Queen Anne Man Tries To Sacrifice Girlfriend

Silly Queen Anne resident: girlfriends are for loving and fun-having, not for sacrificing. And human sacrifice is so 1999 BCE, anyway. Sounds like one Oumar Lam got way too carried away with bloodlust and tried to offer up his girlfriend's body as a sacrifice to an unspecified deity this weekend. Allegedly--kind of a ridiculous caveat given that the girlfriend received emergency surgery for knife wounds--Lam tried to slit her throat and stabbed her multiple times while under the influence of some kind of religious fervor. Thank God (hah!) she's okay. The man has been charged with first-degree assault. Anyone else thinking there must have been serious drug use involved?

I almost sent this in as a tip, but I then I remembered about our ESP.

I don't think it has anything to do with drugs, but the underground surge for Mayan deity dance halls.
