A Houston driver has been charged with felony failure to stop and render aid after a deputy constable, making a routine traffic stop, discovered a body on the passenger side that had apparently landed there during a traffic accident 10 minutes earlier, the Houston Chronicle reports.

Despite a shattered front windshield, driver James John Onak, 45, told the deputy he didn’t realize a dead body with a missing leg was in the passenger seat, police tell the newspaper.

"The impact caused the victim to be impaled through the windshield and it was positioned in the floor board of the passenger side," says police Capt. Jason Finnen, KRIV-TVreports.

Accused child Murderer Steals Cop Car, on the Run

June 26, 2011 Leave a comment

Authorities released a photo of Shaun Bosse, who they say escaped from an Oklahoma jail on Sunday.

A manhunt was under way Sunday for an Oklahoma jail inmate who overpowered two deputies and stole one deputy’s car in escaping from custody, authorities said.

Shaun Bosse, 27, is charged with three counts of first-degree murder and one count of arson. He is accused of killing Katrina Griffin, 24, and her two children — Christian, 8, and Chastity, 6 — on July 23, according to CNN affiliate KOCO.

Bosse stole a black 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix in his escape, said McClain County Undersheriff Bill Shobe. The car, which was newly purchased, has a paper tag, he said.

The car was last seen going northbound out of Purcell, Oklahoma, at about 10:25 a.m. (11:25 a.m. ET), Shobe said.

Elliot Millner

Approximately 35 years after the fact, the state of North Carolina is coming to grips with its dark history of forced sterilization. Although many states in the U.S. had varying forms of eugenics programs during the early 1900′s, most of those programs were abandoned post-World War II, because of the negative associations with Nazi Germany’s efforts at racial purity. However, unlike most states, North Carolina not only continued its program of forced sterilization, it expanded its program until the early 1960′s.
