Thirty-seven-year-old Tina Marie Garrison and Junior Lee Dillon,
both of Preston, were charged last month with receiving stolen property
and theft. They allegedly gave the feet to local townships that offer
rewards as they try to limit the gopher population.
Garrison has pleaded not guilty. Her son has a hearing next month.
The complaint says a gopher trapper reported to authorities that bags
of feet were stolen from his freezer. According to the complaint, the
owner found Dillon had turned in $1,014 in feet in November. In
December, Garrison turned in $3,780 in feet.The Post-Bulletin (http://bit.ly/1299xC8) reports Dillon denied turning in any feet for the bounty.

The things people come up with, honestly.
I'm only half surprised.
I've reported on a lot of strange heists and I'm still thinking of numbering them like I do my Walmart Madness posts. :)
pray tell, what doth one do with gopher feet?
One can make a really tasty gopher foot stew with them. :)
Or one can turn them in for a bounty, gophers are pretty destructive when they spread unchecked in a city or suburb.
People are pretty destructive they spread unchecked too!
I agree Joanne. I wish a bounty on their feet would be implemented.
