It doesn’t take a genius to know that throwing rocks off a bridge onto oncoming cars could lead to serious death or injury. Whenever some cretin get caught doing it they always claim they didn’t mean for anyone to get hurt, but what exactly do they think is going to happen to a car when a rock goes through the windshield?
Joshua N. Sizemore and Amanda Madison claim they were playing a game, or that alternately it was all just a prank. The fact that they were caught half naked tells me they derived a sick thrill from trying to cause accidents. Unfortunately it looks like the authorities are buying their prank/sex game (!?!) story so they’ll get off much easier than they deserve:
LAKEWOOD, Wash. — A young man and woman who were allegedly tossing rocks off a railroad trestle into freeway traffic below as part of a bizarre stripping game pleaded not guilty in court Tuesday.
Joshua N. Sizemore, 23, and 18-year-old Amanda L. Madison were ordered to remain held for investigation of 14 counts of second degree assault. Bail was set at $40,000 and $50,000 bail, respectively.
State troopers say the pair told them that they were on the railroad trestle tossing rocks and playing a midnight game of what they called ‘Sex me,’ where you take off clothes depending on which headlights are out on passing cars.

“To get on an overpass and throw rocks — the potential for death (and) damage is so great — yes, it does make me a little angry,” said Sgt. Freddy Williams with the Washington State Patrol.
Court documents say when captured, Sizemore had 12 rocks in his pocket. After initially denying they were throwing rocks, prosecutors say Sizemore eventually confessed, saying he was doing it “just for the thrill” and wasn’t trying to hurt anyone. Madison also later confessed and acknowledged having “a few sips” of alcohol, court documents said.
In all, 14 cars were reportedly hit by rocks, including the cruiser of a top commander at the State Patrol who was out on drunk driving patrol.
One person was injured when a rock crashed through the window and bruised his arm, but did not need to be hospitalized.
Outrageous. We’ve turned out a generation of monkeys who grunt and throw rocks at cars for entertainment. Breitbart has video which shows the kind of damage that was being caused. It was pure luck no one was killed, and it will be pure luck if these two donn’t kill someone else within the next decade during some other “prank.”
