MAN POISONS HIMSELF AFTER MISREADING INNOCENT MESSAGE ON GIRLFRIEND'S PHONE

A cagefighter killed himself with poison after misreading an innocent
message sent to his girlfriend, a coroner heard.

Christopher Forkin, 23, of Waterfoot, Lancashire, swallowed a deadly
amount of the substance after spotting the text on lover Paige
Nuttall's phone.

During a furious row with the 21-year old, he tipped over his sofa and
was pulling doors off their hinges telling her: 'You are just like the
rest of them.'

Miss Nuttall left his flat telling him to 'cool down' but when she
came back, she found him dying on the floor. The 23-year-old was taken
by ambulance to hospital but died later.

The details of what was in the text were not revealed at his inquest.

An inquest was told slaughterman Forkin, whose cage fights are posted
to YouTube, could have taken the substance from a farm he worked at
for several years.

He and Paige had been in a relationship for just one month after they
met on a night out in Rossendale, Lancs.


Tragedy struck in March while the lovers were drinking at his flat in
nearby Waterfoot.

In a statement read out at Burnley coroners court, Miss Nuttall said
father-of-two Forkin – had been 'mad' after reading the text messages
on her phone.

She said: 'I had left my phone lying around and he had seen some
innocent messages from a friend. He tipped the couch over and was
pulling the doors off the hinges.

'He was breaking things and crying but I managed to calm him down. He
said "you are just like the rest of them'. I told Chris that I was
going out for some fags and left him at the house".'


But after she left  Forkin drank a 'substantial amount' of the poison
which is used by farmers to kill vermin.

Describing the moment she found Forkin face-down on his stomach when
she returned, she said: 'When I left the house I realised that I had
no money, I went back to the flat to find Chris on the floor and I
said "what have you taken?".

'His fist was clenched and he was shaking and fitting. I put my finger
in his mouth so that he wouldn't swallow his tongue.

'I was hysterical and remember him saying "remember I love you".'

She called paramedics who took Forkin to Royal Blackburn Hospital were
he later died.

Fire crews from the hazardous materials unit in Burnley attended the
scene as a precautionary measure in case the property needed to be
decontaminated.

Farmer Frank Ainsworth, who employed Forkin said his employee would
have known the substance could be fatal but he said he was unaware any
bottles were missing from his store.

Mr Ashworth said: 'Christopher was a polite, trustworthy and reliable
worker. He liked a drink and was quiet when he was sober but not when
he was drunk.

'He knew that the poison was fatal and we had used it on the lambs to
poison foxes.'

Forkin had recently taken up martial arts training at Waterfoot-based
Team Warriors Elite and had been due to take part in a cage fight
event.

Recording an open verdict East Lancashire Coroner Richard Taylor said:
'The evidence doesn't point in one particular direction to say he was
meant to kill himself as drink was involved. My sincere condolences go
out to his family.'

In a family statement Forkin's relatives said: 'Christopher was a
different lad when he had a drink and if he hadn't have had this
argument with his girlfriend over a text message he may not have taken
his own life.'

Head coach of Team Warriors Elite, Declan Williams said at the time of
Forkin's death: 'The whole club is distraught to hear that Chris has
died. He had so much going for him. We can't understand why this has
happened.

'He always had a huge smile on his face whatever the situation. He was
such a nice person and a pleasure to train, a very valuable member of
the team.'

Danny Brelsford who trained with Forkin added: 'I had been training
with Chris during the daytime. He was honestly one of the nicest
people I have ever met.

'He was known for his infectious smile and his positive carefree
attitude. He will be greatly missed.'

Forkin was a former pupil of Fearns Community Sports College,
Rawtenstall and on his Facebook site posted a quote saying: 'Train
hard, fight hard, play harder. Life's too short to wonder "what if" so
live every day to the full.'

