Boner Candidate #1: YOU COULD AT LEAST TRY TO LIVE UP TO YOUR NAME LE’GENIUS WISDOM…AT LEAST TRY
A 16-year-old boy arrested nearly three years ago on charges that he shot at another boy and committed a robbery was sentenced Monday to eight years in prison. Le’Genius Wisdom Williams of St. Petersburg, who was 13 then, pleaded guilty to shooting 15-year-old Dinarick Ford three times after the older teen reportedly taunted him. The shooting happened Aug. 14, 2013. Police at the time said Williams and a small group of teens were on the sidewalk when Ford rode by on a bike. The teens began to argue. Williams then pulled out a small-caliber gun and fired multiple times at Ford in the 1700 block of 26th Street S, police said. Williams turned himself in to St. Petersburg police a few days later. His charge of robbery by sudden snatching stems from a separate May 2013 case.

Boner Candidate #3: You Guys Could Have Just Built a Sand Castle
“I like a joke as much as the next person, but this is a family beach event.” So says a town councilor in the UK, adding that “it’s trivializing quite a serious matter.” The offense in question was a risqué sand sculpture, but the offender was none other than a local police department, reports the BBC. It seems that the Truro Police Department decided to enter the Cornwall Beach Games sandcastle-building competition, but with a questionable “crime scene” entry that featured a naked female murder victim with a spade sticking out of her back, adds the Plymouth Herald. That apparently wasn’t the only lapse in judgment going around, because their entry won first place. But when officials trumpeted their victory on social media, well, reaction was mixed and they ended up issuing an apology.
