Suspect Sentenced After Tainting Pastries With Feces

A judge sentenced the man convicted of putting his own fecal matter on food at a Dallas grocery store to five years in prison.
Against his attorney's advice, Behrouz Nahidmobarekeh took the stand in his own defense to explain why he did it.
"I was sitting at home and I was in one of my withdrawal and I had the feces there, I was cleaning up, I already did some heroin." said Nahidmobarekeh.
He said he was upset at employees at the Fiesta Grocery Store in Dallas.
"I picked up that dry feces I talked about it it couldn't hurt anybody I could get, even if I get caught I want to teach these people a lesson." said Nahidmobarekeh.
He said he thought they didn't properly address his complaints he'd made against the store.
After the conviction, Nahidmobarekeh's attorney says the jury made its decision too hastily.
"The jury made a decision because it was so grossed out. They couldn't follow the law. It was an emotional decision. I understand." said Clark Birdsall.
Judge Vic Cunningham called what Nahidmobarekeh did, "nasty" and "repulsive."
"It's been so nasty, it's raunchy, repugnant, repulsive, vile and vulgar. Your lawyer had the best line of all, you just can't put any lipstick on this pig. There's no way, it's just nasty." said Cunningham.
"I think by their verdict and sending the five years and considering he was probation eligible and giving him penitentiary time, I think it was a pretty strong verdict." said prosecutor Taly Haffar.
Store owners initially called police after customers complained the fresh-baked items smelled and tasted like manure.
