Monsters, Inc. (But Real) -- Babysitter Checking for 'Monster' Finds Man Under the Bed

GREAT BEND, KANSAS – A babysitter's routine bedtime monster check turned into a scene straight out of Monsters, Inc.—except instead of a lovable blue furball, she found a 27-year-old ex-boyfriend with a restraining order.

On March 24 at around 10:30 p.m., Barton County deputies responded to a call about a “disturbance” on Patton Road. The babysitter, whose night had already involved wrangling hyper kids and debating whether cookies count as dinner, was trying to convince one child that there were no monsters under the bed.

Spoiler alert: There was.

When "Checking for Monsters" Becomes a Real Job

“I was just trying to prove there was nothing scary under there,” the babysitter told authorities. “And then BOOM—eye contact with an actual monster. And it didn’t look like Sulley.”

The monster in question? Martin Villalobos Jr., 27, who, it turns out, had once lived in the home but was legally required to stay far, far away.

Boo? More Like RUN!

Witnesses report that after the babysitter’s terrifying discovery, a struggle ensued, a child got knocked over, and Villalobos made a break for it—probably realizing he had chosen the worst possible hiding spot.

Police searched the area that night but couldn’t locate the ex-boyfriend-turned-bed-dweller. However, much like Randall the sneaky lizard in Monsters, Inc., his escape didn’t last long.


The next morning, officers spotted Villalobos in the same area. He attempted to outrun law enforcement on foot, which (as you might guess) did not end well for him.

“We gave him a head start, just to be sporting,” one deputy reportedly joked. “But let’s just say he’s no Mike Wazowski.”

Monsters, Inc. Sequel: Restraining Orders, Inc.?

Villalobos was captured and taken to the Barton County Jail, proving once again that if you’re going to hide under a bed, maybe don’t do it in a house where the residents have 911 on speed dial.

As for the babysitter? She is now considering a career in private investigation—or possibly monster hunting.

The child? Probably sleeping with all the lights on for the foreseeable future.

And parents everywhere? Rethinking the whole “don’t be scared of monsters” bedtime speech.

We Are Temporarily Halting Further Publication....

Do to financial issues and lack of funding we are temporarily halting further publication. After a full year of publication, we have reached a bridge that we are unable to cross at this time. We may periodically publish an article but at this time, full-time publication is no longer feasible. Thank you to all the readers who followed us throughout our journey and we wish you the very best. Hopefully we will see our way through this rough patch and will resume publication in the near future. Thanks again! Robert B.

Please Help Find These Forgotten Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year!

  MY MOST IMPORTANT STORY  Dozens of Forgotten Little Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year! Welcome to the Sunshine State , where the palm trees sway, the alligators lurk, and the legislative process makes Kafka look like a life coach!  Florida House Bill HB21 . Not just a compensation bill but possibly a 20 million dollar "Stay out of Jail Free" card for some folks. This is a bill that does some good—but also trips over its own shoelaces, falls down a staircase, and lands on a historical oversight so big, it might as well have its own zip code! An oversight that overlooks what I consider to be its most vulnerable victims! The Setup: Justice with a Catch HB21 was enacted on July 1, 2024 to compensate victims of abuse from two male juvenile detention facilities located in Florida, Dozier and Okeechobee.  It says, “Hey, survivors of abuse between 1940 and 1975, here’s some compensation for the horrific things you endured!” Sounds good, right?

Florida Rest Stop Rules of the Road: ‘You May Snooze — But Not for Long'

Drivers and travelers: rejoice, recline, and — most importantly — read the fine print.  In Florida you can legally sleep in your car at a rest area , but the state has politely (and bureaucratically) set a curfew on your horizontal ambitions.  Pull up, power nap , pack up — and do it all before the three-hour buzzer sounds. Think of Florida’s rest-area rules as the DMV of naps!  The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and the Florida Administrative Code say these roadside oases exist to fight driver fatigue — and to allow the general public a short, safe snooze.  For non-commercial drivers, the limit is three hours...  Commercial vehicle operators (that’s professional truck drivers) get more mercy: up to ten hours, aligned with federal hours-of-service expectations so truckers can actually finish a legally required rest window without getting ticketed for loafing.  So yes, your buddy the trucker can sleep longer than you — he’s earned it the h...
