 The police charged him? Luckily, there is no real crime to worry about in
Chicago...

No pic to worry about this time.

'Virgin Mary' stain defaced, covered

May 6, 12:20 PM (ET)

CHICAGO (Reuters) - A stain under a highway bridge that had drawn hundreds
of faithful who thought it resembled the Virgin Mary was painted over by a
road crew on Friday after a vandal defaced the image.

Chicago police said they charged a 37-year-old man with damage to state
property after he used black shoe polish to paint "big lie" on the yellow
and white stain which had become the site of an impromptu shrine for the
past three weeks.

Some wept as a coat of brown paint was rolled over the stain on a wall next
to a sidewalk where candles, flowers, pictures and other mementos had been
placed.

Engineers had said the stain was most likely caused by a water leak from the
road above, mixed with salt that had been used on the highway during the
winter. Police did not say what the man's motive might have been in defacing
the image.

I think he did a number of people a favor.

I wouldn't go that far. But I'd like to put up a statue of the Easter Bunny
next door.
