The founder of the Satanic Temple’s Illinois chapter is asking a federal judge to intervene in a custody dispute over a 330-pound “emotional support hog” named Chief Wiggum, who not only provides psychological relief to its owner, but soothing rubdowns, as well.
In an affidavit filed Tuesday for an emergency restraining order, Kenneth William Mayle claims Chubby Goat Acres, a nonprofit animal sanctuary in Southwestern Michigan that took in Chief Wiggum in 2018 while the Chicago-based Satanist was going through “temporary housing difficulties,” has refused to return his pet.
