When the Mega Millions jackpot was $540 million, we asked our Facebook friends what “unusual” things they would do if they hit the big prize. Many said they would assist charities and relatives, but several had some novel ideas both serious and otherwise.
Feel free to add your ideas in the comments section below the story.
Johnny: I’d buy all the local news stations and prevent them from ever having another minute by excruciating minute of a “snowpocalypse” event.
Joyce: I’d run naked through downtown.
Elizabeth: build a safehouse/emergency shelter for girls picked up for prostitution (girls who are being trafficked) to come to in the middle of the night to stay until they can get into a long term rehabilitation facility. And probably get a dog

Pearline Richardson inadvertently summed it up. When the 16-year-old girl she allegedly was pimping out of an Independence hotel cried and pleaded with Richardson to let her go, Richardson told her, “You need to straighten your face. . . . You don’t matter. Money matters,” according to an affidavit filed by federal prosecutors in the child sex-trafficking case pending against Richardson in U.S. District Court in Cleveland.
…
The majority of the defendants operated out of Toledo — where a confluence of interstate highways create a strategic location for modern-day slave traders. But Cleveland had its share: Timothy Davis is serving 54 months for prostituting a juvenile at a hotel in North Olmsted. Chardee Barfield and Ernest McClain were indicted in February for allegedly pimping a minor at hotels in Mentor and Wickliffe. McClain is in jail, awaiting trial. Barfield is on the run. And then there is Sonora Armstrong, 30, who pleaded guilty on Monday for trafficking a 15-year-old girl from Cleveland to Richmond, Va.

At first, I was shocked and horrified. What came back from a Flickr result page were some of the most over-the-top political billboard paintings one could imagine. They are lectures to a vehicular audience at the busy intersection of State Road and Pearl Road; offering of “affirmative action pricing” for sign making, Obama being lectured by a spanking, a swastika on a green blackboard while a teacher how Hitler was the first green president. They elicit a shocking response, and that’s clearly their intent.
Digging through my contacts within the ranks of rabble-rousing libertarians, I was able to ascertain the chain of events in the ownership of the sign. A Columbus Ohio PAC had done the payment processing, but a local Ron Paul meetup member had actually suggested the location. I spoke with him and he seemed to not know as much about the company’s history as as provocative placement pimp.

View full sizeMarvin Fong, The Plain DealerJimmy Dimora and his defense attorneys William and Andrea Whitaker head toward the federal courthouse in Akron in January during Dimora’s corruption trial.
Akron, Ohio — A lawyer for Jimmy Dimora repeatedly references the salacious nature of photographs in written objections to the public release of exhibits used to convict Dimora of racketeering.
Defense attorney William Whitaker argues that the exhibits — including photos of Dimora at a Las Vegas pool frequented by strippers — would prejudice prospective jurors against his client in a second corruption trial scheduled for October.
Whitaker filed the motion Friday, after prosecutors submitted a list of exhibits they believe should be made public, either in their entirety or with portions redacted, based on an earlier ruling by U.S. District Judge Sara Lioi.

Can the resurrected slaves breathe life back into the Fletcher farm? Having brought the slaves back from graves that his father sent them, can Billy be the kind master his father wasn’t? Is keeping the farm worth denying the men the freedom they earned with death?
Billy’s conscience holds the key to those mysteries, but not the biggest one: what does Abraham really want from the former slave owner’s son?
Schwamberger also recently published “Two Men, a Rat, and a Lady.” Steve and Marc are two men with nothing much going on in their lives. They work little, live in a rat-infested apartment, sponge off the government and enjoy the simple things in life: booze, cigarettes and women.

Today, Mrs. Staniero said, it is estimated that 27 million people are enslaved around the world, about double the population of Ohio. It ranks as the second largest criminal industry and the fastest growing one, she said, with annual receipts estimated at about $30 billion.
It is an industry that preys on vulnerable people, she said, seeking those who are poor, have low self-esteem or come from troubled homes. Around the world, enslaved people are put to work as child soldiers, in pay-for-sex operations, as domestic servants, farm workers, in mines and hotels, she said.
The sex trade is one of the more prolific of forced labors, and a short film provided some insight to that world. It chronicled two girls from Toledo, ages 14 and 15, who were abducted on their way to get a treat from a fast-food restaurant. They were forced, under the threat of violence, to work at truck stops as prostitutes.
