The mum of a 19-year-old whose body was found two weeks after he went missing has rejected an apology from the Metropolitan Police . Evidence Joel said she was ‘dismissed’ by officers ‘in the darkest period of my life’ after reporting the disappearance of Richard Okorogheye. Richard, who had sickle cell anaemia and had been shielding as a vulnerable adult, went missing from his home in West London on March 22, 2021. The loving son was last seen on CCTV walking towards Epping Forest in Essex. His body was found at the beauty spot, located 20 miles from his family home in Ladbroke Grove, on April 5.

She spoke of her ‘deep regret’ after an Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) investigation into his disappearance concluded. The watchdog found that, overall, officers provided an … [Read more...] about Mum of missing teenager rejects Met Police apology and demands accountability

What I Wish I’d Known About Sexual Assault in the Military
“D uck and cover!” a mechanized voice screamed. The ground shook and the window rattled. I rolled from my bed to the floor of my trailer and felt for the armor I’d forgotten in my office. I lay there and sweated and swore. The voice from the loudspeaker urged me to get away from the windows. I was inside a tin can. I crawled to the door. My hand was on the knob when I realized I was naked. The next impact knocked the air conditioner to the floor. I grabbed a light-blue cotton robe and bolted. To hear more feature stories, see our full list or get the Audm iPhone app. I raced along a row of sandbags, one hand holding the robe closed. The duck-and-cover bunkers were 100 feet away. Another series of explosions, and I hit the rocks. I was lying there, panting, when I saw a bright-yellow bunker tucked behind a row of sandbags and palm trees. I was up, running, full out. My robe fell open and flew out behind me. Another hit. I was 20 feet away. Ten. Five. I crashed into the … [Read more...] about What I Wish I’d Known About Sexual Assault in the Military
When Donald Meets Hillary: Who Will Win the Debates?
The most famous story about modern presidential campaigning now has a quaint old-world tone. It’s about the showdown between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy in the first debate of their 1960 campaign, which was also the very first nationally televised general-election debate in the United States. The story is that Kennedy looked great, which is true, and Nixon looked terrible, which is also true—and that this visual difference had an unexpected electoral effect. As Theodore H. White described it in his hugely influential book The Making of the President 1960 , which has set the model for campaign coverage ever since, “sample surveys” after the debate found that people who had only heard Kennedy and Nixon talking, over the radio, thought that the debate had been a tie. But those who saw the two men on television were much more likely to think that Kennedy—handsome, tanned, non-sweaty, poised—had won. Historians who have followed up on this story haven’t found data to back … [Read more...] about When Donald Meets Hillary: Who Will Win the Debates?

MAMA June Shannon's daughter Lauryn 'Pumpkin' Efird and her husband Josh have revealed the first photos of their newborn twins.

Kim Kardashian ‘calling in lawyers’ to block 2002 sex tape partner Ray J from ‘leaking raunchy recordings’
Kim Kardashian is reportedly 'calling in lawyers' to help block her sex tape partner Willie 'Ray J' Norwood from 'leaking raunchy recordings.' The 41-year-old reality star's ecstasy-fueled sexploits from her 22nd birthday in Cabo San Lucas in 2002 with her 41-year-old ex were famously released by Vivid Entertainment in a 41-minute DVD titled Kim Kardashian, Superstar in 2007. 'Kim knows that Ray J made other tapes of them together. Some of the footage will be incredibly intimate,' a source told The Sun on Sunday. Another sex tape scandal? The Kardashians star Kim Kardashian is reportedly 'calling in lawyers' to help block her sex tape partner Willie 'Ray J' Norwood (L, pictured in 2006) from 'leaking raunchy recordings' 'She has told lawyers, "Over my dead body is this happening again."'

Mama June’s daughter Honey Boo Boo, 16, nearly DROPS her sister Pumpkin’s newborn daughter in new photos
MAMA June's daughter Alana 'Honey Boo Boo' Thompson has nearly suffered a blunder after almost dropping her sister Lauryn 'Pumpkin' Efird's newborn daughter in new photos. In photos exclusively revealed by The Sun, Alana was seen helping to hold Pumpkin , 22, and Josh Efird's new twin babies, but the 16-year-old reality star seemed to almost lose her grip on the new daughter. The new family photos were taken in Georgia , and showed the new parents and their four children; Ella, four; Bentley, 11 months; and the twin babies Sylus Ray Efird and his twin sister Stella Renae Efird, born May 19. The children's aunt, Alana, who Pumpkin was awarded custody of in April as The Sun first exclusively revealed, was sporting her now- signature long eyelashes and nails for the snaps.

The World Is a Thriving Slaughterhouse
H ere, lying in a stained carton, are notes on a refugee camp in Tanzania, where surviving Tutsis and their Hutu enemies lived side by side in blue tarp tents. It is 1994. The notes record that there are people everywhere, milling and moving in short parades on the main path in the camp, hastily constructed by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. Women wear colorful cloths, khangas , and carry yellow plastic containers of water on their heads. Children and old men push up against one another, as if at a bargain sale. They hold portable radios to their ears. A man in a brown rain hat drags a reluctant goat by a rope. White smoke mixes with the smells of fresh earth and excrement. At an outdoor butcher shop, a cow’s bloodied horn lies beside the animal’s astonished head. I greet a group of young Hutus in French. “Did you participate in the killings?,” I ask. “We did nothing,” one says. “Did you see others do the killing?” He says, “We saw nothing.” I ask, “How many … [Read more...] about The World Is a Thriving Slaughterhouse
The Smartphone Psychiatrist
S ometime around 2010, about two-thirds of the way through his 13 years at the helm of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)—the world’s largest mental-health research institution—Tom Insel started speaking with unusual frankness about how both psychiatry and his own institute were failing to help the mentally ill. Insel, runner-trim, quietly alert, and constitutionally diplomatic, did not rant about this. It’s not in him. You won’t hear him trash-talk colleagues or critics. Listen to the audio version of this article: Feature stories, read aloud: download the Audm app for your iPhone. Yet within the bounds of his unbroken civility, Insel began voicing something between a regret and an indictment. In writings and public talks, he lamented the pharmaceutical industry’s failure to develop effective new drugs for depression, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia; academic psychiatry’s overly cozy relationship with Big Pharma; and the paucity of treatments produced by the … [Read more...] about The Smartphone Psychiatrist
