Family offer reward for basket defecator

NorthCoastNOW

CAMDEN TWP. — The family that found a Longaberger basket full of feces and urine in their living room Sunday morning is offering a reward to find out who’s responsible.

The family, who wishes to remain anonymous, said it is offering $1,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the culprit.

The family left its Gore Orphanage Road home around 6 p.m. Saturday to attend a local function and returned about 10:45 p.m. They went straight to bed, and the next morning were awakened bright and early by their 8-year-old son, who found his mother’s Longaberger basket full of feces and urine.

“We’re very upset about this, very upset,” an anonymous family member said. “It’s a birthday my son will never forget.”

The basket, which was ruined, was worth about $200 and was filled with 15 Nintendo DS games valued at $30 to $40 each, the report said.

Nothing appeared to be stolen, but the homeowners found that their bills had been sifted through.

“I feel violated,” the family member said. “When I walk in my home, I don’t even know what I’m going to walk into.”

    What a terrible thing to happen to this family. I hope they catch the culprit. Shame on you, banker, for such an insensitive comment. How would you like it if this happened to you and your family?

  3. PuterPaws - this is the kind of story that the county sheriff calls “violent crime”, and its on the rise!!!

    yes, it’s nasty, but it’s a prank. The lorain county sheriff’’s department will treat this “prank” like a felony !!!

    Pranks aren’t pranks any more.
