The town of Manlius in upstate New York is mourning the loss of Faye, a swan who was stolen from the village pond over the weekend along with her four cygnets. The cygnets, or baby swans, were recovered, but officials say the mama swan was eaten. Three teenagers were arrested Tuesday on charges including grand larceny and criminal mischief in connection with the swan-napping. Police say two of the suspects, aged 16 and 17, were released to their parents because they are juveniles. The third is 18 and was awaiting arraignment. Information on their attorneys wasn’t available.
I have no knowledge of the family, but when people get hungry enough, they’ll eat anything. Especially large birds. Poverty makes people desperate.
However, as I said: I have no idea whether these were desperate poor people (of which there are many in the US) or just unconscionable asshole fucks (of which there are almost as many).
Edit: typos. I was not drunk, despite the many errors.

I guess it’s possible they were starving, but two of the chick’s were at a store and the other two at the house where they cooked the swan.
