  • Lawyer accidentally turns on kitten filter during virtual case hearing

    Lawyer accidentally turns on kitten filter during virtual case hearing

    A Texas court hearing over Zoom went viral after a lawyer accidentally activated a cat filter and then couldn’t turn off.

    In the Zoom meeting, one of the lawyers, Rod Ponton, became a fluffy white kitten in a moment. Mr Ponton’s head appeared as a cat alongside the two men in suits.

    In the video, Judge Roy Ferguson asked the lawyer if he wanted to turn of the filter.

    “Can you hear me, judge?” Mr Ponton responded as a kitten.

    “I can hear you. I think it’s a filter,” the judge replied.

    “It is, and I don’t know how to remove it,” the lawyer said in response.

    Later, in a phone interview with The New York Times, the lawyer talking about the incident said: “If I can make the country chuckle for a moment in these difficult times they’re going through, I’m happy to let them do that at my expense.”

    Mr Ponton added that his secretary – whose computer he was using for the call – was “embarrassed” by the mistake.

    But the whole incident took less than a minute before he figured out how to deactivate the filter and return to business.

    “My older and less humorous face popped up, and we continued with the hearing,” he said.

    Judge Ferguson shared the video clip on Twitter with the caption: “These fun moments are a by-product of the legal profession’s dedication to ensuring that the justice system continues to function in these tough times. Everyone involved handled it with dignity, and the filter lawyer should incredible grace. True professionalism all around.”

    74-year-old man returns stolen handcuffs to police after 60 years

    A 74-year-old man has written a heartfelt apology to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) while returning a pair of handcuffs that he had stolen more than 60 years ago.

    The elderly man reportedly from Vista in San Diego County has returned a pair of stolen handcuffs, $100 and an apology letter through a parcel to LAPD’s West Valley Station to teach his grandchildren that it is never too late to apologise for their mistakes.

    Photos of the interesting package were shared on social media by the police department, grabbing the attention of social media users.

    According to details, more than 60 years ago when the man was a teen, he was at a restaurant when he witnessed a fight involving an LAPD officer.

    He got his hands on the handcuffs after they flew off and slid toward him. He picked them up, took them home and kept them for all this time.

    “I have felt a little guilty each time I saw the handcuffs over the years but did nothing about it,” the man wrote in the letter.

    Recently, his grandsons aged 6 and 9 visited him and were playing with plastic handcuffs. That’s when the grandfather showed him the handcuffs he had and shared the story of how he got them.

    “They were aghast and asked me why I stole the handcuffs from a policeman. I, of course, had no good explanation and I told them it was the wrong thing to do and I wasn’t proud of it and then I danced around the subject,” read the letter.

    “The note is addressed to you but is partly intended for my grandsons,” the grandfather wrote.

    He later sent it back to the LAPD along with the donation and an apology letter. The letter was posted on social media by the police department, saying that it’s never too late to do the right thing.

    Netizens appreciated the act, finding it cute and sweet.

    Serial killer kills two more women after release on bail

    Indian police have arrested a serial killer who allegedly murdered two more women after the court released him on bail.

    Hyderabad city police commissioner Anjani Kumar told the media that Maina Ramulu was involved in the murder of 18 women over the last 24 years and was arrested and convicted earlier in 16 cases of murder.

    Police said Ramulu became a psychopath at the age of 21 and started targetting married women after his wife eloped with her boyfriend.

    Hyderabad Police Task Force arrested 45-year-old Ramulu in the city in connection with the murder of two women in Ghatkesar and Siddipet towns in December 2020. According to police, Ramulu used to approach women in their 30s and intoxicate them by offering liquor and took them to isolated areas apparently to have sex.

    In many cases after killing women with stones or strangulating them, he would burn their faces by pouring alcohol to make identification difficult. He continued to commit the crimes even after serving an eight-year term in jail and coming out on bail.

    In the latest incident, he picked up one Venkatamma from a liquor vend in Yusufguda area of Hyderabad on December 30 and killed her at an isolated spot in Ghatkesar. The other victim, an unidentified woman in her 30s, was picked up from a vend to death at a village.

    After his first arrest in 2009, a local court sentenced Ramulu to life imprisonment on February 2011.

    During his sentence he was admitted to mental hospital for treatment. While he was in hospital he escaped with five other inmates on December 30, 2011.

    During the next two years, he committed five more murders on the borders of the city and was re-arrested by the police in May 2013. Later, he approached a high court for release and committed two more murders while on bail.

    “I suffered a lot because of what my wife did to me. I killed these women to see that others don’t suffer like me,” Maina Ramulu had told the police after his arrest.
