Wasilla, Alaska (The Adobo Chronicles) – The Wasilla Police Department has issued an order to take Sarah Palin’s dog into protective custody after the former Alaska governor was formally charged with animal cruelty.

The charge came shortly after Palin posted on her Facebook page a photo of her 6-year-old son Trig, trying to reach the kitchen sink and using the dog — a black labrador — as a step stool.

Apparently, Palin was so amused and thought that the photo she took of Trig would be “inspirational” to her followers.

Along with the photo, Palin wrote, “Determined to help wash dishes with an oblivious mama not acknowledging his signs for ‘up!’, found me and a lazy dog blocking his way. He made his stepping stone.”

Animal cruelty is illegal in the U.S. and the local Bureau of Animal Control has the power to take away abused and battered dogs from their owners.

Wasilla does not have a separate Animal Control Department. The Wasilla Police Department doubles up as the city’s Animal Control.

Palin is set to appear before a judge on Monday.  She plans to plead “not guilty.”

 

MAN SUSPECTED OF CARJACKING A HEARSE PLEADS GUILTY TO A LESSER CHARGE: CASKET THEFT

imageLos Angeles, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – A man allegedly stole a hearse that contained a casket during a funeral in South Park Saturday morning, according to Los Angeles Police Department officials.

The hearse was stolen from the Ebenezer Baptist Church, located at 4901 Avalon Blvd. in South L.A., pictured, on Dec. 27, 2014.

Witnesses said an older man climbed into the unoccupied hearse and drove off. The vehicle’s motor was running before he entered it. Funeral attendees then followed the hearse, managed to get the man to pull over, and eventually recovered the funeral car and casket. The car thief was apprehended by L.A. police.

Appearing before a judge on Monday, the carjacking suspect pleaded not guilty to auto theft, saying it was never his intention to steal the funeral car.

He, however, pleaded guilty to a lesser charge: stealing a casket.

Because the casket contained a human body at the time of the theft, prosecutors are preparing a new charge: kidnapping.

Only in L.A.!

 

 

MISS WORLD 2013 AND MISS WORLD 2014: SEPARATED AT BIRTH?

London, Great Britain (The Adobo Chronicles) – It’s the proverbial “Six Degrees of Separation.” More and more people now believe that based on the world’s long history of migration, trade, intermarriage and Genealogy, we are all related.  Some more related than others.

Organizers of the Miss World Beauty Pageant in London are now investigating rumors that Miss World 2013 Megan Young of the Philippines and Miss World 2014 Rolene Strauss of South Africa are sisters, separated at birth.

Many Filipinos living in South Africa have, in fact, intermarried with South Africans and other nationals in the country, according to Wikipedia.

Both are stunning beauties, fair and flawless complexioned with perfectly chiseled faces — not to mention their very similar Mona Lisa smiles. They even sported the same hairdo on coronation night during the Miss World 2014 finals in London. And did we already mention they’re both brunettes?

The coronation photo stunned many observers and beauty connoisseurs who swore that both looked too much alike.

At least, the pageant’s standard of beauty is consistent.
