You all remember my crazy, monkey-smuggling client, right? no? well, go here and read the previous post then.

Anyway, she and her daughter have been convincted and sentenced. And I just wanted to point out a couple of things....

1: "During the trip home, Ogren sent an e-mail to “NE Washington Witches and Pagans” at a Yahoo account and asked “for last-minute energy” to help them safely smuggle the monkey into the United States." Well. I tend not to assume things about people's religions, but... really? a mass email to a witchery group asking for energy to help break a handful of laws? And people wonder why pagans get a reputation for being untrustworthy?

2: "The monkey caper ended the day after Christmas last year when Pratt and Lawson visited the Fashion Bug store in north Spokane and told a clerk how the monkey was smuggled into the United States. That clerk called federal agents, who opened the investigation." Okay, so she's crazy AND stupid--crap, any 4 year old knows you don't commit a felony and then brag about it to random strangers. Fuck.

Also, given this woman's fanatic anti-government-ism, I think the concept of being "under court supervision for three years" will chafe her intolerably. (Yay!)

That I have crazy/weird clients. This woman is one of them:

This is, by the way, the woman who wanted me to remove microchips from her dogs. Who is adamantly (fanatically, even) opposed to the National Animal Identification System.
As Dr S says "Gee, no wonder she's opposed to animal identification!"



This woman is another:
