   David Pope = Vapid dope.   
      
   And here's some background:   
   Connecticut's David Pope wanted to help the homeless man he saw   
   pushing a cart of cans and bottles down the street.  Pope grabbed the   
   77-year-old man by the arm and insisted on taking him home to have a   
   meal.  At Pope's home, the man received food and a dog bite   
   to the leg.   
     Once the older man, who was not, in fact, homeless, was able to   
   leave Pope's home undetected, he rang the police from his own   
   residence to make a complaint about Pope's dog.  Once the animal was   
   under control, an apparently intoxicated Pope explained to officers th$   
   other man was homeless.  The charges against Pope include   
   second-degree kidnapping and interfering with the duties of an officer   
   of the law.
