10B ST. PETERSBURG TIMES THURSDAY, JUNE 5, 1986 sunrise DIGEST But does she tear up her own carbons? Next time American Express looks for someone to do one of those "Do you know me?" commercials, we have a candidate: Gayle R. Shamoo of Hutchinson Island near Fort Pierce on Florida's East Coast. Ms. Shamoo, identified as an accountant at a travel agency, charges lots of ocean cruises and vacation flights to her card.

But Ms. Shamoo is unique among cardholders in another respect: She is really Shamoo, the pet cat of a family arrested for credit card fraud. Gloria Morelli, 50; her son John, 18, and her daughter Robin Malik, 25, were arrested Monday for running up $80,000 on phony credit cards Including one issued to Gayle R. Shamoo. Officials could not explain how the cat was able to pass a credit check.

Parents plead not guilty in son's murder A Pinellas County couple accused of murder in the death of their 13-month-old son pleaded not guilty to the charges Wednesday in Pima County Superior Court in Tucson, a county 4 prosecutor said.

Their son Shane Richmond died April 28, one day after he was found limp in his bed at the Tucson apartment that Ms. Richmond and Davis shared. A pretrial conference was set for July 30, said Deputy County Attorney Sandra Hansen.

9-year-old held in drowning of boy, 3 A 9-year-old Kissimmee boy is being held by police for pushing a 3-year-old playmate into a motel swimming pool and leaving when the child failed to surface, police said Wednesday. The 3-year-old's body was found at about 6:30 p.m. Saturday in a motel pool two miles from his mother's apartment. His mother said she last saw the boy about 11 a.m. that day.

Osceola County Assistant State Attorney Jeff Miller said he has not yet decided whether to file official charges against the boy or whether the boy should be tried as an adult. Police said the 9-year-old confessed to pushing the child into the pool, watching as he sank to the bottom and then going home. The boy has not said why he pushed the younger child or why he didn't get help, police said.
