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.
Sung to the tune of “Stuck in Folsom Prison” those words are perfect!
Now if you could work in a reference to FR, and the word GUITLY.... :)
I recall offering to beat the BRAKES off your trailer.
I also recall being turned down.
:^(
ROFLMAO!! That’s great.

I know it's not totally related to the story, but it is funny!
Damn, I walked right into that one.
Hope all is well with you!
Are these are the kind of Pennsylvania Hillary voters that Obama is having so much trouble winning over? ;)
Thanks! I didn’t think anybody remembered Delta Dawn.
I heard someone describe Pennsylvania as “Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and everything in between is Alabama”. There’s a lot of truth in that.
Getting beat with your own wooden leg is getting close to the final insult.
My God, has Sheri O’Teri fallen.... /sarc
"Tard" refers to the ping list members and not to the subject of the thread!
List of Ping Lists
I just noticed, the name of the journalist isn’t listed here. Any chance this is a guy from her class who finally got a chance (after 20-some years) to strike back for all those wedgies, rumors, and lonely nights? You know the type. There’s one in every class. You still laugh when you think of him. But a certain washed-up 41 year old former homecoming queen isn’t laughing today, IS SHE?
Why oh why, are they smiling?
I have a feeling it may have been a girl from her class.
Check out slide #5 and notice the girl on the far right. She has that “I’ll get even some day” look.

Homecoming queen where? “Hooten Hollar”?
Okay. But read my tagline. If I’m not back today, you’ll know why. Just don’t tell my high school sweetheart. He thinks I’m Mrs. Gates.
Now if you could work in a reference to FR, and the word GUITLY.... :)
Now somewhere on the Internet
There's Jokesters crackin' wise
I know that I am Guilty
But can't ya sympathize
I'm poor white trash and homely
And low as low can be
So I'm beggin' all you FReepers
Leave me my dignity!
