WEEKEND UPDATE

A 12-year-old kid got killed trying to lift a 185-pound barbell weight in his garage because he wanted to be a football star. Two Brazilian guys got busted at odradak‘s old motel for kidnapping immigrants. We have to vote for a very right-wing Republican in the special election to keep the nutcase racist co-founder of the Minutemen from being elected, because the Democrat has no chance.

A guy who used to be the city manager of Hawthorne, CA was shot dead by the cops in Riverside after he pulled a shotgun on them. Why’d he do that?

“He was a drinker and things that would perhaps not necessarily be significant to you and me were really big deals to him,” said Riverside police Sgt. Leon Phillips. “Someone stole his pressure washer from his driveway and his car was rear-ended. That was the context of his day.”

Okay I’ve had enough. Next post will be more interesting and hopefully less grim!

The part of “psychotic First Lady” is to be played by Piper Laurie

Possible explanations for this photo include:

  1. David Icke is right. Both the English Royal Family and the U.S. leadership are actually evil space lizards, or “reptoids”. In this shot Laura Bush has just seen Icke across the room and is uncontrollably morphing into her true reptilian self.
  2. Prince Charles, on a desperate Bond-like mission to save the world from the Bush administration, has his Walther PPK in the small of the First Lady’s back as he tries to force the President to resign. This is a doomed effort because the President doesn’t give a shit about his wife or anyone else.
  3. It has now been proven that if you give Camilla Parker-Bowles an injection of curare directly into her spine she turns into Laura Bush.
  4. Condi Rice is across the room and she and the First Lady are having an “evil face” contest.
  5. Cocaine.
  6. As Mrs. Bush explains to Charles that they’ll be snacking on babies later with Karl Rove, he desperately tries to catch the eye of his assistant to get him the fuck out of there to somewhere he can drink this whole fucking visit out of his head.

Add yours as you please!

internet murder news from all over

So, yeah, they found the body of the 17-year-old girl who got murdered in VA. And they have a person of interest whom she met on the Internets. And they both have LJs and myspaces, and he has a deviantart gallery with lots of creepy-ass pictures of young-looking girls, and her LJ name is “jailbait” backwards, and it’s really fucking depressing.

Whether or not homeboy is a murderer, he’s certainly a disagreeable person. Also a shitty photographer.

In any case she’s dead, he’s in jail, and they’re both clichés. Except of course that she’s entitled to be a cliché at 17 and he has no excuse at 38.

His deviantart gallery (mostly just thumbnails), her myspace, her livejournal at tiabliaj, and his livejournal at skulz67 are still up for now, for morbid curiosity purposes.

From news stories:

“Detectives seized more than 70 other items from Fawley’s home, including a box of bones, a machete and part of a box spring bearing a reddish-brown stain, according to a search warrant.”

“On the morning after Taylor’s disappearance, Fawley, a self-described “prolific Goth web master” who “collects” auto license plates, told police he had just been beaten, robbed and kidnapped by unknown assailants. He said they put a bag over his head, stuffed him into an unknown car, and drove him to an unknown location, where he was left on an unknown dirt road. He was “saved” when an unknown good Samaritan, in his case a Hispanic male, found him along the road and drove him back to Richmond.”

Thanks to hepkitten I am only four degrees from the victim, but oddly I show no connection with the LJ Sixdegrees tool to the accused murderer.

More detailed, probably too detailed blogulations about this are here and here, the latter going on way too much with psychological diagnoses. Also here.

Boy those guys all write too much.

The X-Files meets Reno 911

From Chuck Shepherd’s News of the Weird blog, the usual stolen ambulance with high speed chase, driver dressed in medical outfit, dead deer in the back hooked up to IV. You know.

turnip: This guy is from Jax. You party with him?

Davidson County, NC — We have new and bizarre details about the man accused of stealing a Davidson county ambulance and strapping a week-old deer carcass to the gurney. Investigators say Leon Hollimon stole the ambulance and led police on a three-county chase this past weekend. When they caught him, he was wearing a stethoscope, pager and had two latex gloves in his back pocket. The deer was attached to an IV. Investigators say they’re not sure where Hollimon is from, but he has a large number of arrests in the Jacksonville, Florida area and may be from there. They say they don’t yet know how he ended up in Lexington.

He’s currently having a mental evaluation at a state hospital in Butner.

Waterclosetgate Hearings

ignatz: Mr. President, at the time of the memorandum you did not specify #1 or #2. Was there additional communication between you and the Secretary of State on this distinction?
ignatz: Please let the record show that the President slowly lifted both hands.
maciej: Republicans angrily denounces insinuations that the President may have intended to go do #3
ignatz: Why do you hate defecation?
maciej: 2 4 6 8… Condi can I micturate?
ignatz: Mr. President, you already have. It’s time to go to the “undisclosed location” again.
