Frenchman, 54, claimed to have fathered 55 African babies in £1m benefit scam

He is said to have ‘romanced’ some of them after meeting them in bars, discos, and even ‘on the street’ of Yaounde, the capital of Cameroon

An unemployed Paris barman was under arrest today after claiming he fathered 55 African babies so as to allow their mothers to move to France on full benefits.
The scam is said to have cost the country more than a million pounds in fraudulent social security payments.
It involved a 54-year-old Frenchman who cannot be named for legal reasons but who has a Sengalese background.

He faces up to 10 years in prison and five figure fines after being charged with making false paternity declarations and aiding and abetting the filing of false administrative documents.
However, he claims that the children are in fact his, and had agreed to DNA tests.
The man’s allegedly extraordinary love life saw him registering the 55 women and their children at his two bedroom flat in a flat near the Gare du Nord Eurostar terminal in Paris.

He is said to have ‘romanced’ some of them after meeting them in bars, discos, and even ‘on the street’ of Yaounde, the capital of Cameroon, which gained independence from France and Britain in the early 1960s.

Others met up with the man in Senegal, the former French colony. Some are said to have paid him for his services, while others are said to have had a genuine personal relationship.
‘Some were claiming up to 7,500 euros (£6,200) a month in various social security benefits,’ added a detective close to the case.

‘They were making a fortune, yet their only link to France was claims that they were involved with a man who had at least 55 children.
‘It cost the man around 150 euros (£124) to register each of his partners and their babies, meaning the potential profits were absolutely enormous.
‘There is no evidence that the man was actually living with any of his families. All of this has cost the state well over a million euros.’

All of the documents registering the women and their children were seized by police during a raid on the suspect’s flat on August 31.
Detectives had been tipped off about the fraud as early as December 2009, but were not granted a search warrant until last month when the man was arrested for an unconnected offence.
‘He is currently undergoing DNA tests to see how many of the 55 babies are genuinely his,’ said the police source.

‘It may be that he is the biological father of some or even all. The man has no job at the moment, but has worked in bars in Paris and in Afria.’
The women, aged between 25- and 50-years old, face deportation if they are found guilty of obtaining administrative documents illegally, or abetting a fraudulent declaration of paternity.
Of 17 women tracked down so far, all are claiming that the man was genuinely the father of their children.

The man, who is thought to be a bachelor who has never been married before, is now set to be released on bail.
Strict conditions will include a night time curfew, visiting a police station every day, and not contacting any of his alleged lovers.

Simon Cowell Grants Young Girl's Final Wish

Simon Cowell fulfilled five-year-old Bethany Fenton's final wish before she lost her battle with a brain tumor. She achieved her dream of singing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' for Cowell when she visited the 'Britain's Got Talent' studios in North London ahead of Saturday's finale on June 5 and even met some of the finalists in the competition. Following her exciting day, the young girl told UK's Daily Mail, "I loved them all, especially Kieran, who asked for my wristband to give us both luck ... Simon let me sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' to him. He's so nice and I love him."

Last year, she was diagnosed with a grade three to four anaplastic astrocytoma brain tumor. A second MRI scan last year revealed the tumor had grown and began seriously affecting her.

Sing Simon's Praises With Us on Facebook

The youngster fought the illness for over a year and had been through radiotherapy and chemotherapy. She passed away Tuesday afternoon, June 8, at the Helen House Hospice in Oxford after a sudden deterioration in her condition at home.

Following her death, Cowell's spokesman Max Clifford said, "He is really upset, he said what a beautiful little girl she was. He is just so sad, and sad for the whole family. She was a very special little girl and Simon was so touched when she sang for him. He was happy that he was able to do a special something on Saturday night to give her a few precious moments but it is so sad and his heart goes out to Bethany's mum and dad and he is thinking of them."

A spokesman for the family said the young girl was doing fine on Sunday after singing for Cowell and "was absolutely over the moon with what happened."

"Her dad said that she had done what she always wanted to do, meet Simon Cowell and sing to him. She had achieved her big ambition and was now ready to depart this earth," the spokesman said.

I have always been a Cowell fan but this was the cream of the crop when he did this. Although he does not have any kids he shows me one thing... Not only does he has a heart, but it is a big one!

Teacher Allows Students to Dress as Klansmen

Reenacting the Klan was this teachers bright ideal of a good thing to do... I wonder what side of the lake did this lady grow up on. Surely it sounds like she had good intent but lets look at history and how many black men have been beaten and killed simply because the Klan wanted to express themselves.

This kind of stupidity makes me wonder why no one did not see this kind of behavior sooner. With her thinking, she would probably get her Klan group together to demonstrate how lynchings happened. Then say see how bad that was...

Maybe if a group of militant Klan savages exposed her to her to the nightmare that many black families experienced days weeks and months ago, then she could see what was so wrong with that...

