A Special Corner of Hell.....

There has to be a special corner of hell for people who scam off of other people's losses.

I've seen some ugly ones around our fallen warriors and their families. This is the latest - news release from the Oregon National Guard....

The family of Cpl. Kory Wiens has discovered more than one local business in Dallas, Ore. was contacted yesterday by someone asking for monetary donations on their behalf. An individual unknown to the Wiens family has made telephone calls asking for assistance with burial costs for Kory's search dog, Cooper.

The alleged fraudulant activity has been reported to the Charitable Organizations Section of the Oregon Attorney General's Office for a preliminary investigation.

The family is not requesting monetary assistance with Cooper's burial. As a member of an Army unit, Cooper will be rendered proper military funeral honors.

I truly hope that they catch this piece of slime...
