She killed her son over Farmville? I realize murdering someone over a video game is crazy, but... for some reason this just seems worse because it's due to a Facebook game.

That's so sad... :cry:
A few years back a 14-year-old boy killed a 12-year-old girl and dumped her body on a trash heap in Utrecht. She'd been teasing him by flapping with the mailslot, which disturbed him while he was getting a highscore.

I'm not sure of the details, but there was a guy in my city who killed his ex-girlfriend with his brother. I believe there was a pregnancy involved where she wanted to keep it and he didn't. I worked with all 3 of these people at McDonald's. The murderer and I were both managers and I was offering to work his shifts for him (which I did) during the time in which she was still missing. Eventually they caved and admitted it. They're both in jail now.

Could've been worse... he could have been a pig farmer. :P
