slacker Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Irregular News for 06.02.06 Plattsburgh, NY -- A Plattsburgh man is facing felony charges for allegedly striking his mother in the head after the two disagreed about the fate of an "American Idol" contestant. According to court records, 24-year-old Cory Favreau was discussing the television show with his mother, Jan Chagnon, on May 24th -- the night of the finale. His mother made comments that contestant Katharine McPhee was going to have a successful career despite losing to another contestant, Taylor Hicks. Favreau allegedly stood up, made a malicious comment to his mother and struck her in the head with a sharpened, cross-shaped object attached to a bicycle chain. Court records say the two were drinking alcohol at the time. Chagnon was treated at C-V-P-H Medical Center for a cut to the top of her head and was released. Favreau was charged with second-degree assault and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon. He was sent to Clinton County Jail, where he was still being held tonight on five-thousand dollars cash bail. He is scheduled to reappear June 5 in City Court. source Quote Link to comment
