Officers honored for finding man's penis
KC police officers honored for dedication, commitment
Police work means going beyond the training, performing tasks both heroic and extraordinary, Chief James Corwin told officers at an awards ceremony Tuesday.
- Racing a motorcycle after a confused elderly motorist driving in the wrong direction.
- Bailing thousands of gallons of water out of the department’s detention unit.
- Fishing a suicidal man’s dismembered penis out of his kitchen trash. It was successfully reattached.
- Three homicide detectives were also honored.



...um...huh...I am actually speechless on this one. I think I'll just sit back and see what my peeps have to say....(this is going to get crazy today) :)

Remember the old slang term for a detective? ( :

If it was me no way the man would have gotten his part back!

What a re-"Member"able experience!

Think these detectives got a "raise"?

Does this mean that John Wayne Bobbitt will have some competition for the sicko segment of the porn-watching population? LOL

They could do a movie together....."Two Heads Are Better Than None"
Posted by: G | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 08:35 AM
Bless this officer for the taking the matter into his hands.
If a bird in hand is worth two in the bush, what is penis in hand worth?
Posted by: aqua | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 08:39 AM
To the guy who's missing one, aqua, i'd say it's priceless.

Also among the honors should have been highest revenue generator through tickets. Maybe they could have one of those award pamphlets like kids get for school fundraisers. Or maybe just cash bonuses for highest revenue generated. At least they took time out of thier busy ticketing schedule to find the penis. That is above and beyond the call of duty. I wonder if the other officers now have "penis envy"?

lmao, brian! :)

Actually, I applaud these officers. I wouldn't want their job in the first place, and clearly some of them go beyond the minimum necessary requirements.
Posted by: David | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 09:16 AM
I bet this guy was disappointed to get his used sausage back. Wonder if it had any condiments slathered on it discovered in the trash?
Posted by: lr | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 09:27 AM
Good thing he didn't toss it out when he cut it off. Some stray dog or cat would have probably run off with it.
Posted by: Sandra | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 09:29 AM
While I read this, I couldn't help but have that King Missile song go thru my head. (No pun intended, there....)
Posted by: mike blur | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 09:57 AM
It's a good thing those officers got recognized, otherwise they really would have gotten the...SHAFT.
Posted by: Vandal | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 09:58 AM
It would take a cop like Shaft to find a severed weenie. You know if it were the Army that found it there would have been Privates involved. Of course in Canada they need a "Mountie" to do the job.
Posted by: Nukesgt | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 10:04 AM
I think I would have pulled it out of the trash and thrown it in the garbage disposal "oops"!!!
People like that shouldn't have reproductive organs... they shouldn't be allowed to breed!!
Posted by: Bohica | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 10:37 AM
Glad the police found his parts. Otherwise, they may have been charged with a missed-a-weiner.
Posted by: Alan | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 10:40 AM
The watch commanders generally know which officers are better at finding penis than others. Some men just have a knack for finding penis and I'm sure that these were the guys assigned to this job....Its reaaly no different than assigning the best at locating whores to the prostitution stings. The truth is that some guys will leap at the opportunity to "find" penis
Posted by: The Zipper | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 10:46 AM
I bet it wasn't "hard" to find.
Was this the freak Carlos Mencia was "poking" fun at the other night on his show?
Posted by: WSU Grad | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 12:35 PM
I have to admit, some of the comments on this blog are downright hilarious!! Thanks for the giggles...
P.S. Not comments on my name, please...I have heard them all...LOL
Posted by: MommaSack | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 12:54 PM
You know of course, when he found it he shouted, "Eurethra!"
Posted by: Little John | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 12:58 PM
The story is funny. What I find really amuzing is the fact that you all sit around poking fun at cops and dogging them out whenever possible. Yet you wonder why the police have little love for the community. With glorious examples like you, I would like the community either.

