Renae Rasmussen of Okaloosa County, Florida, was arrested for drowning her roommates spider. I'm not joking. This is a real story.
And before we get all judgmental about this heinous crime, I think we should remember the heart of our Lord in this matter.
Let the one who has not killed a spider, throw the first stone.
... No one?
Here's the very brief scoop:
An Okaloosa County woman was arrested Monday after she allegedly drowned her roommate's pet spider, according to the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office.
I'll just say it: The fewer spiders there are in the world, the better.
Of course, there are some other details in the case that might be worth considering:
It was her roommate's pet jumping spider
This was a $70 spider.
Rasmussen admitted to submerging the spider in ginger ale until it died.
Okay, that last point is a little psycho.
For using ginger ale as a deadly weapon, Rasmussen was charged with misdemeanor animal cruelty and petty theft.
And now ginger ale will just never taste the same.
