Weird But True

Weird but true

No good deed goes unpunished.

Ever since Tracy Lundeen, 31, helped classmate Shawn Moul with his homework when they were in middle school 17 years ago, Moul has been stalking the Seattle woman by making threats, going to her house and sending letters.

He’s been arrested more than 20 times over the decades, and is now facing 20 years in prison.

This kid’s a born Sherlock Holmes.

After taking a youth CSI class in Atlanta, Jessica Maple, 12, learned that her great-grandmother’s house was burglarized.

Maple tracked the stolen items to a pawn shop, got the perpetrator’s ID from the shop owner and got the crook to confess.

When real cops finally got involved she told them: “I did your job!”

A porn studio has accused a man of watching tons of illegal smut — even though he’s totally blind.

The sightless man, known only as John Doe, was one of 3,500 people sued by a California porn studio for illegal downloads.

The man says he’s innocent and has never watched porn because of his condition.

The only question now is: Just how did he go blind?

This guy thought he was Fred Flintstone, and it got him arrested.

A Detroit man was busted after he was spotted using his feet to stop his pickup truck that had no brakes.

The man was seen sticking his right foot out of the truck, which was going at low speeds, in an effort to brake. It didn’t work well, as he wound up hitting several vehicles.

A library in British Columbia, Canada, is now letting customers check out people.

Visitors to the Surrey City Centre library can “check out” experts in topics such as blindness, immigration, religion and other issues.

Just make sure to return the materials on time, ’cause the late fees are a killer.
