5:45 A.M.,Wednesday, September 21, 2011.(CC Special Report)
All nineteen county legislators were found dead at the county landfill yesterday at 4:15 P.M. They died when a large New York City garbage truck unloaded solid waste on the pre-occupied legislators, who were standing in a freshly dug open pit and arguing with each other.
State police investigators and the county sheriff were interviewed for this initial report.
"They climbed down into the pit to inspect the lining. Then the truck arrived at the edge of the pit. They didn't know what hit them," said state police Captain Mike Dexter.
The sheriff told reporters that "the big truck backed up and dumped its entire load before the victims had a chance to get out. Imagine," he said, "seven tons of New York City garbage fell on them in a matter of seconds." He paused to reflect. "Don't print this, you hear? I don't feel particularly sorry about it. They never gave my department enough money. I don't think I'll miss any of them."
When a reporter for CC news told the sheriff that one of the victims was his wife, the sheriff replied: "Mercy, Jesus!"
All of the bodies were removed to the city hospital and next of kin were notified. The New York City truck driver was held for questioning. No charges were filed.
A detailed report will follow.
