A couple of Canadian teens broke into a house, trashed the place, and then microwaved the family's cat. Of course this happened in Alberta and the judge only gave them probation.

Canadian Teens Convicted for Microwaving Family's Cat as Christmas 'Gift'

Friday, September 05, 2008

Two Canadian teens were handed a year’s probation for trashing a home while the owners were on vacation, and leaving behind a nasty present, according to the Globe and Mail.

Among the $10,000 in damages was writing scrawled on the kitchen window and cabinets: "You had a nice cat" and "it's in the microwave."

Princess, the cat, "was screaming in the microwave for 10 minutes while it was essentially cooked to death," Prosecutor John Laluk reportedly told the court.

The two 16-year-old boys from Camrose, Alberta, pleaded guilty to breaking and entering, theft and causing pain to an animal. Both were sentenced to 100 hours of community service and one had to give up his family dog, the newspaper reported.

Outside the court Thursday, protesters carried signs demanding "Justice for Princess." Three others are facing charges in relation to the crime.

I can't possibly imagine why so many criminals become repeat offenders, can you?

The US has much harsher sentencing laws yet some how Canada has both a lower crime rate and a lower recidivism rate.

Let's see how they'd like it, huh? Put them in microwave!

A bit harsh, but they'd only be an example. Besides, the less teens, the better.

Ohio mom spared death penalty for microwaving baby

An Ohio jury has spared the life of a woman who killed her infant daughter by microwaving her.

The jury told the judge Wednesday that it couldn't agree on whether to recommend the death penalty or life in prison for 28-year-old China Arnold.

Arnold now could spend between 25 years and the rest of her life in prison, depending on what Montgomery County Judge Mary Wiseman decides.

The defense had argued that Arnold was drunk when the crime occurred and that she had no motive. Prosecutors called the crime "heinous."

Arnold was convicted Friday of aggravated murder for killing daughter Paris Talley in 2005.

The article clearly says 100 hours of community service as well.

And there was a thread on this months ago. If you're pretending to be a hipster, you should stay up to date.

Has it ever occurred to you that this doesn't mean lighter sentences are better? It could just be that Americans have a greater tendency to be violent jerks, couldn't it?

They microwaved the cat? And they got probation?