Chocolate City Music rapper Jude Abaga, popularly known as Mr.
Incredible was knighted on Thursday, 9 October 2012 as UNODC's
Goodwill Ambassador on Smuggling of Migrants in Abuja.

Smuggling has been defined as the procurement of such peoples into a
State for financial or material benefit. Virtually every country in
the world is affected by this crime; Nigeria is no exception.

In Europe, Nigerians constitute several hundreds of thousands illegal
migrants with half of them concentrated in the United Kingdom.
Poverty, crime, corruption and violence have been part of the vicious
cycle contributing to this considerable emigration pressure.

Traffickers offer young women an opportunity to travel to Europe with
promises of good jobs and the ability to cater for their families,
while boys and men are smuggled with promises of safety and similar
work opportunities.

M.I, has been selected to speak against this vicious cycle. He serves
as a role model capable of speaking powerfully against such smuggling.
His journey in hip-hop within Africa stands to remind young men and
women that even when the odds are stacked against you, persistence and
hard-work pay off.

PHOTOS:WOMEN WiTH THE WORLD’S TINIEST WAIST AND WORLD’S LONGEST LEGS

Looking at 75 year old Cathie Jung's tiny waist below, the first thing
that comes to mind is probably Photoshop or surgery but no!

Her waist is as real as it gets. Coming in at just 15inches (38cm),
her unbelievable tiny waist makes her figure distinctly hourglas
s-like.

The Queen of Corsets, as she has aptly named herself, has worn
tight-fitting corsets for years (since she was 38) to get to this
shape, and appears in the body parts section of the Guinness Book of
World Records.

Emphatically, she has never had surgery to reduce her waist.

Russian woman Svetlana Pankratova has, according to Guinness World
Records, the longest legs of any woman in the world. While she is not
the world's tallest woman, her legs are 132 centimeters (4 ft 4 in)
long; the total height of some humans, lol!

Because her upper body is of much more typical dimensions, she is 196
centimeters (6 ft 5 in) tall. She has also very large feet, size 13
(US) / 46 (EU).

Katie Holmes Am Loving My New Life Without Tom Cruise:

Katie Holmes is enjoying her new life being single since her divorce
from Tom Cruise and has no plans on dating anyone anytime soon.

"Katie is just flourishing in her new life," a source close to the
situation tells Radar. "Yes, there have been some dark moments but she
was more than ready to embark on the next phase of her life post-Tom
Cruise. Katie felt that her professional career suffered because she
was married to Tom and that she didn't have the final say in her
acting roles. Katie is currently busy preparing for her role in Dead
Accounts.

"Katie believes in love and hopes to get remarried one day but has
absolutely no plans on dating anytime soon. Katie is devoted to being
the best parent possible to Suri [Cruise] and continuing a smooth
transition into their new lives together. Katie knows bringing a new
man into the situation would only cause more stress for Suri right now
and the actress is still recovering from the end of her marriage to
Tom."

As previously reported, leaked legal documents dated August 17 and
signed by New York State Supreme Court Judge Matthew F. Cooper offer
details of the divorce decree, including the specifics of the A-list
couples custody agreement.

The marital relationship had broken down irretrievably for a period of
at least six months immediately preceding, the papers state.

Tom, 50, and Katie, 33, tied the knot in a lavish wedding in Italy in
2006. However, the legal documents say they officially married in a
civil ceremony in Los Angeles on November 11, 2006. A prenuptial
agreement was acknowledged and signed by Holmes months earlier.


In terms of child support, Tom was ordered to pay $400,000 a year to
cover Suris medical, dental, insurance, unreimbursed medical and
dental, education, college, extracurricular and camp expenses.

Meanwhile, "Tom has been in daily contact with Suri via telephone and
Skype. Suri has been telling her dad what she has been learning in
school. Katie and Tom are now talking also and are working to
co-parent Suri. Tom is hoping to see Suri around Halloween as he has
been filming a movie in London," the insider reveals.
