Commonly used household item savagely exposed cheating husband: ‘It's timestamped and often location-based'
A woman caught her husband cheating in one of the most bizarre ways — and it involved an item everyone is guilty of using. There are some obvious signs that someone isn't being faithful in a relationship — being sneaky with their phone, suddenly having to work late. But rarely do people think to pay attention to their partner's mouth hygiene habits. Paul Jones, a private investigator at ARF Investigators, helped a woman figure out her husband was cheating, thanks to a log of his tooth brushing. It's not as weird as it sounds. One of Jones' clients downloaded an electric toothbrush app to get her kids to properly brush their pearly whites. Well, little did she — or her conniving husband — realize that the app tracked every family member's brushing routine. 'Over time, the client noticed their partner's brushing history was being logged at odd times, times when they were supposedly at work,' Jones said, according to the Mirror. Eventually, the wife noticed a bizarre pattern when her husband was sudsing his mouth — especially when it was happening at times he was supposed to be at work, the outlet explained. '… in that time he had started an affair with a work colleague and used to have her over the family home on a Friday when the wife and kids were out of the house,' the investigator said. 'It's timestamped, often location-based, and emotionless. When a device says someone brushed their teeth at 10:48 a.m. when they were supposed to start work at 9 a.m., that's very hard to explain away.' Another very unexpected way technology can help expose dirty cheaters is by checking the person's supermarket loyalty apps, the ones that help shoppers save money and earn rewards, according to London-based private investigator Aaron Bond. He said a supermarket loyalty member app can reveal a lot. 'Clubcard data is limited, but it does tell you a date and location, which is easily accessible if you log into your account,' Bond told the Mirror. 'If your partner claims they were working or out with friends but the account shows they made a purchase in a completely different area, then it's a clear red flag.'

Convicted felons can own firearms in Texas; here's how
The Brief Felons can own firearms in Texas under certain circumstances, but it remains federally illegal. Five years must pass after the completion of their sentence, and they are only permitted to have the gun in their residence. Defense attorney Anthony Osso answers FAQ's around the law and restrictions HOUSTON - In Texas, a convicted felon can legally own a firearm - with some restrictions. Here's what you need to know. Under Texas Penal Code §46.04, individuals convicted of a felony may legally possess a firearm at their home five years after completing their sentence, including any parole or probation period. The law only allows possession at the person's residence. The same rule applies to family violence convictions. Texas law prohibits gun possession for five years after a misdemeanor conviction involving family violence. After that period, state law technically allows home possession of a firearm. Not in one's car or place of business, only their residence. Despite the Texas law, federal law does not allow felons to own or possess firearms under any circumstances. The federal Gun Control Act of 1968 prohibits anyone convicted of a felony from possessing firearms, ammunition, or explosives. This applies regardless of state-level permissions and can lead to federal charges. "The likelihood of them actually being prosecuted is slim, but it's still a violation of federal law," said Houston criminal defense attorney Anthony Osso. "The only time you really see that is a search warrant or if the person was violating other federal laws." This extends to individuals convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence and to those subject to certain restraining or protective orders, as outlined by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). Possession of a firearm is federally illegal under any circumstances for those convicted of these crimes. All firearms purchased through a federally licensed firearms dealer (FFL) — including at gun shows — require a background check through the FBI's National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), in accordance with federal law (FBI NICS, ATF). So, those sellers are not allowed to sell firearms to anyone convicted of a felony under federal law. Private sales, however, are not subject to background checks under Texas law. Individuals buying from non-licensed sellers (including at gun shows or through personal exchanges) do not need to undergo a background check or register the firearm. "The felon is allowed to purchase the firearm from anyone who will sell [it] to them legally. The problem is that it's still a federal offense for someone to sell a firearm to a person who is prohibited from possessing a firearm under federal law. That's why you don't see Academy or other gun stores selling to felons," said Osso. The law only allows felons who meet the 5-year requirement to possess a firearm in their home, not their vehicle. "If you transport a gun from a store to your residence after purchase, while in the car you are committing felon in possession of a weapon," said Osso. Osso says it's important for anyone convicted of a felony to consult an attorney prior to attempting to purchase a firearm.

Zoo owner arrested on drug charges following raid
An arrest was made in connection to this month's multi-agency raid and investigation of West Coast Game Park Safari, but not for what was expected. On May 27, the roadside zoo's owner Brian Tenney, 52, was arrested by Bandon Police on charges of possession, production, and attempted distribution of methamphetamine. In addition to the relocation of 310 of the zoo's animals due to mistreatment and poor living conditions, the May 15 raid also yielded a drug and weapon bust. According to new information from the Coos County Sherrif's Office, the South Coast Interagency Narcotics Team (SCINT) discovered nearly 80 grams of meth, 44 guns (including one modified to be fully automatic), 8 grams of cocaine, and roughly $1.6 million in cash, cashier's checks, bonds, and certificates. This discovery came in a tandem investigation with members of the Oregon Humane Society, Oregon Department of Agriculture, IRS, and Department of Justice as they served multiple warrants and investigated the park's negligence toward its animals. Veterinarians assessed the animals' health, nutrition, and enclosure conditions after years of citations and reports of mistreatment. Three of the animals assessed were in such poor condition they had to be euthanized, as transportation would have likely been too much for them. The rest of the 310 are now in animal sanctuaries or properly run care facilities. According to the Associated Press, Tenney was released as the District Attorney's office awaited further information. Charges in relation to the conditions at the zoo and the treatment of its animals have yet to be handed down in what is likely to be a long running case from the state against the zoo. This is still an ongoing investigation. The World will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.
