Mom Brought Malnourished Teen Son Weighing 42 Lbs. Into Clinic, and Now She’s Charged
Chris Harris,People2 hours 32 minutes ago
A 32-year-old woman has been arrested by Wisconsin authorities
following the death of her 16-year-old son, who had disabilities and was
severely malnourished at the time of his death, weighing just 42 lbs.
PEOPLE confirms that Iraida Pizarro-Osorio is being held on $35,000
bail after being charged with child neglect resulting in great bodily
harm.
Medical examiners have yet to release the official cause of Hector
Pizarro’s death, but an autopsy did reveal the teen was severely
malnourished.
There were also bedsores on Hector’s body, according to officials.
The criminal complaint against Pizarro-Osorio alleges she brought her
son to a community health center last week, and immediately, staffers
noted Hector was so thin, his skeleton was visible through his skin.
An ambulance was called, and paramedics tried unsuccessfully to save the boy’s life.
As detailed in the criminal complaint, investigators allege Hector’s
mother claimed he had autism and suffered from epileptic seizures. The
complaint also alleges she said his weight never surpassed 80 lbs.

Pizarro-Osorio, who has two other children, allegedly told police she
brought Hector to see a doctor during a recent trip to Puerto Rico, but
that he was not treated because she doesn’t have insurance.
Later, she allegedly confessed she hadn’t been to Puerto Rico and had
misled investigators, afraid child protective services would remove the
children from her custody.
The complaint doesn’t address the physical conditions of her other children.
A motive for Pizarro-Osorio’s alleged actions is unclear.
Pizarro-Osorio has not entered a plea to the single charge she faces, and it was unclear Tuesday who her Legal Aid attorney is.

Man charged in 31-year-old cold case murder. Police suspect he may have killed others
David Andreatta, Gary Craig and Gregory J. Holman, USA TODAY,USA TODAY1 hour 0 minutes ago
ROCHESTER, N.Y. - In blue jeans and a black town of Perinton hoodie, Larry Timmons, a bespectacled and grandfatherly man with a paunch, cut an unthreatening figure as a town parks watchman.
What few people who encountered Timmons when he worked for Perinton
in 2014, or in his years prior as a real estate salesman around
Rochester, could know was that police in his native Missouri suspected
him in several killings whose investigations had long gone cold.
On Friday, police there charged Timmons, 65, who now resides in that
state, for the 1988 murder of Cynthia Smith, a 31-year-old woman whose
slaying he was questioned in at the time.
Investigators there said police in neighboring Oklahoma, where
Timmons lived for several years, had reopened investigations into at
least two homicides, namely the 1994 murder of Timmons’ first wife,
Deborah Jean Timmons, and the 1998 drowning death of an 11-year-old girl
who was friends with a daughter Timmons had with Deborah Jean.
“We call him an opportunist,” said Sgt. Melissa Phillips, of the
Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office in southwest Missouri. “He does not
target on sex or age. He has little boys in his past. He has little
girls in his past. He has women in his past.”
Locally, law enforcement officials received word earlier this year
about the suspicions of Timmons' involvement in unsolved homicides, and
have been investigating his time here.
The Monroe County Sheriff's Office has no unsolved homicides that
Timmons would be a suspect in, and also does not have unsolved rapes in
which he would be a likely suspect, said Sheriff's Office Investigator
Mike Shannon.
If people have information about Timmons that they think would be of
interest to law enforcement, Shannon asked that they call the Monroe
County Sheriff's Office.
From his early 20s through his early 40s, a period that spanned 1976
to 1994, Lawrence Gene Timmons was linked to no less than five separate
violent crimes in Missouri, despite spending seven of those years in
prison or on parole.
He was charged in the kidnapping and assault of a young boy, the home
invasion robbery of a female college student, and the gunpoint rape of a
woman, and was questioned but never arrested in the homicides of his
first wife and Smith.
Timmons was acquitted of the rape charge at trial, had his robbery
conviction overturned on appeal, and was sentenced to seven years in
prison for kidnapping and assault, although he served just three years
before getting paroled.
Then, as a single father on the cusp of middle age, his run-ins with the law abruptly stopped.
He met a woman named Mechele Lokar, a single mother from Perinton
whose stint in the Army had landed her in Oklahoma, where Timmons had
settled. They had a daughter, married, and eventually relocated to her
hometown in 2006.
Once in western New York, Timmons reinvented himself. He became Larry
Timmons, an everyday real estate salesman and, for a brief time, a
shuttle driver for senior citizens and a parks watchman for the town of
Perinton.
Perinton officials say they plan to review his employment with human resources officials Monday before commenting further.
Timmons lived in two different Perinton locations, said Sheriff's
Office Investigator Shannon.
Shannon said he sent information about
Timmons to police across the state through an internal network but has
not heard from any law enforcement considering him a suspect in an
unsolved crime.
"We sent a flyer out to everybody in the state essentially," Shannon said Saturday.
Marty Lasher, who was a Perinton neighbor of Timmons, remembered going to Timmons' home once for a cookout.
Gilbert Lester, the caretaker and landlord of a Whitney Road home where Timmons lived, said Timmons was quiet and easy-going.
"He paid his rent all right," Lester said. "I had no problem at all."
The murder charge came Friday as Timmons was being held on a $250,000
bond in Lawrence County Jail in Missouri on a forgery charge for
allegedly lying about his criminal past on a job application at local
liquor store.
Prosecutors also alleged he falsified employment applications and
used as many as 17 variations of his name, along with four Social
Security numbers and six dates of birth.
Timmons was arrested Aug. 19 at his Pierce City home.

