Not sure how hard it is to escape a fucking blind man with a knife, maybe all of his Stevie Wonder eye-rolling psyched her out and she bobbed when she shoulda weaved.

Anyway, this case is a year old but I couldn't find it here and it hit my feed this week because they finally convicted this guy of murder on Monday.

Not a lot to it, really. Blind dude and his 30yo wife (who was several months pregnant) were having an argument and at some point he got angry and slashed her throat with a butcher knife. Maybe he echo-located her nagging voice like a bat and had an easy avenue to the neck.

Here she is dead and giving the cleanup crew a headache.

Edit Addition: DN has sent me a link with a bit more information that includes such salient details as him completely severing her trachea. According to his statement when he was arrested, the woman often abused him, knocking him around and mocking him for being blind. He complained that she pulled the knife during the argument and while trying to wrestle it away from her, he accidentally slashed her throat to ribbons. Heh. Who needs Matt Murdock when you've got this dude's super senses?

The report also mentioned that he was apprehended while trying to flee. In a motorcar. Apparently he was still trying to jam the key into the cigarette lighter when the cops pulled up on him.

Sure was a bleeder.

I knew just by the title this was going to be a fantastic read! Thanks for the info and the laugh!

Looks like they have him hooked up to the copy machine........probably has a piece of paper on the glass that says "He's Lying!" so they can ask him a question, and then press a button and get the paper that says he's lying, and then show it to him and ask the question again.......although if he's blind, that probably won't work so well.
But I guess they can still rustle the paper a little. They could even do it with copies of a deputy's ass.

I vote this as POST OF THE YEAR!
Good lord, Vedderman, you had me laughing like crazy, and I sincerely thank you!
I don't think you get near enough appreciation from the rest of us for your biting, witty humor.
You, sir, are undeniably the backbone of DR!

Thank you. I haven't as much time as I used to have to search for things and make posts. But I try to squeeze a few in each week and am always humbled and gratified when my half-assed attempts to provide a bit of edged humor for levity are well received and don't fall flat.

Much obliged for your kindness.

Good read. I wonder whatever did he see in her

I didn't read the article before I sent it to you, so I'm confused, haha! So is he actually blind or partially blind? Or was he panicking when he attempted to drive away from the scene? How he thought that he was going to get very far is anyone's guess!

Homer didn't need eyes when he saw gleaming Troy and grasped the cruel nature of Helen
Milton stopped using his and saw Sin in mere ganglion impulse, common to vertebrate life
Borges lost his and saw clear and cold the Labyrinths, in truth, he could not envision
Euler's was obscured by 60, but he found his vision in numbers, math saved him from real strife.

Now you're probably wondering, officer, why I speak of these men, heroes of mine.
Well, I'll tell you why! Contrast! I am pathetic, weak, and so stupid. I can't even lift that knife!
Now if you'll excuse me, sir, I'm late to meet a man about a used box made of pine
Let's skip the autopsy, mysteries are good sometimes. Trust me, she was a cunt..er...my poor, dear wife

I laughed so hard it's a miracle I didn't pee my pants

Damn that's a gory crime scene! It looks like he was furious indeed. His blindness didn't seem to be an obstacle. When there's a will, there's a way
