Jennifer Jackson - Playboy Playmate - Found Dead Of Apparent Heroin Overdose

Jennifer Jackson Playboy Profile

Westlake, OH (The Weekly Vice) – Jennifer Lyn Jackson, a 40-year-old former Playboy Playmate was found dead in her home after an apparent heroin overdose.

According to Westlake police, Jackson was found dead by her husband in their Westlake trailer home.

Investigators say Jackson appears to have died of a heroin overdose.

In the April 1989 Playboy article she was featured in, Jackson stated that her ambition was to “follow the golden road to success”.

Apparently, she went the wrong way because she had several run-ins with the law before her death, including charges for drunk-driving, disorderly conduct stemming from an intoxicated domestic disturbance in her home, and a charge of receiving stolen property that was later dropped when the victim failed to appear in court.

At one point, Jackson was arrested four times in a period of five years, and was ordered to undergo drug and alcohol treatment.

Police are now investigating who supplied Jackson with the drugs and believe it was someone close to the family

Jackson also had a history of drug abuse. Toxicology tests will be performed to determined whether or not Jackson died of a drug overdose. There are no obvious signs of foul play.

Perhaps she could have been helped by a good heroin treatment center.

13-Year-Old Girl Sentenced To 90 Lashes After Bringing Cell Phone To School

Jubail, Saudi Arabia (The Weekly Vice) - An unnamed 13-year-old girl in Saudi Arabia has been sentenced to 90 lashes after she was caught in a heinous crime. Saudi officials say the teen was caught bringing a camera phone to school.

Saudi officials say the teen assaulted her teacher after she was caught with the camera, which is routinely banned from all girls' schools.

Officials say the flogging will proceed in public while her classmates look on. The flogging will then be followed with two months detention.

Human rights groups criticized the decision, pointing out the punishment is harsher than is regularly handed out to robbers and looters.

Under Saudi Arabia's Sharia Law, flogging is deemed a mandatory punishment for a number of moral transgressions such as adultery, dating or even being alone with a member of the opposite who is not related. Flogging may also be used, however, for a variety of other violations of Sharia law at the Judge's discretion.

Fernando Cooper’s Has A Nipple Fetish - Charged With Biting Cop’s Nipple Off

Chicago, IL (The Weekly Vice) - Fernando Cooper, a 31-year-old Chicago man was jailed after he allegedly bit an off-duty cop's nipple off during a fight outside of a nightclub.

According to Chicago police, around 9:30 p.m. Sunday Cooper was allegedly harassing the patrons at Gibson’s Bar and Steakhouse in the Viagra Triangle (seriously) by grabbing at their feet, attempting to shine their shoes for change.

Cooper and the off-duty officer, who was moonlighting as a security guard for the club that night, got into an argument outside of the bar when the officer tried to stop him. Officers in the area witnessed the struggle between Cooper and the man, who was identifying himself as a police officer.

Despite the victim’s stated deputy status, Cooper continued to ignore his verbal commands and then punched the cop several times in the face and severely bit the officer’s nipple, finally stopping when responding officers deployed a chemical spray at him, according to investigators.

Cooper also allegedly grabbed for the officer’s holster several times during the struggle.

The officer was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital where he had to have his nipple removed because of the damage caused by Cooper’s bite.

Cooper suffered cuts and bruising to his face and was taken to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center for treatment, then released and taken to jail.

Cooper was booked into jail and charged with attempting to disarm a peace officer, aggravated battery to a peace officer, and three counts of resisting arrest. He was also cited for panhandling in a prohibited manner. He is being held in lieu of $500,000 bond.

Records show Cooper has been arrested 20 times in the last year and more then 90 times since 1995.
