Greetings fellow Bizarros:

It should surprise no one that the following story comes from down south. Now we all know that the holidays can be stressful.

We all deal with it in different ways. Martin Luther Jackson, 31, of Decatur, Georgia dealt with his stress by trying to stuff his wife in the oven...in front of their five kids.

Jackson has been charged with aggravated assault, aggravated battery, cruelty to children and possession of marijuana (big surprise there).

Jackson and his 29-year-old wife, who have been separated since July, apparently started fighting after she and the children returned to their Conyers home.

At one point during the fight, Jackson allegedly attempted to stuff his wife inside the kitchen oven, which had been left on to heat the house. The woman escaped and went to the sheriff's office with visible head injuries.

Investigators found Jackson hiding under a bed at his mother's house in Decatur, where he had been living since the separation. Big mistake. Under the bed is always the first place they look.

Bizarrely,
Lewis

*-- Man let 9-year-old girl drive van --*
DETROIT - A Detroit man pleaded guilty Monday to felony child abuse after letting his 9-year-old daughter drive his van when he was intoxicated, officials say. Shawn Weimer pleaded guilty to charges of second-degree child abuse and allowing an unlicensed minor to operate a motor vehicle in Wayne County Circuit Court. As a part of a plea agreement, a misdemeanor child abuse charge was dropped, The Detroit News said. Gas station surveillance video showed his daughter pulling up to a gas station early on the morning of Oct. 8. Inside the store, the camera picked up Weimer telling the clerk that his daughter was his designated driver. Police stopped the two shortly after the girl pulled the van out of the gas station. "I plan on never drinking again in my life," Weimer told the Detroit Free Press. "I'm fully committed to sobriety and getting my daughter back in my life." Weimer will receive probation instead of jail time, and must continue to wear an alcohol-monitoring tether. Since the incident, he has been attending Alcoholics Anonymous and parenting classes.

*-- Swedish woman kept corpse in living room --*
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A 52-year-old woman was arrested in Sweden for keeping a decomposing body on her couch for several months, authorities said. Neighbors believe the woman to be mentally ill. "She can't really take care of herself," one neighbor told The Local. "Sometimes she puts on the war paint and then you know she is really bad. Then I tend to make a call, so she gets brought in and gets help." The dead body was that of a 67-year-old man, reported missing in September, the newspaper said. The woman was contacted early on in the investigation because she was an acquaintance of the man, however she denied knowing anything about his disappearance. When she was contacted for a second round of questioning, police found the man's body in an advanced state of decay in the woman's living room. She was arrested, but released after the preliminary results of an autopsy came in. The woman is not believed to be responsible for the man's death. "This is probably not a murder," said Lars Lundin of the South Stockholm police. "The woman is sick and it is just very tragic."
