What kind of animal walks into a Walmart and pees all over the steaks in the freezer?
This man:
Richard Jenkins (21) walked into a Walmart in Canton, Michigan and peed all over the steaks in the freezer. He ruined $600 worth of meat and has been charged with felony vandalism.
A 29 year old Colorado man stabbed himself because he didn’t want to go to work at Blockbuster. I am actually surprised this isn’t more common.

Please visit the new site: Republicans for Rape
This site calls out these disgraceful Republican Senators that sided with Dick Cheney’s Halliburton and voted against Senator Franken’s Anti-Rape amendment. The amendment stems from a case that took place in 2005. An employee of Halliburton in Iraq was gang raped by her coworkers and locked in a container when she tried to report the crime. When she finally got back to the US, Halliburton claimed it was in her contract that she couldn’t press charges and had to deal with the matter through arbitration.

The BBC is reporting that the Australian police are cracking down on drinking at auto-racing events. They are instituting a policy that promotes restraint by limiting the amount of beer one can drink to 24 cans.

A woman employed by the US Postal Service was arrested today on Federal charges of theft. Her crime: stealing 3000 Netflix DVDs from the mail at the center where she works. The value of the DVDs is over $36,000. There has been no word whether she planned to sell them or build a library.
I have felt for a while that it was only a matter of time that something like this happened. I can’t imagine how many regular subscribers do this, since Netflix has amazing customer service and usually disregards doubt.

In a follow up post to a story from a month ago, it is being reported that Joseph Carnivale who created the infamous barrel monster has been sentenced to 50 hours community service. The Highway Department has stated that they wished not to press charges and even wanted to display the work. Good for him, while I think he shouldn’t even get 50 hours community service, I am happy he didn’t receive a more severe penalty.

The Gothamist is reporting that 25 year old Saucy Robin Katz, a Chase banking advisor, took $110,000 out of a millionaire’s account and used the money for partying and shopping. She has been arrested and is currently at Rikers Island. Hope she had a blast!
UPDATE: It is now being reported that she also put a down payment on a house.

and for our kick-ass moment in the news this week, I give you Joseph Carnevale:
This man is a student at North Carolina State. As reported by the Smoking Gun, he is accused of stealing highway cones and creating a ‘monster’; then placing it on the side of the road. The North Carolina Police are charging him with larceny and he will be in court on July 21st. I hope he gets off easy, because I think this is pretty cool.
Here is is creation:
The guy just wanted to help direct traffic. The kid probably even saved lives. I know I certainly would not tempt fate and fuck with that thing. Keeping left is what I would do.
