Don’t answer your phone at the movies…especially in California

If you visit the movies, you’re surely familiar with that one individual every theatre seems to have.

This is the person who answers calls during the film.

In California, a man lodged a complaint about a woman making calls, which led to her exiting the theatre with two men. One of those men returned and stabbed the complainant in the neck with a meat thermometer.

I doubt he was merely checking to see if his fellow cinema-goer was “done,” but that incident likely brought a new kind of thrill to the movie experience.

Now, the assailant, 40-year-old Landry Boullard, has been found guilty and is facing a life sentence in prison.

In addition to the stabbing, the victim suffered a blow to the head, resulting in bleeding on the brain, and subsequently fell into a coma. He remained hospitalized for five weeks.
