Lightning ride electric power play to 4-2 victory over CanucksThe daughter of an Oklahoma mayor — who is also the wife of the town’s police chief — has been found guilty of child sex crimes after having an inappropriate relationship with one of her students. Emma Delaney Hancock, a 28-year-old former substitute teacher in Wellston, will serve four years in prison after being sentenced for two counts of soliciting sex with a minor through the use of technology on Wednesday, KFOR reported. Hancock, the daughter of Wellston Mayor Paul Whitnah and wife of Wellston Police Chief Alfred Hancock, still claims innocence and argues that the victim is lying, according to the outlet. An arrest affidavit obtained by the KOKH revealed that Hancock began talking to the then-15-year-old boy in October 2022 after getting his number under the guise of helping him with classwork. Later that night, the substitute teacher sent the boy a friend request on Snapchat, leading to several weeks of communication between them. Over those weeks, the conversations escalated to the point of trading nude images and videos, the teen said. The affidavit went on to state that the student went to the sub’s classroom, where she kissed and groped him while they hid inside a closet on two occasions. The teacher was also letting the 15-year-old use her vape pen, court documents said. At one point, the boy told his friend about the inappropriate nature of his relationship with Hancock, prompting the other student to confront the substitute. When asked by the other teen if the rumors were true, police said that Hancock initially denied the allegations before admitting to them, telling the student that the illegal relationship would “not amount to anything because they were not going to get caught.” After the teen reported the relationship to the authorities in November 2022, investigators obtained a warrant and searched Hancock’s devices, finding videos related to the incidents. The disgraced teacher turned herself in to the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office in April 2023, before posting bond, KOKH reported. Wellston Public Schools superintendent Mike Franz said Hancock was “immediately removed from our call list and not allowed back on campus” after being made aware of the allegations when the victim reported them. “In addition, the district immediately notified local, county, and state (OSBI) law enforcement officials. The district cooperated, when asked, throughout OSBI’s investigation,” Franz added in a statement obtained by the local outlet. Police Chief Alfred Hancock supported his wife, with whom he has two children, throughout the trial, testifying that she did not commit any crimes. “She looked me dead in the eyes and said, there’s nothing [on her phone]. I mean, I believe that there’s nothing there,” he told jurors, according to NonDoc. “She’s my wife. I believe her. I’m on her side.” Hancock herself also took the stand, admitting to letting the student hit her vape pen but denying anything else. “The only explanation I have is he was using a vape pen — which I was in the wrong for — and the story got blown up into something it wasn’t,” she testified. “I feel like there were a couple of inappropriate instances but I don’t think that defines who I am as a person or a teacher,” she added. Despite being acquitted of two charges of “lewd or indecent acts to (a) child under 16” and one of “soliciting sexual conduct or communication with (a) minor by use of technology,” she was still found guilty on the two solicitation charges. On top of prison time, Hancock will also have to register as a sex offender. Her victim has remained in online school since the grooming, his family said. “It’s just too much,” one of his relatives told KFOR. “So, he’s going to go back online. So, his entire high school years were online. So, we missed all that. The sports events, the prom, walking across the stage.”711 zapote 。

Football legend Alex Scott bravely opens up about harrowing online threats, revealing how vile trolls have escalated their attacks on her following rumours related to her television career. The former Lioness and seasoned broadcast presenter, who has shone on-screen for BBC programmes like The One Show and served as a trusted football pundit, has faced a barrage of racist abuse and chilling threats, including horrifying claims they would harm her with acid. At 40, Scott is not only a familiar face in sports broadcasting but also known for her relationship with chart-topper Jess Glynne; the pair has reportedly been together since 2023. However, her ascent in television was marred by cruelty online, especially during speculation that she would succeed Sue Barker as the host of A Question Of Sport - claims which were doused as Paddy McGuinness eventually took the reigns. Speaking with The Times, Alex revealed the extent of the terror she felt, confessing: "I was scared to go out of the house because these trolls were saying they were going to throw acid in my face." She further commented on the downside of public life, sharing: "There are negatives to fame. I've had plenty of racism, abuse and even death threats."

