Sponsored Links United States Attorney NewsIrish nanny facing murder in death of 1-year-old girl denied bailAisling Brady McCarthy, a nanny from Ireland, will have to await her murder trial in jail after she was denied bail. McCarthy is accused of the death of Remah Sabir, a one-year-old girl who had suffered a head trauma while under her care. She was brought in to the hospital and died two days later. However, McCarthy may get a reprieve after the judge got frustrated with the prosecutors' delay in handing over medical proof which could prove critical for her defense. David Meier, a criminal attorney in Boston defending for McCarthy, said that the evidence they were asking for is necessary to the case. McCarthy's defense said they are not ready to go to trial in April because of the delay. NSA employee accused in adopted son's deathBrian Patrick O'Callaghan is facing murder charges after it has been alleged that he had beaten his adopted son which resulted to the 3-year-old's death. O'Callaghan is a former marine and a war veteran who now works for the NSA. The suspicion against O'Callaghan started when police were called to the hospital where the boy was confined. The boy was suffering from brain hemorrhage and fractures in the skull, injuries consistent with beating. O'Callaghan had told police investigators that his wife had gone out of town thus he had been caring for the boy. While under his care, O'Callaghan said the child had hit his shoulder in the shower after falling backwards. The next day, when he went to check on the boy who was napping, he said he noticed mucus coming out of the boy's nose and when he picked him up, the boy started vomiting so he brought him to the hospital. Steven McCool, a defense lawyer in Washington representing O'Callaghan, is insisting on his client's innocence. He said the allegations have no basis and that O'Callaghan is disputing that the child suffered several injuries in the head. Plea deal for drunk driver who crashed boat and killed a soon-to-be wed manA plea deal had Richard Aquilone pleading to lesser charges and getting just a probation for the death of Jijo Puthuvamkunnath. Puthuvamkunnath was to be married in a few weeks but he never got to tie the knot as he got killed when a drunk Aquilone rammed his boat with his yacht. The impact was so great that Puthuvamkunnath's boat was split in two. Aside from the probation, Aquilone will also be made to serve the community for 250 hours. Marc Agnifilo, New York criminal attorney defending for Aquilone, said his client has expressed regret for the loss that he has caused the Puthuvamkunnaths. Man cleared of rape that happened in 1993Stephen Cothran was acquitted of rape and kidnapping charges in connection to an incident that happened in 1993.
Cothran, 56, became a suspect when his DNA linked him to evidence gathered during the incident. However, a negative test had the jury dismissing the charges against Cothran. Reuben Sheperd, a criminal attorney in Cleveland defending for Cothran, said that the victim had agreed to have sex with his client.
