How-U.S. veteran sues hospital after his private part amputated
A U.S. Army veteran has launched a $10-million lawsuit after an allegedly botched surgery forced him to have his penis amputated. Michael D. Nash, 61, underwent circumcision and penile implant surgery — usually used to treat erectile dysfunction — at the Veterans Administration hospital in Lexington, Ky., on Oct. 28, 2010. The lawsuit, filed against the federal government Tuesday, alleges a nurse put an ice pack on his penis to ease the swelling in post-op, and left it there for 19 hours straight. Nash was on heavy pain medication and only partially conscious at the time. His lawyer, Lawrence Jones, says the ice pack should have been removed after two to four hours. As a result, Nash's penis developed frostbite and gangrene, and he had to have five inches removed, Jones said. "If you can envision, on Day 1, you're looking at something red and irritated and burning, and over the course of the day, it goes to something that turns to a purplish colour that then turns to fully black," Jones said, adding his client was left with "this dark black rotting piece of the most important part of the body."
Wow-Drunk driver didn't know what country she was in
SARNIA, ONT. - A drunk driver from Michigan, who was so plastered she thought she was in Detroit when she crossed the Blue Water Bridge into Canada, was fined $1,500 in Sarnia court. Cassandra Rose Olbrys, 26, of St. Clair Shores, Mich. pleaded guilty Monday to the Sept. 16 impaired driving charge. Olbrys told a Canada Border Services Agency officer at 1 a.m. she did not want to come to Canada and thought she was in Detroit. She said she had been trying to go home and had not been drinking, but breath tests showed her blood-alcohol level was two-and-a-half times over the legal limit. Olbrys had no prior criminal record.
Olbrys should seek help in Michigan for the underlying issues that resulted in the offence, Justice Ann McFadyen said. The fine was above the $1,000 minimum for a first offence. Olbrys was ordered to pay the fine immediately.

Caught-Cop faces massage parlour sex charges
TORONTO - He’s a Toronto cop charged with forcing a massage parlour worker into giving him oral sex — and accused of taking advantage of other Asian women in the business as well. Det.-Const. Mandip Sandhu is in a tight spot as he fights for his career and his reputation — and in his corner is high-profile police lawyer Harry Black, who has come up with a rather, well, novel defence. With barely a pause to acknowledge the woman’s heated denials, Black delivered his version of what happened in that Toronto “holistic spa” on the morning of June 3, 2010: That to avoid being charged, she was actually the one who forced herself on the poor, unwilling officer. “You got down on your knees, you opened his zipper and you performed oral sex on him,” the wiry defence lawyer pronounced during his forceful cross-examination.
“This is ridiculous,” she countered through a Mandarin interpreter. “He forced me.” “He didn’t tell you to perform oral sex on him,” Black continued.
