Generous Off-Duty Massachusetts Police Officer Pays for Driver's Gas when the 53 y/o Man didn't have enough Cash to Cover the Cost at the Pump ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




When 53 y/o Paul Zabawa pulled into a Speedway convenience store / gas station on Monday, August 8th, 2016 with only $1.79 on him he was in desperate need of fuel.




Paul mistakenly pumped $20.00 worth of fuel into his car before he realized that he had been looking at the wrong pump.  




Paul gave all the cash that he had to the attendant but the attendant told Paul that he would have to call the police.  Coincidentally, not-yet-on-duty Northampton Police Officer Michael Szawlowski pulled into the Speedway at that time to buy water before his shift began.  




The store clerk asked Officer Szawlowski if he could take a report then and there but as the officer was off duty he advised that the police station would have to dispatch an on-duty officer, and then he left.  Just a minute later, however, Officer Szawlowski returned, asked the amount owed and wound up paying for the gas that Paul had pumped.  When Paul offered to repay him Officer Szawlowski said: "Don't worry about it at all."  Officer Szawlowski reportedly later said that he wasn't looking for attention, that he felt sympathetic and tried to resolve a simple misunderstanding.  A most grateful Paul Zabawa told local press that "Officers are taking a lot of flak for negativity.  There are good people out there."  Northampton, Massachusetts Police Officer Michael Szawlowski is definitely one of the good guys!

Police inadvertently discover an Inactive Meth Lab inside of a Sewer which was underneath the Parking Lot the Walmart in Amherst, NY ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




Amherst, NY.  Founded in 1818 and voted into the 2011 Top 100 Communities in the US....




But, like virtually everywhere else in today's day and age it's not without it's issues...




What you are looking at in the picture above is a group of police officers, some in hazmat suits, hoisting meth lab materials out of a sewer manhole in the local Walmart parking lot.




According to police routine patrolling officers noticed the distinctive smell emanating from in a sewer under the Amherst Walmart.  By early Monday morning, August 8th, 2016, Special Operations Response Team (SORT) investigators in hazmat suits had cordoned off a section of the car park and were taking evidence from a manhole which lead to an accessible culvert, promoting the find:  An old and inactive makeshift methamphetamine lab, rife with chemicals, spray paint and a substance that is believed to be methamphetamine.




Per Amherst Police Captain Scott Chamberlin: "It happens all over the country, all over the state.  It's out of the ordinary for Amherst.  Has it happened before? Yes."  Police reportedly said there was no risk to the public, and Wal-Mart, as well as much of its parking lot, was allowed to remain open.  The lab was confirmed to be old and inactive, but the fact that it had existed at all baffled some.  Per witness Dawn Clowed:  "I mean, are we breathing in all this meth as we stand here?   Are, you know-- I mean, this is crazy. Just not a safe environment, I mean, you can't feel safe anywhere anymore.  Per Marie Jamieson:  "I seen men suited up, and I didn't know if somebody got hurt or, you know, I didn't know.  And then I was talking to somebody, and they said it was a meth lab. I'm like a meth lab? In Walmart's parking lot? You know, that's crazy!"




Authorities plan to look at the Wal-Mart store's surveillance video to see if it shows people using the culvert but thus far no arrests have been made.

VA Bail Bondsman is Arrested and held without Bond after making Women that he Bonded out of Jail perform Sex Acts on him ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




Meet 60 y/o Vladimir Tarabey.  That's him below...





Vlad owns "A-Fast Bail Bonds" in Richmond, VA.





And, in an interesting (and despicable) twist of fate here's Vlad is now being held in jail without bond.  Here's his mugshot....





Vlad was arrested and charged with two counts of threat, intimidation for money and forcible sodomy after allegedly freeing women from jail on the condition that they performed sexual favors for him..




Investigators say that Vlad had specifically targeted women who couldn't afford their bond and then agreed to get them released them in exchange for sex.  Police allege that Vlad would go through the terms of his "deal" inside of the jail and that most of the alleged sex acts occurred at his home in South Richmond.  Per Henrico Sheriff Mike Wade:  "Inmates that didn't have enough money to get their self out of on bond, he would accept a small amount or sexual favors.  It's something we've heard of and tried to investigate in the past, but until we got these two women who came forward, and agreed to cooperate, it really started the ball rolling."





Memo to the Folks:  In my 25+ years of criminal defense representation I have dealt with many a bonds person and I can tell you, without a doubt, that bail bonds is a traditionally shady business.  That said this guy is over the top.  Taking advantage of desperate women by forcing sexual performance... that is truly despicable.  One can only hope that a little Hammurabi styled justice makes it way to Vlad in the VA State prison system.

Another Synthetic Marijuana Epidemic: 20 people OD on "Darkness" within 2 days in Harrisburg, PA ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




Synthetic marijuana... It comes in a variety of packages, it's readily accessible and it's a big problem.







The latest synthetic marijuana is called "Darkness", and in a two (2) day period twenty (20) people have overdosed in and around Pennsylvania's state capital city of Harrisburg.





Dauphin County District Attorney Ed Marsico is investigating and has put out an alert after the numerous overdoses and emergency room doctors are reporting that users have experienced advanced stages of delirium with one that wound up in intensive care. 





The synthetic pot in question was packaged with the word "'Darkness" and officials suspect that some chemical or other substance was added to the synthetic pot. Most synthetic marijuana contains man-made chemicals that act on the same cell receptors in the brain as THC does in natural marijuana, and researchers have found instances in which chemicals in synthetic marijuana can bind much more strongly to cell receptors than THC does in marijuana that is grown, producing stronger effects, such as an elevated mood or feeling of relaxation.  Unfortunately synthetic marijuana is also known to have psychotic effects on some users, which can include extreme anxiety, confusion, paranoia and even hallucinations.
