Stabs self to frame neighbor

2005 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

http://www.cadillacnews.com/articles/2005/03/22/news/news03.txt

19 year old Christopher Seward of Lake City had an argument with a neighbor about a bottle of booze. Perhaps he'd already had too much because he launched a hare-brained plan to frame him. Seward stabbed himself in the chest and called the police claiming that the neighbor had done it.

The Missaukie County sheriff says all indications point to an accidental death.

Definitely Keep: Darwin Award
This is good. "I'll call the cops and tell them he stabbed me, but just to make it look good, I'll stab myself."

Maybe Toss: Lacks Excellence
I'm sorry, but - to me - this story just doesn't have that certain something that I look for in a good Darwin.

Neutral: Darwin Award
This one is about on a level with the Italian guy who had his cousin take off his leg with a chainsaw for the insurance money... and he didn't survive either. This one could use a more humorour write-up, though.
