The victim’s daughter and son-in-law had left a clock containing the hidden camera in the woman’s room after officials at Quadrangle allegedly dismissed their complaints about abuse. They went to police with the video, which showed the elderly woman struggling to flee her room and escape torment by the aides, authorities said.
Samirah Traynham, 22, struck the woman in the face and head as the woman struggled to put her shirt on and shoved her in her bed, according to a police affidavit. Tyrina Griffin, 21, “shadow boxed” with the patient and danced with a bed post in a manner that the woman’s relative likened to a stripper’s pole dance, the affidavit said. Ayesha Muhammad, 19, told police that she and her co-defendants blocked the patient from leaving her room several times but denied having any physical contact with her, it said.

Rev. David Wilkerson | Church founder, 79
The Rev. David Wilkerson, 79, founding pastor of Times Square Church in New York City and author of the best-selling book The Cross and the Switchblade, died Wednesday in a car accident in East Texas, said Texas Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Tela Mange. His car crashed head-on into a tractor-trailer rig after veering into oncoming traffic on U.S. 175 about 95 miles southeast of Dallas.
Mr. Wilkerson founded the nondenominational Protestant Times Square Church in 1987 in an area of Manhattan that was then riddled with X-rated movie houses, strip clubs, prostitution, and drugs. He also founded Teen Challenge, which uses a biblically based recovery program for drug addicts.
In The Cross and the Switchblade, he wrote about his early years in New York administering to drug addicts and gang members. The 1963 book became a best-seller and was made into a movie starring Pat Boone.

But here’s some good news for Casey with regard to the numbers game: Keystone voters favor “Generic” Democrats for Congress over “Generic” Republicans – 42 percent to 36 percent. The sugar coating: Casey’s just about the most generic Democrat – and, as far as we can tell, human being – there is! [Politics PA]
While every City Council candidate says s/he wants to utilize technology,  only Bill Green is putting forward a pretend plan that does it. He’s calling it “Open Philadelphia Government,” which essentially means “We will (see: wish we could) go paperless!” Citywide wireless internet for all! (Marge Tartaglione, by her own admission, is ready to go blind over the idea.) [Metro]
“Drill, baby, drill”…is not what protesters were chanting at a Marcellus Shale Advisory Commission meeting outside the Department of Environmental Protection yesterday. One activist who made it inside got kicked out after calling Lt. Governor Jim Cawley a “prostitute.” [Post-Gazette]

What the average American doesn’t know is that less than 20 percent of all imported oil comes from the Middle East and that the reason for much of the heightened prices is because of pure speculation and fear stoked by news stories of unrest in the region. And what event caused the greatest regional unrest in the past 25 years? The Iraq war. Yeah, the Iraq war. And the unrest has sent oil prices spiking upwards. For example, on the eve of the war, oil sold at $30 a barrel. By spring 2008, it was $126 a barrel. Today, it’s $108 per barrel.
Still, for the last few years, Exxon Mobil made more money on petroleum sales than any company in the history of capital. Last year, Exxon made $30 billion in profits. Thirty billion. For these ends, wars are fought. Tens, even hundreds, of thousands are slain. The Constitution is shredded. The economy is bottomed out. Schools are hollowed out. And politicians are but prostitutes in suits—with m …

TRENTON – Former GOP leader and Mercer County businessman Francis “Frank” Preto was sentenced to 11 years in state prison today in Mercer Court in a plea deal struck with prosecutors.
Preto, 59, of North Hanover, admitted he dealt more than billiards at his Players Club pool hall on Parkway Avenue in Ewing back in July 2007.
There he sold myriad drugs, weapons and dabbled in prostitution, police said.
In multiple raids at the places owned by Preto, police seized more than 150 handguns, rifles, shotguns and assault weapons, rounds of ammunition, hollow point bullets, cocaine, marijuana, psychedelic mushrooms, gambling machines and drug packaging materials, according to prosecutors.
At his Community Search and Abstract real estate title search company on the 1100 block of Whitehorse-Mercerville Road in Hamilton, police found a duffel bag with pre-packaged packets of cocaine.

That’s the way Fran Murphy was at Archbishop Carroll. It’s why alumni, former coaches, and former standout sports stars, student-athletes Murphy once coached tell Patch they still can’t believe what transpired last week.
Francis Murphy, 39, or “Murph,” as he was known by those who dealt with him, had been the athletic director at Carroll since 1999. He had been varsity baseball coach since 1998 and was the offensive coordinator of the Archbishop Carroll Patriots football team. Murphy has been placed on unpaid administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation and legal case that thrust him, and the school community into a spotlight nobody wants.
News of his arrest on April 15 sent a stunned ripple throughout the school, the extended Carroll community, the Philadelphia Catholic League and the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Murphy is charged with unlawful contact or communication with a minor, promoting prostitution, corruption of minors, attempted corruption of minors, and related offenses.
