I'm sure it would have been tempting to sell it on and say nothing.

Woman jailed for testicle attack    :'(

A woman who ripped off her ex-boyfriend's testicle with her bare hands has been sent to prison.
Amanda Monti, 24, flew into a rage when Geoffrey Jones, 37, rejected her advances at the end of a house party, Liverpool Crown Court heard.

She pulled off his left testicle and tried to swallow it, before spitting it out. A friend handed it back to Mr Jones saying: "That's yours."

Monti admitted wounding and was jailed for two-and-a-half years.

'Pulled hard'

Sentencing Monti, Judge Charles James said it was "a very serious injury" and that Monti was not acting in self defence.

The court heard that Mr Jones had ended his long-term but "open relationship" with Monti towards the end of May last year.

The pair remained on good terms and on 30 May she picked him up from a party in Crosby and went back for drinks with friends at Mr Jones's house.

An argument ensued and Mr Jones said there was a struggle between them.

In his statement, Mr Jones said she grabbed his genitals and "pulled hard".

He added: "That caused my underpants to come off and I found I was completely naked and in excruciating pain."

The court heard that a friend saw Monti put Mr Jones's testicle into her mouth and try to swallow it.

She choked and spat it back into her hand before the friend grabbed it and gave it back to Mr Jones. Doctors were unable to re-attach the organ.

In a letter to the court, Monti said she was sorry for what she had done.

She said: "It was never my intention to cause harm to Geoff and the fact that I have caused him injury will live with me forever. I am in no way a violent person."

The letter added: "I have challenged myself to explain what has happened but still I just cannot remember. This has caused much anguish to me and will do for the rest of my life."

Japan boy 'severs mother's head' 
A teenage Japanese boy has walked into a police station carrying a severed human head and claiming to have killed his mother.
The 17-year-old went to a police station in the town of Aizuwakamatsu, north of Tokyo, carrying the head in a sports bag, Japanese media said.

Japan's Kyodo news agency reported that the body of a woman was later found at the boy's home.

The incident is the latest in a string of grisly killings in Japan.

On Monday a severed human leg was discovered in a small river in central Tokyo.

In January, a 32-year-old woman was arrested after she confessed to killing her husband, dismembering him with a saw and dumping body parts around Tokyo.

In the latest case, the boy, said to be a high school student, reportedly told police he killed his mother overnight and acted alone.

Aizuwakamatsu is located in Fukushima prefecture, some 200km (125 miles) north of Tokyo.

FROM THE BBC

A hospital in the Republic of Ireland has set up an inquiry to investigate how a man pronounced dead was later found to be alive by morgue staff.
The disabled patient, in his 30s, was being treated in Dublin's Mater Hospital on Easter Sunday when ward staff mistakenly certified his death.

By the time the error was spotted his family had already been informed and were grieving for their loss.

The man has since been released from hospital.

A spokesman for the Mater said management have set up an inquiry.
