JEREMIAH WILLIAMS and JOHN AUEN arrested for murdering a Virginia opossum

- Alabama, USA -

 

The Wetumpka Police Department arrested 18-year-old JEREMIAH WILLIAMS and 20-year-old JOHN AUEN (both pictured).

 

Police Chief Ed Reeves said the duo “beat a possum to death with a golf club”, reports The Wetumpka Herald.

 

The incident took place in the lower parking lot of the Wetumpka City Administration Building that is used as one of the entrances to Gold Star Park.

 

According to The Wetumpka Herald, on the evening of Tuesday, September 10, 2024, “Witnesses found a scene they couldn’t believe.”

 

Chief Reeves told the news agency: “I’ve never seen this before”. He said that in his law enforcement career he has investigated many strange things but nothing like this.

 

Online arrest records maintained by the Elmore County Sheriff’s Office show that the filthy murderers were booked on September 10, 2024, on one count of animal cruelty and released less than two hours after their arrest.

 

No additional information was released about the case. At the time of writing, Chief Ed Reeves has not responded to my email request for further details about the investigation.

 

I took the liberty of naming the furvictim Petal for the tribute image.

These two human ( I guess) miscreants are a drain on society. They viciously took the life of a very docile & important part of this world, unlike them who have nothing to offer obviously. These two shirtless obscenities deserve the maximum punishment for their cruelty. Rest now Petal, you deserved to live your life in peace & those savages who murdered you will suffer in violence.
