Game 3 of the NBA Finals was an important game. If the Lakers had won they would’ve held a back breaking 3-0 lead. The Magic needed the game to stay alive and to give themselves some hope moving forward. The game was also incredibly important to Johnathan Weaver of Las Vegas, who tied up his girlfriend’s one and two year old sons in order to watch Game 3 at a bar.

Fox5Vegas.com lays out Weaver’s stupidity:

He was arrested at the Augusta Apartments Tuesday night after police and firefighters found the children tied up in a garage with cloth stuffed in their mouths and rope tied around their necks.

Weaver told police he went to a nearby PT’s Pub that let him watch the NBA Finals inside, despite the fact that he is younger than 21-years-old. He later returned home to find police waiting for him.

Las Vegas police only charged Weaver with kidnapping, child abuse and attempted murder, so felonious stupidity must not be on the books anymore in Nevada. Whatever time Weaver serves in jail should be accompanied by 30 swift kicks in the ass daily.
