 DA Kelly Burke's Pants Burst Into Flames During Press Conference

Kelly Burke lights one up

District Attorney Kelly Burke Lights up Press Conference

 

By Charlotte Webb, Staff Writer

    In an afternoon press conference called today to discuss whether he knew Bibb Magistrate Dorothy Pertilla was on paid leave, Houston County District Attorney Kelly Burke's pants unexpectedly burst into flame.   Onlookers said Burke's pants burst into flames after he stated that he had a contract signed in blood stating that Pertilla would be on unpaid leave as part of the agreement to drop her case.    The fire was extinguished when Burke's aide threw his body on the burning pants, snuffing the flames.  This is not the first time Burke's credibility has been called into question. In 2003, Burke was not called a big fat liar by school officials.

    Fire officials have not yet released the cause of the fire.

As you probably know, this site is a little thing we like to call satire, it is not the Houston Home Journal nor is it District Attorney Kelly Burke's site.  It is however dedicated to illustrating the surreal nature of life with King Kelly, DA of  Houston County.  If you need this footnote to tell you this, you either rode the short bus to school or you are Kelly Burke.    This site was created on a private computer in a private home, on a private internet connection, to a privately owned domain.
