Never been in trouble before?  Well, until the first time.  Most people don't involve monkeys though.

This headline should have a large number of _________ to indicate that we can fill in the headline!

My choice is:  "likes to beat off in the zoo bathrooms"

She said police also found other animals inside the home, including birds, cats and possibly chickens.

Seems like the guy liked animals (if it's him). Also sounds like the kid who took a deadly snake from the National Zoo way back when. Had a fascination with animals....but little idea of the implications of taking or trying to care for them.

The kid is now probably in his late '50s....

"He did not do what they saying he did," he said in a text, adding that Irvin is a good kid.
He said police were trying to pin the case on Irvin when Irvin had "never been in any trouble."


Well the online and publicly available Dallas County Felony and Misdemeanor Courts Case Information system would beg to differ.

Monkey looks like a Dr Seuss character

A man who identified himself as a family friend - and who was listed as Irvin's potential relative in public records - told The Dallas Morning News that Irvin was innocent.

Who farking cares?
Why even include that in the article?
How is that of any relevance at all?

Police are so smart, they are only sort-of confident that they can recognize a chicken?
