Mom Who Killed Escaped Monkey Feared for Her Kids, Calls Out Officials Over Search
Mississippi
Mom Who Shot Missing Monkey Says …
Authorities Are Monkeying Around

Jessica Bond Ferguson — the mom who shot and killed an escaped monkey Sunday to protect her kids — wishes the whole thing never happened … she told TMZ.
The mother of 5 told us, “I wish it didn’t have to happen that way. I just wish they took better measures in taking care of it and trying to find them.”
As you know … a truck carrying Rhesus monkeys from a research center overturned in rural Mississippi last week — 21 monkeys onboard nearly escaped the vehicle.
Thirteen were corralled by authorities, 5 were shot on sight after a supervisor was mistakenly informed the monkeys were infected with COVID, herpes, and hepatitis C — authorities later clarified they weren’t — but 3 escaped into the wild.

One of the 3 made it into Ferguson’s yard in Heidelberg, Mississippi Sunday morning, where she shot and killed it, saying she feared for her children.
“I feel like if they wanted us to do something else then they should’ve had a search team out,” she said. “They could’ve had drones flying around. They could’ve took more measures to look for these monkeys and prevented this from happening.”
She continued … “I hate that it happened but I’m going to protect my kids at all costs.”
Another of the 3 monkeys was found and captured by authorities Sunday as well … so, it appears only one is still on the loose.

Unloads On Richard ‘P**** Ass’ Sherman
… In Since-Deleted Post
Published
George Pickens just wrote another chapter in his “Book of Deleted Instagram Disses” — this time, the Cowboys receiver ripped into ex-NFLer Richard Sherman for comments made on “Thursday Night Football.”
Just a week after Pickens set his sights on Philadelphia and Eagles fans and said they’re only good for sandwiches, the 24-year-old athlete shifted focus to the Prime Video analyst.
the story of the game was George Pickens
“uninterested in playing football…
disengaged… disappeared… half-assed it…
unacceptable”

Sherman criticized Pickens for seeming “uninterested” and giving a “half-assed” performance in CeeDee Lamb‘s absence after the loss to the Detroit Lions … something, he said, simply can’t happen if No. 3 wants to be the best in the NFL.
Pickens — who had five catches for 37 yards in the 44-30 L — got wind of the Super Bowl champ’s evaluation … and fired off an unfiltered response on Instagram on Friday.
Pickens deflected blame and pointed to the fact it’s a team game … and that’s something Sherman should understand.
“Lots of shh has to go right for. Explosive. Plays,” Pickens said in the removed IG Story “… and it’s funny cause I thought former players would know that such as. RICHARD P**** ASS SHERMAN WHO BTW AINT SHH WITHOUT THE LEGION OF BOOM WE ALL REMEMBER SAN FRANCISCO BROTHER..”
Worth noting — Sherman was a superstar on the Seattle Seahawks and a key member of its’ legendary defense … but Pickens seems to think he was no good with his second team.
Interestingly, Pickens then tried to spread “love” to Sherman for a second … while also instructing him to never talk about him again if he’s going to keep “d***riding.”
He then went back to his roast … calling Sherman a “LEACH WIERDO” for not noting the fact he was being double teamed during the game.
Even though he scrubbed the message from his story, Pickens knew the internet would have a field day with his words … and he was right!!
