Bush Lied, People Died
Walla Walla, WA (DE) – In a tragic case of life imitating life, eight-year-old Timmy Bush's lie caused both of his parents to die.
"I thought that his parents had done a much better job of raising a truthful boy. Maybe they got what they deserved," Barbara Johnson, Timmy Bush's grandmother said.
The deadly chain of events began when Timmy Bush told his classmates that a clown was going to be at his upcoming birthday party.
"I wanted to know why Timmy was getting a clown at his party, when I only had ponies at my birthday party," Kiley O'Rourke told police.
"When Kiley told us that the Bush boy was getting a clown at his party, we knew something was up. That family is dirt poor white trash. They only have a Mazda and the father is an accountant. We figured that his parents were selling drugs, so we contacted the police." Maria O'Rourke said.
After busting down the door at 3pm, police found Dorothy Bush in the kitchen. She was later pronounced dead at scene. "She wouldn't tell us where the drugs were. Since she was cooking, we knew that she must be on drugs. No one cooks for themselves any more. We thought beating the truth out of her would be effective. We were wrong," officer Joe Sitpac said.
While the police were interrogating his wife, Anthony Bush was being told he had brought shame to his accounting firm.
"Word reached us that Anthony was leading a secret life as a drug dealer. We don't tolerate such behavior at our firm, so we took the only action that was available to us," Fred Sneeds, president of the accounting firm told us.
Anthony Bush was locked in a room with a gun and a typed letter of apology to sign. "We checked in on him after five minutes. He had not signed the letter, but instead, wrote some irrelevant goodbye note to his family. Since he was unable to restore dignity to our company, we were forced to help him pull the trigger," Sneed said.
Timmy Bush has been sent to juvenile detention while it is decided whether or not to press charges against him for his lie. "This is still an ongoing investigation, so we cannot comment any further," officer Sitpac said.
Timmy Bush's lawyer, Julia Arnod, tried to bring his wish of a clown performing at his party come true. "I had a former client who used to perform as a clown, so I brought Timmy to his cell for a two hour party. Unfortunately, Fr. Francis, my former and current client is now facing additional charges of child molestation," Arnod said.