I have seen her kind before, she is always the first to stand up in a crowd and say that their is no racism in the world and why are blacks always playing the race card!

Hard times affect child-support payments

Tony Gonzalez still calls his 15-year-old daughter "daddy's little girl." They listen to heavy metal music and play cards together. He takes her to meet friends at the movies and proudly calls her an excellent swimmer.

But Gonzalez can't do some things he considers fatherly duties, like giving Sandra an allowance or taking her shopping. And after losing his job of 20 years in August, Gonzalez can't afford to pay Sandra's mother the $221 a month he owes in child support.

"It's heartbreaking," said Gonzalez, 42. "I don't want to be known as a deadbeat dad."

Gonzalez's story is a common one heard in Stanislaus County Superior Court's Department 16. More and more parents, most of them fathers, are crowding the Modesto courtroom to plead with a judge to reduce their child-support payments.

They talk about salary cuts and homes in foreclosure. And unemployment rates -- which spiked at 19.2% countywide in March -- make it nearly impossible for some to keep up with their payments.

Stanislaus County withheld $1.5 million in unemployment benefits to cover the child-support obligations of parents who don't have custody three years ago. Unemployment benefits now make up $4.8 million of the county's child-support take.

In years past, family law attorneys usually heard from parents who wanted more child support taken from their former partners. Now, it's the reverse.

"It's people who have longtime jobs who are losing 10 to 15% of their pay or are on unemployment right now," said E.F. Cash-Dudley, a family law specialist in Modesto. "It's having a profound effect. We see a number of families that are just barely surviving."

Tamara Thomas, assistant director of the county's child support agency, said her office has taken a more empathic approach as she sees parents with a history of consistently paying child support fall on hard times.

"It's been less of the hammer approach," Thomas said. The "hammer" can be as much as 75 days in jail for repeated failure to pay child support.

Jon Gosselin to drop bitter custody

Jon and Kate Gosselin are reportedly trying to work together away from the media glare.

In a shocking twist of events, Jon Gosselin is playing nice with his ex-wife.

According to TMZ.com, the octodad is planning to drop his custody and child support lawsuit against ex Kate Gosselin.

He has reportedly hired a new lawyer since firing his former attorney, Anthony List, the man who called Kate an "absentee mom" and filed legal papers on behalf of Jon seeking full custody of their kids.

"Jon has retained a new lawyer and they're now trying to work out an arrangement that is both private and between themselves," a source told E! Online.

Since there is a noticeably large difference between Jon and Kate's income, the exes are reportedly working together to revise the custody and child support agreement that is currently in action.

Jon, 32, has been paying $20,000 a month in child support to his ex-wife, who reportedly earned $200,000 for her stint on "Dancing with the Stars."

If Jon does not withdraw his petition against Kate, 35, the exes will be ordered to attend a parenting class titled "Children in the Middle," TMZ reports.

The three-hour session is reportedly required for all parents who are involved in custody battles in Berks County, PA.

Though they wouldn't have to attend the class together, both parties would be required to complete the course by June 8.

The Gosselin children were recently cleared by the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry to appear with their mom in a series of new TLC specials titled "Kate Plus 8," according to the Associated Press. Jon is rumored to be trying to get his own show from the network.

15 year old pimps her sister out to be gang raped

Cops: Trenton 7-year-old gang raped after 15-year-old sister pimps her out

TRENTON — City police have charged a 15-year-old girl as an accomplice to the gang rape of her 7-year-old sister.

Police said they believe the older sibling was paid for having sex with multiple partners Sunday night during a party at the troubled Rowan Towers apartment complex, and that she then sold her sister to others at the party.

Police said they believe the younger girl was raped by five to seven individuals, who held the girl against her will and threatened to kill her if she screamed or if she later told anyone about what happened.

Capt. Joe Juniak, commander of the department’s Criminal Investigations Bureau, said he expects there to be many arrests in the case and he expects them imminently.

“The things that took place in there were just horrid,” Juniak said. “Anyone can imagine, especially those who have kids...to allow someone to do that to a 7-year-old is just beyond comprehension.”

Juniak noted that the girls were not full-blooded sisters. He said they were either half-sisters or stepsisters, but whatever the case, they were still raised as sisters.

Juniak said police were initially called by the girls’ family because they believed the 15-year-old had run away from home and that she took the younger girl with her. He said the 15-year-old had exhibited some behavior problems in the past.

Police officers were at the family’s home that night, after 9 p.m., when the 7-year-old returned without her older sister, and she told her mother that she had been raped, Juniak said. Police later located the 15-year-old, who relayed the same details regarding what had happened at the party, and she was arrested and charged.

