Mob Beats Up Deaf Woman Over 'Kidnapping'

A four-month pregnant Deaf woman was beaten up by a mob over suspicion that she was a child lifter.

NEW DELHI, India -- A pregnant and Deaf woman was thrashed by a mob over suspicion of being a child-lifter in northeast Delhi, police said on Sunday, an incident which comes close on the heels of mob attacks over similar rumours in neighbouring Uttar Pradesh.

Several people have been injured in violence over the rumours in UP over the past week, forcing the state police to warn the public that it has decided to invoke the stringent National Security Act against rumour-mongers.

The four-month pregnant woman was beaten up by a mob in Harsh Vihar on August 27 over suspicion that she was a child lifter, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Northeast) Atul Kumar Thakur said.

The DCP said a case has been registered at the Harsh Vihar police station under Indian Penal Code sections for voluntarily causing hurt and wrongful restraint.

"We have arrested two persons, Deepak (27) and B Shakuntala (52), residents of Mandoli," he said. He urged people not to pay heed to rumours of child abduction.

The woman's family alleged that her in-laws had banished her from their Faridabad home on August 18 and said she was missing since then.

"Somehow the woman reached Harsh Vihar and was staying on a footpath. Locals used to give her food but on August 27, they attacked her over allegations of child lifting," a police officer said.

The family approached the Delhi Police after seeing a video of the incident.

Deaf Couple Dead In Apparent Murder-Suicide

Deaf News: Man, woman die in murder-suicide in Idaho shooting.

CALDWELL, Idaho -- Four children are without their parents following Monday’s domestic violence shooting, which was the second deadly case of domestic violence in Canyon County in the past nine weeks.

An investigation indicated that Ian S. Stone, 37, shot Jaclyn D. Zabel, 29, and then turned the gun on himself, according to a press release from Canyon County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Marv Dashiell.

“Investigators have determined the incident was a domestic violence situation which elevated to the most severe type of situation and resulted in the loss of life,” according to the sheriff’s release.

Zabel and Stone, both Deaf, and their four children practiced jiu-jitsu in northern Idaho at Bonners Ferry BJJ, according to Sam Brown, their coach and friend.

“The whole family was well liked up here and there is a lot of broken hearts,” he said. “We are all shocked and deeply saddened by what transpired on Monday.”

Zabel’s death was ruled a homicide, according to the Ada County Coroner’s Office. She was pronounced dead at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center around 7 a.m. Tuesday.

Zabel died later Tuesday night in a Boise hospital, according to the release.

The Ada County Coroner’s Office release stated both died of a gunshot wound to the head.

Stone’s last Facebook post, published 8:34 a.m. Monday, expressed turmoil over the relationship.

“Inside of me is broke,” read part of his post, just an hour before the shooting.

The relationship between Stone and Zabel has not been made clear by police.

Two months ago, Stone bid Zabel a happy anniversary on Facebook. “To my beautiful wife, Jacy Zabel,” his post read on March 28. “Want to say happy 9 years anniversary together. I love you so much with all my heart. We been through good time and bad time.”

First responders arrived at 19351 Wagner Road in Caldwell around 9:30 a.m. Monday. Children were removed from the house after the shooting, according to Dashiell. How many children were present and the names of their parents have not been released.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families involved in this terrible situation,” the sheriff’s office release states.

Stone was previously convicted of misdemeanor domestic battery in 2007 after pleading guilty to the charge in Bonner County, according to the Idaho online courts repository. He participated in a diversion program for the charge, according to the repository. In 2015, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disturbing the peace and destruction of a telecommunication line in Bonner County.

A Meal Train has been set up to support the Zabel family. People can donate money or provide meals.

Brown said he plans to work with the jiu-jistu members to see how else they can help the children and family members impacted by their deaths.

Two months and one day earlier from Monday’s shooting, Kymberlee Larsen, a 22-year-old mother, was killed in a domestic violence stabbing in Nampa. According to the sheriff’s office, Evan C. Bashir, 29, broke into a Nampa house and stabbed Larsen and Larsen’s sister and mother. Her sister, Chelsea Larsen, 27, and her mother, Julianna Flowers, 57, recovered from their injuries.

Bashir was shot and killed by one of two responding Nampa Police officers.

Bashir and Larsen were in a romantic relationship that had been deteriorating for some time, Canyon County Sheriff Keiran Donahue said in a press conference in March.

This month, U.S. Sen. Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, wrote an opinion piece urging the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act.

The Act, which was signed into law in 1994, has been reauthorized three times since. It has helped Idaho nonprofits and agencies provide life-saving services to domestic violence, dating violence and sexual assault victims.

The Idaho Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence reported that in 2016 there were 6,067 incidents of intimate partner violence and 2,063 incidents of sexual assault reported to law enforcement agencies in Idaho, according to Crapo.

CPD Gets New VRS Equipment To Assist Deafies

Deaf News: Cleveland Police Department gets new video relay service equipment to assist Deaf community.

CLEVELAND, OH -- The Cleveland Police Department has invested in new equipment to help its officers better serve the Deaf community.

The department announced Wednesday that all officers have been trained to use video technology that gives them instant access to an American Sign Language interpreter.

Officials from the police department and local advocates for the hearing-impaired demonstrated the new equipment Thursday.

"The reality is there are barriers in place for some members of our community," Cleveland police Capt. James McPike said. "This grant was intended to try to remove those barriers for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing community."

Each of the city's five police districts is stocked with an iPad equipped with the ZVRS video interpreter application. The application gives officers dealing with a Deaf crime victim, suspect or witness access to an interpreter within seconds.

The technology was purchased using a portion of a $350,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women that was awarded to the department in 2011, Cleveland police Sgt. Jennifer Ciaccia said.

The Cleveland Hearing and Speech Center and the Domestic Violence and Child Advocacy Center helped train the police force.

Deaf women in the U.S. experience domestic and sexual violence at rates twice those of hearing women, according to the Vera Institute of Justice, a nonprofit organization that advocates for fairness in the justice system. Yet they often encounter barriers when seeking help, from a phone-based 911 system to having their credibility as witnesses in court questioned.

The police department purchased the equipment after getting feedback from the Deaf community, said Maria O'Neil Ruddock, coordinator of training and outreach services for the Cleveland Hearing and Speech Center.

"The reason it's here is because the Deaf community has told us, 'We want access to the police, we want to be able to communicate, but it's difficult,'" O'Neil Ruddock said.

Cleveland is only one of two large police departments in the country using this technology, she added.

The department is also updating its general police orders to include a policy about communicating with the Deaf, McPike said. A draft of that policy is still in the approval stage.

Ciaccia said the interpreting technology is not related to a binding agreement with the Justice Department that requires the Cleveland police to improve the way they interact with citizens. The addition of the technology is the latest in a string of efforts by the department to expand training.

Mayor Frank Jackson announced in December that officers received first aid training and emergency medical kits.

The Cleveland Police Academy class that graduated in October was the first to receive 40 hours of crisis intervention training.
