TV weatherman wakes in hot tub with naked dead man

[FLAprogressive]

Arkansas police are investigating the death of a man found naked in a hot tub next to a sleeping TV weatherman.

A friend woke meteorologist Brett Cummins, of Little Rock station KARK, on Labor Day. He found the forecaster snoring in the empty whirlpool next to a nude man with a dog collar around his neck, The Arkansas Democrat & Gazette reported.

The 36-year-old resident who made the grisly discovery, Christopher Barbour, allegedly told police that the victim, 24-year-old Dexter Williams, was blue in the face and lying near Cummins' shoulder, ArkansasNews.com reported.

35. Like you know.

Like ANY of you snarks in this thread know Brett Cummins or the fine, gentle soul that he is. All you want to do is run your fingertips without an iota of knowledge to back up your nastiness.

Y'all ain't got the first clue about how he's grieving right now. But go ahead and have your little thrills.

[Codeine]

37. I know tweakers.

He looks and acts precisely like a speed freak.

12. how much drugs would you have to take to be able to fall asleep in an empty hot tub?

I read the article.

[CTyankee]

13. Not funny, really. I have a friend whose husband died in the night and she woke up

lying next to a dead man. He had had an abdominal aneurism, it turned out. He didn't make a sound and died peacefully, according to her. He was only 64.

She told me that she got up, called 911, called her kids and said "Dad has died in his sleep" and then waited for them to come to the house. Her husband had had some health problems but this was totally unexpected.

These things happen...

20. The odd part of the story is not waking up nexto a dead person...

I'm pretty sure it's the fact that they were found in an empty hot tub and the dead guy was naked with a dog collar around his neck.

[CTyankee]

30. Huh? meaning what?...sorry...not getting your point here...

[shanti]

34. that's what happened

to a friend of mine. died in her sleep from a heart attack. :( i could think of worse ways to go, though.

[spanone]

14. the hangover....

[ChandlerJr]

16. How good of a weatherman could he have been

if he couldn't predict this?

And just another reason not to use those damn choke chain collars.

When police arrived they observed Williams "lying on his right side in a fetal position, his face was blue and purple in color with a chain around his neck," Roussie said in the report. "The chain was silver in color and consistent with what I believed to be a dog collar."

36. He was/is good enough to be a Chief Meteorologist

in Tornado Alley, on a station that was consistently first-rated in terms of severe weather coverage. But don't let that stop from taking the cheap shots.

[Habibi]

17. How awful. Really.

[FLAprogressive]

18. Yeah, I feel bad for the family of the guy who died. I also feel for Cummins....it seems like a

terrible accident and now he has to live with it for the rest of his life. Not only that, his career might be ruined and now everybody knows about his personal life. Plus, he lost a friend/lover.

[Bonhomme Richard]

19. He probably pee'd in the water to boot. n/t

[Warren DeMontague]

22. it's not funny, I know... but for some reason it sounds like the plot of a Will Ferrell movie. nt

[dembotoz]

24. he performed global warming

[Shagbark Hickory]

27. Sounds like some party.

[cwydro]

28. Too funny

that his FB page says "big changes on the way" for Labor day.

[Bigmack]

32. Never mind the dead guy...

what happened to the goat..... ??

You fucking people don't care about animal welfare at all!

[lonestarnot]

33. Must have been a hell of a party.

People never cease to amaze me. And how does anyone but the weatherman know whether or not he was actually just feigning the condition of sleep?
