Police Find Stolen A.T.M. in Abandoned Pick-Up Truck
Bad enough that they’re thieves, but littering too? Throw the book at them!
GREENVILLE, S.C. — Greenville police said that an automatic teller machine that was ripped from the ground at a bank in January was found in the back of a truck on Wednesday morning.
Police said that the truck was found parked in a wooded area off Verdae Boulevard just before noon.
Investigators said that the ATM appears to belong to a Wachovia Bank on Woodruff Road that was hit on Jan. 18.
How was this crime scene found you ask? Well according to WYFF it’s a funny story…
Brian Jenkins said he was taking a short when a deer darted in front of his car on Hilton Street.
Jenkins said, “It was a big deer. I hunt, so I stopped and said, ‘I’m going to see where this deer is.’”
Jenkins followed the deer about 80 yards into the woods.
“There were deer bones. It was crazy. Then I could see the back of a truck,” he said.
Jenkins said he hollered for his brother-in-the law and together they approached the truck.
Yeah. Sounds reasonable.

Judy Mae Greer Murders Child to Sleep
Next stop for Judy Greer: Hell.
GREENVILLE, S.C. — Greenville police said that a 2-year-old was girl was shaken to death by a relative on Monday.
Officers were called the Greenville Memorial Hospital Monday morning where a doctor told them that the child, Jakorsha Dodd, had been brought into the emergency room at about 11:15 a.m. non-responsive and in respiratory distress. The doctor said Dodd was treated for injuries consistent with shaken baby syndrome.
Police investigators said they interviewed 51-year-old Judy Mae Greer, a cousin who was in the child’s home caring for the toddler. Greer told police she tried to rock the child to sleep. She said she shook the toddler until she became quiet and still.
Disgusting. Judy Greer is pretty much either the dumbest cretin in South Carolina, or pure evil. Either way, rot in Hell, Judy Mae.

Woman Raped in Greer, Say Deputies
A Greer woman was treated at Spartanburg Regional Hospital Thursday night after being kidnapped and raped by two men, according to Spartanburg County deputies.
Deputies said that the victim said she was walking along Biblebrook Drive toward Sunnyglen Drive when a silver or gray, older-model car pulled up next to her. She said the two men inside the car asked her for directions.
The woman told deputies that when she walked up to the car the men pulled her inside the car. She said that the men drove to a dirt road off of Biblebrook Drive, raped her and then drove back to Biblebrook Drive where they put her out of the car.
The woman walked home and called 911.
The alleged assailants were driving a gray or silver older model, four-door Honda, according to the victim. According to Greenville News staff writer Anna Lee:
The woman told investigators that the men were between 25 and 35 years old. One was wearing a gray sweatshirt and the other a long-sleeved yellow shirt. Both wore black tobaggons.
“Tobaggons”? Since I couldn’t find that word in any mainstream or pop culture dictionary, let’s go with Fox Carolina’s report that the men wore “black stocking caps.” But tuck that away for future reference: “tobaggons” is Greenville News-speak for stocking caps.
Please call Spartanburg Crime Stoppers at 58-CRIME if you have any information about this attack.