U.S.
Trial to begin in 9-year-old's killing that shocked Chicago
DON BABWIN,Associated Press3 hours ago
Scroll back up to restore default view.
CHICAGO (AP) It stands as one of Chicago's most horrific crimes, in
large part because of small details that are impossible to shake: The
promise of a juice box that lured the 9-year-old boy off a playground
and into an alley, and the basketball he dropped when he was shot and
killed there.
Jury selection will begin Friday in the murder trial of two of three
men charged with carrying out the November 2015 attack on Tyshawn Lee, a
smart fourth-grader who prosecutors say was killed by gang members to
send a message to his father, a purported member of a rival gang.
"It was one of the most evil things I've ever seen," said the Rev.
Michael Pfleger, a Roman Catholic priest who presided over the boy's
funeral Mass. "I was over there and to see a young boy laying in an
alley next to a garbage can with his basketball a few feet away, this
assassination of a 9-year-old child took violence in Chicago to a new
low."
Dwright Boone-Doty, who will represent himself, and Corey Morgan will
be tried together but before separate juries, each of which will only
consider the evidence as it pertains to one of the defendants.
The third
man accused in the attack, the alleged getaway driver Kevin Edwards,
pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in exchange for a 25-year prison
sentence.

The story that prosecutors will tell at the trial is at once
unimaginable and all too familiar in pockets of Chicago that have been
plagued by gang warfare for years: The shooting was the result of a feud
between the defendants' Bang Bang Gang/Terror Dome faction of the Black
P Stones and the Killa Ward faction of the Black Gangster Disciples,
which the slain boy's father, Pierre Stokes, allegedly belonged to.
According to prosecutors, Boone-Doty and Morgan believed that Stokes'
faction was responsible for an October 2015 shooting that killed
Morgan's 25-year-old brother, Tracey Morgan, and wounded his mother.
That his mother was shot may have been even more significant to Corey
Morgan than the killing of his brother, who was in the same faction, as
it was a breach of gang etiquette that led Corey Morgan to seek revenge
on the innocent family members of his rivals, prosecutors allege.

Department shows Dwright Boone-Doty, 22, who was charged with
first-degree murder in the Nov. 2, 2015, death of 9-year-old Tyshawn
Lee. On Friday, jury selection is scheduled to begin in the trial of
Boone-Doty and an accomplice charged with murder in the November 2015
slaying of Tyshawn Lee, who was killed, prosecutors contend, by members
of a street gang to send a message to his father, a purported member of a
rival gang. (Chicago Police Department via AP, File)
What happened next followed the deadly playbook of so many Chicago
shootings. A few days after Morgan's brother was killed, Boone-Doty
allegedly fired into a car occupied by a rival gang member.
As happens
in so many of these shootings, the rival survived his injuries but the
woman who was sitting beside him, 19-year-old Brianna Jenkins, was
killed. Boone-Doty has pleaded not guilty in that attack.
Prosecutors say the defendants then turned their attention to getting
back at Stokes, first plotting to kill Tyshawn's grandmother before
settling on Tyshawn. And they wanted no leave no doubt about their
message.
"His original plan was to torture this child by kidnapping and
cutting off his fingers and ears," then-State's Attorney Anita Alvarez
said of Boone-Doty shortly after he and Morgan were arrested.