Juniak said the party took place in a 13th-floor apartment in the complex at 620 West State St., where the 15-year-old met up with a couple of male acquaintances. He said the older sister then had sex with several party-goers for money in a bedroom, while leaving the younger girl unattended in the living room.

At some point, Juniak said, the older sister visited the 7-year-old in the living room and handed her a wad of money, telling her to let the assembled males have sex with her.

“She tells the sister, ‘Let the boys do what they want to do,’” Juniak said.

Juniak said the older girl promoted and watched the acts perpetrated upon her sister.

After the assaults, Juniak said, the 7-year-old got dressed and left the party, while her older sister stayed behind. Two unidentified individuals found the young girl crying outside, and they took her to her home nearby on West State Street, where police had already gathered.

The Rowan Towers complex has been the center of controversy lately, with an increasing number of violent crimes reported there.

Juniak said investigators have identified the apartment used during the party and the person listed as the renter of the unit. But he said that it doesn’t appear the individual was there at the time or that he had any knowledge of what occurred at the party.

Juniak said the tenant is in the process of being evicted from the apartment, which appears to already have been at least partially vacated.

“Individuals within that building have knowledge of what apartments are vacant, and they will gain access to those apartments and utilize them for drinking, partying or whatever else,” Juniak said. “That’s what we believe happened in this instance.”

The 15-year-old sister has been charged with complicity in an aggravated sexual assault, criminal restraint, terroristic threats, endangering the welfare of a child, and promoting prostitution. She was held in the Mercer County Youth Detention Center.

Trenton detectives are working with investigators from the Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office, and the state Division of Youth and Family Services is involved with the case.

Juniak said there appear to have been 12 to 15 people at the party throughout the night, and detectives are searching for anyone who may have been there. He said charges could be brought against everyone, not just those physically involved with the rape of the 7-year-old.

Anyone who was there could be charged for allowing it to happen, and any adults who had sex with the 15-year-old will be prosecuted for rape because of the girl’s age, Juniak said.

“We’re going to identify everyone who was in that apartment,” he said.

Trenton Mayor Doug Palmer, who has a 7-year-old daughter, called The Trentonian last night to express his outrage and to make a plea for the public’s help.

“I am just sick,” Palmer said. “Citizens have got to come forth if they have any information. If you ever wanted to get involved ... if there is nothing that will get your conscience to say ‘I have to step up,’ if it’s not this, then I don’t know what you’re waiting for.

“Police are working triple-overtime and not leaving any stone unturned to get justice for this innocent angel, but we need the people’s help.”

Mother sues for child support - 60 years later

An 81-year-old grandmother is suing the father of her son for child support - even though the child in question was born in 1950.

Apparently there's no statute of limitations on child support in California, in the good old US of A, where Rosemary Douglas lives.

Douglas says her former partner, Urban Joseph Grass, 82, owes her $57,000 in child support and interest, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Douglas got pregnant with her son Gerald in 1950 and says Grass was the father of the child.

After her son's birth she went to court to try to get an order for child support. She says Grass, who was not married to Douglas, didn't want anything to do with her.

Grass's attorney, Pedram Mansouri, says there was a court hearing but no child support order was issued and Grass was then sent to Korea with the Army before any more hearings took place.

The attorney says Grass had no idea there was a subsequent order that he should pay Douglas $50 a month in support.

Apparently Douglas tried to find Grass through private attorneys when her son was about five or six but was unable to track him down and gave up. She later married and had two more children.

Gerald went on to serve for 32 years in the Air Force and recently retired as a lieutenant colonel.

Douglas is now a widow and says the $57,000 which she claims she is owed would be very useful to her - but it's also about the principle of the thing.

However Grass's attorney says he hopes the claim will be dismissed. "We are hoping to make this go away pretty quickly," Mansouri told the Chronicle. "I suspect it's an old lady down on her luck who's looking for some money."

What do you think? Should the father be made to pay up, however long it's been?

Dennis Hopper wife filing for divorce

The divorce petition between terminally ill actor Dennis Hopper and his wife, Victoria Duffy Hopper, is going to court this morning so a judge can decide how much spousal and/or child support Mrs. Hopper will receive while the proceedings continue.

According to her attorney, Mrs. Hopper is running out of money and has nowhere to go with their 7-year-old daughter Galen, so the hearing is necessary.

Dennis Hopper has been trying to divorce his wife since shortly after his cancer diagnosis was confirmed. She is fighting him because she says it’s merely an effort to cut her out of his will, but he says they have a prenup so this shouldn’t be a problem.

81-Year-Old Great-Grandmother Suing For Back Child Support

Los Angeles, CA, United States (AHN) - An 81-year-old woman is suing her son's father for back child support. She claims he's been dodging payments for 60 years and owes $57,000 plus interest.

Rosemary Douglas says she secured a court order for child support after her son with Urban Joseph Grass, Gerald, was born in 1950.

