G-ville woman shoots 600-pound boyfriend (MS)

DDT (Delta Democrat Times) ^ | 1/10/05 | AMY REDWINE

[Mr. Mojo]

Jennie Jones told police that she shot her boyfriend, but for now, he is the one who will face charges.

Jones said she shot her boyfriend, Sharka Corbin, twice Sunday after he beat her inside her home at 735 S. Washington Ave. According to police, Corbin weighs about 600 pounds.

Jones was transported to Delta Regional Medical Center for severe swelling to the face and her right eye was swollen.

Jones said Corbin beat her up after he learned that she got a traffic ticket in Arkansas and that her car had been towed. She said he put the gun to her head and said, "I am going to kill you." But instead of shooting her he put the gun on the dresser and then began hitting her, according to reports.

Jones was able to get the gun and fired several shots at Corbin. Two of the bullets hit Corbin, one in the leg and one in the chest.

Corbin is charged with domestic assault with medical attention. The case against Jones will be sent to the District Attorney office for possible grand jury review.

Please don't ever say anything like that again. Now I need to use mental floss.

I'm going to bed. Hope I don't have nightmares.

[Technical Editor]

She didn't shoot him, she was shooting in the other direction; his gravitational pull drew the bullet to him.

What has to go on inside your head to be the girlfriend of a 600 pound man who beats you?

I'm betting that this girl is no lightweight herself. She is probably hefty enough that running away is problematic.

[Blue Collar Christian]

Is this another .50 cal thread?

[expatguy]

But just imagine for a moment, the mental images and the emotional rollercoaster ride you would experience by watching that. Feeling amused, disgusted and yet peculiarly aroused all at the same time.

I bet its like watching a train wreck.

Ewwww. Nevermind forget the whole thing. Im sorry.

I think I need mental floss now as well.

He weighed 600 pounds and his name was Sharka?

<Seinfeld>

You know, when you name a kid SHARK-a, you're pretty much locking in his future.

BTW, does anyone know where Michale Moore is right now?

Just what I was thinking! Is it "whale season" yet?

[Petronski]

[roars of laughter]

[blondee123]

I wonder how much you have to eat to maintain weight like that.

Michael Moore could tell you! Bwahaahaa!

[Darkwolf377]

I know. I'm deeply ashamed of myself. Cough.

Missippy ping!


WKB, you'll like this one. ;o)

A man that heavy will have a huge fat pad completely engulfing any of his male "equipment," which will appear to be a dimple, like a second navel, and which will stink to high heaven.

Is it hard to um.. keep clean or something? I dont understand why it would stink.

[rdl6989]

Yuk! I've had my daily gross-out for the next month. LOL

[MississippiMan]

Hard to believe there's someone out there who can't outrun a 600-pounder.

Greenville: Such a Southern pearl. Not.

MM

[expatguy]

Im serious. I read a lot about huge fat people and Im just wondering what their daily diet consists off.

[spinestein]

HAAAAAA HAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAA!!!!

"Gravitational Pull!!!"

HAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

[rdl6989]

Trying to shoot a 600 lb. man would be like bringing down a bear or something.
