in Oakland County on November 30, 2021, were each sentenced to over 10 years in prison on April 9 after a jury in an Oakland County courtroom in Pontiac, Michigan, convicted them of manslaughter.

After riding water slides, a young man dies: What do the docs say
| |
|
NOIDA, Apr 9: Dhananjay Maheshwari was 24 and as fit as a fiddle, his father claimed. He enjoyed the thrill of going down like a bomb through the water shoot in a Noida (Delhi-NCR) water park but soon felt uneasy and collapsed. Taken to hospital, he was declared dead. Autopsy could not determine the cause of death.
Water park: The water flows down from the top of slides. As water reduces friction, sliders move down the slides very quickly and run into a plunge pool. There are so many frills too, adding amusement to the excitement in a water park.

Chopping comes to England: Metson to be sentenced on Monday
| |
|
LINCOLN (Lincolnshire, England), April 7: Her hamster was put into the mixie, and the puppy into the washing machine. That was enough warning, but she stayed on and on ... Metson was non-serious about covering up the crime, and was playfully concocting some childish lies when police asked him where is Bramley. Later, his wife's dismembered parts were discovered in 224 packets scattered in River Witham by a host of divers employed by the cops, tipped off by Metson's own friend. Bramley's grieving mother foolishly said Metson is an "evil monster." He, in fact, is simply a full-blown psychopath, wrongly diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder by his doctor.
