Zombie Spiders Exist. There’s a type of Costa Rican wasp that attacks a local org spider and paralyzes it. From there, it lays eggs in the spider’s abdomen. The spider wakes back up, until about two weeks later, when the larvae that are growing on the spider’s belly take over the spider’s brain, causing it to create a strange web. They then burst out of the spider and use the web to create their own wasp nest.

An
Aide to a U.S. congressman from Louisiana was busted in a
prostitution sting over the weekend. 47-year-old Jerod Prunty, who
works for Rep. Clay Higgins, was charged with two counts of pandering
in Lafayette Parish last Saturday. Police officials said at a press
conference that Prunty was caught up in a sweep of a number of
massage parlors and three houses, which were allegedly being used as
brothels. A spokesman for Higgins told the Daily Advertiser in a
statement, “We are shocked and saddened to learn of allegations
against Jerod. His arrest is deeply troubling.” The prostitution
sting was a result of a months-long investigation, which started
after complaints from local residents and neighbors. Police arrested
seven women and two men as involved in prostitution.
