(**Borrowing heavily from the NewMexiKen playbook, with acknowledgement)
Found in this brief story in the ABQjournal.
Background: a 24-year old man pleads guilty to shooting, from his moving vehicle no less, nine sheep or goats and one dog. That's, count 'em, three felonies.
Shooting, for no good reason, really. Boredom? Borracho? Both?
"I have no idea what they were thinking, and I would venture a guess that they're probably wondering what they were thinking then, too," Chief Deputy District Attorney Dustin O'Brien said.
That gave me a chuckle over lunch at my desk. Hope it's true. A little after-the-fact remorse is a good thing, in this case.
