Law and Disorder – 3/29/08
It seems there is never an end to the wacky reports from the law and disorder front.
Anyhow, here’s today’s collection:
William M. Bowen, 27, awoke in Muncie, Indiana about 6:30 a.m. Thursday morning. Nothing too odd about that. But wait, there’s more. He woke up inside a garbage truck that was getting ready to “compact” him. Read it at Drunken Man Awakes Inside Garbage Truck and tell ol’ William he probably ought to get some new drinking buddies…

Art Price Jr., 40, of Bellevue, Ohio, has a unique distinction which no one in their right mind would want. Art has been busted for allegedly having sex with a picnic table, not once, not twice, not thrice but four times. And supposedly there’s a video tape of Art getting familiar with the hole in the table where one is supposed to put their umbrella. Read it at Man Faces Charges for Having Sex With Picnic Table and wonder if a picnic table can actually “consent”…

Meanwhile down Dallas way, it turns out the city can not revoke the license of a strip joint just because there was a 12-year-old, sixth-grade girl dancing there. Turns out though that Demonica Abron, 27, who worked as a stripper in the club, and David Bell, 22, have been charged with felony sexual performance of the child in connection with making the 12-year-old work at the club. Read it at Dallas Can’t Close Strip Club Where Girl, 12, Danced and figure that Demonica was appropriately named and David may get his “bell” rung if he ends up in prison…

Speaking of strip joints, the K.C. Lounge a Riverside, Ohio strip joint is where the Reverend Craig Rhodenizer, 46, the pastor of St. John’s Lutheran Church in Lyndonville, N.Y. was finally found. On Wednesday he supposedly went to a local Best Buy. Friday he was found several hundred miles away from home and evidently having a fine time in the strip joint. Reportedly the reverend feels “emotionally guilty”, whatever that is. Read it at Missing N.Y. cleric found at strip club and figure the reverend has some “explaining” to do back home…

And least one think that only criminals and wayward preachers are running amok, the cops are not doing much better themselves as the following will show:
The Transportation Security Administration said Friday it will change the way its officers search passengers with body piercings after a Texas woman complained she was forced to remove a nipple ring with pliers in order to board an airplane. Ouch!!! Read it at TSA: We’ll Change Rules About Nipple Rings and realize the skies are not as friendly as we once thought…

Police in La Crosse, Wisconsin are not doing very well at fingering women properly, at least according to this report titled oddly enough, Police Sorry For Fingering Wrong Person. And if that is not bad enough they showed a video of it for three days. For shame, for shame…

Speaking of fingering the wrong person the cops in La Crosse only screwed up once. Their fellow officers in Kronenwetter, Wisconsin fingered a whole lot more and got it a lot more wrong, about 90 times more wrong. This by swooping down on a teen “keg party”, running nearly 90 breath tests and even searching locked rooms for hiding teens and for what? A root beer party. Read it at Cops Bust High School Root Beer Kegger and figure that one of these days they are going to have to start giving IQ tests to police academy applicants…

Philly narc cops Scott Schweizer and Eric Dial managed to get themselves fingered, demoted and suspended. ‘Da boyz’ got into trouble over so called “racist stickers” one of which depicted a man, half as an officer in uniform and half as a Klansman, with the words “Blue By Day — White By Night.” The other was far less original, it apparently just said “White Power”. Both were suspended for 20 days and banished to patrol duty where they started as rookies. Read it at 2 Philadelphia Cops Suspended Over Racist Stickers and realize they don’t do IQ testing at the Philly police academy either…

From the school discipline front comes word that Donna Hudepohl, a school resource officer at Moss Elemenary School in Orange County, Florida, may have suffered a broken nose when an 11-year-old punched her. At least Hudepohl had the IQ to know what to do when an 11-year-old is beating your ass, she tasered the kid. Read it at Student Tasered at School and know that kid won’t be near as eager to punch out Hudepohl in the future…

And from the legislative front comes word that Arkansas Legislators are determined to get it right, eventually. Last year when they tried to clarify Arkansas marriage law they mistakenly allowed anyone, even toddlers, to marry in Arkansas with parental consent. One can only wonder what they will allow this year. Read it at Arkansas Lawmakers to Repeal Child Marriage Provision and understand we are talking child brides for real here…
