Huskies Defeat Two Conference Foes to Remain Undefeated

Lawyer arrested for candy
Damon Rossi of Prescott, Ariz., was warned not to give his client a piece of candy in court. His shackled

client had requested the candy, which Rossi supplied even after two detention officers in the court warned him,

"What are you going to do, arrest me?" Rossi allegedly asked the officers.

They answered with a firm "yes," as Rossi was arrested at his home on Thursday, Dec. 18, for the felony charge of providing contraband to an inmate.

"The concern we have is that no contraband should be passed to an inmate," said sheriff's spokesman Dwight D'Evelyn. "That's the rule. We don't know what's in it. If we allow attorneys to feed our inmates it would be a security issue - they get fed three squares a day and we don't feed them in court."

Detention officers later confiscated a box of Pop-Tarts and some E-Z-cheese that Rossi attempted to sneak into the courthouse.

Burger King unveils body spray
Those looking for a new odor for the club scene can turn to an unusual source: Burger King. The fast-food chain, known for the Whopper, has launched a new body spray for me called "Flame" that the company described as having "the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat."

The fragrance is currently for sale at Ricky's NYC, both in stores and online, for $3.99.

the King's competition isn't happy about the cologne, however, and will be striking back: McDonald's has promised a cologne with the scent of their french fries called "Fried," Wendy's will release a spray titled "Junior" based on their classic burgers, and Taco Bell will release a scent called "opposite" that will counteract the smells their foods create.

Chicago sheriff tricks fugitives
The Cook County Sheriff's Department in Chicago arrested more than 60 fugitives after tricking them into visiting a hotel earlier in December.

According to Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, suspects who had warrants for crimes like forgery and aggravated battery were invited to take a retailer's survey for holiday shoppers at the hotel. The fugitives were even mailed a scratch-off card that promised a minimum of $500 to anyone participating in the survey.

The fugitives who showed up for the event were taken into custody.

Dart said it worked much better than his last idea to reel in the fugitives, which supposedly consisted of a "Get out of Jail Free!" card to anyone who could eat an entire large pizza.

Police bust delivery drug dealer
John Patrick Lacour Jr. of Galveston, Texas, thought he had the perfect drug delivery scheme: customers would call and place an order for cocaine or crack, and he would deliver the drugs.

Galveston police caught wind of Lacour's business and placed an order, even asking Lacour to describe himself so they would know who to look for. Lacour was arrested as soon as he arrived to make the delivery.
Sgt. T. Barr of the Galveston Police Department said that he couldn't believe how easy the case was.

"I didn't even remember to hide the number when I called," he laughed. "But I guess that anyone running a drug delivery service for complete strangers isn't always going to check their Caller ID."