She's just ticking boxes'... Luckily there are other people who keep me smiling. They'll come up to me in my local shop and say, 'Keep going,' and that's what I do." When Paddy McGuinness took the helm of A Question of Sport, he was met with a wave of criticism from viewers questioning his lack of sporting background. This controversy seemed to take its toll on the programme's viewership, leading to a significant drop in ratings. Ultimately, the BBC decided to cancel the iconic quiz show in 2023, ending its impressive 55-year run. The decision to end A Question of Sport came just two years after Paddy assumed hosting duties. In a landmark move for Football Focus, Alex was announced as the new host in May 2021, becoming the first woman to permanently present the show in its 46-year history. Upon her appointment to Football Focus, an ecstatic Alex shared: "When I was a kid, I would never have watched television and thought someone like me could be presenting a programme like Football Focus. For the BBC to trust me with this role and allow me to be my true, authentic self means a lot. To say I'm the Football Focus presenter feels surreal. I've had some amazing messages and an incredible reaction on social media - I want to thank everyone for their support."No. 16 Cincinnati tests efficient offense vs. Alabama StateFG FT Reb PENN ST.

The Sweden midfielder hailed Saturday’s 4-0 thrashing of the champions as the best game of his career. The 24-year-old delivered an outstanding performance as Spurs shattered the champions’ 52-game unbeaten home run, helping start the rout with a superb cross for James Maddison’s opening goal. Kulusevski said: “I believed (we would win) this because in the past years, we’ve come here and played really well. “So this is the game I look forward to most in the year and, once again, it happened – glory to God. “I’d say it’s the best result ever in my career. It’s a big night for the whole club, for the coach, for the players. “Because City have a lot of the ball sometimes, we can rest when we defend. There’s also so much space up there, we play one against one and then it’s always dangerous because we have a lot of quality. “It’s always great to play great teams because they always want to play football. When you play lower teams, sometimes it’s not. There’s not much football played because they are a lot of fouls, a lot of injuries and it’s slow going.” Maddison stole the show with two goals in quick succession in the first half while Pedro Porro and Brennan Johnson later got on the scoresheet.

I’m very happy, I’m trying to improve. “I started the season good but there is over half of the season left and I hope I can do much better. “I think I have something that no other player has.

Tampa Bay’s Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 22 of the 24 shots he faced and Kevin Lankinen made 28 saves for Vancouver. TAKEAWAYS Canucks: Hughes took a stick to the face 55 seconds into the game, missed more than 11 minutes, then returned to open the scoring 16:08 into the first period. It was the 50th goal of the defenceman’s career and extended his points streak to seven games with three goals and 10 assists across the stretch. Lightning: Kucherov, who returned to the lineup Sunday after missing two games with a lower-body injury, added another potent piece to Tampa’s red-hot power play.

Proposed blockbuster 3-team trade brings multiple All-Stars to Phillies | Sporting NewsChelsea roared back from two goals down to beat Tottenham 4-3 on Sunday, moving just four points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool after Arsenal were held by Fulham. The Gunners and Chelsea both started the day seven points adrift of Arne Slot's side, whose game this weekend was postponed due to stormy weather. Arsenal were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw but Enzo Maresca's Chelsea, kicking off later Sunday, mounted a stunning comeback at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Dominic Solanke and Dejan Kulusevski put Spurs two goals up inside 11 minutes but Jadon Sancho quickly pulled one back with a fine strike and the second half belonged to the visitors. Cole Palmer equalised from the penalty spot in the 61st minute and Enzo Fernandez put Chelsea ahead 12 minutes later. Palmer's ice-cool "Panenka" spot-kick gave the visitors a two-goal cushion before Son Heung-min added a late third for Spurs. Second-placed Chelsea now have 31 points after 15 games, two points ahead of London rivals Arsenal. Liverpool, with a game in hand, are on 35 points. "The plan or the idea is to not let the players slow down," Maresca told Sky Sports. "They cannot drop because they know another player is waiting to come in." But the Italian, in his first season at Stamford Bridge, played down his team's title chances. "Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool probably don't slide like what Cucurella did," he added. "To be serious, we are not ready – we are far from these teams, but we focus on day-by-day and trying to improve the team." The defeat is a disastrous result for under-pressure Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou, whose side hammered champions Manchester City 4-0 just two weeks ago. "It is a sore one, a painful one," said the Australian, whose team are now 11th in the Premier League table after their seventh defeat. Earlier, Bukayo Saka had a late winner ruled out for offside by a VAR review as the Gunners' four-match winning streak was halted in west London. Raúl Jiménez fired Fulham into an early lead before William Saliba levelled after yet another Arsenal goal from a corner. "We are very disappointed not to win the game – overall we absolutely dominated the game from start to end," Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta said. "We did all the things that we wanted to do during the game and unfortunately we concede one goal in one shot. The way the team played, the way the team wanted to win, it was unbelievable." Arsenal were still without influential defensive pair Gabriel Magalhães and Riccardo Calafiori through injury and Fulham exposed a makeshift left side of the Gunners' backline to take the lead. Arsenal underlined their threat from set-pieces when they scored twice from corners to beat Manchester United 2-0 in midweek. (AFP)
