Geter Done: Georgia Mother Arrested After Forcing Son To Kill Hamster With Hammer As Punishment for Bad Grades

Police in Georgia have arrested Lynn Middlebrooks Geter who is charged with forcing her 12-year-old son to kill his pet hamster with a hammer as a punishment for bad grades (the boy’s bad grades not the hamster’s). “Killing pet with hammer” appears to be farther down on after “no television” and “no sleepovers.” Way down on the list.

This is right up there with the father organizing baby cockfights. This is so positively disgusting and disturbing that a plea would be highly advised (and expected) in the case. Geter will not want to argue self-defense to a jury.

The 38-year-old mother was charged with animal cruelty, child cruelty and battery.

News of Geters arrest was received below with relief by the hamster community:

  1. This doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Law enforcement needs to look for other signs and incidences of abuse in that household. I was in law enforcement myself for years and those sorts of “punishments” don’t happen out of the blue.

    I believe the boy should be removed pending further investigation OR the boy’s father needs to throw “Mother of the Year” out of the house.

  2. GOOD FOR HER…MURDERER…HER SON NEEDS TO MOVE OUT….HE DON’T NEED THIS KIND OF ENVIRONMENT…THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW IS SHE KILLED HER SON…HOW DISGUSTING IS THAT!!!
