GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) - A man accused of killing his Kent County Jail cellmate because he suspected the man of stealing his snack cake has been convicted of murder.

Prosecutors say he dragged Estrada from the top bunk of his bed after discovering his Honey Bun snack cake was missing.

Buns should be banned.

Hey, those things are delish....

A twinkee I can understand, but a honey bun?

[Revolting cat!]

Tomorrow's headline today:

Bunk Buns Banned!

[popdonnelly]

Few intelligent people in prison.

[purpleraine]

At first, I thought he called him Honey Bun.

[oust the louse]

So did he eat the dang snack cake or not?...why would they leave you hanging like that? Pizz poor journalism if you ask me...they (honey bunns) are pretty good though.

We know what this guy would do for a klondike bar

[Grizzled Bear]

What’s his new prison nick-name?

[silentreignofheroes]

Not first hand experience,but,,Honey Buns mean something in prison..

[umgud]

So, sweet cheeks, bought it over some buns?

[A knight without armor]

Yes a honey bun. I worked in a prison for years and honey buns pastries were like serious currency. Yes there would be violence and blood shed over honey buns.

Can we put the Mexican that beat the little kid to death in this guys cell?

LOL!!! My husband went to bed about half an hour ago—he has to get up around 3:00. It was too good not to wake him up for. He is the Honey Bun man. He takes them, puts them on a plate, smears some butter on them and nukes them for 15 seconds. Then..........he’s in heaven! He will fight you for his Honey Buns! LOL!

Just shows that everything is relative, depending on your perspective. But, a Honey Bun?? Life gets cheaper every day.

LOL!

[doc1019]

I’m a devoted devote’ (?) of Honey Buns. I consider them one of the major food groups … however … to kill over them is something … let me think about this for a moment … yes, I would kill anyone stepping near my “Honey Buns” … Auggg.

LOL!

My God, I hate to think what he might do if you didn’t leggo his Eggo!

I'm guessing it doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to figure out if there are 2 people locked up in a cell, and someone eats your Honey Bun, and it wasn't you, not a whole lot of other options are available. It's elementary my dear Watson.
