Boston Blotter: Anything but the Manolos!

--A Cambridge man got revenge on an ex by slashing 30 pairs of her shoes last weekend. Not being Carrie Bradshaw types, we're surprised that anyone would have 30 pairs of shoes, period. The story also notes that he went after the shoes with a kitchen knife, which indicates that he must have taken his own sweet time sawing them up.

The unnamed individual now faces charges of "breaking and entering, witness intimidation, malicious destruction of property, stalking, and threats to kill." He now joins the yoga studio foot fetishist in the Cambridge Foot Freak Hall of Shame.

--We usually mind our own backyard, but sometimes a crime so weird happens in the backyards of our New England neighbors that it must be mentioned. In New Hampshire, someone left the decapitated head of a pig in a person's driveway last Friday. The police think it was meant for an officer who lived next door to the house, but apparently the pig-decapitator couldn't even get that detail right. Wilbur the pig could not be reached for comment. He is probably pissed.

--Alan "Bubba" Daughtry, also known as the "Bonbon Bandit," kept the Blotter running on pure sugar for months while he raided sweet shoppes all over town. Now, the DA's Office announced that Daughtry is facing a life sentence as a repeat offender.
