Yes, this is a real story, not something that was in The Onion:
Sheriff's officials were astounded Thursday by a letter requesting the man accused of murdering his girlfriend and possibly participating in cannibalism be placed on a vegetarian diet to keep him from being "involved in any senseless killing" while incarcerated.
The letter was faxed to the Smith County Sheriff's Jail from the national headquarters of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals Thursday morning.
PETA now goes to the head of the "beyond parody" line.

I dunno....In Maricopa County, AZ, Sheriff Arpaio allows the guard dogs to eat BETTER than the inmates (save a bundle for the taxpayers too)...want a brown cheese and green bologne sandwich to go with that PINK jumpsuit?
