• Can This Guy Catch A Break?

  In December 2007, New York Yankees World Series hero Jim Leyritz allegedly got sloshed at his 44th birthday party, ran a red light in Fort Lauderdale, then plowed into the Mitsubishi Montero of 30-year-old Freida Ann Veitch, killing the mother of two. In December 2008 he's looking for a job as a baseball broadcaster. That's assuming, of course, that Leyritz is right in saying he'll be "exonerated" of vehicular manslaughter charges in a trial scheduled for Jan. 12. -- Thomas Francis

• Dog With $20,000 Wardrobe Keeps Economy Alive

  Gail Posner, a Miami resident, is said to have inherited $100 million from her late father's estate. She was a generous supporter of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. But she may be best-known as mom to a famous chihuahua, Conchita. The posh pup likes to model her $20,000 wardrobe (including a wig) and has walked the red carpet at events alongside celebrities such as Brooke Hogan and Alonzo Mourning. When we heard that Posner was about to buy Conchita her very own Range Rover (hope for th

• Hey You, Ferrari Driver Rocking Ferrari Cap

  To the guy driving the Ferrari with the Ferrari hat, I do understand your dilemma: You have this pussy magnet of a car -- but how to inform "the poon" of this after you park? Still, that's no excuse for driving around in such redundant garb. Do you put on a raisin bran shirt before you pour yourself a bowl of cereal? A Hoover hat before you vacuum? Tool. Lots of good the hat-car combo will do you when you're on trial for mortgage fraud. And the world knows you're bald.

• Gay Philanthropist-Turned-Crook Sells Fort Lauderdale Castle But Can't Beat Debts

  If you're grading the souls of fraudsters on a curve, Steven Green scores as the most sympathetic in a class full of flunkers. Green gave generously to charities for the developmentally disabled, as well as to those that assisted gay men with AIDS or struggling with addiction. He even made a documentary about the evils of predatory lenders. In Fort Lauderdale, Green kept a tidy $2.56 million home, sharing his legendary art collection and fleet of vintage cars with admirers.Flickr user: Todd Krav

• Still No Arrests in Robbery of Canadian Tourists in Boynton Beach

  What's with Boynton Beach suddenly becoming a hot spot for South Florida crime? Early yesterday, a couple of exhausted Canadian tourists trying to drive through the night to South Beach, pulled off on I-95 at Boynton Beach Boulevard, then parked at a closed gas station so they could switch drivers, only to notice a Chevy Impala pull in at the same time. Let's let the Boynton Police news release pick it up from there:The women decided to wait for the car to leave before exiting their car. As they
