Bad grades = hamster murder
Police have arrested a Georgia woman who they say forced her son to kill his pet hamster with a hammer as punishment for earning a bad grade.
The 12-year-old boy told his teacher about the killing and the teacher reported it to the Division of Family and Child Services, who contacted police.
The 38-year-old Lynn Middlebrooks Geter faces one charge each of animal cruelty, child cruelty and battery.
But, hey, at least he’s not grounded.
So where do we draw the line at pet homicide? What if his punishment was to flush his goldfish? I got it. The cuter the pet, the worse it is. Watch out Chihuahuas.
