MONTGOMERY, Ala. - A burglar in Montgomery chose the wrong family to mess with, literally. Adrian and Tiffany McKinnon returned home on Tuesday after a week away to find that thieves had emptied almost everything the family of five owned, Tiffany McKinnon said through tears.
"Tears just rolled down my face as I walked in and saw everything gone and piles of trash all over my home," she said.
Adrian McKinnon sent his wife to see her sister while he inspected the piles left behind. As he walked back into the sunroom, a man walked through the back door straight into him, Tiffany McKinnon told the Montgomery Advertiser in a story Thursday.
"My husband Adrian caught the thief red-handed in our home," she said. "And what is even crazier, the man even had my husband's hat sitting right on his head."
Adrian McKinnon held the suspect, 33-year-old Tajuan Bullock, at gunpoint and told him to sit on the floor until he decided what to do.
"We made this man clean up all the mess he made, piles of stuff, he had thrown out of my drawers and cabinets onto the floor," Tiffany McKinnon said.
When police arrived, Bullock complained about being forced to clean the home at gunpoint.
"This man had the nerve to raise sand about us making him clean up the mess he made in my house," she said. "The police officer laughed at him when he complained and said anybody else would have shot him dead."
Capt. Huey Thornton, a police spokesman, said police arrested Bullock at 2 p.m. Tuesday on burglary and theft charges. He was being held in the Montgomery County Detention Facility on a $30,000 bond.
"The victims were lucky in this case to be able to catch the suspect in the act and hold him until police arrived," Thornton said.
Google Nicholas Stix and “None of That Sheniqua Sh*t” for a different, as in refreshing, take on the whole made up names thing.
Namer ping...
Heh...that’s the first thing I thought as well.
You are a very sick person. Get help...
;^P
Indentured Servitude.
Our Church got caught up in that trap. We sold pumpkins several seasons to make money for our Youth Group. Some teenagers came by one night and destroyed our entire stock.
The cops caught the perps and then gave our Church leaders a sob story of the perps & parents not having any money to pay for the damages. Suggested instead that we use our heart to drop charges and have them work it off by doing our yard work (mowing).
Cops called us two days later and said that that would be Indentured Servitude (Federal Laws) and that the perps would not be responsible for their actions since they (cops) got us to drop charges.
It was only $12K (our cost) worth of pumpkins.
So, nix plan two and go back to plan one?
I say we kill him!
Yeah!
I say we hang him, then we kill him!
Yeah!
I say we scalp him!
Yeah!
Then we tattoo him!
Yeah!
Then we hang him!
Yeah!
And then we kill him!
Yeah!
That sounds like a bunch of crap, actually almost as if you guys got set up.
Calling Girlyman Edwards, there’s a scum client on the phone.
Or one of the perps was the kid of someone special.
Uh-huh.
I’m not one to talk or be a hard-a$$ - did my share of “raising hell” when I grew up (nothing on that scale) but suspect (no, I KNOW) that if I had been properly dressed down at certain points my life would have had a lot less “pain” in the long run.

Another episode of "When 14-Year-Olds Name Their Children".
Write letters to the editor of all the local and close by newspapers about the setup. And that’s what it was, a setup.
Also contact your state AG, “victims” office. The law enforcement officials in your case acted on in bad faith, and should be held accountable.
I couldn’t find anything via “Nicholas Stix” and “sheniqua”, but it sounds great. I have a big problem with the 3-syllables-with-a-k-sound crowd.
It was back in 1999...we don’t sell pumpkins anymore.
Butchered, 10 syllable, apostrophe filled names are common with African Americans now, especially females. The more ludricous sounding, the more difficult it is to pronounce, the better they like it. Its a cultural thing, like formalizing ebonics in a name.
This is what Cosby was talking about... with 70-75% out of wedlock birth rates in the black community we are sliding into oblivion. BTW Ebonix is more political correctness for liberal racism
ie blacks are too stupid to speak proper English
Take another ring round the crapper, ‘fore ya goes...
