Hey, I like crunchy foods, probably more than most folks. But I absolutely draw the line at glass. Yes, glass. Ms. Lynette Margaret Quessy thought she would get her husband to deal with his drinking problem by lacing his food with glass! As reported by news.com.au:

Her husband first noticed glass in a roll when he bit into it and chipped a filling on his tooth.

Er, uh, sorry.

A week later he noticed what looked like rock salt on some biscuits.

… he realised it was glass and again found glass in his sandwich the next day.

Wife makes lunch. Glass in lunch. What to do.

He started keeping his lunches in a freezer in his garage and eventually went to the police after discovering a container of crushed glass in the pantry.

AFT, dude. Did she own up to it? Yup.

[Ms. Quessy] admitted putting fragments of a smashed light globe in her husband’s packed lunch five or six times in October and November last year.

Ouchee!

Swift%20Justice%20instant%20trial%20quick%20fast.jpg Of course, if you don’t mind having your head handed to you … As reported in The South Asian Post:

A woman chopped the head off a man who allegedly tried to attack her and then paraded the head through a market in northern India, police said. Police arrested the woman late on Thursday after receiving calls from frightened witnesses, said police officer Ram Bharose. The woman, 35, told police she had gone to a nearby forest to cut grass for fodder for her cattle when a man attacked her from behind. ”In a bid to save her dignity she beheaded him with a sickle,” Bharose said, adding that the woman had bite marks on her neck and cheek.

Safe to say she’ll never be attacked again …

bad%20driver%20worst%20car%20wreck%20accident.jpg

If there is a worse driver out there, I’d be shocked. As reported in The Hamilton Spectator, here are some highlights of Toronto resident Gloria O’Neill’s driving history:

Her driver’s licence was suspended as far back as 1978, when she was just 21. In 1984, it was suspended again.

Still forbidden to drive, she got a new licence under a different name.

When that, too, was suspended, she got a third.

In 1995, according to parole documents, O’Neill rolled her car on Highway 401, breaking her back in two places. She was charged in March of that year with driving while under suspension and got 15 days in jail.

Five years ago, after she [ran a red light, and] dragged a pedestrian to his death in a crosswalk, a court banned her from driving for 10 years. [At the time of this hit-and-run, she was driving with TWO suspended licenses, under different names.](She was also convicted of perjury for lying at her bail hearing about her criminal record and multiple licence suspensions.) She only served 9 months for killing this man!

Before you get to angry (#!@*&%!), consider this:

Recently she declined repeated interview requests, saying she has consulted psychiatrists to cope with the trauma of the fatal crash.

“I’m trying to get over it,” O’Neill said when reached by phone. “I have a life and I’m trying to get on with it. I just want to live my life. “

Really? Trying to get over it? By ….

Not longer after that conversation, with five years left on her driving ban, O’Neill got behind the wheel of a Lincoln Town Car registered to her husband, another suspended driver.

On Aug. 28, two Record journalists watched as she drove the shiny red car out of her Toronto parking garage and disappeared down the street.

All told,

[Ms. O’Neill] has been involved in at least 15 collisions, often in rented or borrowed cars.

LOCK HER UP! Oh, and don’t forget about her criminal history, unrelated to driving.

In 1979, under the last name Cloutier, she was sentenced to five years in prison for the beating and robbery of a 62-year-old man while she ran a Toronto brothel. According to media accounts of the trial, while the victim was being entertained by a 16-year-old prostitute, O’Neill and another man robbed him of jewelry, a camera and cash, before beating him so badly he was blinded in one eye.

A strange crime as reported in The Hartford Advocate:

It’s always surprising to see what lengths people will go to get away with petty crimes, even if it’s for something as silly as ganking baby food. According to the Courant, 22-year-old Bristol resident Paul Bergeron allegedly tried lifting some of the instant baby formula Enfamil from a Shaw’s supermarket on Sept. 26 in West Hartford. Police caught on in the parking lot when Bergeron was seen holding the formula in plain sight and yelling “Go, go, go!” to his getaway driver. They reportedly slammed into an unmarked cop car and Bergeron allegedly tried to get away on foot. He ended up in a fourth-floor laundry room, where he was allegedly punished by a police dog and hit with a stun gun. He faces robbery and assault charges.

Ouchee!

