Retarded USC Girl

So this weekend was an absolute blast. We had awesome Thai food last night and I had 3 glasses of wine... see, I am pacing myself. :)

So, funny story - I heard a pastor actually say, "..before I could give them the ole up, down, left, right..." I thought that was precious.

Ok, so Sharon and Dr. Shealy went to this Asian market in Savannah on Saturday. While Sharon is paying, Dr. Shealy gathers up all the bags of groceries and heads to the car. When they get home, Sharon is unloading and starts laughing. She sees that he not only grabbed their groceries, he also grabbed the clerk's lunch. It was a 12 inch sub from Kroger.

So, I got to work today... and I decided it would be really cute to write a retarded article about it and edit a WSAV.com page and paste my story on... print blah blah blah. I found a police sketch on google that in some small way resembled Dr. Shealy. Then I printed it to look as if we printed it off the web.... and Buck took it over there under the premise that he saw the story on the news last night and printed it because the police sketch looked just like Dr. Shealy. :)

Series of Hate Crimes Emerge

Police Chief Michael Berkow has implemented numerous programs in Chatham County to address the problems of drug and violent crimes. In 2006, Berkow increased the number of officers providing neighborhood patrols. He “cracked down on crack” in 2007 by bring officers into the schools to educate students on the dangers of drugs, graduating more students from the D.A.R.E. program than any previous year. Berkow says that more programs are on the way for 2008.

“What people must realize is that Savannah is safer, but it is not safe. Petty crimes are happening every day and now we are even bearing witness to a series of hate crimes springing up across Chatham County”, Berkow continues, “We have recently seen a string of events that were thought to be isolated incidents, but upon further investigation, the only logical assumption is that these incidents are in fact a series of hate crimes”.

In the past two weeks, clerks from Hong Tan Oriental Grocer, Asia Market, and Nam-Chau Oriental Food Market have all been victims of petty theft. It is believed that the same man is responsible for all incidents. Wan Lee, one of the victims states, “I was just minding my own business and ringing up a customer’s purchase when he grabbed my lunch and ran off to his car”. Upon viewing surveillance footage, Chief Berkow reports that the man was gathering groceries he purchased with the help of a female accomplice when he spotted the clerk’s lunch. It is apparent from the film that he clearly looks around before grabbing her lunch and darting out of the store.

Chief Berkow believes that Wan Lee was lucky that the man in question does not appear to be a violent offender. Ping Wu Tron, an employee of Asia Market remembered seeing a man matching the same description in his store. The man and his female accomplice walked through the store inspecting the merchandise and making racial slurs.

La Cantina, a Hispanic Grocery store in Port Wentworth has also reported similar incidents. Upon meeting with police, Juan Hernandez was able to provide police with a sketch of the suspect. Employees at Hong Tan Oriental Grocer, Asia Market, and Nam-Chau Oriental Food Market have all viewed the sketch and feel certain the same man is behind all of these crimes.
While no charges have been filed, Chatham County authorities are considering this man a person of interest in several open investigations. If you see this man, you are asked to call the Savannah Police Department at 912-651-6675.
