Usual apologies for source, none for the thread title. No idea how to title this one, so we'll leave it at wtf.

Precis: Convicted killer on bail breaks into house of girlfriend, murders her, then cooks and eats various parts of her body.

Why does everyone apologise for reading the mail ? What's so hard about not reading it if you don't like it ? I don't particularly like it , but I don't feel the need to say sorry if I am and link a story.

Why indeed do people apologise for reading the Mail? If you must, because you feel it isn't entirely objective perhaps, then why do we not also apologise for linking the Guardian and BBC too? They are no more objective.

It's because of the general snobbishness of PH'ers. It's classed as a rag you wouldn't wipe your arse on by PH'ers yet everyone on PH appears to read it and they all feel it necessary to apologise for posting links to it.

Basically sad middle aged woman gets a thrill from going out with a convicted murderer, the bad boy thing probably turned her on, shame it came back to bite her in the ass (and organs and brain)

I really struggle to feel ANY sympathy for women who go out with psycho's, they are quite happy to have a 'hardman' on they're arm but as soon as she gets the beating she thinks he is a monster

The OP should be apologising more for the crap thread title than where the link is from.

He's basically saying (and I agree) that if women want to date nutcases then they should expect the worst. Doesn't mean what happened was any less abhorrent or that the guy doesn't need a bullet through the skull.

Amazing how some people can know everything about the victim from an article.

You know what I mean (tho reading back what I wrote it does sound particularly harsh)
Going by the article he had previously served time for killing a girlfriend, so what made this woman decide it would be a good idea to get in tow with him??

On saying I had NO sympathy I mean come on girls if you play with fire you will get burned, if you go out with a idiot/hardman who likes getting in trouble, chances are you may find trouble yourself, it's a shame no doubt but why put yourself in that position.

You know, he could have neglected to mention he had killed his previous lover?

No, it really is an appalling rag that panders repeatedly to the lowest common denominator. If you believe that to be snobbishness, then fair enough. But here is a great example, two in fact. I wonder if you will spot them?

That is indeed possible and be that the case then this is a horrific case and you have to feel for the victim.
However this being America what are the chances she was one of the many women who write too and fall in love with Murderers behind bars.

The Article does not explain everything but my comments were on the assumption that mad woman meets mad man, however if it turns out that she did not know of his past then obviously I retract my previous (in poor taste) comments.

But she thought she could change him, she sensed that underneath his mean and callous exterior was a rough diamond, a potentially lovely person.

In reality, his rough exterior was merely hiding a person who was even more psychotic and rough than anyone ever considered ....

Although this sort of thing does make me think of updating my POF and Tinder description to be "not an axe wielding murderer".

I think you are jumping to conclusions, the previous killing happened in another state and she may have been unaware of it. Furthermore the linked article to the US paper says that she had phoned the police at 3am that day as he was trying to break in to her house so it seems that she did not want him near her.
