Georgia Man Michael Crowley Charged with Uncle's Murder Over Honey Bun Dispute

In a shocking incident from Georgia, Michael Crowley has been detained for the fatal shooting of his uncle, Roderick Crowley, over a honey bun. Yes, you read correctly—a honey bun. While snacks often evoke fond memories, this case delves into an astonishingly extreme reaction. Reports from DeKalb County indicate that 29-year-old Michael became furious upon discovering that his 48-year-old uncle had consumed his cherished honey bun. Despite a witness advising him to diffuse his anger and exit the premises, Michael returned and allegedly shot Roderick four times, targeting his chest and arms. Following the shooting, Michael reportedly contacted 911 to confess, stating he had shot Roderick and was seeking refuge in the woods. Authorities later recovered Michael's firearm. Responding to the scene shortly after 11:20 a.m. last Thursday in the Ellenwood area, police charged Michael with malice murder. He has since been released on bond, having waived his right to an initial hearing.
