A Kentucky woman has been arrested after law enforcement found her 68-year-old mother's dismembered body parts being cooked in a pot.

On Wednesday, Kentucky State Police responded to a report of a dismembered body found by a man working on the property of a Robertson County home, according to a police statement.

'Two units arrived on scene, discovered the deceased body in the backyard. We obtained a search warrant and called in our special response team,' said Kentucky State Police Trooper David Jones, reports WKYT.

After a 12-hour standoff, police arrested 32-year-old Torilena May Fields, who had barricaded herself in her Mount Olivet home.

Although police have not confirmed the identity of the body, several news outlets reported the victim to be her mother, Trudy Fields.

One of the workers discovered drag marks in the grass, leading to Trudy's dismembered body in the backyard. The victim's arms, legs, and head were detached from her body, per police.

He also discovered a pile of hair believed to be hers.

The man informed troopers that he had been at the property the day before and had seen both the victim and Fields.

'On [Oct. 8], [the witness] said Torilena was casting spells on them and being confrontational,' troopers noted in the citation.

Police obtained a search warrant and entered the home after they were unable to contact Torilena.

When she finally came out of hiding, she was covered in blood.

A thorough search of the property revealed a bloodied mattress containing 'multiple body parts and organs.'

The investigators also discovered a pot in the oven that contained what appeared to be cooked human body parts. The pot was still warm to the touch.

Torilena is being charged with obstruction, tampering with evidence and abuse of a corpse. She is currently being held in Bourbon County Detention Center.

Further charges may be filed throughout the investigation.

Torilena does not have a prior criminal record.

Her arraignment is scheduled for Monday afternoon.

High school students across New York plan to participate in a walkout later this month to protest transgender athletes competing in girls' sports.

The statewide demonstration, set for Oct. 24, is being organized by The Coalition to Protect Kids, a group that has strong backing from the Catholic Church and the New York Republican and Conservative parties.

"It's not right for boys to compete against girls in sports. It's a huge disadvantage for girls," said Hannah Pompeo, a 16-year soccer player at Eden High School near Buffalo, who is participating in the "Walk Off for Fairness Day."

Millie McCormack, a student dancer at Somers High School in Westchester County said she and her sister, Beatrix, would also be taking part in the protest.

"I don't think it's right for men to be in our safe spaces. We worked hard for places on our teams," she said.

"Boys have physical advantages we don't have."

The groups supporting the walkout oppose the controversial Proposition 1 measure on the ballot in the Nov. 5 election. Prop 1 — also called the "Equal Rights Amendment" — would enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution.

New York already has among the strongest abortion rights laws in the nation and critics claim the ballot measure is unnecessary and just a ruse to try to boost Democratic turnout in competitive congressional and state legislative races, as well as for the White House.

The proposal also asks voters whether they support or oppose adding language to the constitution stating that people cannot be denied rights based on their "race, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, creed, religion, or s*x, including sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, pregnancy, pregnancy outcomes, reproductive healthcare and autonomy."

Opponents argue adding such expansive language would open the door to allowing athletes who identify as female and are born male to compete against women and girls, which they claim would discriminate against athletes who are born female.

"Girls are being systematically canceled in this state, and 'Walk Off for Fairness Day' will give them a safe opportunity to make their voices heard," said Coalition to Protect Kids-NY spokeswoman Ayesha Kreutz.

"So many of these young women are afraid of speaking out, so they're forced to watch as 50 years of female athletic progress gets washed away by destructive ideologues. Girls are not second class citizens, so why are they being treated that way?"

In April, the state Education Department issued draft guidance that would allow trans boys to compete on girls' sports teams.

It also would allow boys — regardless of their gender identity — to play on girls' teams if the school fails to offer a boys' team in a selected sport.

If Prop 1 passes, these regulations could be protected in the state constitution, the coalition claims.

The guidelines have been put on hold following public outcry, at least until after the election.

The Republican and Conservative parties are urging voters — including parents and their student athletes — to reject what they consider progressive overreach.

"The Prop 1 ballot amendment would roll back the protections guaranteed to women and girls under Title IX of the Education Amendments signed into law by President Nixon over 50 years ago by giving biological males a constitutional right to compete on girls teams, and taking away the scholarships and playing time these young women have worked so hard for," said state Republican Party chairman Ed Cox.

"Sixty-six percent of New Yorkers oppose this radical social-engineering change to our State Constitution, according to the latest New York Times/Siena poll. The New York Republican Party urges young athletes to join the 'Walk Off for Fairness' #GirlCott on Thursday, October 24th."

Chimed in state Conservative Party chairman Gerry Kassar, "It's hard to believe we're even having the conversation that girls sports would be for anyone other than girls.

"We fully support 'Walk Off for Fairness Day' in New York, reminding young people that there is safety in numbers. Girls Sports must remain Girls Sports, and there should be nothing controversial in that statement," Kassar added.

The main group backing Prop 1 accused opponents of running a scare campaign.

"There's no bigger bully than the Coalition to Protect Kids – lying to students and parents to scare them into turning on each other," said Sasha Ahuja, campaign director for New Yorkers for Equal Rights.

"Prop 1 is about protecting abortion permanently and preventing government discrimination, full stop — and they know it. In their desperation to make this amendment about anything else, the Coalition to Protect Kids is doing anything but."

!chuds which one of you did this?

The robots appear to be turning on us, although not in the post-apocalyptic way we've long imagined.

Robot vacuum owners in multiple U.S. cities have reported their cleaning machines have been hacked, with one man reporting that his vacuum starting yelling racial slurs at him. A report from the Australian Broadcast Corporation pins a security flaw in the Chinese-made Ecovacs Deebot X2 on the hacks of the widely distributed machines.

Minnesota lawyer Daniel Swenson told the outlet he was watching TV with his family when he noticed something strange happening with his vacuum.

"It sounded like a broken-up radio signal or something," he told the ABC. "You could hear snippets of maybe a voice."

When he went to check his Ecovacs app, he could see a stranger messing around with its remote control feature and live camera.

He said he quickly reset his password and rebooted the vacuum before returning to the couch with his wife and teen son. That's when the real trouble started, with a voice coming through the robot loud and clear.

"F— n——s!" the voice began shouting repeatedly.

TechCrunch reports that Ecovacs are apparently quite easy to hack and it's been a known issue for quite some time.

An August report from the tech news website said cybersecurity researchers had been analyzing the brand's security flaws and "found a number of issues that can be abused to hack the robots via Bluetooth and surreptitiously switch on microphones and cameras remotely."

"Their security was really, really, really, really bad," researcher Dennis Giese told TechCrunch at the time.

When the outlet reached out to the company for information, an Ecovacs spokesperson said that the company would not fix the flaws found by the researchers, saying that "users can rest assured that they do not need to worry excessively about this."

According to the ABC report, this recent hacking spree, which took place in May, spanned a few days in multiple U.S. cities, although it is not known how many of the vacuums (which retail for close to C$2,000) have been affected.

The outlet reports that an Ecovacs chased a dog around a Los Angeles home and, five days later, another robot began hurling racial slurs at its owner in El Paso, Texas.

In a statement, Ecovacs said it found no evidence that any owner accounts were hacked and no signs of any breach of Ecovacs' systems. However, researchers previously demonstrated how the four-digit PIN protecting the device could be bypassed, as it was only checked by the app rather than by the server or the robot.

Ecovacs issued a patch for this flaw, while ABC sources have said it was insufficient.

Nevertheless, the manufacturer has said that it will issue a security upgrade for the owners of the X2 series of robot vacuum cleaners in November.