She claims Grass never paid while he claims he never knew anything about the order.

Grass now has a new lawyer, Pedram Mansouri, who says he and his 82-year-old client aren't worried. The lawyer believes he can make the situation go away quickly and suspects Douglas is just down on her luck.

Douglas insists she tried in vain for years to reach Grass and have him to release funds from his military allotment to assist with the child support. She said he refused.

Douglas later married and had two more children. Her son Gerald, who’s now a grandfather himself, recently retired from serving 32 years in the Air Force.

Woman Swapped 10-Year-Old Girl to Man for Cocaine in Michigan

SAGINAW, Mich. (AP) - Police in Michigan say a 45-year-old woman with a cocaine habit let a 67-year-old man have sex with a 10-year-old girl she was caring for in exchange for the drug.

Angela A. Blackwell of Saginaw Township is charged with first-degree criminal sexual conduct and pandering.

She remained in jail Wednesday pending a preliminary hearing set for March 30. Her lawyer did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.

Police are searching for Johnnie L. Griffin on first- and second-degree criminal sexual conduct and firearms charges.

If convicted, the pair could be sentenced to at least 25 years in prison.

Detective Sgt. Joseph Dutoi tells The Saginaw News that Griffin had sex with the girl between September and February, while she was in Blackwell's care.

Women six women sue WVDHHR, others for unpaid child support

Patsy A. Hardy, secretary of the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources Child Support Enforcement; Garrett M. Jacobs, interim commissioner of the WVDHHR Child Support Enforcement; and Heidi Talmage, deputy general counsel for the WVDHHR Child Support Enforcement, are also named defendants in the case.

The six guardians -- Cynthia Kerner, Lori Coon, Robin Danberry, Kathy Cooper, Cecilia Nash and Lisa Roth -- claim the defendants have "engaged n a systematic practice of allowing West Virginia judgments for child support to lapse, causing the children who benefit from those judgments to lose child support from the obligors who owe and/or the opportunity to collect the judgments."

The plaintiffs want to recover damages for the lost legal rights of behalf of their wards and on behalf of all other children similarly situated.

On March 11, 2005, the WVDHHR Bureau for Child Support Enforcement made a motion of behalf of Kerner's children to determine arrears and alleged that Robert Blackhurt was in arrears for approximately $58,000, according to the suit.

Kerner claims pursuant to the final order on petitions for appeal, the court ordered Blackhurt to only pay $111.72, plus $159.76 in internet. She claims the defendants' negligence resulted in her children losing approximately $57,728.

On Jan. 30, 2008, the defendants filed a motion on behalf of Coon's child to determine arrears, and alleged Daniel C. Coon was in arrears in the amount of $2,593.89, but the BCSE terminated the collection, resulting in Lori Coon's child to lose $2,593.89 in child support

The defendants determined Danberry's ex-husband was in arrears of approximately $40,000, but on Dec. 8, 2009, only ordered him to pay $14,793.15, resulting in the loss of $25,206.85 in child support.

On May 22, 1998, Cooper was awarded a judgment against Larry Dean Deskins in the amount of $26,517.01, but by 2009 the defendants failed to renew the judgment and presented Cooper with a release of line saying the judgment was paid in full, which Cooper claims is not true.

Cooper claims the defendants never advised her that the statue of limitations had expired and that she could not collect the judgment.

Nash claims the defendants made a motion alleging the obligor was in arrears of $14,370.12, but on Sept. 19, 2008, he was only required to pay $156.67, resulting in the loss of $14,213.45.

On April 19, 2007, Roth claims the defendants determined the obligor was in arrears in the amount of $75,780.99, but on Oct. 9, 2007, ordered him to only pay $44,969.77, resulting in the loss of $30,811.22.

The plaintiffs claim the did all things proper and necessary to pursue their child support arrearages claims against the obligors through the BCSE, fully cooperated and informed the defendants and all information requested and acted in "good faith and detrimental reliance" that the defendants would timely pursue their children's arrearage claims.

The plaintiffs are seeking that this action be certified as a class action on behalf of all of the proposed class and that they be designated as representatives of the class; that the court declare the breaches, omissions, negligence, legal malpractice and professional negligence of the defendants as unlawful, illegal and in violation of West Virginia law; that the court award the plaintiffs and all class members compensatory and punitive damages; and that the court award plaintiffs and all class members equitable, injunctive, mandamus and declaratory relief to require the defendants to place in the system procedures and processes to prevent such lapses from occurring in the future. The women are being represented by Charles "Rusty" Webb of the Webb Law Firm.

Nas is behind on Child Support he owes $200,000

LOS ANGELES — Nas faces a criminal contempt charge for unpaid child and spousal support in his divorce from fellow singer Kelis.

