BENBROOK, Texas –Two baseball players at Western Hills High School are being charged with cruelty to livestock animals after being accused of killing baby chickens as part of a superstitious sacrifice.
According to reports, a baby chick was found decapitated in March behind the school’s baseball fields. Another chicken was also found decapitated the following day. Police said superstition about a slump in baseball performance could have played a part.
Western Hills High School baseball coach Bobby McIntire said that “baseball is very superstitious” and that the players possibly got the idea from sports movies. In the movies “Bull Durham” and “Major League,” chicken sacrifices are used to help break players out of slumps.
Benbrook police Sgt. John Van Ness says that the charges are a felony punishable by 180 days to two years in jail and can include a fine up to $10,000. Police say the two students are cooperating in the investigation.
The two players, ages 15 and 16, were kicked off the team for the rest of the season.
PETA appears to have its hands full in Texas. Five students were disciplined at North Side High School in Fort Worth earlier this year for allegedly throwing baby chickens and live fish during a pep rally.
Elizabeth Graffeo, TeachKind program manager for PETA, wrote a letter to Western Hills High School offering assistance in setting up an animal-rights club at the school. “Teaching students about animal issues helps prevent violence and helps students apply concepts of respect and kindness toward animals in their own lives,” Graffeo said in her letter.
…and since I know that you are curious, I am pleased to report that the Western Hills High School Cougars varsity baseball team has won 6 of the nine games played since the baby chicks were decapitated and had their blood spilled on the field. The Cougars also won last Monday’s conference game against the Wyatt Chaparrals by a score of 23-1. Go Cougars!

Another weird crime story:

In Oregon, a teenager was playing keyboards for a small crowd inside a coffee shop when he pulled out a knife and proceeded to stab himself to death.
Police say that on Thursday, 19-year-old Kipp Rusty Walker, was performing a song he introduced as “Sorry for the Mess“ in front of a crowd of around 15 people at the Strictly Organic Coffee Company. When he was done the crowd began clapping and Walker stood up and began stabbing himself in the chest with knife over and over again.
“It was really unclear at first what was even happening,” coffee shop co-owner, Rhonda Ealy said. “You know it is an open mic and it’s a performance, people at first thought it was some sort of theater.”
Walker was taken to St. Charles Medical Center where he later died from the multiple self-inflicted stab wounds to his chest.
One friend said he expected Walker was going to do something like this. He had called Walker’s parents back in March after Walker had threatened to kill himself. That resulted in Walker spending a few days in a psychiatric unit. But his friend told KTVZ that the teen was not depressed, he just didn’t want to live any more and wanted to commit suicide in a public place.
“It was almost like he wanted to prove a point, like there’s no point in being scared of death because it’s going to happen to us anyway,” the friend said.
