She's 90 and allegedly mean
Here's the big talker of the day around the newsrooms. It's a story that will appear in Thursday's Whittier Daily News. Kinda sick. ..Sandra Molina is writing it and filling in the blanks. The jist comes from Sandra's budget note to editors here this a.m.:
Officials are investigating a fatal animal cruelty charge. SEEACA received a call Monday night from the Norwalk Sheriff’s Station about animal cruelty. The Chihuahua mix was 25 pounds and the incident happened at 12139 Bayla Street in Norwalk. Son brought the dog into SEEACA. An animal control officer noticed the dog covered in blood and an eye popped out. The 90-year-old woman alledgedly threw parts of a block at the dog and beat the tied-up animal with a shovel. Officials say she’s a danger to children in the neighborhood and should be arrested and put in a home.

So, I'm assuming that this is a "big talker" around the newsroom because it's considered funny when an old woman almost kills a little dog with a shovel.
Good for you. Thanks for keeping us posted on the important news of the day.

Do you really think all of the reporters in the newsroom were slapping there knees and laughing about a dog that was nearly beaten to death.It is a newsworthy story, maybe if you had better reading comprehension, you would have understood that.

That's how it all starts. Killing of pets always leads to bigger things. And, You guys in the office probably always laugh at things like this and if anyone there in the office denies it, you are just a bunch of liars. Tell me no one laughed and I bet you my pension check for May you are lying.
