The rape charges carry life sentences Jones was also indicted on a malfeasance-in-office charge after prosecutors said he leveraged his authority. The video is alleged to have been filmed at his home Authorities said a person brought the video to the police's attention after they received it through Facebook and then traced the sender back to Jones' vehicle A grand jury has indicted a Louisiana woman who is accused of performing a sex act on her one-year-old son, as well as the sheriff's deputy accused of filming the vile encounter. The baby's mother, Iyehesa Todd, 26, told investigators that deputy Shaderick Jones asked her to perform the act on her son in exchange for not arresting her for an open warrant she had for a traffic ticket, St. Gabriel Police Chief Kevin Ambeau said. A grand jury indicted the two on Monday on charges of rape, aggravated crimes against nature and distributing child pornography. Jones was also indicted on a malfeasance-in-office charge after prosecutors argued he leveraged his authority as an officer. Authorities said someone brought the video to police who found it had been sent from Jones' sheriff's office vehicle. The rape charges alone carry life sentences, prosecutors said. 'I'd rather burn in hell with gasoline drawers on before I do what they're accused of doing,' said prosecutor Tony Clayton, adding that the rape charge alone carries a maximum life sentence. 'These are the kind of facts that make goldfish stop swimming.' Authorities said a person brought the video to police's attention after they received it through Facebook. This led investigators to track the origins of the clip and discovered it had allegedly been sent from Jones' sheriff's office vehicle - and that it had been recorded in his home. Todd was booked into Iberville Parish jail on first-degree rape and incest. Jones was later booked into West Baton Rouge Parish Detention Center on principal to first-degree rape, malfeasance in office and pornography involving juveniles, Ambeau said. Jones has worked as an Iberville Parish deputy since 2015 until he was fired shortly after his arrest, records show.

The drill sergeant making his morning announcements to a group of newcomers in a training camp, stated: "Today, gentlemen, I have some good news and some bad news. First, the good. Private Peters will be setting the pace on our morning run.' With this the platoon was overjoyed, as Private Peters was overweight and terribly slow. But then the drill sergeant finished his statement: "Now for the bad news. Private Peters will be driving my Jeep."

Our pastor asked who had bagged a deer. No one raised a hand. Puzzled, the pastor said, "I don't get it. Last Sunday many of you said you were missing because of hunting season. I had the whole congregation pray for your deer." One hunter groaned, "Well, it worked. They're all safe." ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com Crack a Nut Without a Nut Cracker No nut cracker on hand?

Today's Sermon: HOW MUCH CAN A MAN DRINK? with hymns from a full choir." ___________________________________________________ A boy who was a witness to a crime was on the witness stand in court. He was approached by the defense attorney who asked, "Did anyone tell you what to say in court?" "Yes Sir", answered the boy "I thought so," said the attorney. "Who was it?" "My father, sir." "And what did he tell you?" the attorney asked accusingly. "He said that the lawyers would try to get me all tangled up and confused, but if I stuck to the truth, everything would be all right." ___________________________________________________ A Jewish father was concerned about his son who was about a year away from his Bar Mitzvah but was sorely lacking in his knowledge of the Jewish faith. To remedy this he sent his son to Israel to experience his heritage. A year later the young man returned home. "Father, thank you for sending me to the land of our Fathers, " the son said. "It was wonderful and enlightening, however, I must confess that while in Israel I converted to Christianity." "Oy vey," replied the father, "what have I done?" So in the tradition of the patriarchs he went to his best friend and sought his advice and solace. "It is amazing that you should come to me," stated his friend, "I too sent my son to Israel and he returned a Christian." So in the traditions of the Patriarchs they went to the Rabbi. "It is amazing that you should come to me," stated the Rabbi, "I too sent my son to Israel and he returned a Christian. What is happening to our sons? Brothers, we must take this to God," said the Rabbi. They fell to their knees and began to wail and pour out their hearts to the Almighty. As they prayed the clouds above opened and a mighty voice stated, "Amazing that you should come to Me. I, too, sent My Son to Israel." __________________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