No, not texting, reading or polishing fingernails. (We actually had a case involving a woman who was eating crabs while driving – I swear.) But this dude, he was injecting himself with heroin while he was driving! Per the Hartford Advocate:

According to police reports, on Oct. 3, 25-year-old Larry Shallow of Windsor was allegedly seen banging heroin while driving on I-291, giving a whole new meaning to driving under the influence. An onlooker allegedly saw Shallow injecting a hypodermic needle into himself who then passed it to his friend. Police followed the car to a McDonald’s, where they reportedly greeted Shallow. He (allegedly) admitted to throwing the needle out the window on the highway and mixing 12 bags of heroin in a bottle cap. Shallow was charged with possession of heroin, drug paraphernalia and, on top of that, driving with a suspended license.

Wow.

Love%20Test%20Machine%20prove%20love%20proof.jpg Ullricht Walter, a German citizen living in South Africa, had good reason to doubt that his wife loved him. Per The Times:

… Ullricht had discovered e-mail correspondence [“steamy love letters”] between [his wife] Linda and her high-school sweetheart, who even flew out from Germany for a clandestine meeting.

So he wanted her to prove that she loved him. As luck (bad!) would have it, a love test presented itself! In an affidavit, Mr. Walter wrote:

Now, either this lady had a really big bag, or the Victoria’s Secret “PINK” bras are really, really small. Why? Because she stuffed 160 of them into her bag! Here’s the story from The Miami Herald:

There’s a bra bandit on the loose in Southwest Florida. The Lee County Sheriff’s Office is searching for an individual they say stole 160 bras valued at nearly $6,000 on Thursday from a Victoria’s Secret store, the latest in a string of bra burglaries in the area.

Since February, authorities say 452 bras valued at nearly $19,000 have been stolen from two of the chain’s Southwest Florida locations. Six different bra thefts at the stores have been reported during that time.

Investigators say a female customer walked into the store Thursday and immediately went to a four-drawer cabinet with new bras of the PINK brand name. The store manager told deputies the woman waited until employees were busy helping customers and then thrust the bras into a bag and exited the store.

An incredibly threatening … squeegee. Really. Maybe the drugs killed him – maybe not. Here’s the story, from the Orlando Sentinel:

A sheriff’s office spokesman said the man who deputies Tasered in south Orange County died this morning.

Capt. Angelo Nieves of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the man was “under the influence” when deputies used a Taser to control him. The agency has not released the man’s name.

Witnesses told deputies the man was charging at cars with a hammer on Landstreet Road and Orange Blossom Trail overnight.

Orange County deputies arrived at the scene and determined the man was holding a squeegee. Cmdr. Spike Hopkins said deputies found a wrench in the man’s vehicle and determined the suspect was dangerous. “The bizarre behavior was indicative of someone who was overdosing,” Hopkins said. Reports show the deputies tried to calm the man, but it didn’t work. Deputies stunned him with a Taser twice.

Here’s the source.

About a month ago, Oscar Reynolds Jr. was acquitted of robbing the Liberty Bank in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Guess what Mr. Reynolds was doing this past Tuesday? He was robbing that same bank! Unlike the first time, where he was acquitted because he could not be positively ID’d, smart money says Mr. Reynolds will see the inside of a cell this time. Why? Per The Jonesboro Sun:

In a police interview Reynolds “admitted to entering the bank with a gun and committing the robbery.”

Doh! And …

“There also was money found under the mattress in the bedroom where Reynolds was [hiding]. One of the bills found had a serial number that was logged by the bank as being stolen.”

“A firearm was found in the adjacent apartment that matched the description of the gun that the suspect used.”

Before I tell you what Christopher Lucero told New Mexico State Police Officer Kurtis Ward, just remember one thing: Lucero was drunk! As reported in The Albuquerque Journal, Lucero said he was weaving because:

His passenger spilled his beer …

Doh! There’s more.

… next to Lucero, 31, was a half-emptied bottle of Corona in a cup holder, police said. And that wasn’t even the beer he spilled. That was the one he had popped open to replace the one that had spilled on the floorboard while he went across three lanes of traffic on the interstate …

What about the field sobriety tests? Lucero was too drunk to do them. And, this was his SIXTH DWI arrest. What is he still doing on the road?
