Man Shoots Wife Dead Trying To Install TV

Thursday March 27, 2008

A man who tried to use a gun to install a satellite television system ended up shooting his wife dead by accident.


The correct way to install dish

Ronald Long tried to make a hole in the exterior wall of his house in Missouri, US, to install the dish for the system. After several unsuccessful attempts, he got a .22-calibre handgun and blasted two holes in the wall. The second bullet hit his wife, Patsy, in the chest, fatally wounding her. She was standing outside the house at the time, but Long reportedly thought she was inside.

Officials are now trying to determine whether to file charges against him. Sheriff's Department spokesman Major Robert Hills said a person involved in such a case normally would be charged with manslaughter, but that was up to the prosecutor. "Once we complete a diagram of the incident, we will be submitting everything to the prosecuting attorney and let him decide if he wants to press criminal charges," he said.

Maybe thieves will shoot holes in gas tanks to siphon gas instead of drilling them.

Natural Selection is beautiful, isn't it?

Even if it hasn't been able to kill the actual dumbass (yet), at least it has taken out someone who chose to have the dumbass's kids.

Harsh, and uncalled for.  I highly doubt she did anything to deserve to die.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  Especially if they have access to the internet.

Man kills wife because she turned off TV

Published: March 19, 2008 at 7:33 PM

ROSTRAVER, Pa., March 19 (UPI) -- A Pennsylvania man faces 40 years in prison after admitting in court that he was driven to kill his wife after she turned off the television set.

Thomas Gay Wickerham, 58, of Rostraver, Pa., gave no reason for killing his wife as their children looked on, other than an argument about the TV, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported.

"I went berserk. She made me shoot her," Wickerham told authorities.

Wickerham pleaded guilty to a third-degree murder charge and awaits a June sentencing in Westmoreland County by Judge Rita Hathaway.

Wickerham was drunk when he opened fire on his wife, Katherine, 48, in February 2005, said defense attorney Amy Keim. He chose to enter a guilty plea for the safety of his relatives, she said.

"He has five kids and they were there when it happened. He didn't want to put them through a trial," Keim said.

Yeah, a trial would really send them all over the edge. Good thing he was a concerned parent.
