Man Arrested For Saving A Stray Chicken --by Carl Worden (OR)
<snip>
"Here goes:
Nick Gombos is heading home from his gym workout at 10:00 PM, and he stops by the small closed Ray’s Food Market in Murphy, Oregon on his way home to Williams, to pick up a copy of the free weekly 'Nickel' classified ads.
He sees this shivering chicken huddled in an open crate next to the Nickel magazine stand. The chicken looks abandoned and lonely, so Nick, the animal lover, takes pity on the chicken, picks her up, and takes her home and safety.
...The next thing that happens is that four Josephine County Sheriff squad cars loaded with militarized, jack-booted deputies with guns show up at Nick's home at 1:00 AM, armed with a tainted search warrant they received from sleepy Judge Gerald Neufeld. How do you describe a chicken accurately on a search warrant? Anyway, they arrest Nick, a Vietnam veteran, handcuff him and drag him off to jail like a common criminal wearing nothing more than his red Speedos (bikini briefs). The arresting officers allegedly injure Nick in the process."
