Dog stabbed, an office weeps

Today on video arraignments, which is when incarcated individuals appear before the court via video phone, a man is accused of fatally stabbing a dog.

What the shit.

First word of this came at lunch from fellow intern and Court Reporter Andrea Brown. Despite the macabre nature of this accusation, I had the most undesirable reaction. I laughed.

I know it's horrible. I understand that a dog died. I see that every other person in the office recoiled in horror when they heard the news. I just don't care.

Seriously. Picture someone trying to stab a dog, failing on the first few attempts, then getting into a heated wrestling match with the canine while the dog holds off the knife by bracing the attackers arm with only his paw. I know you're laughing now. I know it because that's what I pictured and it's hilarious.

So get off my back.

Besides, it's the dog's fault for not sporting kevlar.
