Woman has scalp ripped off by ex and his dog

A Kentucky woman is out of the hospital and speaking out for domestic violence victims after cops say her ex-boyfriend and his dog ripped her scalp off in an act of unspeakable cruelty.
It all started when Marilyn Stanley's ex-boyfriend Zachary Gross snapped earlier this month because of a Facebook post.
"I've been physically changed for the rest of my life," Stanley told the station of the Sept. 14 attack.
Boone County cops say that Gross assaulted Stanley for an hour in his Walton home, and then enticed his dog to attack her when she refused to drop a knife — which she was using to defend herself, Fox 19 reported.
After the dog ripped off part of Stanley's ear and scalp, Gross made her look in the mirror and made fun of her appearance, according to the station.
Gross drove Stanley to her mother's home — with some of her scalp in a plastic bag, Fox 19 reported.

Eighty percent of her scalp had been detached from her head, according to documents obtained by Fox 19.
"I couldn't believe I remained conscious the whole time," she told the station.
Stanley has undergone multiple surgeries. A GoFundMe page set up to help with her medical costs has raised nearly $12,000 as of Friday afternoon.
Gross has been charged with assault and harboring a vicious animal, according to the station. Stanley is hoping to pass along to others in abusive relationships that "there is a way out."
"You need to get out before it gets too far," she said.

An artist was murdered in Oakland as he worked on a mural painting a message of peace.
Antonio Ramos, 27, was shot dead in broad daylight as he contributed to the colorful charity project.
Devastated friends and relatives said they were shocked that Ramos had been gunned down while he was doing something positive for the community.
“He was a good kid, and this was his love. He was always willing to help out,” his aunt Margaret Holappa said.

“He was amazing. He was an artist, he works on music, he just does all kinds of stuff," said Krystal Carpenter, Ramos' godmother. “He's never been in any trouble with anybody.”
In the mural, a young boy wearing a half-painted orange hat and purple hoodie looks toward a neighborhood with a row of colorful houses, reported SFGate.

Dave Young Kim, a professional artist who had known Ramos for three years, called him a “very talented artist” who was working on the project unpaid.
“That’s just the kind of kid he was,” Kim said. “He was super willing to help. He was very reliable and just had the sort of naivete that was so fun to be around.”

Ramos was among 60 artists working on the Oakland Super Heroes Mural Project, a collaboration with West Oakland middle-school students, said officials at Attitudinal Healing Connection, a community group organizing the project.
Ramos was working on the 4,000-square-foot mural under the Interstate 580 overpass when he was shot around 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, police said.

Officers found Ramos suffering from multiple gunshot wounds and he was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead. No arrests have been made.

Man disemboweled girlfriend after she calls out ex during sex

A south Florida man charged with murdering his girlfriend admitted to disemboweling her with his bare hands after she twice cried out her ex-husband's name during sex, police said.
Self-admitted "monster" Fidel Lopez, 24, said he flew into a drunken rage after she cried out the other man's name during rough sex inside of their Sunrise apartment's closet early Sunday morning, according to a police report.
In extremely disturbing details, police say Lopez admitted to shattering a sliding glass door, punching holes into a wall and ripping a closet door off its hinges.

He then returned to 31-year-old Maria Nemeth, who was lying unconscious on the floor, and proceeded to sexually mutilate her -- first with various objects, then by inserting his arm into her, up to his elbow.
Once inside he said he proceeded to rip out part of her intestines.

 

Neighbors said they heard a man yelling and loud noises for about two hours coming from the apartment, which the couple had shared for about a week.
Before calling 911 just after 3:30 a.m., Lopez said he carried her body to the bathroom and splashed water on her face in an attempt to revive her. He then washed his hands, had a cigarette break outside and called cops to say his lover was not breathing.
When police arrived at the home, they found him crying for help next to her naked body. Blood and bodily tissue covered the floor and walls. A bottle of tequila and sliced limes were seen in the kitchen.
Lopez initially blamed her death on rough sex. During a court appearance Monday he told a judge, through an interpreter, that he'd been drunk.
He was charged with first-degree murder and ordered held without bond.
Nemeth's neighbors were stunned and horrified by the news. They said she worked at the apartment complex as a leasing agent. That's where she met Lopez."Very gentle, very private. Soft-spoken young lady. We all loved her. Very pleasant young lady," Dan Carter

Siblings claim cousin killed their dad after starting incest relationship

Two Washington state siblings say their cousin killed their father on Christmas Day after they began an incestuous relationship and ran away together to Belize.
Jennifer Ralston and her brother Caleb McNamara filed a civil lawsuit last week against their cousin Tracy Shannon Nessl, who moved back to central Washington after the death of their father, Timothy McNamara.
The two claim their cousin put their dad's life insurance policy and his property in her name before she shot him in the back of the head. The U.S. does not have the authority to arrest Nessl since the alleged murder happened in Belize.
"It's insane," Caleb McNamara said. "This is absolutely insane."
The brother and sister said the 44-year-old Nessl started seeing her uncle, who was 22 years older than her, in 2012, just after he divorced his wife. Nessl's father was Timothy McNamara's brother.

 

 

Timothy McNamara's kids and his hometown of Soap Lake struggled to understand the new relationship.
"We had been raised in a very Christian, conservative home, and so it was hard for us to digest," Ralston said. "It was hard for us to understand."
The uncle-niece couple eventually took a romantic vacation to Belize — and never came back. While on their getaway, they purchased a 60-acre farm and moved in, the siblings said.
"I think my dad went to Belize because he really couldn't sell it in a small town, the relationship they were in." Caleb McNamara said.

Meanwhile, Nessl quietly put her lover's Washington state properties in her name and listed herself on his life insurance policy.
On Christmas Day 2014, the cousin shot Timothy McNamara in the back of the head with a shotgun, the siblings said.
She called Caleb McNamara a day later to tell him his dad died after he accidentally shot himself. Belize police later ruled his death a suicide.
"You don't shoot yourself in the back of the head," Caleb McNamara said. "It's borderline impossible."

The siblings pursued their dad's suspicious death and eventually got Interpol to issue a warrant for Nessl's arrest in Belize — but by then, their cousin was already back in Washington living on the family farm, one of the properties she put her name on before the shooting, they claimed.
U.S. officials do not have the power to arrest Nessl, and extradition back to Belize is a complicated process, the siblings said. That's why they filed the civil lawsuit.
Nessl has since cut communication with the siblings and won't allow them into the family farm, they said.
Instead, she now lives alone on the property Timothy McNamara dedicated his life to.
"The number one thing is you want justice for what happened to your dad, there's no doubt about it," said Jennifer Ralston. "But when you see everything he worked for his entire life and you were such a part of it and you're not even allowed to be there or go near it, you're like, this is so wrong."
