Here's something you might be interested in.
I saw a couple of short stories in the U-T this morning, right on the same page.
One was about a motorist in Modesto that crashed into a power pole, toppling iy.
Why did she crash? The cat she had on her lap scratched her.
She suffered minor injuries (I'm assuming, other than the cat scratch). The cat was taken to the vet for an injured eye.
Boy, do I love this. I hate cats. And I hate idiots that drive with them on their lap. Or that have more than one cat. Is that necessary? They are such evil little creatures, they really are.
And, this is why Assemblyman Bill Maze passed that bill about animals on your lap while you drive. A totally unnecessary bill, as I said the other day. Just charge idiots like this, an extra five grand. No new laws, though.
Now, one animal that was injured I did feel sorry about, was the dolphin that swam into another dolphin at Sea World, and died. Boy, this is going to give PETA something to talk about. And rightly so.
The other story, is so frustrating. And, I hate to keep talking about these things. It's beating a dead horse.
Some loser in Buena Park, got arrested for carjacking. The judge looked at the two strikes, said it would be his third if it goes to trial and he's found guilty and that he'd send him to jail for life. If he pleaded guilty now, with no trial, only two years. The dude took the two years, but claimed he didn't do the carjacking.
After 10 months, they found the real person that did. Okay. Bad luck.
Not so fast. Apparently, good luck for this criminal scum bag. He gets $31,700 from a California Victim Compensation and Government Claims Board. Now, I have no problem with that. Thirty grand for 10 months of prison for something he didn't do.
But, the city of Beuna Park also decided to settle with him for $550,000.
So, kids, the moral of the story is this. If you are like OJ and Robert Blake, you can kill and get away with it (oh, and Phil Spector). If you did not do the crime, you either get off, or get jailed. If you get jailed, you become rich. Even if you have a history of crime, and have reason to have been arrested in the first place.
So...go out and do the crimes. Apparently, crime does pay.
