Another addition to the Unhinged mugshot gallery
My Unhinged mugshot gallery just keeps growing! Hope your family dinner doesn’t look like this (via JWF):
The Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office is investigating a politically motivated stabbing that left one in-law hospitalized and another in prison.
Authorities said brother-in-laws Jose Ortiz and Sean Shurelds were involved in a verbal altercation over Democratic presidential hopefuls Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton when the argument escalated into a stabbing inside their family home on Honey Locust Court in Collegeville.
Authorities said Ortiz, a registered Republican and Clinton supporter, allegedly stabbed Shurelds, an Obama supporter, in the stomach. Ortiz told police Shurelds began to choke him, so he grabbed a knife and stabbed him.
“Their verbal argument turned physical, one began choking the other, and then the victim of the choking took a kitchen knife and stabbed his brother-in-law in the stomach,” Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Veti Ferman said.
Remind me to send a copy of Unhinged to the clueless D.A.:
“It is a very serious charge, we see people fight over many things; some of them very frivolous, some of them serious, the fact of the matter is that this is the kind of argument that takes place in households across the region, across the state, across the country, but it never turns violent like this,” Ferman said.
Reality check on aisle 9.

Hmmm: “…a registered Republican and Clinton supporter.”
That’s not adding up, eh?

Registered Republican voting for HIllary? Now I know they’re nuts.
I don’t know a D.A. that would ever make such a conclusive statement on domestic violence that “it never turns violent like this.”
He does not need to be practicing law, let alone prosecuting. Geez!
When the rest of the family was ask “they commented we did not mlike the brother in law anyways.”
How absurd can you get. Physical attacking each other over a couple of left wing ideologs. To say that the one is a republican just gives more credence to my statments that this country has moved to the left and does not know the differance between conservative and moderate. RINOs have taken on the persona of being conservative, example McCain.
we mostly used to fight over food like who got the last piece of chicken or steak,, but stab yur bro over politics, what a shame.
Yes is does…..like Ann Coulter!
I’ve seen better looking heads on an iodine bottle.
It doesn’t say whether the Obama supporter was registered for either party. Heh - he probably isn’t registered at all.
Seems SHE has been a prosecutor since 1993 and….
In 2003 the Montgomery Bar Foundation honored Risa Ferman with the Louis D. Stefan law enforcement award for her role in the creation of the Montgomery Child Advocacy Project. As a prosecutor, Risa supervises over 12,000 adult and juvenile cases annually which include every type of crime from murder to vandalism, from domestic violence to narcotics and firearms violations. She is the supervising attorney for all wiretap investigations in Montgomery County, which are the sources of many of the high profile narcotics trafficking arrests and asset seizures in the county.
And a Republican! Oh, but that one quote….must be “clueless”.
For what it’s worth (and it may not be worth much, these databases aren’t updated too often) Lexis Nexis shows only one Jose Ortiz registered to vote in PA - Jose Ortiz Cruz, who is indeed registered Republican. Of course, he was also born in 1937 and registered in Reading, PA.
Like I said, though, the database isn’t updated often. The last date Lexis has for it is October 31, 2002, and even then you can’t be sure how up to date the state’s own records are. If this guy registered in the last 5 1/2 years, he wouldn’t be in there.
I’m curious to know how the reporter discovered this guy’s party affiliation…
Well, thats one way to at least halve the liberal vote.
Another fifty or so million and we won’t have anything to worry about.
I’ve seen stories of a brother stabbing another brother over a piece of gum. What makes this any different or special?
This may be a little more clued in for you.

