A Wis. man, Peter W. Mischler, 48, came home on a Saturday after he’d been out hunting. He was upset with his 22 year old daughter, who was talking on the phone with her mother at the time, as she had let the goats out and they’d made a mess.
While the daughter was still on the phone the man told his daughter to ask her mother to bring home some beer but the wife refused.
Angrily he threatened to shoot the goats if she didn’t bring home beer.
She didn’t bring any beer home and shortly after she arrived back at the house the mother and daughter heard four gunshots outside. They went outside and found one of their two goats with it’s entrails hanging out.
Mischler was charged in Circuit Court with mistreatment of animals, possession of a firearm while intoxicated and disorderly conduct with a dangerous weapon.
The poor injured goat was shot by a deputy to put it out of it’s misery.
Mischler posted $1000 cash bond and was released. No word on whether he returned home to his wife and daughter.

In November two North Carolinian men fought over a bizarre custody dispute. The battle wasn’t over children. Uh huh … it was over an amputated leg!
John Wood missed payments at a storage facility where his barbecue was kept and the item was auctioned off. Unfortunately for him he forgot that he’d kept his old limb inside the barbecue.
Shannon Whisnant, the BBQ’s new owner has been busy charging curious residents of Maiden to see the dismembered appendage. She plans to keep it and she’s threatened legal action if Mr. Wood attempts to reclaim it.
Now isn’t that bizarre?

In March an elderly Mexican woman, 98 years young, filed a legal complaint against a suitor 50 years her junior who she claims tried to kiss her and threatened to kill her if she didn’t let the man move in with her.
Maria de Jesus Flores, widow and mother of four grown children who live in the United States, says she first met Manuel Martinez, 48, when he started delivering groceries to her home. Flores told the daily Reforma that he began propositioning her to the point of harassment.
“I’ve been a widow since 1950,” said Flores. “He said he couldn’t live without me, that he loved me, but that’s not for me … I can’t have sexual relations any more, I’m 98,” she added that she suspected that what Martinez really wanted was for her to support him financially.
Martinez snapped and threatened to kill her if she continued to turn him down causing de Jesus Flores to lodge a complaint with the local attorney generals office.