The rapper pleaded not guilty through his attorney and was ordered back for a March hearing in Los Angeles. Kelis's attorney says Nas is $200,000 behind on child and spousal support. He was ordered to pay more than $51,000 per month to his former wife and infant son in December.

Judge David S. Cunningham III, who is overseeing the divorce proceedings, said Friday it's starting to look like the rapper is trying to evade court orders.

One of Nas's attorneys, Anthony Ukran, told Cunningham the rapper needs more time to prepare his defence and show he's unable to pay the court-ordered support amounts.

Kelis filed for divorce in May.

Flavor Flav, is behind in child support payments of $60,000

Public Enemy group member and reality star, Flavor Flav, is reportedly behind in over $60,000 in back child support to just one of his 4 baby mommas.

According to the NY Post, William ‘Flavor Flav’ Drayton, Jr faces charges of back child support owing Mary Parker, the mother of four of his 7 children, a total of $63,458.

Flavor Flav has been paying Parker $117 a week until she had the child support agreement amended to where he will have to pay $837.72 per child due to his lack of not paying, and that’s not including the four kids’ tuition.

According to a statement, Flavor Flav stated that he was just recently made of aware of the judgment since it is recent and he will be addressing it. The rapper goes on to say that he has made payments on his children’s tuition and has also made direct payment to the mother of his children outside of the court’s order.

Hey Flavor do you know what time it is?

Woman Told to Pay back Child Support

SOCORRO--- The Office of the Attorney General says one Socorro woman owes them hundreds of dollars, but she says they actually owe her money.

Elisa Benitez raises her one-year-old son at her mobile home while going to school full-time.
She and her ex-husband both agreed to hire the Texas Attorney General's office to work out their child support payments.
"We got into this because we thought it was going to make it easier, and instead it just made it way more complicated," she said.

Benitez received a letter in the mail saying the OAG overpaid her more than $500 over the past year, and now they want that money back.

"And they say if I don't pay within 30 days, they're going to start cutting my checks in half," said Benitez.

Benitez says she has bank statements that prove otherwise.

"My bank statements showed that I wasn't receiving the money they said they were sending me. They said they were sending me a 100 dollars, my bank only received 30," said Benitez.

We looked at her documentation, and it all matched up.
In fact, Benitez says her statements show another thing: the OAG actually owes her money.

After she stopped receiving Medicaid services for her son in October, the OAG continued to take the money out from her payments.

She says they've kept $180 that's not theirs.

We called the OAG and talked to them about Benitez' situation.
"Her case was not properly coded...We'll look into why it happened. We will review that documentation and make sure that everything is correct," said spokeswoman Janece Rolfe.

Yet after Elisa said she's received the run-around for weeks, she was ready to just quit the service.

"And I asked them, 'what's the only way I can get rid of the service?' And they told me that I'd have to get back with him(ex-husband), be living with him for six months, and it would go away."

And she says that's no option.

Benitez will find out in the next two weeks if she'll have to pay the child support cash back, hoping to find a little support for herself.

State Dropped charges of statuory rape

JACKSON, Tenn. (AP) -- The state has dropped a statutory rape charge filed in April against a special education teaching assistant.

The case against Terence Love of Jackson was scheduled for trial next week, but The Jackson Sun reported a judge signed an order Tuesday dismissing the charge.

A South Side High School student who was not in a class where Love assisted said she had sex with him when she was 16.

Love's lawyer filed a motion Jan. 26 requesting specific dates and times sex acts were alleged to have occurred.

The order signed by Judge Donald Allen states the girl's trial testimony "would be inconsistent and contradictory to previous statements which she has made."

Defense attorney Daniel Taylor said Wednesday there were "a lot of things that contradicted each other" and Love is glad the case is over.

Eight-grade Boy collapsed and died while conditioning for soccer

FAIRVIEW, Tenn. -- An eighth-grade boy who was doing a conditioning workout for soccer has collapsed and died in a Middle Tennessee school gym.

Williamson County Director of Schools Mike Looney told The Tennessean he couldn't release the boy's name until teachers were alerted and counselors were called to be on hand Thursday morning at Fairview Middle School.

Looney said it wasn't clear whether the youth died Wednesday at the school or later at St. Thomas Hospital in Nashville.

Looney said the boy's death would devastate the area there the school is located, which he described as "an extremely tight community."

The soccer training was being conducted after the regular school day had ended.

Mathew Knowles ordered to pay child support

According to TMZ Mathew Knowles was just ordered to pay child support to his mistress.

Alexandria Wright gave birth to a baby born February fourth after claiming to of had an 18-month relationship. Knowles has never denied being the father of baby Nixon. He actually gave her ten thousand dollars to cover baby stuff and medical costs last month.

