Hilarious!

I know I am kind of mean for thinking this is funny, but my goodness - they were mad at this kid because his friends ran off with their drugs. By doing what they did to him they were basically telling him "since you did me wrong, I will get you with my freshly baked cookies!"

See story below!
FOXNews.com - Illinois College Students Accused of Torturing Man With Freshly Baked Cookies - Local News | News Articles | National News | US News


EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. — Two students at Southern Illinois University in this St. Louis suburb kidnapped, paddled and burned a young man with freshly baked cookies after a drug deal went bad, prosecutors alleged.

Madison County prosecutors on Monday charged Rosario James, 23, and Jordan Sallis, 20, each with two counts of aggravated kidnapping and one count of robbery and aggravated battery.

Both were jailed Tuesday on $150,000 apiece.

Sheriff's Capt. Brad Wells said that Friday night, three men went to James' house to buy marijuana, but two of them grabbed the drugs and fled, leaving the third behind. The suspects held that man, who is in his late teens, and told him he needed to find $400 for the drugs, Wells said.

The suspects beat the man with a wooden paddle, burned his neck and shoulders with cookies immediately after taking them from the oven, shaved off some of his hair and poured urine over him from a soda bottle, Wells said.

"Basically, it was just sheer torture," Wells said.

Hours later, Wells said, the victim managed to escape and call police after the suspects drove him to a house in trying to get money for the drugs.

The victim sustained severe bruising but was not hospitalized.

Both suspects were arrested Saturday morning.

Wells said Tuesday there was no evidence that James or Sallis had been using drugs before or during the alleged torture.

"Basically they ripped them off of their drugs, and they took exception to that," Wells said.

A Madison County court clerk said there was no record as of Tuesday that James and Sallis have attorneys.

Sickos. They were all doing something illegal, but come on. This poor kid who was left behind, he may not have even meant to steal the drugs. He was left behind. I hope the rest of them do some serious jail time.

Exactly, his friends were in the wrong. I did find it a bit funny until I realised that it wasn't. I've burned myself on cookies (not on purpose) and it HURTS! Hot chocolate can really sting. I feel sorry for the kid who was left behind. I hope those jerks go to jail & his "friends" get treated in a way they deserve (though I'm not sure what exactly that is).
