boy 'tries to bribe' injured mother

an 11-year-old boy has been accused of trying to bribe his mother after hitting her in the head with a saw.

the child, from fort pierce in florida, reportedly became involved in an argument with his mother after he refused to take his medication. it is claimed that he then cycled to a nearby home and started hitting a tree with a saw before attacking his mother when she caught up with him, causing a "minor laceration".

"when he saw the blood coming from her head he threw down the saw and started to plead with the victim to not call the police," a report released by the local sheriff's office states.

the document adds that the boy then offered to give $5 to his mother if she agreed to keep quiet about the incident.

the child, who insists the attack was accidental, is now facing an aggravated battery charge.

Video:Company Seeks Tax Exemption For Bribes

company seeks tax exemption for bribes

some companies request tax deductions for philanthropy, others for restaurants bills. but one israeli business tried to push the envelope by asking to deduct nearly $860,000 it paid in kickbacks.

a tel aviv district court rejected the petition on feb. 8.

the business, whose name was withheld by the court, asked to deduct the sum for kickbacks that were paid to help spur a business deal. the israeli daily maariv reported that the deal took place in an unidentified african nation. the company alleged the kickback was necessary as a part of the local business custom and therefore should be exempted from the israeli law.

the transaction was carried out in 1999, four years before israel adopted a u.n. anti-corruption convention.

judge magen altuvia ruled that an israeli business must adhere to the values of its home nation even while conducting business abroad. the "state's values don't stop at its borders and the petitioner's request damages the bedrock of israeli law and its legal system," the judge wrote.

the business, however, countered that the business conducted in this particular country did not pose a threat to israeli business ethics at home or in other nations abroad.
