NORTH HUNTINGDON, Pa. -- A former Norwin homecoming queen accused of attacking her sister with a prosthetic leg and threatening to burn down a neighbor's trailer was ordered on Wednesday to go to rehab.
Donna Sturkie-Anthony showed up for her preliminary hearing before District Judge Douglas Weimer, but the 41-year-old woman's hearing was continued so she can go to Greenbriar Treatment Center.
Police said Sturkie-Anthony's sister came to visit her at Lincoln Mobile Home Park on Route 30 in January, and the two started arguing about her alcohol abuse. Then, police said Sturkie-Anthony pulled off her sister's prosthetic leg and beat her with it.
In that case, Sturkie-Anthony was charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, recklessly endangering another person and harassment.
About three weeks later, police said, Anthony stole her neighbor's telephone and then threatened to burn down their trailer if they testified against her.
She faces charges of intimidation of witnesses or victims and terroristic threats in the case involving her neighbors.
"The police, they call for backup when they come up here to deal with her," said another neighbor, who asked not to be identified. "They know who she is."
Sturkie-Anthony was being held without bond in the Westmoreland County Prison. Police said it's because she is a danger to others and herself.
Who knows if she trades on that . . could be just media tweaking . Take the homecoming angle out and its just another drunk in a trailer.
Yeah dat.

Thanks but no thanks. I don't feel like watching her slide show. And besides, she may have been beautiful inside! :)

There’s a CW song in here somewhere.

Homecoming Queen? Mr. Headline Writer Dude... Let it go.
This is the queen of my double wide trailer
With the polyester curtains and the redwood deck
Sometimes shes runs and I've got to trail her
Dang her black heart and her pretty red neck...
My ex-husband’s grandmother used to take her prosthetic leg off and threaten to beat the kids with it. She was one mean senile old bat, LOL!
She’s 41, and her sister still calls her lazy. All the folks ‘round Huntingdon calls her crazy.
Cause she walks around the trailer park with a fake leg in her hands.
Talking on a mysterious neighbor’s phone.
Delta Donna, what’s that hair do you have on?
Could it be a faded style from years gone by?
And did I hear you say, you’d be buyin’ fuel today,
To burn your neighbor’s trailer to the ground?
"I hear that train a-coming'
My chance for freedom's slim,
Cause that night I beat my sister
With her own prosthetic limb
I know'd I shoud'na been drinkin'
And now I'm sad and blue
Wishin' I was back in our double-wide
Doin' hard time with you..."

Here’s one you might enjoy...
I love that song. It’s so country.
Well, a few nights later I run into her
With some stranger on a park bench.
She says he rebuilds engines and his name is Earl.
He’s the Charlie Daniels of the torque wrench.
I whispered, “Honey, let’s just go on home,
And have some onion rings and watch TV.”
Fugilty.
Why did they send the trailer to rehab?
Cuz they was runnin’ outta room. Fast.
Good question. I thought she beat her in the trailer with the leg. I don’t know about you but my trailer aches for days when it gets beat.
Donna Sturkie? Donna Sturkie...... did she serve in Viet nam?...No that was kerry.
Oh yeah... she was home coming queen.
