I don't consider this to really be bad publicity because they do point out that the owners did report it missing, and did check back occassionally to see if it had been found, and the snake was returned to the owners when they saw it on the initial local news reports. Today it was on Headline News. Must be a slow day in the world.
I do wish that I was lucky enough to come across a JCP in a hotel room...
I think it made a good local piece, but why it made the national news is beyond me. Like I said, it must be a slow day, because it was right there with the story about the Acura that had a machete sticking in the front bumper...
I will say, the next time that I go to Myrtle Beach, I will check my hotel rooms a little closer for any hidden treasures. Maybe set out a F/T, just in case...

Reason: after thought...
anyone else seem to notice the tank it was kept in and the screen lid condition? Also from the pics/video it seems that JCP live with a redtail BCI in the same enclosure.
points to the news crew for not making it a terrifying story and going nuts with it, but if i was the guy that was keeping the snake until an owner came forward i would have been pretty upset to see the way it was kept and try to help them out a bit more.

Not enough horrible things happened to keep it out of national news! But I think its a nice break to not see something depressing everytime the news is on. Thanks for sharing lol!
