You Can't Make This Stuff Up

Heard about this story early this morning on KFI while driving to the dealer for an oil change and check-up. The name of the town in question is Epping, New Hampshire. A slight freudian slip can make this story even more hilarious:

Massachusetts man pleads quilty in "Ken and Barbie' case

EPPING - A man with a girlfriend named Barbie has pleaded guilty to stabbing a man named Ken after someone made an offhand remark about "Ken and Barbie" during an Epping house party.

Ryan Mainey, 21, of Charlestown, Mass., is alleged to have stabbed brothers Adam Cassell, 20, and Ken Cassell, 21. Adam Cassell was stabbed in the shin, while his older brother was stabbed in the chest and thigh. Police said Ken Cassell sustained a deep puncture wound in his chest that just missed his vital organs. He was taken to Exeter Hospital, where he received internal and external stitches.

Mainey entered his guilty pleas in Rockingham County Superior Court to two counts of first-degree assault and one count of second-degree assault, stemming from the August 2002 incident in Epping. He is scheduled to be sentenced at 9 a.m. on Jan. 28, 2004, at the Superior Court in Brentwood.

The pleas resulted from an agreement between Mainey’s lawyer, Joseph Caulfield, and Assistant County Attorney Kirsten Wilson. The two sides agreed to a maximum sentence cap on the charges, but the exact sentence will be handed down by a judge at the January hearing.

According to court documents, Mainey will not receive more than 12 months in jail and 2½ years of probation on each of the first-degree assault charges. On the second-degree assault charge, Mainey will be sentenced in the range of two to four years in prison, with that sentence suspended.

The Probation Department is completing a pre-sentencing investigation report and will present its recommendations at the hearing in January, court documents state.

The alleged stabbing of the two brothers took place at 6:30 a.m. after an all-night drinking party at an Epping home on Beniah Lane, police said. The party was hosted by the 20-year-old son of the homeowners, who was staying at the house until he went back to college in Massachusetts.

Police found a keg of beer and hard liquor at the house.

The homeowners and their two daughters were away camping for the weekend and had no idea that a party was held at their house, according to Epping Police Sgt. Jason Newman.

Mainey and his girlfriend, Barbara, whose nickname is Barbie, knew someone who was going to the party and went along, police said. Just before 6:30 a.m., someone made a statement about "Ken and Barbie," after allegedly seeing Barbie sheets in the homeowners’ daughter’s bedroom, which led to a fight with about five to six people. A wall in the bedroom ended up with a hole in it as a result of the fight.

Adam Cassell was the first one stabbed, police said. The fracas ended up in the kitchen of the home, where Mainey allegedly stabbed Ken Cassell twice. In addition to blood found in the kitchen, a large dent was made in the stainless steel refrigerator, police said.

When Epping police arrived at the home, Ken Cassell was lying on the kitchen floor in a pool of blood. Mainey and Barbie had fled the party, police said.

Witnesses were able to identify Mainey as the person who allegedly stabbed the two brothers. Epping police worked with Boston police to locate Mainey, who told police in Boston he had acted in self-defense, according to Epping Police Detective Marc Turner.


Good grief.... :S
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

OK, so what would the freudian slip be?
I'm feeling thick this afternoon



Well, when I heard it on the radio, it sounded like he was pronouncing the town with a "ph" sound...or "effing". I knew something was incorrect, just couldn't put my finger on it until I looked up the story. :P Barbie and Ken, in an "effing" party. Ken get's stabbed...effing stabbed... blah blah... I guess it's not that apparent. :S;)

I thaough that was what it was, I was just hoping that I missed something more ironic.
Irony is the spice of life.
