Jon Dressler, the Vocational Rehabilitation counselor in the Bay State (Massachusetts) also done the moonlighting job as a caretaker for the Work, Independence and Community agency commonly known as the WIC.
The MetroWest Daily News via Norman Miller reported that Dressler had been seen leaving the three vulnerable deaf individuals in the van without A/C or heat in seperate three incidents.
Dressler was rumored using the cochlear implant (CI) device and use American Sign Language (ASL). He had been unfavorably impressed by the VR deaf clients. That probably led to his employment dismissal from the state Vocational Rehabilitation.
The news of Jon Dressler's arrest had been the heavy news buzz within the Boston Deaf Community so far.
Here is an article from the MetroWest Daily News with more details like Dressler's age, clients' full name and past incidents involved Dressler's irresponsibility for the care of two mentally challenged individuals and one deaf individual with cerebral palsy (CP) -

Jon Dressler will be arraigned tomorrow due to the availability of legal interpreter. Only four to five certificated legal interpreters within statewide in Massachusetts.

Logical Rebuttal From Deaf Canadian Why We Ought to Oppose the AB 2072
This is one of most logical ASL vlog posting on the rational discussion why we ought to oppose the AB 2072 bill in the California Assembly (legislature body). Skyxavier make all good points about the so-called choices/options for deaf child's educational opportunity. We need more people like Skyxavier whose is much willing to explore the issue facing all of us, deaf people beyond "black and white" or own personal bias -

Audistic Employee Left Three Deaf Mentally Challenged Guys in "Cooked Van"
How unbelievable of one employee left three deaf mentally-challenged guys in the cooked van in the mid-80s temp while the guy chose to mow the lawn -
Yes, I feel justified to use "audistic" which the employee would not do such things to hearing clients that way.

Well-Known Deaf Personality Get Married Tommorow (Sat)!
The well-known deaf personality will get married tomorrow Saturday afternoon which will be his fourth marriage. The personality use the cochlear implant as his crutches to assist himself getting around in life. *scoffs*
Not fully sure if Mike McConnell of "Kooknut Pundit" get the wedding invitation from the so-called deaf personality. Very inconsiderate of this very same deaf personality for not sending me his wedding invitation.
http://gawker.com/5554947/help-us-congratulate-rush-limbaugh-on-his-wedding-day?skyline=true&s=i (Enclosed photos of his Palm Beach estate, too)
More details with attached link below about Rush Limbaugh's personal life whom he married in the past. Much ironic for Rush Limbaugh rally for the Republican Party since the party is well-known for their family values. Why Rush get married for the fourth time. *rolling eyes in disbelief*
From what mentioned in the Wiki Enclopyedia -
Personal life -
Limbaugh was first married on September 24, 1977, to Roxy Maxine
McNeely, a sales secretary at radio station WHB in Kansas City, Missouri.
They were married at the Centenary United Methodist Church in Cape Girardeau,
Missouri. In March 1980, McNeely filed for divorce, citing "incompatibility." They were
formally divorced on July 10, 1980.[1]
In 1983, Limbaugh married Michelle Sixta, a college student and usherette at the Kansas City Royals Stadium Club. They were divorced in 1990, and she remarried the
following year.[1]
On May 27, 1994, Limbaugh married Marta Fitzgerald, a 35-year-old aerobics
instructor whom he met on the online service CompuServe in 1990.[104] They were
married at the house of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who officiated.
[105] They were separated on June 11, 2004.[106] Limbaugh announced on the air, "Marta
has consented to my request for a divorce, and we have mutually agreed to seek an
amicable separation." The divorce was finalized in December 2004.[107]
In September 2004, Limbaugh became romantically involved with then-TV
personality Daryn Kagan, and they broke up in February 2006.[108] He has dated
Kathryn Rogers, a party planner from Florida, since 2007.[109]
Hopefully, Rush Limbaugh and his new bride will donate their wedding presents to the Deafhood Foundation as part of tax-deduction. Rush always is a big believer in private charity.
Isn't he?
Why not Rush practice what he always preach to his feeble-minded listeners? I am still waiting for Rush Limbaugh donate the sale of his New York City (NYC) penthouse to the Deafhood Foundation.

Pretty Inspirational Story About Unscathed Deaf & Blind Boy Survived in Wood Full W/ Bears & Moose!
Could you imagine that the 12 years old deaf and blind boy came unscathed from the wood full with bears and moose? He got wandered from his family house and ended up in the wood where many bears roamed.
See that deaf & blind child COULD MANAGE and SURVIVE ON HIS OWN without any high-tech like cochlear implant or retina surgery. Animals surely respect someone, who is part of the humanity than being a pretender.
How can we imagine if this 12 years old deaf & blind boy equipped with cochlear implant consisted of very limited channels and difficulty to detect the noises from nature itself? He surely will get worsened when bears hear electronic hums and strike anyone not being consistent with nature.
So parents of deaf and blind children NEED to respect the nature itself and not intervene with it in any way. Naturalism is a real beauty than artificalism!

Deaf Guy Appeared on Last Night's Network TV Show
The 25 years old DEAF guy from Glennwood, Illinois - Jarrell Robinson appeared on last night's "So You Can Dance", a reality contestant show for showcasing everyone's dance talent skills.
Many people felt that Robinson was not given any fair chances by the show's judges. Here was the comment from the host of tv show -
Of course, I can't forget to mention the warm fuzzies brought to us by 25-year-old deaf dancer Jarrell Robinson, someone I wish the judges would have given a chance to after seeing his amazingly astute attention to rhythm and timing. (It's not like they haven't supported deaf dancers in seasons past!)
Here is the video enclosure from last night's tv show - http://tv.msn.com/last-night-on-tv/?from=en-us_msnhp&Gt1=28150

Cochlear Implant Devices Are Vulnerable to Artificial Viruses
Parent of deaf babies and kids ought to think TWICE about implanting the cochlear implant device on their own offspring.
More and more medical devices inside the human body from the heart pacemakers to cochlear implants are vulnerable to the artificial viruses like computer virus or electromagnetic attacks.
That happened to one scientist's hand embedded with computer virus - http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/37360942/ns/technology_and_science-security/
We really do not need the computer hackers or someone intentionally compromise our own deaf people to such technological vulnerabilities. Nature always find its way to worm into our humanity, especially technological devices.
Many thanks to Scott Wilson for posting this article on his Facebook's "Wall". :)