Wright’s attorney, Neal Hersh, went to court today asking for support. The judge ordered that if the DNA test taken March first determines that Knowles is the biological father then he will have to pay $8, 200 a month in child support, plus an additional $20, 750 for the previous month of January.

Documents filed in court back in November show that Mathew Knowles’ wife Tina Knowles filled for divorce. The couple released a statement about their split stating, “The decision to end our marriage is an amicable one. We remain friends, parents, and business partners…If anyone is expecting an ugly messy fight, they will be sadly disappointed. We ask for your respect of our privacy as we handle this matter.”

Mathew Knowles, age 58, is the father and manager of R&B singer Beyonce Knowels, and singer/songwriter Solange Knowles. He also founded his own record label (a division of Columbia) that produced the group Destiney’s Child which included his daughter Beyonce, his niece Kelly Rolland, and Michelle Williams.

Parents charged with inciting a Riot at Chucky Cheese

An 18-year-old pregnant woman is out on bond tonight after police say she started a riot inside a Chuck E. Cheese restaurant Saturday night.

It happened at the 3600 block of Hickory Hill.

During an interview Monday, Juaneka Key told us she was there with her family celebrating her 2-year-old son's birthday. However, the night ended at 201 Poplar.

"Everybody's putting it on me, five of us got arrested: me, my mom, my sister, my boyfriend, and my step-dad," said Key.

She says it all started because of a long line at the photo booth.

"My sister and little brother were taking pictures, the girl said, 'Dang how long ya'll gonna be?'" said Key.

An argument started, escalated and turned into a brawl when police say Key's step-dad intervened, punched the girl and gave her a black eye.

"Other people [began] jumping in that didn't have nothing to do with the fight," said Key.

Court papers describe absolute chaos with fists flying between both the victim's family and the suspect's. Police say customers and children began panicking and running from the scene to avoid getting involved.

Managers at Chuck E. Cheese's declined comment. Though they have several surveillance cameras there, a worker tells us none were pointed at the incident.

Nearby shoppers call it ridiculous.

"Kinda a kid environment, for adults to act like that is kinda disturbing to me," said Bertha Waller.

"I feel so embarrassed," said Key.

But the teen says she has no regrets and denies any of this was her fault.

"The fact that I'm pregnant, why am I gonna fight? I'm not trying to lose my child," said Key.

Both Key and her step-dad face charges of Disorderly Conduct and Inciting a Riot. The two other suspects face charges of threatening cops as they tried to break up the fight, as well as Possession of Marijuana.

Nevada Number 1 in Deadbeat Parents

Nevada ranks last in the nation for collecting child support, and now the economy is making it tough for parents, even ones who want to pay, to afford it.

The Clark County District Attorney's Office handles child support enforcement. It already knows there is much room for improvement when it comes to collecting child support, but officials also recognize something is better then nothing.

"They need to realize that a child's needs don't change just because a non-custodial parent isn't responsible or can't hold down a job. I can't tell my son to stop eating or to stop growing," said parent Tammy Wright.

Wright says her ex-husband owes her $12,000 in back child support and has gone up to two years without making a single payment, "We need to have stricter enforcement of deadbeat parents. Someone would come knocking on my door if I didn't feed or clothe my son. I would face consequences, so why doesn't the non-custodial parents?"

Clark County Deputy District Attorney Teresa Lowry agrees, more could and needs to be done to improve Nevada's child support enforcement record. With more than 87,000 cases in Clark County alone, the system is severely overloaded.

"Our case managers juggle anywhere from 600 to 1,000 cases a piece," said Lowry.

But rather than make excuses, Lowry says she'd rather focus on positive solutions -- both punitive and pro-active. Especially given the impact our economic recession is having on those parents who want to comply with their court orders, "They're calling and saying, ‘I've lost my job and I want to get another one but can we modify my order to reflect my circumstances right not so that I don't fall into arrears?'"

And that's one possible solution Lowry says her staff is exploring right now, "If the order is so unrealistic, people might give up and pay nothing at all."

And too many non-custodial parents in Nevada are already paying nothing at all. Current child support enforcement efforts include suspending driver's licenses, garnishing wages and income tax refunds, and jail.

But the DA's Office believes its pro-active programs like drug court and employment assistance are more effective in the long run than locking a parent up.

DNA test on the rise

Mike L. whose DNA proved he was not the biological father of a girl that he had raised from birth. Mike was extremely conflicted because he still loved his daughter deeply. However, upon learning that his former wife was about to marry the alleged biological father of their child, he asked the courts to relinquish his child support payments. Surprisingly, they refused. Mike continues to pay child support to his former wife and his daughter’s biological dad and he is not happy.

DNA tests have proven that 40% of children are born outside of marriage and the number of paternity tests has increased by 60% in the past decade. With a swab from the cheek, life can change dramatically. Most states require an unmarried couple to complete an Acknowledgement of Paternity (AOP) before the baby’s birth certificate is signed. However, there is a growing movement to have mandatory paternity tests done, even for married couples.

