donkey-jailed.jpgA mexican Donkey is spending some time in the pokey for assaulting a man. I guess someone actually felt the donkey should be punished for breaking human laws. I wonder if they read the donkey his rights when he got arrested. Now does the donkey get a lawyer or does he simply represent himself. Can he put up some hay as bail?

Metro actually reported this story where the locals had this to say… “Around here, if someone commits a crime they are jailed,” Gomez said - “no matter who they are.”

The donkey’s owner is Mauro Gutierrez and the donkey inmate will be in his new accommodations in the jail until Mr. Guitierrez pays some medical bills to the donkey’s victim. Seems the donkey bit victim, Mr. Vazquez then kicked another man who came to his rescue.

The police in that region have jailed animals in the past including a bull that stole some corn and a dog that bit someone.

Seems Chiapas is an equal opportunity jailer treating everyone the same no matter what species you may be.

bank-of-ganja.jpgSome people are just too stupid to be criminals - Stupidity the redneck way - Tennessee. A man apparantly took that slogan “to protect and serve” to the extreme as he emptied his pockets in order to pass through a metal detector. He took out his weed and rolling papers from his pockets and placed them into the Sheriff’s bowl. Protect his weed they did, by confiscating it. The man may now have another court date. This may be a good thing since this man really can not afford to lose any more braincells.
Now if you are already going to court, meaning you did something stupid and got caught.. maybe, just maybe you should refrain from taking your dope to court with you, much less, handing the dope to the cop for safe keeping while going to your court appearance for your prior stupidity.

Who needs TV ads when we have printable condoms

recycled-condoms.jpgI guess with the ad printed on a condom, the advertiser gets a real bang for the buck! the instructions go as follows…  “Apply to weapon when on maneuvers.”

Actually, this probably is brilliant because I can’t believe anyone would forget the message nor the way it was delivered… just sick shit.

 “We felt the condom would appeal to the target audience and hopefully encourage them to think about the RAF Regiment in a different way rather than just at face value,”

I see…

LONDON, May 14 (UPI) — The Royal Air Force is using instructions on the many uses of condoms as a tactic to lure young British men to sign up for the RAF Regiment.

A total of 20,000 prophylactics are being mailed in a recruitment drive, The Sun reports. They’re mounted on cards with the instruction “Apply to weapon when on maneuvers.”

So how crazy is this “get rich quick” story and how can anyone even believe they would get away with it? Well, it is crazy and the woman almost got away with it, as ridiculous as it sounds, except for a mistake she made. The point is she got caught not because someone actually investigated, she got caught because she was stupid enough to use someone else’s computer to type up her forgeries and not delete the BS letters when done.

This is some sick shit, no one ever investigated or even tried to contact a doctor to see if the story was in fact real!

Seems a state social worker got very lazy one day and decided to go on an extended sick leave. Now, she really wasn’t sick (well, maybe just sick in the head), so she made up a cancer, forged the papers and collected taxpayer money for doing so.

Sandra Dee Martinez, 40, never was diagnosed with brain cancer and instead faked letters from phony doctors to get paid sick leave, work half-days and land certain duties in the department, according to court documents.

State Social worker accused of faking cancer to steal from state and how did she get caught? her own stupidity. She typed one of her forgeries on someone else’s computer and did not delete it.

Every doctor’s name was made-up and all documents were forged. The woman since then has moved out of state and I gotta wonder if she will be allowed to get away with her cancer scam.

The woman received $21,000 in paid leave after forging letters from doctors, prosecutors allege.

ARLINGTON — When a state social worker announced she had malignant brain tumors, she received $21,000 in paid leave, lots of time off from work, and extra sick days generously donated by co-workers pulling for her in her fight against a terrifying disease.

Turns out the tumors were only a sick ploy to steal from the state Department of Social and Health Services, prosecutors alleged Tuesday.

Sandra Dee Martinez, 40, never was diagnosed with brain cancer and instead faked letters from phony doctors to get paid sick leave, work half-days and land certain duties in the department, according to court documents.

She’s now charged with first-degree theft.

“She was fabricating a tragedy so she wouldn’t have to go to work,” Arlington Police Chief John Gray said. “She preyed on the generosity of her employer and co-workers.”

The former Mountlake Terrace woman worked out of the Smokey Point DSHS office. The Arlington police investigation turned up a scheme that went way beyond faking the sniffles to take a three-day weekend, Gray said.

