It's terrible to make me laugh at such a tragedy. Really. You should be ashamed....;-)

My question in cases like this is always...Did the victim not have a clue? Having a claw hammer by the bed might have been one I'm guessing.

Honestly, there really isn't anything funny about this one. Just tasteless.

Well, you can't win 'em all, I guess.

*shiver*

Tasteless and funny aren't the same thing? On what planet?

"But a mitigating factor at least? That's a tougher call."

What!? As the caveman in the Geico ad would say, "not cool!"

It's funny, that guy looks about how I've always pictured a large number of the commenters on this site.

Except they'd be wearing an Ace of Spades t-shirt, of course.

Well, he certainly does not look like he is the cuddling type.

O/T - Megyn's on FNC right now and it looks like she's doing an extended segment. :) It's on Aruba, unfortunately, but still. It's her.

"It's funny, that guy looks about how I've always pictured a large number of the commenters on this site"

And your point is?

Please put the claw-hammer down.

That man's got Hillary eyes.

Actually, he looks like I'd always imagined Cedarford, Don Myers (troll at Say Anything), or Zorro (troll at Cold Fury).

Batshit fucking crazy.

"Happy interlude" ?!?!?! Not that time, as evidenced by the number 70.

He reminds me a lot of what Anthony Heald looks like whenever he plays a character of great authority, like a guest judge in The Practice or as the principal in Boston Public. It's those wild-eyed wild eyes, I tell ya.

I pictured cedarford more like the cop behind him only with more chins and thicker glasses. Maybe a little adolph under the nose too.

I just happened to be perusing the Arizona death row website. They ALL look like that. I have never seen an uglier, weirder, sicker bunch of fucks in my life. They just can't kill their victims, they have to torture them first. blech.

This dude seriously needs a new hairstylist.

OT: Peter Jennings, Dead. Sad.

Yeah, this is a totally tasteless and unfunny post, but which sport did he want to watch?

(I'm guessing wrasslin')

Nah. Figure Skating I reckon.

This is one of the most depressing stories I've read about in a long time. There are people in this world who I would put in the ground without a moment of hesitation or a second of regret, but a woman who loved me and wanted to be close to me is NOT on that list. This story is going to have me feeling depressed every time I think about it, probably for the rest of my life.

Geez, Lee, don't let it get you down. He didn't really beat her to death because she wanted to snuggle, he beat her to death because he's a nutcase. If not this, it would've been because she bought salisbury steak TV dinners and he wanted fried chicken, or she used his razor on her legs, or just because.

You might hit somebody once because you're angry. You hit her seventy times with a clawhammer because you're frutty as a nootcake.

I always think guys do this stuff because they wish the woman was a dude or because they couldn't get aroused or she made fun of his unit. After all, we're only getting his side of the story--how likely would he be to tell us he was calling out, "Take it all Jeff B.! " with every thrust, eh?

It's unfortunate he couldn't find a woman who will dismiss such exclamations as passion-dementia. Ragging on a guy who keeps a claw hammer handy is just foolish.

"You might hit somebody once because you're angry. You hit her seventy times with a clawhammer because you're frutty as a nootcake."

I wish more psychiatrists were smart enough to understand this.

(zero sarcasm intended)

This account has more details of what occurred.

Includes a quote from the guys mom, who says ''My son is evil. He deserves to die.''

This guy was not insane at the time of the crime. He knew what he was doing and the consequences of his actions. Hopefully, he will waive his appeals.

I've always found the insanity "defense" utterly ridiculous.

At least his mother has her head screwed on straight. Good for her.

It's important to recognize the distinction between the legal concept of insanity, which supports a verdict of not guilty or diminished responsibility, and the layman's understanding of "nuttier than a Hickory Farms cheese log."

It is important. Very important, because the layman's understanding is more in tune with reality.

Proving again that men don't pay whores for sex, we pay them to shut up and go away after it.

Ahhh, this guys just try'na do the Charlie Manson evil eye and not very well either. He should've practiced it in front of a mirror longer, like I'd bet money they all do. But the guys on the Arizone state death row, now these guys are for real.

I once read that Arizona had a major prison riot in which prisoners tied a stooly to a chair and shoved a burning gas torch into his face until his brains boiled and his head exploded. Now that's Bad!

Hey fellas
We have all been in this position before. Not the clawhammer position but the not wanting to cuddle because the games is on. I find that in my personal life running from my wife after intercourse is fairly effective. Lately Ive put on weight and she has been working on her lunges so that mode of escape has had to be modified to the get up to pee and run like hell strategy but since she deadbolted the bathroom door. Ive just sat there in bed feeling like a cat who is being reverse petted by an overzealous 2 year old.

hmmmm .Claw hammer .......hmmmm?

Husband, wife, doesn't matter; if anything on television is more important than giving affection to your spouse, you really shouldn't be married.

And of course, if you are a fucking psychopath.

Just remember: For every clawhammer there is a pair of scissors and you guys have to sleep sometime.

Forget *bleeping* this guy. I can't believe any woman would want to marry him. He clearly has the look that should rally an intuititive response. Something like, "Yeah, uh, you might want to avoid this one."

how many times had he warned her about his priorities,how many tune-ups had she gotten before he went postal,how do we know for sure that she did't need killing.All she had to do was keep her yap shut,and we would't be talking about this today.Whatever happened to "just say no"He must have been a liberal because he did't use a gun.PS what was her weight.
