Absolutly terrible, its very saddening to see what kind of evil people are out there and what they are capable of :-(

He is lucky he is not in a US state where they would give you the death penalty which is what he should have got, he will be alive whilst the poor young girl is not :-(

SPOnG I salute you. You are the ever present calm in the storm that is the world media. Well. At least when it concerns video games :)

Evil? You seem to be thinking that this man planned to kill his daughter and was in no way bothered by the act.

I would suspect that this was simply a fit of rage built up by a number of issues and topped off by the xbox incident. He lashed out without restraint and will feel utter disgust and self loathing for the rest of his life.

It's so easy to dismiss people who end up in these situations as evil, but I suspect most of us are capable of losing control every now and then, fortunately for most of us, it will never be in circumstances like this.

You cant buy marketing like this!, jk

Sadly a child has died and the sickest part of it, is the media are using that childs memory in vain to get ratings or sell more papers, who is the real monster?

I also agree that a jail sentence is more punishment than a death sentence, as he will have to live with what he has done, unitl he dies - then he will be judged!

America is gonna keep having cities where murder rates are high if they keep voting in a president who passes $300 million for educating poor kids (around $20 per child) while at the same time giving rich people an average of $287,000 in tax cuts.

Coincidentally, the USA has roughly the sae number of millionaires as it does poor kids (15 million of each). The USA would be a much better place if he'd given rich people $20 and poor people $278K.
