Re: Bizarre sex slaying & mutilation of Robert Beckowitz :Dumbest People Alive
As i start all my posts, apologies if this is a repost. Participants: James Edward Glover, 37 at the time, the tattooed shooter; Jeannine Lynn ("Charlie") Clark, 21 at the time, the woman in the middle; Robert Beckowitz, forever 33, the unfortunate object of their attentions. Synopsis: Detroit, Michigan, Wednesday, July 14, 1982. Lovers, of dubious mentation, award the woman's boyfriend a jacketed bullet to the back of the head with a large caliber handgun. They then photograph each other as they dismember the corpse and arrange the various bits. All participants are nude. It is unsure if the nudity was pre- or post- mortem. Not that it makes any real difference. Ain't love grand? Discovery and Arrest: Two versions of what happened next have been held out as real. One version states that the loving couple take the film to be developed, and the clerk, seeing what's on the film, calls the police. However, the following appears to fit the known facts better: Four days later, July 19, 1982: Jeannine cracks, turns herself in to police, and tries to cut herself a deal. She tells the Detroit P.D. that her current lover, Jimmy, was the sole perpetrator, and that he forced her to participate in both the murder and following dismemberment. Pictures were taken and the camera is still in the house. The police go and arrest Jimmy, seize the camera, and develop the film. Charlie's smiling face as she takes a hacksaw to her former boyfriend's neck seriously undermines her credibility, however. She is eventually arrested and charged as well. Does the phrase "bright as a box of rocks" ring a bell? Aftermath: November 30, 1982 James Edward Glover pleads guilty to the charges and is awarded: Not less than 30 nor more than 50 years at a Michigan house of many doors, to be determined later. Further, the judge recommends he not be considered for parole or furlough before the minimum sentence is served. He could be out as early as 2012, at age 67. February 2, 1983 Jeannine Lynn Clark is convicted of mutilating a corpse. February 23, 1983 She is awarded: Not less than 80 months [nearly 7 years] nor more than 10 years at a Michigan gray bar hotel to be determined later. Now 38, she is out of prison.
