Spiderman doll used at murder trial - Toledo Blade

With gloved hands, retired Monroe County Sheriff’s Detective Peter Navarre held out a Spiderman doll in Lucas County Common Pleas Court Friday – its ankles and wrists tied together and a needle protruding from its head.

“It was hanging upside down on the door that led to where he was residing,” the retired detective said Friday of the burned-out Florida restaurant where investigators found Robert Bowman living in 1982. “We collected it as evidence.”

The seriousness of the trial aside...



Man...how cool is that???

[LonnieFisher]

I've done worse than that to some Spidey figures!! Way worse........

[Megospidey]

makes me sick to see Spidey abused like that

[JDeRouen]

How on earth did you find that? The word "Mego" isn't in the story, so I assume you were searching for "spiderman doll" or some such?

[palitoy]

disturbing.

Mego voodoo
I know, bad taste, but still

It's a shame Toyfare is no longer around. I'd love to see their take on this.

I don't find this funny at all. It's disturbing.

Maybe we should chip in and get a repro Spidey-outfit for the figure? Or ask it not be destroyed after the trial. Someone here could restore it.

You think that wierd. Ever see what some little girls do to thier Barbies? The shrinks say it some kinda "Right of Passage" for young women. I think its sadistic.
