Dead Snake Bites Man's Finger

Last week, two men were hanging out at the homeless encampment in Mobile, Alabama when genius one saw a snake "swimming down along the creek and everything". He ran "down and hit it with the machete and killed it and brought it up".

Genius two thought it would be fun to play with the severed head of the snake believed to be a cottonmouth. So "he picked the head up and stuck himself right in the finger with it,” genius one said.  “He put his finger in there and all of a sudden the nerves, I guess, and it bit down on his finger.”

When paramedics arrived, genius two refused to go to the hospital for treatment. Paramedics were quickly called back after he began experiencing symptoms from the snake venom.

Genius one is identified as Stacey and genius two is Bo McMahon. 



Bo McMahon thought it would be fun to put his finger in the mouth of the decapitated snake, but the joke was on him. Glad he is fine and that he learned a lesson. Stacy, put away that machete until there is real danger and before you hurt someone.

Note to reporter...snakes are venomous because they inject venom; poison is absorbed. However, venom can be poisonous.

Peace

Dumb Criminal's Posts on Facebook

It's fortunate that there are stupid criminals, especially in this instance. This perpetrator's stupidity helps law enforcement officers discover a truly perverted crime. Montigo (Tigo) Arrington's fortunate mistake: he threatens a police station suicide bombing on Facebook.



This picture is from his Facebook page.





This picture, also from Facebook, is the day he got home from prison, taken in his niece's room. According to the sheriff deputies, Arrington was previously charged with manufacturing meth.







On October 27, 2011, he allegedly posted the following on Facebook: "Has any1 else eva thought bout strappin a bomb on n walk n a police department n blowin da [expletive] up".

An anonymous person contacted police at the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office about his Facebook status. The sheriff's department contacted Arrington's parole officer who searched his home and found pornographic pictures of children on his cell phone. Yes, his stupidity is fortunate and most likely saved some young child from his abuse.

On Halloween, Arrington posted this on Facebook: "Tric or treat smell my feet let me girl let me c if ur good 2 eat". Below, is a picture of him and his niece, also from Facebook.





Something about this picture disturbs me. I sincerely hope this child's parents keep her away from him in the future.





He may have been just talking nonsense about the suicide bombing, but his big mouth got him arrested for child pornography and that's a good thing.

Arrington is charged with violating his probation and possession of child pornography. He is booked on a $20,000 bond.

Chief Deputy Randy Christian told the Birmingham News: "Note to self, do not post something stupid on the Internet for all the world to see. 'Most especially, a blatant threat to law enforcement."

Note to Chief Deputy Christian: If he hadn't made that Facebook status, we would not have known of his sick interest in children.

Thanks, Tigo Arrington, for being a truly dumb criminal!

Peace