“I certainly understand that politics, and this race in particular has generated a lot of passion,” said Ferman, “but this is one of the most unusual expressions of political passion I have ever seen.”
LMAOROF I just read this to my family and we all had a good laugh. The story of my brother and I, he 15 and I 14 fighting over how large a piece of turkey roast I had gotten always comes up at thanksgiving, he said “think you got a big enough peice pig” I put the knife up to his throat and sait “Yes, I do” (He claims it was a fork) My mom said put the knife down and “If you boys want to fight go outside” We did and I told him “you have three shots to knock me out” so he took his three shots and I kicked him square in the family jewels and he dropped like a rock, my mom watching the whole thing said to me “If he can’t have my grandkids because of this I’m gonna be mad” and walked inside leaving him on the ground writhing in pain. I know it sounds messed up but we all laugh about it during the holidays.
The difference is these two were trying to kill each other over politics now thats really messed up.
Wondering what their immigration status is? Collegeville is home of Ursinus college and in midst of some farm country. Overall the county basically rots except for the Main Line upscale communities more south. Reading is not so far north and has plenty of Hispanic illegals. Perhaps they will clash with the skinheads from Allentown area.
I’d guess that Obambi would have more support than Hillary though. Hardly worth fighting over though with both socialist swine.
“Ortiz, a registered Republican and Clinton supporter”
WHAT??? oh, he did the stabbing.. I guess they’re just presuming he’s a Republican..
lol! two morons fighting over two other morons. it’s moronmania! call don king to book the rematch!!
sunday! sunday! sunday!
1 Montco Brother-in-Law Stabs Another in Voting Dispute

“If Ortiz is convicted of the felony charge, he won’t be able to vote. And voter registration records reveal that Ortiz, who supports Clinton, is registered Republican.”
Yikes! I just had an image of HRC in tights in a wrestling match in my head. I think I may be scarred for life!
Thanks, AJ.
You mean this picture?

Now you can claim to be scarred for life.
LOL!
Awwww! That was just wrong, olympian. W-R-O-N-G…wrong!
And, I took the bait and clicked the link. Geez!
I think I may need therapy now. Anybody know if Dr. Phil is available?
Hillary supporters & Obama supporters trying to KILL each other… Ralph Nader running… the Dow up almost 200 points. Coincidence?
I’m told they were actually fighting over which one
loved Hillary the most…
~
Ortiz: “YOU love her!”
Shurelds: “No, YOU do”
Ortiz:”Not as much as YOU!”
Shurelds grabs Ortiz’s throat.
Ortiz stabs Shurelds.

They told the police that they won the weekly family “Charades” game, because no one guessed that they were pantomiming
“The 2008 Democrat Convention”
i’m just glad they didn’t decide to blame this on republicans
and that’s how we get a McCan’t as the Republican candidate…
It adds up perfectly, Michelle: Clinton is a democrat, and McCain is a RINO. Same thing.
This guy just want to vote for the younger one.
Just another example of our cultural decay. Whether it’s a stabbing over political beliefs, verbally bashing and impugning a la Harry Reid or the petulant rantings towards anyone who doesn’t think as we do, things on many levels are quite troubling.
We may not need to vote this November. The Democrats might kill each other before it comes to a vote. The Democratic national convention could well descend into cannibalism when they put so many Hillarites and Obamamaniacs in the same room.
All you have to do is go back to the 2004 election. There was plenty of violence, most of which was directly at Republicans. (A friend of mine had his car keyed because he had a pro-Bush bumper sticker. He even saw the guy do it, but being an old man he just let it go. He then wrote a letter to the editor of the local newspaper discussing the incident and the presumptuous nature of liberals who think they are entitled to do whatever they want just because they feel like it.)
If only all Clinton and Obama supporters could resolve their differences this way!
:gouges eyes out (thanks olympian2008)
:hands Barry F. a brain douche (it may help)
I wonder if there is something more to this than just a simple, political disagreement. I wonder if there was a long-standing feud between these two man. If this is what stands for intelligent, political dialogue, I think these men need a padded room and two straightjackets.
nope doesn’t add up, registered Republican supporting Hitlery that would be fighting over Obambi. Sounds, like one of those that voted in a Republican only primary to make sure that we had McCain versus a candidate that stood on conservative principles.
I think there have been a lot of ‘cross-overs’ this year. And, sadly we are reaping a not so good crop of candidates. The Republican party better take a look at how this primary has gone and make sure adjustments are made for 2012, and now! No more last minute registering.
Geesh.. Crazies, although political talk is getting pretty heated in my family, but not to the point of death!
You’re right, could be one of those illegals taking a social security number from the ‘dead list’. once again, doing the jobs legal citizens won’t do…
