Yellowstone, WY: Two Yellowstone National Park employees were fired after committing a national outrage by peeing into the “Old Faithful” geyser — an act caught on the web cam that streams video of the landmark’s eruptions.  The two were fired, fined and banned from the Wyoming park.  It appears that criminal charges for  UIP — urinating in public were not filed.

When you gotta go, you gotta go…

Needham, MA:  Police  in this Massachusetts town pulled over a man for driving erratically and discovered he was eating a bowl of cereal.  When asked what he was doing the 48 year old driver replied, simply that he was hungry.

I’ll bet he was a “cereal” offender, ha, ha,ha,ha….

Birdsong presents herewith a few more weird criminal law stories.

Saanich, Canada: A Canadian cop in Saanich, British Columbia heard passionate sounds coming from a trash dumpster — and upon investigation found a 30 year old woman and her boyfriend, 28, had turned it into a love nest.  The officer ordered the two to put on their clothes and leave.  No arrests were made.

A new meaning for “dirty sex.”

Yakima, WA: This Washington state kindergarten teacher apparently had enough of cleaning up after a student beset with bathroom issues and sent the stinky evidence  home to his parents.  “This little turd was found on the floor in my room,” the teacher wrote in a note sent along with the fecal find.  The student is being transferred.  Officials won’t discuss the teacher’s job status but say no criminal charges have been filed.

Oh Poo!

Fresno, CA:  Police in Fresno arrested a man for allegedly tattooing a gang insignia on a 7-year old boy — at the direction of the child’s father.

More weird and funny criminal law stories by birdsongslaw blog.

Des Moines, IA:  Not a leg left to stand on! When police arrested a Des Moines man for stealing an artificial leg, they confiscated the prosthetic limb and left him hobbling.  Rogoberto Zarazua Rubio, who was fitted for the leg at a medical supply store, walked out to take it for a test spin and allegedlynever  returned to pay for it.

He is  now as disadvantaged as the proverbial “one legged man in an ass-kicking contest.”

South Carolina;  Here’s another one.  Officials have exhumed the body of a 6-foot-7 minister after hearing rumors that his legs were cut off because the mortician had ordered a coffin that was too small.

Plastic orgy maybe…………?

Iowa City, IA: Perhaps, this was the best time to have had one more for the road.  An Iowa City youth showed up dead drunk at a hearing — to be sentenced for public intoxication.
