Ozzy so angry, he could bite a bat's head off?

Sheriff takes a bite out of crime.

"Instead of holding a press conference to pat himself on the back, Sheriff Laney should be apologizing to me for using my name in connection with these arrests,"

This can't be right - there are too many words in this sentence for Ozzie to have uttered it without losing his trend of thought.

[Young Werther]

To quote my Dak Mother in Law

Uff Dah!

Nah, he'll probably snort another line of red ants.

[NormsRevenge]

Ouch, that’s got to sting..

[JennysCool]

Gotta go with Ozzy on this one. The sheriff was using his identity under false pretenses. I don’t think that’s legal, let alone ethical.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

"Osbourne claims his reputation was tarnished..."

That's a good one!

I agree, I heard on the local news here that one of the guy’s girlfriend drove 200 miles to attend the party. When she found out it was a fraud, she wanted to be reinbursed for her expenses. They refused.

[wardaddy]

I agree.

[Lancey Howard]

I agree with you. On the other hand, if the sheriff had used Pat Boone’s name, how many of these criminals would have showed up?

[Lawgvr1955]

Seems like a lot of work that had a success rate of 6% (30 out of 500) and accounted for 1% of the outstanding warrants.

Don't know if I would brag to the media about the great job. But what the hey.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

Is the pregnant girl in the source, the one who drove 200 miles?

She better not drive much more as she looks to be near term.

[Pro-Bush]

I agree, that’s messed up.

[spunkets]

"Ozzy Osbourne wants an apology from the Cass County sheriff for staging a sting operation in the rocker's name without his permission."

Hey Ozzie. Use your money and sue the sheriff to provide reembursement to all those people he suckered out of a good evening, by fraud and deception. Now go do the right thing and motivate the good people of Cass Co to get rid of this inconsiderate jackass.

if the sheriff had used Pat Boone’s name, how many of these criminals would have showed up?

PAT BOONE IS PLAYING?!?!?!...Honey..quit counting our money from the bank robbery and lets put on our masks and party with Pat!! YEEHAAA!!!!!!!!!

[jwh_Denver]

You’ll make more money with writing a book; “Partying Down with Pat Boone and Tequila!!” Robbing banks is so 30’s.

ROTFLOL

Ozzy is a real nut case. I would be pleased as punch if my name could take a few criminals off the streets.

You gotta think in terms of bang for the buck. So they send out 500 form letters to the fugitives' last known addresses, rent out an unused space, set up some cops there, and then just sit and wait for a few hours while the criminals come to them. It probably worked out to less than a hundred bucks a collar.

[Doohickey]

Those quotes can’t be Ozzy’s. There is no way he could put together a sentence that long without stuttering.
