Two fucking weirdos got arrested in Utah after setting up booby traps along a hiking trail popular with families and tourists looking to experience nature without having to lose cell coverage. One of the traps was a giant rock with spikes roped to it designed to swing down and hit people in the head if they tripped a line. The other was just a line positioned so the victim would trip over it and into a bunch of sharpened stakes. And the purpose of this was?
According to the weirdos they were trying to kill wildlife. By setting up booby traps along a trail where people walk. So wild animals are prone to trip over ropes into sharpened stakes? While strolling along a hiking trail munching dried banana chips and listening to Native American chants on their iPads? The story really falls apart when you consider that the traps were set right by the entrance to a makeshift shelter where hikers often stop to camp. But ELK sometimes sleep there too. When they're GASSED from a long day of NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY and MEDITATING UNDER BIRCH TREES. I know a couple of psychos in dire need of a good stringing up.
