Mom Leaves Kids in Car to Hook Up With Man Across Parking Lot, Gets Arrested

A young mom put sexual desire over her children’s safety last weekend in a store parking lot in Lake Charles, La., and got arrested as a result.
Princess Marks, 25, allegedly dragged her daughters out in the middle of the night so she could "hook up" with her boyfriend in the parking lot.
She was caught by local police after a passerby reported that two young girls had been left alone inside an SUV with the windows rolled down.

It was around 12:40 a.m. that night when police allegedly discovered Princess performing oral sex on her boyfriend in another vehicle in the parking lot.
Her children, ages 7 and 5, were in her car alone across the lot. A spokesperson for the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office told a local radio station:
“Deputies responded in reference to a report of two young children left unattended inside an SUV with the windows left down and the SUV not running."
A concerned stranger discovered her children in the car. Police arrived and found Marks in another car where she could not even see the SUV.
For whatever reason, he was apparently parked so far away that she could not even keep an eye on the car as they “hooked up” inside of his.
“Marks also advised deputies that she was unable to see the children or her SUV from her boyfriend’s vehicle,” the police spokesperson revealed.
Princess was arrested by police and charged with child desertion. She was later released on a $5,000 bond, and her kids delivered to other family members.

I Can’t Divorce 2Face – Annie Macaulay

Nollywood actress and wife of award winning music artiste, 2face Idibia, Annie, has revealed that she will not allow her children go through the emotional trauma she went through when her parents divorced just when she was only nine years old. In a chat with The Entertainer, she advised that divorce should not be an option for couples who are having face-offs.


“Honestly, divorce is the worst punishment any parent could subject children to because it’s the children that will face the consequences of their actions. Divorce shouldn’t be considered as an option when couples face-off. It is advisable to settle rather than divorce. Why did you get married if you cannot forgive and reconcile with your partner,” she said. The actress, who just welcomed her second child for the musician, said her parents-in-law are her mentors when it comes to marriage. “I don’t wish my kids to pass through my experience regarding divorce. I always use my parents-in-law as an example and I try to emulate them in my marriage. After all these years, they are still deeply in love with each other. Even at their age, they still enjoy each other’s company and that is amazing” she said. (Nigeriafilms.com)

30-Year-Old Randy Man Rapes Neighbour's 2-Year-Old Daughter

30-year-old man, Mr. Ama Inya-Okoro, who was arrested on July 14 by the Ebonyi state police for raping a two-year-old girl, Favour in Afikpo North Local Gov­ernment area of the state has confessed to the crime and what led him do committing it.

The suspect was alleged to have raped the two-year-old girl while she was sleeping at the corridor of the house after she returned from school, According to The Sun.

The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Mr. Chris Anyanwu an Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP), who confirmed the incident said:

“On Monday 14th July, 2014, one Ama Inya-Okoro, 30-year old man from Ubeyi development centre in Unwana, in Afikpo Council area, was arrested for defiling little girl, Favour. The girl has been taken to hospital for treatment by his father Mr. Ude, Ebeke. The suspect confessed to the crime and will be charged to court for prosecution.

“This is another disturbing trend, the issue of rape, defilement and sex related offences.

I don’t know why we have regular oc­currence in the state. The people should not leave their children especially, female ones without close watch. Just like in this case, the girl was sleeping but nobody was there with her when the suspect took the advan­tage and had access to the girl.

So, parents should be careful and monitor their girls and ensure that they don’t send them on errand alone to avoid such cases of rape. I urge the people to always ensure that they raise alarm whenever they see such act and report it to the nearest police station” he said.

Anyanwu also said the girl had been taken to hospital for medical examination and treat­ment.

The accused, Ama Inya-Okoro who admitted to raping his victim in an interview with Crime Watch gave his reason for committing the shameful act saying:

“What happened was that I went to look for job as laborer on the fateful day but could not get any job and I returned home. As I was washing my cloth I saw the girl laying down sleeping wearing only pant, I rushed and carried her and have sex with her. It was ‘conji’ that caused it and I don’t have money to go for mature girls.”

Meanwhile the victim’s father, Mr. Ude Ebeke who said his daughter had gone to school before he left home that day said he was in church when he was informed of the incident by a neighbour who called him.

He, however, said his wife had travelled that day but that his sister was at home.

Apparently Miss Stella Egwu, the victim’s Aunty who was at home explained what happened saying:

“I was in my place cooking when the little girl came back from school and after some time she went and slept at the corridor. As I was cooking in the kitchen I heard voice calling us to come and see the man that was raping the little girl, I came out and saw the man standing with the girl, sperm in her private. As we were talking people gathered and took the suspect to the village square where they called police”.
