EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Clarence Taylor III found guilty of sex abuse at Maryland School for the Deaf.
FREDERICK, MD -- A Howard County Circuit Court jury in the Maryland School for the Deaf sex abuse case handed down a mixed result Wedneday, finding the defendant guilty of two charges of child sexual abuse, not guilty of one count and declaring a mistrial in the four remaining counts.
Clarence Cepheus Taylor III, 38, was found guilty by the 12-member jury, who began deliberations Friday, of groping two girls while working as an aide at the school from 2008 to 2011.
Taylor, who is Deaf, had his bond revoked by Judge William Tucker and is scheduled to be sentenced on the two guilty verdicts on Jan. 31, 2014, with a retrial on the four non-decision counts scheduled for May 21, 2014.
A split verdict is reached by jurors and a mistrial is declared by the judge for some charges in the Howard County sexual abuse trial of a former aide for the Maryland School for the Deaf. Barry Simms files this report on 11 News at Noon.
Earlier in the trial, three counts of solicitation of child pornography were dropped by the State's Attorney's office after the prosecution could not prove the events happened in Howard County.
Those charges accused Taylor of text messaging three of the students and requesting pictures of their breasts, according to the prosecution.
Taylor faces a maximum of 50 years in prison 25 years for each guilty count. According to prosecutor and Assistant State's Attorney Lisa Broten, the state's recommendations for such convictions usually fall between seven and 13 years per count.
As Taylor was handcuffed after his bond was revoked, his wife, who is on leave from her employment at the school, left the courtroom fighthing tears.
A split verdict was reached in the sexual abuse trial of a former aide for the Maryland School for the Deaf, prompting the Howard County judge to call a mistrial for some charges.

The video goes viral by the Rainforest Action Network (RAN), and is intended to raise awareness of how the palm oil industry is destroying orangutans' natural habitats and driving the species to extinction.
The video shows a 12-year-old Deaf girl named Lena chitchatting with an orangutan named Strawberry via Skype. One thing leads to another, and Strawberry learns that Lena likes to eat peanut butter.
“Your food is destroying my home,” the orangutan tells the girl at this point.
Apparently, most of the palm oil used to make snacks and treats marketed in the US comes from plantations that used to be rainforests, but that have been converted into agricultural lands in order to support this industry.

It appears the same man has visited Gallaudet, the D.C. school for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing in Northeast Washington, D.C.
“Last week, a man carrying the same letter was seen on the Gallaudet University campus and was subsequently asked to leave and prohibited from returning,” said Theodore Baran, Director of Gallaudet University Department of Public Safety, in a released statement.
The man has no known connection to the university, he said.
The man, who is from Grand Rapids, Mich., has claimed to be Deaf and used index cards to communicate with town police and residents in University Park. One witness described him as “a gentlemen with a terrible message.” His identity has not been released because he has not been charged with a crime. ...

First at all, YouTube offers display a wide variety of user-generated video content, including TV clips, as well as amateur content such as video blogging, freedom of expression, short original videos, and educational videos that use YouTube for the events. Most of the content on YouTube has been uploaded by individuals, although media web-site including DeafNewspaper.
Second, the things Deaf individuals consistently find disgusting and sparked a chorus of outrage after Davis asks the followers to flag the video to censorship on them were found on facebook page among the false-filled messages that are used as insinuations or allegations individuals - a given concerns, critical, disagree, disapprove or speech manner in the ASL-signing regarding Ken Davis' comments/videos.
Ken Davis asks the followers as they recognize the influence opportunities in a situation and take advantage to convince by flagging to censorship the videos as you can see some of the vloggers find concerns and responses has reacted to a video showing, Deafnewspaper: Reply to Ken Davis,... Shame on you, Ken Davis!,... Once again, shame on you, Ken Davis!,... Liar, Liar, your pants on FIRE, Ken Davis

"Hello Friends and Fans,
Donna Fine's video at youtube is "Hateful and Abusive Content" about me. I'm in "Hateful and Abusive Content" by Youtube's Policy from Donna Fine. Some of you already flagged it at her youtube. I checked it at youtube and her video is still there. I puzzled that our flagged are not working. Hmm.
I know that Youtube is concerning on "Hateful and Abusive Content"
And another statement:
"Other person who talked a bad thing about Ken Davis to all public. If you disgree with her, please report it to YouTube or Flag it."
Therefore, the video responses to Davis that assumedly in "hateful and abusive content" which the video showed none of the hateful and abusive after all, perhaps the right to express any opinion in public without censorship, restraint or otherwise. Davis is unprofessionalism by asking the followers to flagging the YouTube users, eventually force to remove the videos - very totally completely wrong messages into publicly.
Davis asks the followers to helps to cover the sitautions of which the reasons may be avoiding embarrassment and humility has addresses into the public his wrongdoing messages and kind of makes it that much more illustrative.
It is clear that DeafNewspaper's facebook path has not been an easy one. It has been difficult in terms of integration, and for professional affirmation on the internet, and for even the possibility to study about the improper messages on the the internet.

Cochlear Implant industry - 4000 devices affected around the world.
Signed Version: On the surface, cochlear implants sound like a promising medical solution to the problems surrounding hearing loss or total deafness. A cochlear implant uses existing nerves and electronic signals to override damaged auditory nerves, thus restoring a sense of hearing to the recipient.
However, this technology has also caused serious divisions within the Deaf community concerning the hearing society's position on deafness in general. Cochlear implants are considered disrespectful and insulting, since the medical community views deafness as a handicap which must be treated or corrected.