Life is indeed, messy. Most state-appointed judges will NOT let non-biological fathers to stop paying child support in the “best interest of the child.” According to the courts, if a man acknowledges paternity and a bond has been established with the child, it would be disruptive for that relationship to disappear. It is now recommended that a presumed father, biological mother or biological father challenge paternity before the child turns 2. This would allow for any discrepancies to be resolved before deep parental bonds have formed. However, there are men who dispute this proposal stating a man may not discover he is not the child’s biological father until years later.

Unfortunately I have to side with the court, once the bond is established then you have to continue being dad. Although I think that the one who plays the fool should suffer the wrath of the Court and they should not only throw the book at her but they should also make her pay back every dime that she got from the father. That is a form of deception that should become a class A misdemenor!

Bristol Palin sues for child support

Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol is seeking child support from the father of her one-year-old son. Documents filed in an Alaskan court show she is seeking $1,750 (£1,090) a month from Levi Johnston, 19. Their son, Tripp, was born in December 2008.

Mrs Palin was the Republican candidate

for vice-president when it was revealed Bristol was pregnant. Mrs Palin said the couple would marry, but they separated shortly afterwards. The child support motion says that Mr Johnston has paid only $4,400 in more than a year. Ms Palin is also seeking child support of $18,350, based on an estimate of Mr Johnston's income last year – thought to be more than $105,000 for media interviews and modelling. Ms Palin is also seeking full custody of Tripp.

Any Court that rules against a 19 year old with no job, to pay almost $2,000 dollars a month is not living in the real world.

Experts say number of deadbeat moms on the rise

Experts say the recession and drug abuse are causing more mothers to miss out on child support payments than ever before in Jefferson County.

And because of that, thousands of kids are not getting the financial help they need leading to the growing problem of deadbeat moms.

When it comes to deadbeat parents, the child support division says their staff of 200 people faces a tough challenge trying to collect millions of dollars.

Many of the deadbeat parents on a public list haven't paid a dime in 10 years.

It could be a while before this payment window at the child support office sees any cash from thousands of deadbeat mothers in Jefferson County.

Mothers we're told who have been delinquent on their child support for years.

But why?

Angela Anton, Assistant Director Child Support Division said, “instead of being deadbeats, they're more dead broke from the state of the economy and the issues with drug and alcohol abuse."

In fact, the Child Support Division's basement is filled with thousands of files.

They say out of roughly 61,000 active cases nearly 10% are deadbeat moms which equals hundreds of thousands of dollars for the division to collect.

Part of the solution is an annual list made available to the public.
Over 4 years, it helped collect roughly $2 million in child support.
It has the top 1000 deadbeat parents and WHAS11 counted at least 20 women.

Including Adrian Ellis at nearly $40,000, Shanna Adams at $22,000 plus and Nicole Birdsong who owes more than $27,000.

We knocked on doors of the last known address for each woman.

None of them were home.

Birdsong listed her residence as The Healing Place on Broadway which was an old location.

So we went to the new building and folks there told us Birdsong is no longer staying with them.

"It's a real good possibility that she knew she had it hanging over her head and was worried about it and so decided to get help," said Pam Scott at the Healing Place.

Family Rights Lawyer Louis Winner tells us another part of the problem.

Many of his male clients don't want to ask for child support from women.

Winner said, "it becomes a little more difficult for the father to say you know what, I need to go after and get child support because it's the right thing to do and it costs money to raise children."

The division says they're more than willing to set up payment plans with any mom or dad who's avoided child support.

If not, they tell us it can be punished by jail time and heavy fines.

Crack is creating Deadbeat mothers

Since the emergence of crack the rate of women becoming deadbeat moms continue to rise to new levels.

Our society is quick to force fathers to pay for child support while simultaneously curtailing their custodial rights and limiting their one-on-one time with their kids; our society loves to rail against "Deadbeat Dads" who refuse to pay support and desert their children. I agree that Deadbeat Dads should be reprimanded and be forced to contribute resources towards their childrens' upbringing--but what about Deadbeat Moms? You never hear about them, but trust me, they exist. I know of dozens of cases of mothers who use child support to remodel their houses and take exotic vacations; mothers who readily accept child support yet find excuse after excuse for not holding a steady job; mothers who abandon their children and then disappear, only to show up again years later demanding full custody; and, yes, mothers who are told by the courts to pay child support who can't seem to ever cough up the cash. Ridiculous. We hardly ever hear about these cases of delinquent mothers in the media, so the image of the "Deadbeat Dad" lingers on whereas birth mothers are continuously heralded and lauded for their apparent purity and virtue.


I think nothing is more heart breaking to see a woman who got hooked on that glass dick and nothing matters to her except when can she get her next high...

