  • Cornelius Owens rapped with friend Deshaun Jones only days before the 15-year-old  Jones was shot and killed while standing near a group of adults participating in a dice game on West Fayette Street in Baltimore.

  • Samira Salmassi lives in a persistent vegetative state. Her ex-husband, who was living with her and their three children, attacked her in their home.<br />
<br />
In 2005, Ghafour "Billy" Asemani, 38, walked into Howard County police headquarters and told the officer at the front desk that he had killed Salmassi, 38, the mother of his three children, that morning during an argument in which he struck her with a tape recorder and "placed his hands around her neck," according to court records. The argument began when Asemani confronted his ex-wife about telephone conversations that he had taped of her speaking to other men.<br />
<br />
Asemani is serving a 30-year prison sentence for the attempted murder of Salmassi. They were divorced in 2001 as he served time in prison. She had welcomed him back into her home after he was paroled for healthcare fraud. The three children have been taken care of by friends, and attended the Milton Hershey School in Pennsylvania.

  • "CHUNK"<br />
Life for 17-year-old "Chunk," James to his family, is not easy. He lives with his mother, a six-year-old sister and two recently born twin boys. The family is on welfare and his stepfather has been jailed for drugs. As with many teens like him, the high school junior has difficulty getting work or keeping a job.<br />
<br />
The lure of the gang lifestyle, with its drugs, money and sense of kinship, constantly tugs at him. Chunk feels the weight of the world on his shoulders, and feels it is getting heavier by the day. He sees his escape as when he graduates high school and attempts to join the Marine Corps.<br />
<br />
<br />
"Chunk" as James is known among his friends, cleans the family car every weekend even though he cannot drive it. The family cannot afford car insurance, thus no license.

  • Fluffy Sayan, a silkie hen, lives in Hunt Vally with several other chickens and three children.  Kristen and Paul Sayan adopted a young Silkie hen they christened Fluffy, which is a unique characteristic of the breed. Blind in one eye from an infection early in life, Fluffy lives kind of large with the Sayans. "She is extremely friendly and tolerates being carried around constantly," says Kristen.<br />
<br />
Fluffy has also become the family's largest egg producer, laying five to seven eggs per week and continuing to lay long into the fall, when their other chickens stop for the year.

  • Jamie Hollandsworth has had pets all her life, but she wasn't quite sure what to expect when her nephew asked her to take in a turtle he'd bought on vacation. Then the size of a quarter, Franklin came to live in Hollandsworth's Bel Air home.<br />
<br />
It is illegal to sell eggs or turtles smaller than four inches throughout the United States, and in Maryland it is illegal to release the species, declared invasive, into the wild. This often happens after owners realize the cute baby turtles can turn into a lifetime commitment. Most red-eared slider turtles live for 20 to 30 years, although some can live for more than 40, and can grow to a foot in length.<br />
<br />
Life with the turtle hasn't come without surprises.  "I thought Franklin was a male when I got him seven years ago," she says. "But this past March, I found 10 eggs in her tank. We now know that Franklin is a female." Whoops.
