Florida Mom Arrested After Allegedly Having Brown Grass and a Dirty Mailbox, Violating HOA Rules: I Was Treated 'Like a Criminal'
"To be taken to jail and to be treated like that for brown grass at my own home ... that's horrible," Irena Green saidNEED TO KNOW A Florida woman was arrested after allegedly violating the guidelines of her local homeowner's association (HOA) It was alleged in a lawsuit that Irena Green had "browning grass" on her lawn, a dirty mailbox and a commercial van, among other minor violations "To be taken to jail and to be treated like that for brown grass at my own home ... that's horrible," the homeowner saidA Florida woman is speaking out after she was arrested for allegedly violating the guidelines of her local homeowner's association (HOA). Irena Green was jailed on May 23 after The Trowbridge Company Inc. alleged in a lawsuit that the homeowner had violated community appearance rules, ABC Action News reported. The HOA management company, based in Hillsborough County, claimed that Green had 'browning grass' on her lawn, a dirty mailbox and a commercial van, among other minor violations, which they said they ordered the woman to correct. 'The grass has started turning brown. So then they started sending notes,' Green told ABC Action News. 'And it went from the grass being brown to there's a dent in my garage.' After the lawsuit was filed, Green said a judge gave her 30 days to tidy up her lawn and to correct the violations, or she would be jailed. 'I sold my van to comply. My mailbox was cleaned to comply. I bought seeds and watered my grass to comply," she told ABC Action News. Despite her attempts at resolving the issue, Green was later arrested after missing a next court date in August 2024, the outlet reported. 'I was supposed to receive documentation. Nothing was sent to my home. And I reached out to the courthouse several times to try to find out my court date," she said. Want to keep up with the latest crime coverage?

On May 23, while picking up her 15-year-old daughter from cheerleading practice, Green was pulled over and arrested, according to ABC Action News. 'There was no bond. So I couldn't even go home to my family,' she told the outlet. 'I sat in there for seven days in the jailhouse like a criminal.' According to jail records seen by PEOPLE, Green faced two charges: contempt of court and failure to comply with court's order to show cause. Green was released from jail after her family presented evidence that she had cleaned up her yard to a different judge than the one who signed the arrest warrant, per ABC Action News. 'It makes me feel horrible. I work hard to buy this home for me and my kids in a better neighborhood and environment, and to be taken to jail and to be treated like that for brown grass at my own home ... that's horrible,' she said. The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office and The Trowbridge Company Inc. did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment on Saturday, Aug. 2. Read the original article on People

Trump gushes over Karoline Leavitt: ‘It's that face, it's that brain, it's those lips, the way they move!'
Donald Trump offered high, if not slightly uncomfortable, praise for his White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, gushing over 'that face' and 'those lips.' The president gave the unorthodox compliments during a Friday interview with Newsmax in response to Leavitt's claim that he should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his alleged success since returning to office. 'She's become a star. It's that face. It's that brain. It's those lips, the way they move. They move like she's a machine gun,' Trump said. 'She's a great person, actually. But she's – I don't think anybody has ever had a better press secretary than Karoline. She's been amazing.' The 27-year-old is Trump's fifth press secretary overall, though remains the only one from his second term so far. At a White House Press briefing Thursday, Leavitt praised Trump in a similarly effusive fashion. 'President Trump has brokered, on average, about one peace deal or ceasefire per month during his six months in office,' she claimed. 'It's well past time that President Trump was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.' Social media was quick to react to the president's comments during his Newsmax sit-down, with some accusing him of being 'creepy.' 'This definitely sounds like something Jeffrey Epstein's best friend would say,' one user wrote, referring to the ongoing furor surrounding the president and his connection to the deceased pedophile financier. Trump has denied any wrongdoing and said that he and Epstein had cut ties many years before allegations of sex-trafficking were made against the financier. 'Will ANYONE in the MSM ask him or the White House about this incredibly bizarre, creepy, cringey comment? Of course not,' wrote one user. 'It's amazing how his 'super Christian-y' base just love that he's such a creepy old pervert,' added another. A third wrote: 'If any man said this on the job about a fellow employee, they'd be fired instantly, and the company sued.'

