Holy crap, a bunch of people got arrested over the weekend.

FRIDAY, JAN. 9

George Zimmerman, the guy who got away with murdering Trayvon Martin, was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence. AGAIN. "Don't you know who I am?" he reportedly asked responding officers. "The Trayvon guy? The threaten-my-wife guy? The hang-out-in-front-of-the-gun-shop guy? This is just, like, my thing."

A Pinellas County Sheriff's deputy was arrested and charged with grand theft after allegedly double-dipping a couple of paychecks by claiming his direct deposit hadn't gone through. Not for nothing, but I think the words "paper trail" appear on page 1 of "Chapter One: Obvious Clues" in the cop-school Year One manual.

SATURDAY, JAN. 10

A horse farm owner and one other person were arrested and charged with felony animal cruelty following an investigation that found several malnourished animals and one that may have died from lack of care. WHY THE LONG FACES GUYS, AMIRITE? No but seriously they should be killed.
