Tell me Why???

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. It looks like the charges will stick in a bizarre case of Vaseline vandalism in Binghamton, New York.

A Virginia man is accused of covering virtually every surface in a motel room with petroleum jelly.

A grand jury today indicted Robert Chamberlain on a charge of felony criminal mischief in connection with last spring's incident.

He was arrested after a cleaning crew discovered the T-V set, furniture, carpeting and everything else in Chamberlain's motel room had been slathered with petroleum jelly.

Police say when they tracked him down at a nearby motel, Chamberlain was covered from head-to-toe with the stuff.

A manager at the Motel Six says it took more than a month to clean up the mess.
