Ecard "authors" arrested after moonshine bottle fight

Vendetta Hollow, FL:

Two authors have been charged with domestic violence and assault.

Cindy Crueger and Fran Fremont, both electronically-published authors, were taken into custody yesterday after Bunker Trailer Court residents reported "violent noises" erupting from the mobile home belonging to Crueger's son. Upon response police found Crueger and Fremont engaged in a physical fight on the lawn. After their arrest several empty and shattered bootleg moonshine bottles were found inside the premises.

creating "snarky" ecards.

Authorities have determined that the incident spawned over an argument started some days before between the women when they were trying to decide upon the name for a proposed electronic card design business.

Crueger's attorney says Fremont fired up the debate when she made "snarky" comments via an ecard about Crueger's failed writing career. Fremont's lawyer alleges the same about Crueger, and further contends that Fremont posted artwork at her website, poser artwork that was allegedly created to "mock and deeply wound Ms. Crueger". Because the women have refused to answer questions police are still investigating the online debate and how it started. But Chief Michael Ramsey says such things are negligible considerations in a matter involving the kind of out-of-control violence demonstrated by the pair.

"Its pretty childish if you ask me," Ramsey told sources. "Apparently both women spent a great deal of time cooped up in that trailer designing these e-cards. All the designs are of a vengeful nature, and investigation reveals that the pair posted some online. We suspect they did this in order to retaliate against people they believe are their enemies. They don't appear to have many friends in the world outside the internet, and don't have much else to do with their real families. With all this misdirected anger brewing inside them, I guess it was inevitable they'd turn on each other sooner or later."

A Bunker Hospital spokesperson has confirmed that Cindy Crueger suffered the loss of an eye during the fight, and that Fran Fremont underwent surgery to have both her ears replaced. The spokesperson also acknowledged that both women lost several teeth in the course of breaking moonshine bottles against one another's faces. Ms. Crueger's son and owner of the trailer is currently attending college in another county and will not be charged in the incident. Freddy Crueger did make a brief statement to reporters, "My mother has always been her own worst nightmare."
