They Get My Vote For Slimeballs of the Year: Michigan Couple Taunts Dying Little Girl Next Door with Grim Reapers, Crossbones & Coffins.


What a couple of sick scumwads. The linked story reports on the heartbreaking story of 7-year-old Kathleen Edward (pictured on the left) of Trenton, Michigan. She's in the final stages of what's described as Huntington's Disease, a degenerative brain disorder. The same condition killed Kathleen's mother, Laura, when she was 24 years old.

How can things get any more tragic than that for one family? Well, one way is when you have a couple of sleazebucket neighbors named Jennifer and Scott Petkov. It's reported that the Petkovs have been peeved at Kathleen's family ever since a birthday party at Kathleen's house two years ago. It seems that Jennifer Petkov's kids were not invited, but (after the party had started) she texted Kathleen's family and asked if the Petkov kids could come on over. As one of the linked stories reports, "a response to the text did not come quickly enough and it angered Jennifer." Kathleen's family says that Jennifer Petkov has "been harassing them ever since" (with husband Scott also getting in on the act).

"Harassment" is putting it mildly. As Kathleen's terminal condition worsened, the Petkovs saw fit to start taunting the dying little girl: The Petkovs "have . . . admitted to posting grim depictions of Laura and Kathleen on Facebook. One photo depicts Laura in the arms of the grim reaper, while the other features Kathleen's face above a set of crossbones." When Jennifer Petkov was asked why she and her husband posted the vile photos on Facebook, Jennifer said it was for her own "personal satisfaction" and because she knew it would upset the family. Nice lady.

And just for good measure, it's reported that the Petkovs also built and hitched up a coffin to their pick-up truck in their front yard. But apparently even that wasn't enough for these two bullying slimes. They then took to driving the coffin past Kathleen's house and honking the horn so that Kathleen would be sure to see the morbid sight.

All this over sour grapes because little sonny and sweet baby jane didn't get invited over to Kathleen's for the birthday party! I just hope there's a special Coffin Corner section of Hell for the Petkovs and people like them. They deserve their own "Special Section," as they say.
