>This week marks 15 years since Mary Bale put a cat in the bin.
Always been absolutely fascinated by this story.
The inexplicable brain-do-thing that caused a cat loving choir singer, the most boring and normal woman in Britain, to just brainfart and call of the void, not even thinking, put a cat in a bin for no reason. To it very quickly blowing up, everyone in the country talking about how much they hated her, people calling for the death penalty, the Telegraph publishing the headline "Is Mary Bale the most evil woman in Britain?"
Honestly fascinating and bizarre. Mad that our brains sometimes just do random things. Mad that people get into such a fervour over such things.
I wonder where she is now.
