Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Anna Ayala, the woman who changed the face of Wendy's by planting a severed fingertip in her chili last March, was
recently sentenced to nine years in prison. Her husband, Jaime Plascencia was sentenced to 12 years. For those not familiar with the details, Ayala caused a worldwide brouhaha when she produced a severed digit from a bowl of rich and meaty Wendy's chili. It was later determined that the finger came not from a Wendy's employee, but from a co-worker of Ayala's husband. If I recall correctly, the co-worker owed Plascencia some money and Plascencia, opportunist that he was, offered to settle the debt by accepting the man's finger, which was recently severed in a job-related incident.
Wendy's estimates that the stink has caused losses of $21 million worldwide and roughly $500,000 at the San Jose location where the incident occurred. At her sentencing, Ayala apologized and said that Wendy's is one of her family's favorite restaurants.

And that's supposed to make it all right? Please.

But, no, these are Hispanics and they need to be taught a lesson. Screw American justice, this is as bad as the OJ trial...If I were the Hispanic community I'd be rioting all over the damn country. Poor Wendy's lost a few million, what does that translate to, a bad lunch rush where they couldn't sell more crap food to the overweight white people?
