Ex-Homecoming Queen Beats Sister With Fake Leg In Trailer

NORTH HUNTINGDON, Pa. -- A former homecoming queen is facing a slew of charges Thursday, accused of attacking her sister with a prosthetic leg and then threatening to burn down a neighbor's home.

Not long after graduating from Norwin High School, drama began for Donna Sturkie-Anthony.The ex-homecoming queen had two DUI convictions in Allegheny County in 1991. One was in Rankin, where police said she was so drunk she smeared her feces in the back of a police car.

Police said Anthony's sister came to visit her at her Route 30 trailer, and the two started arguing about her alcohol abuse. Then, police said Anthony pulled off her sister's prosthetic leg and beat her with it.

A month later, police said, Anthony stole her neighbor's telephone and then threatened to burn down their trailer if they testified against her. In another incident, police said Anthony threw ground meat at her neighbor before she threatened to kick his pregnant daughter in the stomach.

This probably isn't funny, sounds like the lady has some serious mental health issues. But you can't write headlines any better than that! :rofl:

3. "Only in America"
That's what we'd say if this were some sort of a heartwarming tale, anyway. But, yeah, I think maybe you can tell what country this occurred in just by the headline.

8. The scariest thing about this story is that down in Florida, right this minute,
they're holding a town hall meeting to figure out how to reclaim the "State with the Craziest Shit Ever" title. And you just know they're gonna come up with something extreme...

14. I don't know where it is, I wasn't invited
But I imagine that if you go down to your local city hall or police station and ask them where the crazy-stuff planning meeting is being held, they'll be happy to take care of you...

13. Yes I did!!!! What a memory you have!!
Turns out the "penis" was actually a Whizzinator, or some such thing, designed to help you pass a urine test.

We have a lot of freaks here in Western PA. I also posted some time ago about a spurned woman who super-glued her lover's penis and testicles to his stomach and legs. It would be scary if it weren't so 'normal'.

42. My pastor once did a funeral for a man, who at the wake was wearing steelers clothes...
and had an Iron City in one hand and a remote control in the other.

I remember seeing news stories about that.

35. These are not rednecks. They are yinzers
Some believe them to be related to groups in New Jersey (think Carl from ATHF), but no definitive conclusion can be reached.

43. Yinzer: A part of our very unique, and horrible, dialect.
The definition is: A Picksburgh native who talks right, n'at.

47. You know, that gives me some real perspective-
like on the days I wake up and feel like everything I touch turns to shit- I can happily say "At least I'm not Donna Sturkie-Anthony".

Thank you for that! :D Damn, but what a STORY!
