Pensioner finds burglar with testicles impaled on broken window

A pensioner found a burglar with his testicles impaled on a broken window in her bathroom.

When the man screamed he was dying, Joyce Edwards replied: "Good."

The 80-year-old had been woken by noises from the bathroom of her home in Crowthorne, Berkshire.

When she went to check, she saw the man dangling on shards of glass in his groin, says The Sun.

She said: "He cried out to me, "I'm dying, please help me". But I was so cross I shouted back "Good" and ran out of the house."

The pensioner alerted neighbours who called police and an ambulance. It's believed the man may have lost four pints of blood.

He was treated in hospital, but medics refused to say whether he had lost either of his testicles.

A 35-year-old man from Finchampstead, Berkshire, was later arrested and charged.

To quote the esteemed mhking: Just damn.

P.S. I always put all my truly salacious and/or disgusting stuff in white text.

Any 35 year old child of God that breaks into my home is most likely going to be blasted by a 12 guage

Fair enough, but if he's gravely hurt, pleading for his life, I expect you to help.

Don't laugh, she most likely will be sued, and lose.

No, this story didn't occur in America where the criminal has more rights than the victim and lawsuits are out of control.

It occured in Britain where I beleive things are different.

Not the god incarnated in Jesus, who was forever telling people to forgive. He didn't want justice but mercy

Not sure where you got that idea.

And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?
Luke 18:7

God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you
2 Thessalonians 1:6

Justice is very importent to God.

If they go to court, the lady will get off on some legal testicacality.

Do you mean you doubt the evidence will stand up in court?

"if he's gravely hurt, pleading for his life, I expect you to help"


She DID help him. She ran and called the cops, who got medical attention for the piece of garbage. She didn't just leave him there to die. What did you expect her to do, hoist him up out of her windowframe with her 80-year-old supergranny strength? Suture up his shredded privates with her crochet kit? Sheesh!

Sometimes justice is the most merciful thing you can provide for people...

I image his balls WILL be in court...

"Your Honor, I direct you to Exhibit A and Exhibit B."




You mean: "Your Honor, I direct you to Exhibit A and what's left of Exhibit B."

Nothing like a good gonad injury story to bring out the juvenile in us.