Inside Ghislaine Maxwell's New Texas Minimum-Security Prison
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Ghislaine Maxwell, the 62-year-old British socialite convicted of trafficking underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein, was moved to Federal Prison Camp Bryan, a minimum-security facility in Texas, earlier this week. Newsweek contacted Maxwell's attorney for comment via email on Saturday outside of regular office hours. Why It Matters President Donald Trump has been under intense pressure over the Epstein case since July 6 when the Department of Justice and FBI released a joint statement asserting he had "no incriminating 'client list'" and died by suicide. Conspiracy theorists, including a section of Trump's Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement, have long maintained that Epstein was murdered to cover up the involvement of prominent figures in his abuse. The Wall Street Journal later reported Trump had been told his name appeared "multiple times" in the so-called Epstein files by Attorney General Pam Bondi, which the White House dismissed as "fake news." Trump also said he would be "allowed" to pardon Maxwell, though he added that "it's something I have not through about" as the issue continues to cause a rift between the president and some of his supporters. What To Know In 2022, Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison after being found guilty of child sex trafficking, though she continues to maintain her innocence. Prosecutors said the offenses were carried out in cooperation with Epstein, the New York financier and convicted sex offender who committed suicide in a New York federal jail in 2019. Maxwell initially served her sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution in Florida, a low-security prison, but, this week, the Bureau of Prisons told Newsweek that she has been transferred to Bryan. This was confirmed by David Oscar Markus, Maxwell's attorney, though he declined to comment further. In total, 635 inmates are held at Federal Prison Camp Bryan, the vast majority of which are women convicted of nonviolent offenses, according to the facility's official website. Other detainees include Elizabeth Holmes, the billionaire founder of Theranos, who was convicted of fraud; and former Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jen Shah. Overall, the site covers 37 acres, with inmates housed in dormitories. A prison handbook for the Bryan prison, seen by the BBC, indicates Maxwell will be required to wear khaki-colored shirts and pants and get up at 6 a.m. each day.

Brandon Bell/GETTY Prisoners are primarily housed in two person cells in dormitory-style facilities, according to Pink Lady Prison Consultants, an advocacy group led by former prisoners. All prisoners are expected to work, earning between 12 cents and $1.15 per hour. A range of educational programs are also available, including classes on business skills and foreign languages. The handbook says inmates can also play sports, attend religious services and access televisions. Visitors are allowed during the weekend and holidays, though with limited physical contact. Prisoners can be sanctioned if they break a number of rules, including not keeping their cells clean; leaving an area during one of the five-a-day roll calls; and sleeping past the designated wake-up time. For each meal, prisoners are allotted one hour, with the menu compiled by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, including macaroni, tacos, hotdogs and hamburgers. British newspaper The Daily Telegraph reported that facilities available at the Bryan prison include a gym, yoga classes and a 'puppy program,' which involves prisoners training service dogs in collaboration with Canine Companions. What People Are Saying In a statement released on Friday the Bureau of Prisons said: "We can confirm Ghislaine Maxwell is in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons at the Federal Prison Camp (FPC) Bryan in Bryan, Texas." The family of Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein's victims who died by suicide earlier this year, expressed their "horror and disgust" at the move, which they said was made "without any notification to Maxwell's victims." The family added: "This is the justice system failing victims right before our eyes. The American public should be outraged by the special treatment afforded to a pedophile and a criminally charged child sex offender." Speaking to The Daily Telegraph Julie Howell, a Bryan prisoner, said the facility is "nothing like you see on TV or in the movies because it's a camp, which only houses nonviolent offenders." Maxwell's move came after she was interviewed by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on July 25 about Epstein's activities and who else was involved. What Happens Next Trump is likely to continue facing pressure from some of his supporters to release more information about the Epstein case. Maxwell could be offered a pardon or reduced sentence in exchange for giving more details about Epstein's associates, but such a move would almost certainly be highly controversial.
