Not sure if this is a repost or not ;)

Mother: Father Killed Child Over Video Game


"His confession was she pulled the cords in the game, the system is -- the box itself -- fell, and he was upset and then responsible for paying for the game, so he hit her in her face twice," Turman said, adding that Spellman also allegedly slung the child over a chair.


That is just sad :(

So he killed a 17 month old because she broke his video game console, or just unplugged it? I hope the guy spends the rest of his life in prison :thumbsdown:.

Sad, but it's too bad another child is already on the way with this man's genes.

That is very sad. It is almost a Darwin Award because he killed his own offspring, except that the mother has another on the way.

This will undoubtedly be used as an excuse to legislate a requirement for all future gaming consoles to have cordless controllers, and all wired controllers to be recalled and replaced with wireless versions.

Maybe if she spent her time not having so many damn babies with scumbags this wouldn't have happened. Another on the way? And then what? Another, and another, and another.

I hope that guy rots in prison for what he did. There is no excuse for trying to punish a 17 month old kid. Seriously fvcked up. "Oh, she's not breathing"

His lawyer's defense is going to be "It was justified- the baby unpluged the game just as Zelda was about to kill the final monster!"

But the article says, "She said she fell in love with a man who had never been violent before."
