Monique's Brother Gerald Imes Admits To Molestation | Video

Gerald Imes, the brother of Oscar Winner Mo’Nique, has admitted to molesting the actress when he was 13 and Monique was around 7 years of age. I watched Oprah's interview with Gerald Imes, where Imes apologized to Mo’Nique and talked about his sordid past. Also, it was revealed that this molesting brother served at least a dozen years in prison for molesting someone else in the past.

Gerald Imes said he was sexually abused as a child, however he gave no hint or description in referring to his abusers. He did say there were more than one.

His abuse of his sister, Mo'Nique, lasted about 2 years, according to Imes:

I abused and betrayed the trust of another sibling, my sister, my blood sister. I’m sorry Mo’Nique. I’m sorry. Hopefully, somewhere, somehow, as siblings, we can come back together as brother and sister.

I don't know if Gerald Imes is telling the truth about being molested himself, but he exhibits the classic behavior and body language of a "control freak" and "misogynist." This guy was kind of creepy. And Mo'Nique and Gerald's poor parents just want this whole thing to go away.

According to the parents, Mo'Nique has hurt the whole family with this revelation going global. Mon'Nique's mom said that the last time she spoke with her daughter was 2.5 years ago. Mo'Nique cut off communicating with her family years ago. Now she has returned, in a way, to haunt their every step...

Hate Crime Coviction In New York | Video

A Long Island teenager has been convicted of manslaughter as a hate crime in the stabbing of an Ecuadorean immigrant. The case cast a national spotlight on bias crimes against Hispanics.

Four of the assailant's half-dozen accomplices pleaded guilty to a hate crime, targeting Hispanics in Long Island, NY.

This is a very sad case, but it's good to know that this mayhem and murder will not continue in that area.

One of America's beloved TV Star and Southern Belle, Dixie Carter, passed away yesterday, Saturday, April 10, 2010...
LOS ANGELES — Dixie Carter, the "Designing Women" star who used her Southern charm, quick wit and stately beauty in a host of roles on Broadway and television, died Saturday. She was 70.

Publicist Steve Rohr, who represents Carter and her husband, actor Hal Holbrook, said Carter died Saturday morning. He would not disclose where she died or the cause of death. Carter and Holbrook lived in the Los Angeles area.

"This has been a terrible blow to our family," Holbrook said in a written statement. "We would appreciate everyone understanding that this is a private family tragedy."

A native of Tennessee, Carter was most famous for playing wisecracking Southerner Julia Sugarbaker for seven years on "Designing Women," the CBS sitcom that ran from 1986 to 1993. The series was the peak of a career in which she often played wealthy and self-important but independent Southern women.~AP

The search for the four missing West Virginia miners ended around 1 a.m. EST Saturday, April 10, 2010, after search crews at the Upper Big Branch mine discovered their bodies. This was five days after an explosion claimed the lives of 25 other miners.

Search crews had held out hope for the four missing miners but several attempts to enter the mine were short-lived due to toxic levels of gas. The hope was resting on the miners finding one of the airtight chambers in the mine that would have protected them from the gas but those chambers were found to be empty.

News of the four miners’ deaths was announced by West Virginia Governor Joe Manchin who said “The journey has ended.”

My heart goes out to the families of these hard working and committed miners.
