Notice Anything?

Here we have a chap in America, the head of a TV company, whose attractive wife of eight years got sick of his constant violence towards her and filed for divorce. Six days later he killed her. He stabbed her to death and then beheaded her.

Is it all just a matter of geography, do you think?

    Apart from obsessively controlling men who could not face loss of control That seems to be a common theme, I'll give you that.

  3. He first stabbed, then beheaded her, and it only counts as SECOND degree murder???

    What, pray, does one have to do in the US to get top marks??

  4. Jim - fair point, although it's the beheading that makes this uniquely savage. I've only heard the word 'beheading' used (outside of history books) by one ethnic group recently. It seems to be their stock reaction to serious disagreement or disobedience. Without that barbaric touch, this would have passed unnoticed.

    Microdave - perhaps there were mitigating circumstances, like she was female or something.
