The sludge keeps flowing

What is this, dirtbag-o’-the-day?

We have the Fort Hood horror. We have the mastermind of the D.C. sniper attacks finally getting the needle. Now we have more lurid revelations about the Cleveland serial killer.

Sort of makes you nostalgic for Balloon Boy or Jon & Kate.

The Cleveland killer, Anthony Sowell, murdered at least 11 women and buried them in and around his home. The key words there are “at least.”

The toll is still being added up as bodies – and parts of bodies – are being found.

The latest development is that the stench around his home is growing stronger, which of course suggests more secrets remain to be uncovered.

And the cops are just starting to look into the abandoned house next door, which may hold other surprises.

Ick.

No telling how this one will play out.

But when Doctor Death from Fort Hood recovers from his wounds, the feds ought to stick him in the same cell with the creep from Cleveland.

That ought to make both guests of the taxpayers keep one eye open at night.

And if one of ’em tries to practice his specialty on the other, well, that’s the way the scales of justice tilt sometime.