box. The third man accused in the attack, the alleged getaway driver
Kevin Edwards, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in exchange for a

Instead, prosecutors say Edwards drove Boone-Doty and Morgan to Dawes
Park on the city's South Side on the afternoon of Nov. 2, 2015, and
waited with Morgan in the SUV while Boone-Doty approached the boy,
struck up a conversation, dribbled his basketball, offered to buy him a
juice box and then led him to the alley, where he shot him several times
at close range.
When Tyshawn was found, part of the story of his final moments of
life was one small thing that wasn't there: a piece of one of his thumbs
that was shot off when he raised his little hands to block the bullets.
As the investigation unfolded, police said they couldn't believe what
they were finding out, from a rap song that Boone-Doty was allegedly
writing about the shooting to his jokingly referring to Tyshawn as
'Shorty' when he allegedly told friends what had happened: "Shorty
couldn't take it no more."
"This was something we didn't even think humanly possible for even
hardened gang members," said John Escalante, who was the interim police
superintendent when Boone-Doty was charged four months after the attack
and who has since left the department.
On the day Boone-Doty first appeared in court accused of killing
Tyshawn, the boy's father, Stokes, opened fire on gang rivals, wounding
three of them, authorities say. Stokes is in jail awaiting trial on
aggravated battery and other charges in that attack.
"Mr. Stokes, who was involved in a gang lifestyle, ultimately
suffered an unspeakable loss with the calculated execution of his son,"
police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said at the time. "Despite this, he
continued to engage in the same gang activity that started this initial
cycle of violence."
Rubbin Sarpong, 35, was to appear before Judge Joel Schneider in
Camden federal court Wednesday on one count of conspiracy to commit wire
fraud, according to U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito.
The following details from this case were taken from court documents and statements:
From January 2016 to September 2019, Sarpong and several
conspirators — many who reside in Ghana — reportedly set up profiles on
various dating websites using fake or stolen identities posing as United
States military personnel stationed overseas.
"They contacted victims through the dating websites and then
pretended to strike up a romantic relationship with them, wooing them
with words of love," according to the criminal complaint.
After starting a relationship with the victims, Sarpong and his
conspirators would ask them for money, authorities claim, often for the
claimed purpose of paying to ship nonexistent gold bars to the United
States.
The most common story used by Sarpong and his conspirators was that
they were military personnel stationed in Syria who were awarded gold
bars. The conspirators told many of the victims their money would be
reimbursed once the gold bars arrived in the United States.
In one case, a conspirator claimed he was a U.S. solider stationed in
Syria who had recovered gold bars worth $12 million and needed help
bringing them over. He sent her a fictitious airway bill showing that
two trunks with "family treasure" would be sent to her, along with a
fake United Nations Identity Card that identified him as an Israeli
citizen and UN delivery agent.
She wired him more than $93,000 and they planned to meet at
the Baltimore/Washington International on June 13, 2018. The next day
she died by suicide.
Authorities say Sarpong and his conspirators used various email
accounts and Voice Over Internet protocol phone numbers to communicate
with the victims and instruct them where to wire money.
Victims, on occasion, also sent money via personal and cashier's checks.
Authorities say the funds were then withdrawn in cash, wired to other domestic bank accounts and wired to conspirators in Ghana.
Sarpong, who was found posting photographs of himself with large
amounts of cash, high-end cars and expensive jewelry, personally
received $823,386 in the scheme, authorities said.
According to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday, Sarpong was active on social media and "bragged about his wealth."
Authorities say on March 2, 2017, Sarpong posted a photograph of
himself sitting in a car with a large stack of money up to his ear like a
cellphone with a caption that read "WakeUp With 100k... One Time.
Making A phone Call To Let My Bank Know Am Coming."
In a May 29, 2017 post, Sarpong posted a photograph of himself in
front of a white Mercedes with the comment "BloodyMoney," according to
the complaint.
On December 12, 2018, Sarpong posted a photograph of himself with an
unidentified male with the comment "BigBusiness Done...Now We Waiting
For The Checks To Clear," authorities said.
Sarpong faces up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine, according to Carpenito.
