Dentist goes to strip club, leaves infant in car

SUBURBAN WEST PALM BEACH, FL–A dental surgeon is under arrest after the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office says he left his 8-month-old baby in his running vehicle while he went into Flashdance, a local strip club.

“Our concern, what if somebody broke into the car and stole the car not knowing there was a baby? What if something like a gunshot happened in the parking lot, which is not unusual. The baby could be hit by a stray bullet,” said Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Talal Masri.

Dental DVDs at Center of Toothy Lawsuit

Ordinarily, lawyers like to talk about lawsuits having teeth. A recent copyright case filed in Virginia federal court, however, seems to actually be about them.

According to Amberly, Cooksey and Spear began working together several years ago to arrange large dental conferences. In 2004, Cooksey began producing, compiling and editing DVDs to use at the events. The last of them was completed in 2008. more
