Pistorius Trial Gets Its Own Mark Fuhrman in Murder-Accused, Crime Scene-Contaminating Lead Cop
Max Read · 02/21/13 08:15AM
A star athlete is arrested and charged with murdering a woman he dated. The discovery of blood-covered evidence leads to the impression of an open-and-shut case—until one of the investigating police officers is discovered to have contaminated the crime scene, and accused of committing serious offenses himself. Sound familiar? Hilton Botha, the lead investigator in the case against South African sprinter Oscar Pistorius, admitted this week that he'd contaminated the crime scene, acknowledged that police had no evidence to contradict Pistorius' rendition of events, and incorrectly claimed that he'd found boxes of steroids in Pistorius' room. Even more shockingly, it's been revealed that Botha himself is facing seven attempted murder charges over an insane 2009 episode in which he and two other officers drunkenly fired their weapons at a taxi carrying seven people. (At the time, he was apparently "pursuing a man accused of murdering and dismembering a woman before dumping her body parts down a drain.") All three officers involved were arrested in 2011; the charges were dropped, and then reinstated on February 4. There have been reports that Botha will be dropped from the case, but none have been confirmed. Pistorius' bail hearing continued today, interrupted briefly when an unspecified "threat" required the runner and the presiding magistrate to leave the courtroom.

Guests at L.A. Hotel Spent Weeks Drinking Water Contaminated by a Dead Body
Taylor Berman · 02/20/13 11:45PM
When a maintenance worker at L.A.'s Cecil Hotel opened the hotel's rooftop water tank to investigate low water pressure, he found something unexpected: a dead body. Investigators believe the remains of Elisa Lam had been inside the tank since January 31, when the 21-year-old was last seen. As police work to determine if her death was the result of foul play or "a very, very strange accident," the LA County Department of Public Health is investigating a more urgent matter: the potentially contaminated water, which hotel residents had, for several weeks, used to bathe in and brush their teeth.

Man in Kentucky Arrested for Breaking Into Firehouse, Allegedly Masturbating On Firemen's Gear (UPDATE: Was the Alleged Firehouse Masturbator a Gay Porn Star?)
Taylor Berman · 02/20/13 10:08PM
Last weekend, 27-year-old Nicholas Gonzales got drunk in Louisville, Kentucky. Then, as drunk people tend to do, he made a stupid decision and allegedly broke into a nearby firehouse, smashing one of the building's windows. When firefighters went to investigate the sound of broken glass, they found Gonzales in the midst of an act that they probably weren't expecting: he was reportedly masturbating onto their gear, which he'd removed from their lockers.

It's Time to Break Up the Big Banks
Hamilton Nolan · 02/20/13 06:30PM
Everybody talks about the "Too Big to Fail" problem: financial institutions that are so huge and interconnected that, when they run into a crisis, the public will always bail them out, because the consequences of not doing so would be catastrophic for everyone. Nobody does anything about it. Maybe that's because banks have powerful lobbyists; maybe it's a human psychological flaw that causes us to stop worrying about inevitable future crises as soon as the last crisis seems to have passed.

British Men DEFINITELY Wouldn't Sleep With Kristen Stewart If They Had the Chance
Caity Weaver · 02/20/13 03:40PM
A broken piñata shaped like a dinosaur. An HP LaserJet printer infested with bed bugs. An old, empty potato chip bag they found under the bleachers. All of these things would make for a better lay than Kristen Stewart, a millionaire movie star currently in her peak fertility age, according to a recent survey of British men.
