Let's hear it for Marion County prosecutors -- they're keeping even Minnesota politics safe:
Jonathon “The Impaler” Sharkey, 41, of Princeton was arrested Monday night on two felony counts from Indiana, said Mike Smith, the Mille Lacs County jail administrator. One warrant was for escape, another for stalking.
Sharkey launched his campaign last month under the banner of the Vampyres, Witches and Pagans party. His platform includes an emphasis on education, tax breaks for farmers and better benefits for veterans, but he also said he favored impaling certain wrongdoers in front of the State Capitol.
Too bad Minnesotans won't get to hear the impaling debate, though. True innovations in crime fighting are hard to come by.