Martinez was hired by the state as a social worker in October 2006, according to court records. Five months later she allegedly told her employer she had a brain tumor and began using medical leave and continued to get paid.

The crime, penis snatching, the punishment, lynching!And beware of anyone with a gold ring, thats a sure sign of a crazed snatcher. This is some twisted shit for sure, Seems centuries later people are still getting arrested for witchcraft. And yes, the suspects were also extorting money in that old Chicago gangland method called “protection”.
KINSHASA (Reuters) - Police in Congo have arrested 13 suspected sorcerers accused of using black magic to steal or shrink men’s penises after a wave of panic and attempted lynchings triggered by the alleged witchcraft.

Reports of so-called penis snatching are not uncommon in West Africa, where belief in traditional religions and witchcraft remains widespread, and where ritual killings to obtain blood or body parts still occur.

Rumors of penis theft began circulating last week in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo’s sprawling capital of some 8 million inhabitants. They quickly dominated radio call-in shows, with listeners advised to beware of fellow passengers in communal taxis wearing gold rings.

Hey, I’ve been insulted by much harsher words than “goon”, can I get paid also?

Just when you think you’ve heard of some ridiculous shit to sue over… something like this comes along.  I realize China censors their media but are U.S commentators also supposed to keep their opinions about junky Chinese products hush hush? I mean, my 2 day old “made in China” flip flops have already bit the dust after only 1 poolside stroll.

HONG KONG (Reuters) - A Chinese primary school teacher and a beautician have filed a suit against CNN in New York over remarks they say insulted the Chinese people and are seeking $1.3 billion in compensation — $1 per person in China, a Hong Kong newspaper reported.

The case against the Atlanta-based cable channel, its parent company Turner Broadcasting and Jack Cafferty, the offending commentator, comes after 14 lawyers launched a similar suit in Beijing alleging that Cafferty’s remarks earlier this month violated the dignity and reputation of the Chinese people.

Cafferty said the United States imported Chinese-made “junk with the lead paint on them and the poisoned pet food” and added: “They’re basically the same bunch of goons and thugs they’ve been for the last 50 years”.

Seems that Japan takes its beef ban a bit way to seriously these days, even when the beef is preserved in formaldehyde for many years and encased in plastic as art. Yep, this is that fine art piece that anyone would want as part of the collection called pickled cow, this is larger than one of his earlier pieces that was a pickled fish and seems to be up in a bar somewhere in the UK.

Yep, pickled cow may now be in a real pickle and need to be re-pickled to boot.

BRISBANE, Australia (AP) — An Australian politician on Wednesday proposed designating a special day for residents to hunt and kill what he called one of the world’s most disgusting creatures: the poisonous cane toad.

australia-toad-whacking-day.jpgThe Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has said it backs the plan by Queensland state lawmaker Shane Knuth to launch “Toad Day Out,” but only if the creatures are killed in a humane way, such as euthanizing them in a freezer.

“Obviously we’re not idiots. We understand a lot people will be highly reluctant to fill their fridges and freezers with dying cane toads, but at the moment that is the only humane way that we can recommend,” said Michael Beatty, the society’s spokesman.

HAVANA - Cuban shoppers are snapping up DVD players, motorbikes and electric rice cookers that are going on sale to the general public for the first time.

Lines stretch out the doors of major government department stores as Cubans gaze at the new gadgets on display.

The goods that went on sale Tuesday previously were available only to foreigners. But the government of new President Raul Castro has lifted that ban.

There was no sign yet of two highly anticipated items: computers and microwaves, though salespeople said computers would soon hit the shelves.

The Vampire bomber, named Lestat, seems to have died.

Lestat, the bomber was in jail for bombing a cash machine, however, I am not sure what the problem was since Lestat was apparently was issued a license to have bombs in Bolivia and even created some promo materials for his bombing work. I guess Bolivia is not big on background checks for licensing, had they checked, they may have found that the guy was a nut and believed himself to be immortal.

Prison officials even had to admit the vampire bomber may have had mental issues after he was caught with a can of gasoline in his cell to use in burning down the jail.

Vampire’ Bomber From Calif. Dies In Bolivian Jail.

LA PAZ (AP) ? A convicted hotel bomber from California who modeled himself on a fictional vampire has died after becoming ill in prison, officials said Tuesday.

Twenty-six-year-old Tristan Jay Amero was serving a 30-year sentence for bombing two low-rent hotels in the Bolivian capital of La Paz in 2006. Two Bolivians died in one of the attacks.
