Anne Darwin Sentenced To 6 Years For Helping Back From Dead Canoeist Husband
Posted in 50 Cent, Anne Darwin, John Darwin, Panama on 23 July 2008
Anne Darwin, a once devoted wife from a small Teeside town, was today sentenced to six years and six months in prison, after being found guilty on all 15 accounts of fraud. Her pleas that back-from the-dead husband John Darwin had forced her to go through with his shameful money laundering scheme, fell on deaf ears.
Splash News were the first to track down Anne Darwin in Panama, USA, back in December 2007. Originally she was just a woman who was over joyed that her husband, who was believed to be dead after disappearing at sea five years ago, had walked back into a London police station still very much alive. 
But a simple missing persons case, would soon show Anne had in fact been in equal partnership with her missing husband and had embarked knowingly and willingly on years of acting in a bid to be rich.
In a plot to avoid bankruptcy, the couple spent years hiding mammoth amounts of debt that became as deep as their pitt of torrid lies. Hiding the truth from their own children and family, the duo planned to set up a new life abroad in America. Eventually the day came when John could no longer live in hiding and he planned to return to his old life, claiming he couldn’t remember where he had been.
But this decision now sees the Darwins facing years in prison, after investigators unraveled an intriguing maze of evidence including private email accounts, detailed fraud plans and taped phone calls, showing how they mounted £250,000 worth of debt.
Although John Darwin pleaded guilty from the word go, he has only received 3 months less than his wife. He was sentenced to six years and three months.

Jennifer Garner Conveniently Hides That Belly
Posted in 50 Cent, Jennifer Garner, Pregnant on 19 July 2008

Jennifer Garner had the whole hiding-behind-a-bag thing going on when Splash ran into her on the street in West Hollywood– she must be doing it by habit now, since her baby news has already exploded across the Internet. Since her Alias co-star Victor Garber said that she’s already about 5 months along, we’ll be seeing bump shots soon enough. We hope!

50 Cent Goes To Court
Posted in 50 Cent, Curtis Jackson, Custody Hearing, Rapper, Singer, court on 17 July 2008
50 Cent felt it was unfair to be arrested just for wearing a white hat

 

50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) has been in Suffolk County Family Court in Central Islip, NY as part of a custody argument he is having with his ex, Shaniqua Tompkins. They are parents to their 11-year-old son, Marquise. Two motions will be decided by the judge: a protective order granted to Tompkins last month and a petition to enforce Curtis Jackson’s visitation rights.

Is it me, or does Shaniqua Tompkins look just like how Mel B would look like if she ate the rest of the Spice Girls (or at least, Victoria Beckham)? Also, if 50 Cent ever had a dual personality, would he consider himself a dollar? Was Marquise named after the Marquis de Sade? Important questions I think.

50 Cent suing his ex for claiming he burnt her house down

50 Cent is suing Shaniqua Tompkins, the mother of his son Marquise, for defamation. Shaniqua is claiming 50 is responsible for the fire last month that burnt down her house - with her and Marquise in it. But 50 knows how to handle snitches: litigation, son. Get all legal up on that ass. NY Daily News reports:

“There comes a point where you can no longer sit on your hands and listen to her spread these falsehoods,” 50’s lawyer, Brett Kimmel, tells us. “Besides hurting his reputation, they have a damaging impact on their son.”
The hip-hop king (real name, Curtis Jackson) charges that since the fire, Tompkins has refused to let him see Marquise or tell him where he’s living.

I bet I know where Marquise is living. Somewhere non-flammable! Am I right? High-five. But no, seriously, 50 should be allowed to talk to his son. Yeah, he kind of maybe considered Marquise’s life acceptable collateral damage in his battle with Shaniqua over the house, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love him. Okay, it does, but you’re missing the point here: The guy burns shit down when he doesn’t get his way.