I suppose my pet peeve with the Courts is that they have don't really try to handle the problem with these addicts or these damn deadbeats! They give them a slap on the wrist and don't really want to lock them up. Although if the situation was reversed and it was a man hooked on crack and he did not pay child support, they lock him up!

The way society looks at women who are deadbeat, they make excuses! They will give them a pass in one breath and give them chance after chance to try and get right!

Lets look at it from this prospective if you are a woman and you fit into this criteria of:

	Doesn't feed their Children
	Doesn't help them with School work
	Doesn't bathe them
	Doesn't keep their hair clean
	Talks despairingly of their Father
	Doesn't pay Child Support
	Doesn't have a job
	Gets evicted more than often
	Doesn't maintain a clean, living environment
	Doesn't provide beds for the children to sleep on
	Physically, sexually, or mentally abuses the children
	Allows their significant other to physically, sexually, or mentally abuse the children

You are a deadbeat mom, and need help and if she can not help herself, then maybe the Court should step in and help you out. I would rather have a deadbeat mother who is locked up than a dead mother who got killed because she was in the streets!

You've bankrupted my dad': 13-year-old girl to sue Child Support Agency after legal battle left father with crippling debts

A girl of 13 is suing the Child Support Agency, which she claims is trying to destroy her 'hero' father to pay off the mother she no longer wants to see.

Emma Chapelhow - the first child to take legal action against the CSA - says the agency has threatened to jail her father David and seize their home unless £43,000 in backdated payments is settled.

In a letter to the CSA, Emma said: 'I am happy living with my dad, who has spent ten years fighting for me. He is a hero.

Landmark case: Emma Chapelhow claims legal battles have forced her father David, right, to live in a caravan to make ends meet

'I know he spent everything he had fighting for me and I know he has no money left. My mum does not have to pay my dad for me and this is unfair.'

Mr Chapelhow, 42, first began paying child support to his ex-partner Janette Plummer when Emma lived with her in Brighton.

He was handed the huge bill by the CSA in 2006 and told it was backdated payments based on regulations covering 'lifestyle being inconsistent with income'. This rule usually comes into force when one partner claims the other has undeclared income that has not been taken into account when benefit payments are first being calculated.

However, a year later - after a judge ruled Emma did not have to live with Mrs Plummer and she moved in with her father and his wife Gair - Mr Chapelhow was told he would still have to meet the bill.

The schoolgirl, who instructs her own solicitor, is now taking on the agency because Mr Chapelhow, a graphic designer, has been left with crippling debts following a ten-year legal battle in the family court.

Father and daughter claim the CSA have believed Mrs Plummer's 'fantastical' claims they live a luxury lifestyle without checking. They point out that the family is currently living in a caravan while they rent out their farm house in Wellow, Nottinghamshire to make ends meet.

And the teenager claims that, four months ago, she was left in tears after bailiffs acting for the CSA allegedly threatened to take her pet pony Pringle to help meet the payments.

'Outrageous' demands: The CSA threatened to seize Emma's pet pony, Pringle, to help pay £43,000 in backpayments it claims her father owes

In a letter to CSA chief executive Mark Grimshaw, Emma wrote: 'My name is Emma Chapelhow and I am 13 years old. In 2007 I moved to live with my father.

'The judge said that I am old enough and able to instruct my solicitor, which I did. The court moved me to my father. They said my mother could not see me again.' Emma is suing under Article 2 of the Child Support Act 1991, which orders CSA officials to 'have regard to the welfare of any child likely to be affected by their decisions'.

She believes the agency's actions breach the code because it will bankrupt her father and force her into poverty.

Emma said: 'I will take legal action because the CSA have failed to protect me and are still failing to protect me. How can taking my home and financial stability away to pay the mother who the courts are protecting me from not affect my welfare?'

Mr Chapelhow, who is taking joint legal action with his daughter, said: 'They are ignoring her needs as a child and putting both the CSA and the mother she no longer wishes to see before her.

'And to make matters worse, when she has written to them about possible legal action they have ignored her letters and keep writing back to me.

'Enforcement action will have no effect except to put Emma in child poverty.'

The National Association for Child Support Action said it believes Emma is the first child in England to sue the CSA. Mrs Plummet, who lives in Brighton with her new husband-Lee, has not paid any maintenance to Mr Chapelhow since her daughter moved in with him.

She said she supported the decision to award custody to her exhusband but insisted that claims the backdated maintenance would bankrupt him are untrue.

Since it was created in 1993 the CSA has faced controversy. According to the Department for Work and Pensions a quarter of its decisions are later ruled to be 'wrong'.

A spokesman for the CSA said they could not comment on individual cases, but added it was not their policy to carry out enforcement orders which would affect a child's living conditions.
