that Wilbanks fiasco--real letters that people wrote to the Police Dept. in Georgia about what they should do with her.

" MAY 9--What to do with the so-called Runaway Bride? Well, the city fathers and police from Duluth, Georgia--home to troubled Jennifer Wilbanks--have been deluged with suggestions from the public about how to punish the wide-eyed woman who fled town days before her 600-guest nuptials. Pursuant to an open records request filed by TSG, Duluth officials provided us with in excess of 1000 letters sent to them regarding the Wilbanks matter (below you'll find what we consider the cream of the crop)."

1. I've got to go steam clean the carpet in my office...
but I'm posting here so that I can go back and read it later. I love it when TSG finds stuff like this. The regular loonies come out of the woodwork. LOL.

On edit: I just love how this whole thing has turned into a turd-bomb for the press, given how they tried SO HARD to use this as a way to avoid covering real news.

4. "Hollywood & the media has negatively effected the intellect ...
... of many people around."

Letter subject: Will banks

Does Lynne with the peace dove stationery recognize the irony in her last sentence when she uses "effected" instead of "affected" and she cannot spell the woman's name correctly?

8. WTF?
The "lady" must pay for embarrising the police, the city, the country. If she was a poor Mexican or black she would be stoned to death in public after 40 lashes have been applied to her naked body.

Land of Equality My Butt!

Rev. Frank Varelli

(and a 972 area code on his phone number that says he's from North Texas. WONDERFUL, just what we need.)

I don't even UNDERSTAND that letter at all. What on earth is he trying to say?