JC in KC---why don't you read your comments before you push the POST button?---it makes no sense at all
Posted by: The Zipper | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 01:04 PM
I wonder if they posed for a picture with the evidence. This is the cutest thing I have ever found.
Posted by: E.P. | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 01:08 PM
that office must have been at the head of the class at the academy
Posted by: t-bone | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 01:16 PM
WOW...I CAN EVEN SAY IT BACKWARDS.......WOW
Posted by: LANCE MCNACK | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 01:51 PM
So, if you cut off your nose to spite your face, what was this guy trying to spite?
Posted by: Rich Hill | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 01:51 PM
Good thing he didn't have a garbage disposal...
Posted by: Willerundi | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 02:11 PM
Jeffrey Dahmer saiys...you gonna eat that ??
Posted by: John Boy | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 03:12 PM
That would of been interesting listening to the dispatch on a scanner. Kind of like the guy who got his parts stuck in the filter of the swimming pool.
Posted by: Pam | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 04:07 PM
Great reading. Great posts. Thanx.
Posted by: jack | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 04:35 PM
All I can say is ouch.
Posted by: plattecohighschooler | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 05:19 PM
When they found the penis, were they working off of a tip?
Posted by: DWR | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 05:38 PM
Do you know that when Lorena Bobbit threw her husband's weenie out the window it bounced off the windshield of an elderly couple's car behind her. Do you know what the woman said to her husband?
"Good lord Harry, did you see the size of that penis on that bug?"
Posted by: BF | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 06:06 PM
I heard they took this guy to court for unlawful self-mutilation, but the judge took one look at it and threw it out for "lack of evidence!"
Posted by: ScottyDoesn'tKnow | Wednesday, June 21, 2006 at 11:48 PM
Snicker, chortle, snort...BF, that was freakin' hilarious.

Posted by: Brian | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 12:33 AM
wonder if he used a magnifying glass to find it? Good Lord I hope he used somethin other than his hand to pick it up.LOL
Posted by: BS Steve | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 03:16 AM
Well, you know, by the time all the blood drained out, it probably just looked like a coctail weenie.
Posted by: BF | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 10:45 AM
Wonder if he became suicidal before or after he lost his weenie. Talk about self induced sex change.
Posted by: Pam | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 11:35 AM
hey rememebr the guy in Thailand ? his wife sliced his memebr off, threw it out the window, and it was swallowd up by duck !!!
Posted by: PD | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 11:43 AM
I wonder what the officer's award will be shaped like?
Posted by: Pam | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 12:07 PM
The man was suicidal before he severed his penis? I would think it would be the other way around.
Posted by: David | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 02:45 PM
Is he going to send the surgeon a Thank You card for reattaching?
Posted by: lr | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 03:53 PM
well ya know what they say if ya dont use it....... then you cut if iff and throw it away...... oh thats not how it go?!
Posted by: Barbea | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 04:51 PM
Cops can get "cocky" at times!
Posted by: tom | Thursday, June 22, 2006 at 10:18 PM
look out john madden!
Posted by: kilta-k | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 03:21 AM
No word on whether the unfortunate victim requested the officers to take the severed member to a local fast-food restraurant and "Biggie-size" it before reattachment?
Posted by: kansantonio | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 08:54 AM
lol
Posted by: David | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 10:10 AM
I guess that guy was in the "good hands" of the law....
makes one a bit apprehensive next time one hears "feet back and spread em"...
Posted by: tim s | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 11:29 AM
Whoa nelly!.......I do hope the rewarded officer does not become cocky , or get a big head over this good fortune...
Posted by: Rod Luck | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 11:35 AM
well at least the owner will always have a definitive scar for ID purposes...forget using his fingerprints..
Posted by: Dr Ben Dover | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 11:41 AM
Will he have to be sent to a penile colony?
Posted by: tubetails | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 12:08 PM
Isn't there a saying, "Play with it but don't talk to it."
Now we have weenie rage!
Posted by: Pam | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 12:48 PM
I just hope they wore gloves when they dug that out.
Posted by: Sticky | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 01:55 PM
I wonder if they bagged that up in the evidence room before getting it back to him.
Posted by: Sticky | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 01:56 PM
I wonder if there were coffee grounds on it?
Posted by: Bill | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 03:31 PM
I can't imagine how that sounded on dispatch when the officers got the call.
Posted by: Sticky | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 03:32 PM
That's got to garauntee that he'll be coming up an inch shorter, at the least, now.
Posted by: Sticky | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 03:56 PM
the cops name wasn't Dick was it???
Posted by: KEN | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 04:09 PM
cops can be cocky at times
Posted by: | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 04:10 PM
Cops name was probably Richard Head
Posted by: John Boy | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 06:12 PM
Or maybe Penis Cranium
Posted by: John Boy | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 06:13 PM
Or possibly Enos (Enos the Pxxxx)
Posted by: John Boy | Friday, June 23, 2006 at 06:14 PM
And I thought he was just a computer hacker

Posted by: N | Sunday, June 25, 2006 at 02:31 PM
So is the guy going to a mental hospital or a penal colony?

All I can say is police work may not pay much, but the tips are big.
Posted by: Sandra | Monday, June 26, 2006 at 12:28 PM
Just what are the penile codes for that county, anyway?
Posted by: Sandra | Monday, June 26, 2006 at 12:34 PM
(Insert your own penis joke here). Nice.
