Jose Canseco Threatens Magazine Publisher 'Pay Me $350k Or Else'
Jose Canseco is THREATENING the publisher of a popular lifestyle magazine ... claiming the guy owes him $350,000 ... and warns, "People get killed for less."
The man Jose is going after is Kamal Hotchandani -- the publisher and CEO of Haute Media Group ... which publishes Haute Living magazine, a lifestyle mag for rich people.
Canseco tells TMZ Sports the two were involved in a business transaction roughly ten years ago -- in which Kamal allegedly stiffed the ex-MLB star out of $350,000.
We reached out to Kamal and Haute Media several times to get his side of the story -- but haven't heard back.
Meantime, Canseco says he's run out of patience ... and tweeted, "Kamal hotchandani I am coming after you."
"Watch yourself kamal...yes that is a threat..you owe me 350k."
"Your time is up ..you should have contacted me now it's to late."
Canseco says he is NOT threatening violence -- he just wants to smoke Kamal out.
4:25PM PT -- We finally heard back from Kamal's camp -- and he ain't taking this thing lightly.
His attorney Sandy Becher tells us, "We have authorities in various jurisdictions dealing with Canseco's not only defamatory but downright extortionate and otherwise criminal behavior."
Becher says Canseco has been terrorizing Kamal with barrage of phone calls and texts -- and demands Jose cut it out, ASAP.
Becher continues, "Mr. Hotchandani categorically denies his flagrant lies and initially did not want to even dignify Canseco's false and inane accusations with a response, however he was left no other choice given the escalation in Canseco's threats against him and his family and irrational conduct but to seek the guidance of both state and federal authorities and pursue all civil and criminal remedies available at law should this conduct persist."
"Canseco is on notice."

Bobbi Kristina Brown Hospice Nurse Busted as Imposter
One of the nurses charged with treating Bobbi Kristina Brown in her final days was not a nurse at all ... according to cops who've arrested the woman for faking her way into the job.
The Forsyth County Sheriff busted Taiwo Sobamowo for identity theft, forgery, and impersonating a nurse. The Sheriff and police in Duluth, GA believe she used the ID of an actual nurse with a similar name to gain employment as a hospice nurse, and ended up working where Bobbi Kristina was receiving care until her death.
Cops say Sobamowo had recently fled Georgia. She was arrested in North Carolina, and is suspected of previously pulling a similar stunt in the Washington, D.C. area,
FOX5 in Atlanta first reported the arrest. It's unclear if Sobamowo had direct contact with Bobbi Kristina at the hospice.

Michael Lohan, Kate Major Children's Services Take Kids
Michael Lohan and Kate Major had their kids taken away last week ... TMZ has learned.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us, the Florida Dept. of Children and Families (DCF) sent social workers to Kate's apartment in Boca Raton Wednesday after obtaining a video of some sort of extreme argument Michael and Kate were having in front of 2-year-old Landon and 10-month-old Logan.
We're told DCF told Kate they were taking the kids temporarily until a responsible family member could take temporary custody. We're told the kids were put in foster care overnight.
Our sources say Michael's mother flew from Long Island immediately and the kids were taken to Michael's home Thursday under the guardianship of grandma.
We're told Michael and Kate can both see the kids, but only in grandma's presence.
It doesn't sound all that peaceful ... we're told 911 was called to Kate's apartment after Kate claimed Michael was banging on her door.
There's a hearing scheduled Tuesday in family court to go over the video and the plan.
4:09 PM PT -- Michael tells TMZ Kate came over to his house last Wednesday when Michael wasn't there. When he came home with the kids, he thought she had been drinking so he told her to leave and she did. He says the reason DCF took the kids was because Kate wasn't supposed to have the kids without a monitor and they felt that he didn't protect the kids from her. He does not address the video.

Dez Bryant Cops Aware of 'Alleged Illegal Possession' Of Monkey
The Dez Bryant pet monkey saga has reached new heights -- with Dez's personal attorney reaching out to cops in an effort to avoid a criminal investigation.
As we previously reported, animal rights groups went bananas after Dez posted a pic with a domesticated Capuchin monkey which he named Dallas Bryant ... a monkey that appeared to be his new pet.
Now, officials in DeSoto, TX -- where Dez is believed to reside -- tell TMZ Sports they have been made aware of the "alleged illegal possession" of the monkey within city limits.
In fact, the DeSoto PD has issued a statement saying, "The City Attorney was just contacted by Mr. Bryants’ personal attorney who advised the monkey is NOT in the City of DeSoto."
"The DeSoto Police Department is in contact with the City Attorney, the Dallas Cowboys organization, and Mr. Bryants’ personal attorney, regarding this matter. We have also been in contact with PETA and the North America Primate Sanctuary Alliance in an effort to address their concerns."
"It should be noted, that as of this date, the DeSoto Police Department has no evidence that the Capuchin monkey is in the City Of DeSoto."
"Although photos were posted on social media sites, this does not rise to the level of probable cause necessary to secure an administrative search warrant to seize the monkey."

La'el Collins Ex-GF's Murder Case Goes Cold Cops Don't Believe He's Involved
The Baton Rouge PD tells TMZ Sports ... they still do NOT have a suspect in the murder of La'el Collins' ex-girlfriend -- but claim they don't believe the NFL star had anything to do with her death.
Collins' draft stock plummeted back in May when he was questioned in connection with the murder of Brittney Mills ... who cops said dated Collins before she was killed on April 24th. Mills was 8 months pregnant when she was shot and killed in her apartment. A paternity test reportedly ruled Collins out as the father. Collins eventually signed a deal with the Dallas Cowboys.
Collins was never named a suspect -- but did speak with cops as part of the murder investigation
Now, a rep for the BRPD tells us the case has essentially gone cold -- with no official suspects and no promising leads to pursue.
The BRPD says they don't believe Collins was connected with her death in any way -- and say he's no longer a focus of the investigation.
Cops say they are frustrated because the investigation hit a dead end because officers have been unable to unlock Mills' cell phone, which they believe might contain clues to the murder.

Dolly Parton Theme Park Our Ride Didn't Break ... You JUMPED!!
Dolly Parton's amusement park says it's not to blame for a woman allegedly suffering brain damage when she fell out of one of its rides ... because she did it to herself.
TMZ broke the story, Tedi and Derryl Brown sued Dollywood last year ... saying Tedi plummeted from a revolving swing ride. But in new legal docs obtained by TMZ, team Dolly says the accident was fully Tedi's fault because it couldn't have happened any other way.
The park says a person must "intentionally unlatch" the lap bar to get out of a seat on the ride. It also says the ride had not come to a complete stop when Tedi decided to bail, and that's what caused her injuries.
Tedi is suing for $475,000 but Dollywood wants the case tossed.
