The man accused of attacking "Pinky" the Flamingo at Busch Gardens back in 2016 was hit and killed by a truck while crossing the street in Orlando earlier this month.
Joseph Corrao was walking northbound from the eastbound right shoulder onto State Road 50 from Story Partin Rd. in Orlando when he was hit by a Ford F150 pickup truck. The accident happened on June 5.
He died of his injuries at the hospital. The driver has not been charged at this time.
Corrao had initially been deemed not competent to stand trial, but earlier this year was ruled competent and had a trial coming up in August.
In the original incident, Corrao was visiting the park with his family. Police say he reached into an animal pen in the Jambo Junction area, picked up Pinky the flamingo and threw her to the ground with enough force to nearly sever her foot.
Pinky later had to be euthanized due to the severity of her injuries.
I know it’s wrong, but I don’t feel very sorry for this guy.
Well it’s clear to me.
Pinky’s mob put a contract out on this guy. Corrao should have never crossed the Flamingo Mobsters.
Notice the shape of his head! It’s just like Jerry Waddler’s. There is simply no room for much of a brain. Just hope Jerry goes for a walk and takes a lethal hit from another F-150! I’d open the best botlle of wine I had if I read that Jerry ended up the hood ornament on a pickup.
A Ford F150 got him.
LOL - I was thinking the same thing!
They’re a tough outfit down there.

Don't let others inflict their notion of "empathy" on you.
There are over 7.7 billion people on this planet, and the number is rising by over a thousand, every minute. Half are them are too stupid to be allowed to live, and yet...
I know it’s wrong, but I don’t feel very sorry for this guy.

I just hope the F150 is OK.
Good riddance.
There is no such thing as an animal abuser who is fit to live, or even die painlessly.
Florida Man strikes again.
Florida man is dead? Oh no!
Instant Karma................or Truckma..............
The Flamingo’s home is 70 miles away with clipped wings.

I hope it’s not half! I’ve been telling my kids when they watch the news that the world isn’t bad - that 99% of people are good. I do add the caveat that that means 77 million (1%) are not good. Maybe 99% is too high though.
Pinky’s revenge ...
Just balancing the cosmic scale of justice.
