"Prosecutors said Goodwin, who was on probation for breaking into an apartment building last fall, kicked in the thin marble entrance to the tomb marked ``1863 Pierce,'' and twisted off the decomposed corpse's spine, collarbone and skull."
- Pardon my language but....WHAT AN ASSHOLE!

Isn't it great that the liberal judge gave him community service so he could be rehabilitated rather than put him in prison to punish him. After all, he is just a burglar. Jail time might hurt is self esteem. Give him another 6 months of probation so he has a second second chance.

"It happened in Massachusetts, they'll probably sentence him to community service."
Wrong. They will elect him to the Senate someday.

Hey!!! I wear black concert shirts, have tattoos... But my IQ is about 150. I'm from Mass. though and there's always a lot of tombstone desecration here too. Kids have no respect anymore. My last name is Peirce too, chances are that soldier is some sort of cousin. Interesting post though.

Old Hill Newbury cemetery ping... Grim. That's a beautiful old graveyard. Apparently this was unsupervised community service. Too bad Messachusetts doesn't have chain-gangs.

"grave desecration was more a southern trait."
Come on Non,you can do better than that. One article, speculative at best, does not infer a trait. Maybe they should write an article on Howard's soldiers desecration of graves at the Elmwood cemetery in Columbia, S.C.

What hope can you have for a Moron that commits a crime while serving time for another offense?
I'd suggest a lobotomy but doubt there is a frontal lobe to pierce.
