Explosive new evidence heard in the inquest into the mysterious April 2022 death of a 67 year-old Irish man have revealed the twist ending: The chicken did it, according to the Irish Examiner.
County Roscommon man Jasper Kraus, a cancer survivor who had been in poor health at the time of his death on the afternoon of April 28th, was found semi-conscious and bleeding profusely from a leg wound on the floor of his kitchen by his tenant, Corey O’Keeffe, who promptly called emergency services. Operators talked O’Keeffe through staunching the bleeding and performing CPR during the 25 minute wait for paramedics to arrive at the rural home, during which Kraus sadly expired.
His final words, according to O’Keeffe’s testimony: “Rooster.” Kraus’s daughter, Virginia Guinan, arrived shortly after the paramedics, and observed a trail of blood leading outside to the chicken coop. It was there she found the evil clucker: An “aggressive” Brahma male who had attacked Guinan (and reportedly a child) before, the blood still dripping from his claws. The article doesn’t mention what happened to the chicken, we assume he was beheaded and consumed for his crime.
