STORY TO BE TOLD

Ly Huong convicted of kidnapping in US


Vietnamese actress Ly Huong (right) leaves the Brooklyn Federal Courthouse with her lawyer Ed Kraff on December 13, 2010. Huong is facing charges of parental kidnapping.

Ly Huong, a Vietnamese actress, was convicted of kidnapping her daughter by a US court on Thursday, the New York Daily News reported. The charge carries a maximum sentence of three years in prison.
The jury rejected Ly Huong’s claims that she fled to Hanoi, with her daughter to escape an abusive marriage, the news source said.

Huong, who comes from a well-known entertainment family in Vietnam, told the jury that after marrying Tony Lam, also known as the “King of Canal St.”,she flew to New York. There Lam forced her to work in a pizza joint, talked about bringing home hookers and slapped her around, she testified.
In 2005, Huong left Lam and took their four-year-old daughter, Princess, to Vietnam. She was arrested during a return visit to the US, in 2008. Lam now has custody of the child.

Lam, meanwhile, denied all of Huong’s allegations. He claimed that he would be the first to die in a fight with the actress, who is a professional martial artist. They got married in 2001 in Los Angeles, he added. Huong’s defense lawyer, Edward Kratt, said he would appeal the ruling.

Justin Bieber “Rescued” by Police

Police had to rescue Justin Bieber out of a Canada mall after young girls too eager to get a glimpse of the teen pop star caused a security scare on Boxing Day.

According to PopEater, Bieber was peacefully shopping at the Fairview Mall in Kitchener, Ontario, on December 26 until some fans noticed that the 16-year-old “Baby” singer was inside the establishment. The Biebs’ peaceful shopping soon came to an end as a swarm of young female fans started flocking to a Sunglass Hut shop where the singer was shopping. The fans were reportedly pushing each other against the glass panels of the store to see Bieber, forcing the establishment’s manager to seek police’s help to control the crowd and prevent any untoward incident.

When police arrived, Bieber was rushed out of the mall to prevent people from getting hurt. The incident came several days after Bieber played Santa by giving away toys to sick kids at the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. Bieber teamed up with radio station Q100 to collect toys from fans for the children while he was in Georgia for a concert tour just before Christmas.
