One less butt-cutter on the streets...

Let us all hope that this is the weirdest arrest of the weekend: authorities in Peru have arrested Johnny D. Guillen (nee Johnny D. Guillen Pimentel), aka the Corta Nalgas, wanted for slashing the buttocks of women in clothing stores in Virginia.

Guillen had been on the lam since mid-2011, when Fairfax County authorities set up a task force to determine who was surreptitiously lacerating the backsides of unsuspecting women as they shopped for clothes.

According to CNN, Guillen was captured Friday in Lima, Peru. The Corta nalgas — it means "butt-cutter" — is believed to have assaulted 13 young women. CNN describes his alleged method:

"In one incident, officers responded to a report of a woman who suffered a 1 1/2 inch wound to her buttocks at a Forever 21 store on July 25.

"The 18-year-old victim was shopping when she noticed clothes that had fallen off of a rack behind her and saw a man bending down to pick them up," police said. "She abruptly felt a sharp pain and considered that one of the hangers had struck her. A short time later, she discovered her denim shorts had been slashed; her buttocks had been cut and were bleeding."

Why couldn't a criminal with such a funny nickname be accused of behavior that's a little less psychotic? The sheer creepiness is taking all the fun out of it.

At the very least, we can take solace in knowing that the Butt Cutter is finally off the streets.

Well Overdue

(Dec. 7) -- Authorities threw the book at a woman who had a few overdue library books.

Police in Baytown, Texas, say they locked up Jessekah Few last month after the 25-year-old failed to show up in court for a hearing about unreturned library books.

"It's not a very common charge," Baytown Police Department Detective Alan Cliburn told WSAV.com

"It's part of the deal, part of the agreement that you enter into. It's just like anything else -- you can't take something that doesn't belong to you and just hold onto it."

Library officials say they only pursue charges against members who haven't returned more than $200 of property after multiple requests.

Few -- who was charged with a class-C misdemeanor -- has reportedly stated that the books were destroyed in a house fire seven years ago. She says her landlord, the fire department and even the Red Cross can attest to the blaze.

Contrary to reports indicating that Few was arrested on Thanksgiving Day, Baytown police told AOL News that she was apprehended the day before the holiday.
