mckinneycut.jpg Hollywood must be scrambling to buy the rights to the Joyce McKinney story: it features insanity, obsession, religion, a Penthouse pinup turned female rapist, courtroom drama, and a cloned vicious pit bull. Jeremy Olshan of the NY Post dished up all the lurid details that other news outlets neglected.

As you may recall, a woman named Bernann McKinney recently made the news because she cloned her pit bull in Korea for $50,000, and the result was five puppies. Someone recognized her photograph and ID'd her as Joyce McKinney, a sex crazed pinup girl who was on the lam for 30 years after she kidnapped a Mormon missionary. Joyce, a former Miss Wyoming, was a Utah student in the 70's when she became obsessed with Kirk Anderson, a fellow student and missionary. They had a brief romance but she was too possessive, and he moved to England to escape her.

She tracked him down, and with chloroform and a fake gun, kidnapped him and manacled him with fur lined handcuffs to a bed at a remote cottage. After days of reading the scriptures and begging him to marry her, she forced him to have sex with her. Later in court he said " I couldn't move" and she testified "Kirk had to be tied up to have an orgasm."

The UK tabloids went wild with the story, dubbing her the "Shackle Queen." Somehow McKinney jumped bail and hid in Atlanta posing as a nun. When it became clear that British authorities didn't intend to extradite her, she posed nude in a series of magazines. In 1984 she was caught skulking around Kirk's home and was arrested again. In 1999 she was interviewed living in isolation in a shack in Tennessee with her beloved pit bull, who pulled her wheelchair.

Now it turns out her beloved pit bull viciously attacked two joggers and was condemned to be euthanized, but Joyce kidnapped HIM from the pound before he could be put to death. So these adorable puppies have THAT DNA. The Koreans who cloned her dog might be sorry they gave her a $50,000 discount for being "so nice." Who would YOU cast in the role of Joyce?

Best part was he was wearing a Mormon chastity belt whilst shackled. I truly want to know WTF that loooks like.

sally struthers, if you have to make a film.
Personally, I think this woman has had too much attention.

BTW, I knew there is no logical, rational reasoning behind cloning.

There are millions of dogs in shelters around the world who need homes, but she HAD to have her dog reincarnated?

And how does that idiot know her 5 pit bull puppies are not just regular puppies from an animal shelter and not cloned from her euthanized dog?

I say Sienna Miller would be perfectly cast!

While young, she looks like Shelley Long, that girl from Cheers. Fat and old, she looks exactly like Shirley Knight (Helen Hunt's mom in As Good As It Gets). Tom Cruise can play the pit bull. ;)

Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears young...Suzanne Somers or Sylvia Browne (Montel Williams' psychic girlfriend)

Duh...Delta Burke.

Love the quote from the wife of the kidnapped Mormon when Joyce's identity was revealed: "Well, she's ugly as sin now, but that's definitely her." LOL!

Terri Garr looks like her, and as a bonus, she'll work for scale plus lunch!

Mostly getting arrested for DUI, attending AA daily and trying to hang on to her marriage to a younger man (Tatum O'Neal's half-brother).

^^^^

I always thought Rebecca would do a fab job playing Hillary Clinton.

But then Hillary got kinda ugly and Rebecca had a facelift that left her looking "younger," but somehow generic and unrecognizable at the same time.

The Philippine capital of Manila has this famous socialite, Vicki Belo...plastic surgeon to the stars...Google her, and you'll see she's a dead ringer for this crazy. And by the way, Vicki is not a licensed doctor, much more surgeon, but she's making a killing in the industry. Only in the Philippines!
