Crazy Toliet Corpse Lady Convicted

Barely Hanging On — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 03:45:30 +0000

Check out those eyeballs. Crazy. So a crazy lady named Tammy Lewis, 36, of Necedah Wis. pleaded no contest Monday to obstructing a police officer and was fined $350. She was a real god loving woman and to help Jesus shed decided to help her religious leader hide a decaying corpse on her toilet so they could continue collecting her Social Security. That Jesus can make people do strange things can't he.

Prosecutors accused Lewis and Alan Bushey, 58, of hiding 90-year-old Magdeline Alvina Middlesworth's body on a toilet in Lewis' home in Necedah after she died in March. She apparently hide the corpse in a bathroom for several weeks.

Investigators said that Middlesworth and Lewis were members of a religious sect that Bushey led. A criminal complaint said that Bushey told Lewis that God would revive Middlesworth, who friends and family said was from Washington state.

God never did revive her and they got pinched for stealing the money. Praise Jesus.

Drunk Driving Activist Killed by Alleged Drunk Driver

Barely Hanging On — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 02:49:47 +0000

This is probably one of the sadest stories I have seen in awhile. An 18 year old girl who devoted her life trying to save and protect teens on the highways was killed from a head on crash last week. The driver that killed her was allegedly drunk.

had devoted herself to doing something about the wave of teen crash fatalities in her North Carolina county. She studied teen highway deaths as her senior project at Clayton High School before graduating last spring. She changed her major at Wayne Community College from dental hygiene to criminal justice, says her aunt, Karmela Adkins.

Then on Saturday night she was killed in a head-on collision just a few blocks from her home, the victim of an alleged drunken driver.

Desiree Olsen, 29, who was thrown from her truck, was in good condition Tuesday in a Raleigh hospital. She was charged with felony death by motor vehicle, while the primary element of the charge is driving while intoxicated, says State Highway Patrol Sgt. T.L. Gibson.

You can read the rest of the heart wrenching story at the source.

Woman Wins $3 Million Suit from Target

Barely Hanging On — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 11:14:50 +0000

Like I say, nobody says you have to be smart to work at Target. The employees in this case get a Barely Hanging On award for costing their employer $3 million dollars. Not bad for min wage workers.

"A federal jury in Greenville ordered Target to pay a woman $3 million on Thursday for not accepting her $100 bills and wrongly accusing her of using counterfeit cash. Court documents stated that Rita Cantrell of Greer went to two Target stores in the Greenville area in Feb. 2006, and both times employees accused her of using a counterfeit bill. Cantrell tried to buy items at the store and pay with an older series $100 bill."

The real kicker is that the Einstein who worked there sent emails along with her picture out to dozens of area retailers including where she worked. Nice work!

Indiana Father Kills Sex Offender

Barely Hanging On — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 09:53:45 +0000

Your Ad Here

Finally a story where it's one for the good guys. Congratulations go out to 64-year-old Robert McNally of Indianapolis for ridding the gene pool and planet of another scum bag sex offender. Robert awoke to hear his 17 year old daughter screaming and found 52-year-old David T. Meyers in her room. "Meyers was naked except for a mask and latex gloves and had entered the home through a window near the girl's bedroom with rope, condoms and a knife. He was familiar with the home's layout because it belonged to a relative"

When police arrived McNally had the scum bag in a choke hold and he was pronounced dead at the scene. Well Meyers in death you made the Barely Hanging On list and I hope you enjoy your enternity of being satans sex slave you freak.

What is worse is that he was wanted for not registering but I guess the cops of Boone County weren't worried enough about him to track him down. Another great side piece for the crumbling legal system. Meyers had served 10 years in prison for criminal confinement and sexual deviate conduct and was wanted in Boone County for failure to register as a sex offender. He was registered as a sex offender in Marion County.

Barely Hanging On — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 08:59:27 +0000

No matter how many times I hear stories like this I love them. A drunked hick on a stolen tractor doing damage to a town. Does it get any better than this?

Dominic Andrew Bjerke, 21, of LeRoy, Minn., is accused of stealing a combine and taking it on a joy ride across three properties near McIntire about 2:30 a.m. The combine caused damage to numerous vehicles and a couple of garages, according to the Mitchell County Sheriff's Office.

Dominic Andrew Bjerke, of Leroy, Minnesota, has been charged with first offense operating while intoxicated, third-degree burglary, third-degree theft and criminal mischief as a Class C felony.

I googled around to see if there was a picture of this sweetheart but couldn't find any. If you come across one let me know. I love to put a face to the story.

Marijuana for McDonalds

Barely Hanging On — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 08:43:04 +0000

Congrats to Shawn Alexander Pannullo, 27, of the 4800 block of Second Street, Vero Beach for making the Barely Hanging On class of 2008. I have never heard of anybody so hard for to clog an artery and trade away perfectly good pot for some god awful cooking before but you have done it.

Shawn was so hard up for a burger that when he went through the drive through he offered to pay for his meal with pot instead of the cash. The McDonalds worker quickly called police and the found him with a small amount of pot on his person. He was charged with possession and posted bail.

I have no idea why somebody would give away something for nothing but he must have really liked those cheeseburgers.

Sarah Palin Photos Funny

Barely Hanging On — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 13:18:30 +0000

I love these corporate go go team photos. The big whigs running companies think that they motivate people to the cause of their company. In reality they bring the workers together because they make fun of the brass for putting up such pathetic attempts at office harmony.

Here are some great Sarah Palin motivational pictures for you to enjoy and remember I have a nice little collection of them going in the Sarah Palin Photo Archives. I have some more that I will post laters.

Heidi Montag Has a Big Bag

Barely Hanging On — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 11:38:55 +0000

Have you ever seen anything as ridiculous as the size of the bag on Heidi Montag? Where is she going out for a walk or is she going for a two year vacation somewhere? Totally crazy, my golf bag isn't as big and goofy lugging it around the golf course for god sack and it actually serves a purpose. There is something clown like when a woman has a bag that is bigger than her dress.
