Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity

It is a three-way tie. There was the priest broom brawl in Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity; the Italian seismologists who were charged with manslaughter after the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake; and the two last speakers of Ayapaneco, who don't like each other.

Stephen Anderson, former detective, testifies that NYPD routinely planted drugs on people to meet arrest quotas (eight officers arrested).

That charge should be brought to Ann Coulter, who confuses radon—or who really knows what—with {uranium, cesium, plutonium, polonium, strontium, radioactive iodine, sulphur, tellurium, helium or other fukushima cocktails}.
