New Documentary Covers Colorado’s ‘Mad Pooper’ From 2017

It's one of Colorado's "crazy" stories that made national news and has now been turned into a film. What may be the weirdest part is that the "pooper" was never identified or given a ticket.

2017 "Pooping" Bandit Story Becomes TLC Documentary

I think I had vague memories of this "Mad Pooper" case coming from a neighborhood in Colorado Springs, but I can't be certain; you would think that we would have done a story about it back then, but it doesn't look like it. I can't imagine how frustrating it must have been to deal with this person, and to not find any sufficient "justice."

According to The Gazette, at least once a week, about 60 miles south of Denver, over two months during the summer of 2017, a woman would "poop" on people's lawns while out on a run; reports say she would even bring along napkins to clean herself afterwards.

Many may recall the story of the man in Granby who used his modified bulldozer to "take revenge" on town officials; it became known as the Killdozer story; that story was much more serious, as it ended with the man killing himself, but it was also "weird."

Take a look at the trailer for the documentary, which comes out on November 19, 2026, on TLC Discovery and HBO Max:
