[Note: Unless otherwise indicated, the commentary and quotes in this article are from the author's interview with those mentioned.].

A man out on probation for drug charges less than a year ago and a woman from Douglas were recently arrested following a search at a local apartment. On August 7, 2024, at around 1:00 PM, Detectives from the Coffee County Sheriff's Office Drug Unit were conducting a proactive narcotics patrol in Douglas. During their patrol, a detective spotted 30-year-old Christopher Lamar Hawkins, who had outstanding warrants for fleeing police and methamphetamine possession, driving a white 2021 Kia Sorento. Hawkins was stopped in front of apartment 203/204 on N Wheeler Ave, where two detectives approached him. Breanna Henderson, 33, then came out of apartment 203 to "investigate what was going on with Hawkins" and appeared to whisper with Hawkins during his arrest. The report states that Henderson, who temporarily lived with Hawkins, began whispering with him "presumably about nefarious activities due to Hawkins's previous history with drug distribution and evading law enforcement."

A Missouri woman will spend life in prison for killing a pregnant stranger as part of a demented ploy to steal her unborn baby, officials announced this week.

Amber Waterman, 44, pleaded guilty Tuesday to luring her victim, 33-year-old Ashley Bush, to her death in October 2022 with a fake promise of a job opportunity — only to rip the fetus from her body.

“This horrific crime resulted in the tragic deaths of two innocent victims,” US Attorney Teresa Moore said in a statement. 



“Today’s guilty plea holds this defendant accountable for her actions and ensures that justice will be served.”

In April, the National Library of France removed four 19th century books, all published in Great Britain, from its shelves because the covers were likely laced with arsenic. The books have been placed in quarantine for further analysis to determine exactly how much arsenic is present. It's part of an ongoing global effort to test cloth-bound books from the 19th and early 20th centuries because of the common practice of using toxic dyes during that period.
