Ugh. A Dumb Iowa Criminal Made National News Again

There's so many great things in Iowa. We have beautiful fields, rolling hills, three great sate colleges and other wonderful private one's too, like Wartburg and Luther... But, we also have our share of dumb and kinda scary criminals. No, I'm not talking about the biggest of all scary criminals, John Wayne Gacy, I'm talking about one that we can (kinda) laugh at.

FOX 23 out of Tulsa, Oklahoma picked up the story about a methy-looking criminal named Jeromy Anderson who stands accused of chasing the woman through a casino in Davenport on Easter Sunday with an axe. Yes, an axe. Now, luckily the victim was uninjured and, she requested an order of protection against the 43-year old Anderson.

No worries about him doing this again. Well, for now anyway. Anderson has been charged with a felony, along with misdemeanor counts of carrying a weapon, disorderly conduct, domestic abuse, going armed with intent, and also having more hair on his face than his head. Okay, that I made up but, he looks like he should get a felony for that fascial hair.

(See, axes are GREAT for wood! Not for casinos. This axe is NOT the one used in the alleged assault. It's just a picture. Of an axe... being used for what axes are intended to be used for.)

This all went down at the Rhythm City Casino. Anderson's bond has been set at $8,000, which means he'll be in jail for a while. That is, unless he did REALLY well playing the slots before he went nuts with that axe.
