Pregnant With Lies
Robin Folsom, 43, the for- mer director of external affairs for the Georgia Vocational Rehabilitation Agency, was indicted on Feb. 10 for faking multiple pregnancies in order to get paid leave from her po- sition, The Washington Post reported.
Folsom reported her latest pregnancy to human resources in October 2020 and allegedly gave birth in May 2021. The “father” of the newborn, Bran Otmembebwe, emailed her bosses and said her doctor had called for seven weeks of leave following the birth, which she ordinarily would not have re- ceived. Pictures that Folsom shared with co-workers were found to be “inconsistent and depicted children with vary- ing skin tones,” the inspector general’s report said. Co-work- ers also noticed that her baby bump seemed to be detached from her body. In addition, “a review of medical and insur-
oddler Locklan “Lock” Samples of Roswell, Georgia, looks “like a
little rock star” with his nearly white hair that stands straight out from his head, People re- ported on Feb. 23. But it was only by chance that his mom, Katelyn, discovered what causes Lock’s unusual locks: uncombable hair syndrome.
After hearing about the syn- drome, the Samples visited a specialist at Emory Hospital, who said she’s only seen one case in 19 years. But after tests, they confirmed that Lock had the condition, which causes hair to grow with a soft and very breakable texture. Kate- lyn said she rarely has to wash his hair, because it doesn’t get greasy, and she hardly brushes it because it’s so fragile.
ance records found no indi- cation that Folsom had ever delivered a child.”
“I just try ... not to mess with it unless I have to. It brings a smile to faces,” she said.
Folsom resigned after an October 2021 interview with investigators and is due back in court in April.

The Very Cold Front
‘Well-liked’ But Perverted
How cold was it in Bei- jing during the men’s 50km cross-country skiing event? It was so cold (1.4 degrees Fahr- enheit) that Finland’s Remi Lindholm, who spent an hour and 16 minutes covering the course, suffered some painful frostbite to an unspeakably del- icate body part that was not in- sulated enough by his thin suit and underlayer, The Guardian reported.
A “dedicated employee ... (who) enjoyed his job (and) was well-liked by the people he worked with” was charged on Feb. 9 in North Versailles, Pennsylvania, after he alleged- ly placed a hidden camera in a urinal at the North Versailles Police Department, WPXI-TV reported.
John Logan, 49, a 911 op- erator, is accused of placing the camera in a single-user bathroom in a hallway that is off-limits to the public. Once the incident was reported, Lo- gan allegedly went into the bathroom and removed the SD card from the camera; investi- gators searching Logan’s home found flash drives with videos of officers exposed while using the bathroom. He was charged
He endured a similar setback in Ruka, Finland, last year. Lindholm said he used a heat pack to thaw out the “append- age” after the Feb. 19 race but “the pain was unbearable. ... It was one of the worst competi- tions I’ve been in.”
