Murder Most Fowl

The case of the Makaha Peacock Clubber has entered the courts.

To anyone not familiar with the Controversy, Mrs. Sandra Maloney a 68 year old resident of the Makaha Towers condominium was losing sleep for months due to the raucous love calls of feral peacocks which infest the area. In addition Mrs. Maloney was not enamored with the peafowls sanitary habits, in her words; "They crap all over our picnic area, there's feces running down the BBQ, and the food prep areas on the picnic tables and the benches".

Mrs. Maloney had sought relief from the Condo's board who are apparently idiots as she was reportedly told (and here I paraphrase) that the peacocks were here before she, so tough shit. For some reason that exchange reminds me of these lines from Monty Python's 'A COAL MINE IN LLANDDAROG CARMARTHEN'...

A management man arrives carried in sedan chair by two black flunkies. He wears a colonial governor's helmet and a large sign reading 'frightfully important'. All the miners prostrate themselves on the floor.

Foreman Oh, most magnificent and merciful majesty, master of the universe, protector of the meek, whose nose we are not worthy to pick and whose very feces are an untrammelled delight, and whose peacocks keep us awake all hours of the night with their noisy lovemaking, we beseech thee, tell thy humble servants the name of the section between the triglyphs in the frieze section of a classical Doric entablature.
Management Man No idea. Sorry.
Foreman Right. Everybody out.

They all walk off throwing down tools.

Anyway, apparently the feisty 68 year old not content with the outcome took matters into her own hands, and upon next being awakened by the caterwauling of the lovesick fowls proceeded downstairs from her retirement apartment armed with a baseball bat, and upon seizing one of the offenders by it's splendid plumage, and amidst the wailing and wringing of hands by her idiot neighbors, bashed the creatures head in with the aforementioned bat.

Mrs. Maloney freely and defiantly admits to the slaughter, and has pleaded not guilty to the animal cruelty charges bought by our idiot prosecutor.

Personally I can't think of a better argument for jury nullification
