Child builds tiny cart for Joe the paraplegic bunny

Reporter: Jennifer Waddell

TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - When the O'Rourke family of Tucson found a couple of Easter-time bunnies in their back yard, they knew right away that something wasn't quite right.

There was a reason the mother rabbit abandoned them.  Paul O'Rourke realized one bunny they named Joe had no use of his hind legs.  Paul and his family helped nurse the bunnies back to health, but then they went one step further to help the paraplegic bunny.

Paul's son Liam designed and built a small cart for Joe to help him move around a little easier.  The red wagon with yellow wheels took some getting used to, but ultimately seemed to improve his mobility.

After Joe and his brother were feeling a bit better, the O'Rourke family took them to a wildlife rescue center.

Paul provided KGUN9 a home video they produced to document Joe the Tucson Easter bunny.

 

Awesome.

Epsilon breach. Email addresses compromised.

I've received emails from both Best Buy and Chase bank alerting me to the fact that email addresses were stolen from Epsilon, a company they both use to send out email to customers. Apparently, only email addresses were compromised. Keep an eye out for fraudulent messages from your bank, etc. and remember to never give out personal information in response to an email. Chase, BestBuy, etc. will never request personal info via email.

Mom charged after son's body found in oven

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - A Mississippi mother was arrested Wednesday in the death of her 3-year-old son after authorities said they found the child's burned body in an oven.

Washington County Coroner Methel Johnson said police found Tristan Robinson's body inside the electric oven at his mother's apartment shortly after midnight. Johnson said the child had been burned in the oven, but an autopsy was ordered to determine whether he died before or after being put there.

Greenville Police Chief Freddie Cannon said Terrie A. Robinson, 24, was charged with murder. She was to be arraigned Thursday in Greenville, a city of about 35,000 residents in the Mississippi Delta.

It wasn't immediately clear if she had hired a lawyer.

Johnson said the child's body was still warm when it was removed from the oven.

"This is a really sad moment for me. I've seen a lot of things, but this is one that will stick in my memory for a long, long time," Johnson said.

There appeared to be some trauma to the boy's head, Johnson said, and that could have happened before he was placed in the oven.

Officers found the body after responding to an emergency call, but the chief didn't want to release any details because of an ongoing investigation.

Johnson said a little girl found in the home was placed in the care of the Mississippi Department of Human Services.

Terrie Robinson's twin sister, Sherrie Robinson, told WXVT-TV that people should not judge her sister before all the facts are known.

"She was a great parent, a good person. We don't know what's wrong. We don't know what happened. Do not sit there and call her a bad mom cause that's not what she is," Sherrie Robinson told the TV station.

Call me crazy, but I'm pretty sure putting your kid in an oven makes you a bad mom. Where do these people come from?
