Woman Arrested for Hurling Raw Meat at PoliceThe meat-thrower said God told her to pelt police with bacon
A young woman was arrested Friday for throwing raw meat at police officers in Boston, and she has responded to the charges by claiming God made her do it.
According to Gawker, 24-year-old Lindsay McNamara allegedly entered the Framingham police station Friday with a Dunkin Donuts box and told the officer at the front desk that she was there to feed the pigs, before hurling the box--which was full of raw bacon and sausage--at the desk.
The front desk was behind bulletproof glass, so McNamara failed to hit anyone with her box of raw meat. Finding herself thwarted, McNamara just smeared the meat over the window until someone came out to arrest her.
McNamara allegedly told police, God told me to go feed the pigs.

(589 posts)3. The irony wasn't lost on me but I watched the video
of her in court and I'm glad the judge decided to have her evaluated before any sentencing .
Her parents also made a statement where they know she needs help.
