Late Bengals WR had head injury before death

A lot of people regretted when late Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry died after an accident in his hometown. When we almost forget about this story, there came to be a report saying that Henry already had a head injury and it might affected his mental state and behavior and caused him to fall from a truck.

The tragedy happened after Henry had a quarrel with his fiancée, who started a pickup truck to drive away in anger and did not know that Henry jumped up into the back of the truck. Then Henry lost his balance and fell out, having his head hit on the ground. A Passer-by in Minnesota Vikings jersey found Henry and sent him to hospital immediately but the young man did not open his eyes again.

According to a result of a research done by researchers at West Virginia University, Henry already had chronic traumatic encephalopathy before the accident. Researchers said that that brain disease is not necessarily related to a concussion, which was never diagnosed on Henry during his NFL career, and the disease is always caused by multiple head impacts and is often found in professional football players.

Narcotics caused couple to sell their kid for $25

Two women met a couple outside of Wal-Mart on Wednesday morning. To their surprise, the couple told them that they were willing to sell their baby for only $25. The little baby was in a large Minnesota Vikings jersey and deep in sleep, unaware of what was happening around it. Fortunately the two women were kind and smart enough and finally saved the baby from its parents, who were under the influence of narcotics.

Anyone who came across to such happening would thought the couple were joking, and so did the two women, but they found that the father of the child was too persistent to be joking and they got to know what was happening must be insane. They talked with the couple, pretending to be interested in the deal, and got to know enough information for tracking the couple to their home. After saying goodbye to the couple, the two women called the police, who arrived at the couple’s home and found that both the baby’s father and mother were under the influence of narcotics.

After being charged, the mother of the kid admitted that she had breastfed the infant even when she was taking drugs. Both of the couple were charged with child endangerment and being under the influence of narcotics, and the kid was sent to hospital for health examination.
