A Frosty reception
A Wendy’s restaurant manager turned a would-be thief in when she realized it was her own son who was robbing the place. Jason Zacchi, 27, is accused of going to the restaurant in Dearborn Heights, Mich., with a sawed off shotgun. Zacchi, who wore a bandanna over much of his face, threatened workers and demanded money. But the manager recognized the face under the bandanna as her son and shouted, ‘What the hell are you doing?'” police said. Zacchi fled and his mom helped police track him down.
Murder rap
Putting up a YouTube video about your involvement with gangs and violence isn’t the best defense to murder charges. A judge in Portsmouth, Va., certainly wasn’t impressed. Circuit Judge Kenneth R. Melvin sentenced Jah-Youth Sutton to 25 years in prison shortly after watching a video in which Sutton bragged about violent acts and jeeringly mentioned mothers crying in a morgue. The video was posted on YouTube while Sutton was released on bail on charges that he beat another man with a gun so badly that his skull caved in. Sutton denied killing the man and said the video was “like art.”
