Sawyer’s mother told the Virginian-Pilot last year that the piglet’s head freaked her out when she let her puppy outside early one morning last February and saw it staring back at her.

The reporter should get 50 years for poor writing.

“Decapitating the piglet your boyfriend raised as therapy after suffering a head injury is vicious evil depraved rubber-room bitch from hell.”

Nah, rubber room bitch describes the woman wh does ths the serves the guy pork chops.

I wonder if the DA had a BLT for lunch? Pigs are killed every day in the US.

“You are aware that serial killers usually start with animals, yes?”

You are aware of the danger in posing a correlation argument, yes?

Do remember that virtually ALL serial killers have a milk use history.

If she got 50 years for killing Piglet, just think how many years she would have gotten if she had killed Winnie-the-Pooh.

When the AAA got started in the New Deal, the idea was to raise the prices farmers received by reducing the supply--so farmers were paid to destroy crops already growing and to kill piglets. There was a huge outcry at the slaughter of the piglets. Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace commented that from the outcry, you'd have thought the piglets were being raised as pets.

I hate people who take their personal crap out on animals. I hate them every bit as much as I hate child molesters. Every bit as much. Anyone who goes after a helpless victim... if I had my way, they’d vanish in a flash of burning light. There’d be an agonized scream and then a pile of ashes.

“Fowler also plead guilty to charges of possessing Adderall and breaking and entering.”

Okay, this woman is a psycho-wench and probably a speed freak. It doesn’t surprise me she’d do something like this. Nor does it surprise me that killing something fit in with her idea of a prank.

[MetaThought]

I see your point, but she definitely needs a psych eval.

Sawyer’s mother told the Virginian-Pilot last year that the piglet’s head freaked her out when she let her puppy outside early one morning last February and saw it staring back at her.

Is the puppy owned by Jack Sawyer's mother or by Ashley Fowler? Who was "freaked out," the mother or Fowler? What does the puppy, the time of day, or being "freaked out" have to do with the story? Does "it" refer to the puppy or the piglet's head?

The Sawyers had to euthanize another pig who Fowler admitted to stabbing in the same incident.

"Who"?

I see why the author's name is not provided. I bet that the "play a prank" line is the author's creation, not a quote. The author probably believes that beheading a pig is just a prank.

Yu two cann be a jernalust and make bigg munnie!

Crazy doesn’t do her justice.

[Slings and Arrows]

There is. Amazing how many people post without reading the article. (And in fairness, the headline is deceptive at best.)

I just saw on television yesterday where a couple’s dog has watched the movie Babe every day for the last 11 years. I don’t know if it was dog years though.
