God, or someone, has his ways.
Jose Luis Ochoa, 35, of Lamont, California, was killed by his own cock. He even armed it with the knives that caused his mortal wound.
Mr. Ochoa was declared dead at a local hospital nearly two hours after he was injured in neighboring Tulare County on Jan. 30, said the Kern County coroner. He had been stabbed in the calf by a rooster armed with knives, and several dead roosters and other evidence of cock-fighting were found at the scene.Tragedy or divine justice?
Apparently the weapon attached to the rooster's leg sliced into the handler's calf, causing the "sharp force injury" cited in the autopsy report.
According to Kern County Superior Court records, Ochoa had paid $370 in fines in 2010, pleading no contest to charges of 'owning or training an animal for fighting.' A second offense would have been considered a felony under California law.
Weapons used in inhumane cock fighting.
They're actually razors, I'm told. And bad as this is, if we saw how chickens are raised on factory farms we might consider this guy humane.
ReplyDeleteI understand what you're saying but I don't consider either humane.
ReplyDeleteIf a man can't control his cock any better than that, he got what he deserves. Besides, he is not the first man to be killed because of the actions of his cock.
ReplyDeleteA perfect case of he who lives by selfish blood sport stupidity dying by selfish blood sport stupidity.
ReplyDeleteI hope Ochoa's demise is well publicized so others will appreciate the importance of not arming chickens, or any other creatures.
Too bad something like this didn't happen to Michael Vick! Or any other asshole who abuses animals such for that matter. But like Critter, I too expected his demise to be affiliated with something between his legs. This is even better. Poetic justice.
ReplyDeleteFor once I think we have a concensus here. ; )
ReplyDeleteMr C - welcome. Yeah, too bad the cock didn't aim a little higher and a little more to the inside.
LOL!!! Jerry!
ReplyDeleteHate to go to hell and have to admit I died because of an irrate chicken.
Hey, Sue Lowden said people were supposed to send chickens to the doctor, not the other way around.
ReplyDeleteIf it were really divine justice, Ochoa would now be in a Hell where giant chickens practice people-fighting.
Maybe the NRA is right after all.
ReplyDeleteIf this guy had been armed with a glock and cock-killer bullets he might be alive today!
(DAH-dum!)
Foolish and absolutely senseless death!
ReplyDeletedivine justice
ReplyDeleteThe title of this post would serve just as well for your next post on Christopher Lee.
