’s a really outstanding jurist. Sorry.”

OK, he was kidding. But imagine if some chucklehead came up with a list of the “Worst 100 Black Men.” Or if some white male conservative politician nominated a like-minded African-American to the bench and said, “Yeah, he’s a black guy, but he’s a really outstanding jurist.”

'A university lecturers’ union has tried to defend its controversial decision to exclude straight, white men from equality conferences.
...
Today, a spokesman for UCU attempted to explain the decision – despite the blatant irony in banning a select group from the next equality summit.

The spokesman told Heat Street: “[Our] members voted to continue the convention whereby different groups of people meet at a conference to discuss unique obstacles they face in the workplace. This is standard practice throughout the trade union movement, and certainly not a new initiative.”

They added: “Anyone can attend the plenary sessions and there is also an equality reps conference that anyone interested in equality can attend. It is the specific four equality conferences (Black members, women, disabilities and LGBT) that are for people within those groups.”'

'Claire Fox, head of a thinktank called the Institute of Ideas, has penned a coruscating critique of “Generation Snowflake”, the name given to a growing group of youngsters who “believe it’s their right to be protected from anything they might find unpalatable”.

She said British and American universities are dominated by cabals of young women who are dead set on banning anything they find remotely offensive.

“It makes me sad that these teens and 20-somethings have become so fearful that they believe a dissenting opinion can pose such a serious threat,” Fox wrote in an article for Mail Online.

This hyper-sensitivity has prompted the University of East Anglia to outlaw sombreros in a Mexican restaurant and caused the National Union of Student to ban clapping as “as it might trigger trauma”, asking youngsters to use “jazz hands” instead.'

'A recent Head STYC* training event has been criticised by a number of students present as bringing up “irrelevant and confusing concepts” in a “condescending manner”, as officers in charge were accused of demonstrating sexism towards men and alienating the male audience.

The criticism is aimed mainly at the YUSU Women’s Officers and their choice to include an explanation of ‘mansplaining’ in their section of the training. ‘Mansplaining’ is a relatively new and controversial term which is broadly defined as ‘to explain something to someone, typically a man to a woman, in a manner regarded as condescending or patronising’. The term was brought up in a list of ‘dos and dont’s’ which were featured alongside topics such as manhandling and calling out sexism and homophobia.

'The French government is considering several measures aimed at combating sexism in video games, according to a report published this week by Le Figaro. Axelle Lemaire, the French Minister of Digital Affairs, met with representatives from the French video game industry last month to discuss the set of measures, Le Figaro reports, which include financial incentives and labels for games that give a "positive image of women."
...
Catherine Coutelle, a socialist deputy of the National Assembly, proposed legislation last year that would have excluded games that portray a "degrading image of women" from receiving government tax credits. The amendment was met with opposition from some industry groups, and was withdrawn in January. But in a response to Coutelle's proposition published on Tuesday, Lemaire signaled that her ministry still aims to "encourage the production of video games that promote equality between men and women," and to address "topics related to sexism and violence against women."

'Children as young as four should be taught in school about sexism and harassment to tackle the “ticking timebomb” of sexual bullying in classrooms, a Commons select committee has been told.

Experts working within schools and with young girls who suffer sexual violence and abuse inside and outside the classroom, were unanimous on Tuesday in calling for the mandatory teaching of issues around sexism.
...
“We need to make schools teach about sexism and about feminism, talk to children about how women have changed history, how women are inventors and scientists, so that they start to see that women are not just sexual objects.”'

'KOHN: And I have to say, this was also where I -- her part about how she blamed political correctness for sentencing him. Come on. Brock Turner is to blame for what happened here. And if his swimming career, if his steak time with his dad has suffered, well boo-hoo, shouldn't have done what he did. And this sort of notion that we should sort of pity him, it's related to, it is very much related to the men's rights and by extension the conservative movement in general for the last several years has attacked this notion that there is rape culture, has attacked this idea that we're getting too politically correct on campuses by trying to educate boys and girls about sexual assault and safety and responsibility, and said, 'Oh no, no, no, we're turning boys into -- they're too careful now, and everything is rape now, blah, blah, blah.' You know what? This is what happens. This is what happens.'

'Last week, a California judge sentenced former Stanford swimmer Brock Allen Turner to six months in jail for a horrifying sexual assault on an unconscious, alcohol-impaired woman. The resulting uproar over the sentence’s undue leniency risks missing the most important lesson of the case.

Contrary to current campus conventional wisdom, the Turner case shows that the best way to deal with a campus sexual assault problem is to rely on law enforcement professionals to protect women and to pursue justice, not on campus disciplinary systems run by amateur sex bureaucrats.

The backlash against Turner’s sentence is being exploited by a powerful but misguided movement to delegitimize law enforcement as the best way to handle campus sexual assaults. The accusers’ rights group Know Your IX has claimed that even reporting an assault to police could harm campus victims. “#copsoffcampus,” the group recently tweeted.

'A New York State Police investigator says a woman accused of fatally sabotaging her fiancé’s kayak on the Hudson River told an investigator she removed a plug on his kayak and manipulated his paddle.

Authorities say Angelika Graswald removed a drain plug from Vincent Viafore’s kayak in April 2015 and pushed a floating paddle away from him after his kayak capsized.

A Cornwall police officer testified Monday that Graswald appeared calm and emotionless after she was rescued.

State Police Senior Investigator Aniello Moscato also testified Graswald told another investigator she had pulled a plug on the kayak and manipulated the ring on Viafore’s paddle.'
