(yes a right wing C/P because I didn't feel like typing out the whole thing!) Prosecutors Say Blunt Force, Sharp Objects Killed Family June 17, 2010 - 7:51 PM | by: Molly Line Prosecutors say the man accused of killing his family in a quiet Boston suburb used blunt force trauma and sharp objects to commit the murders. He then left two notes in the home confessing to the crime before fleeing. Thomas Mortimer, IV, 43, was apprehended by members of the Bernardston Police Department in western Massachusetts, more than 100 miles from the house he shared with his wife, children, and mother-in-law in Winchester. The bodies of the victims, two-year-old Charlotte Mortimer, her brother 4-year-old Thomas 'Finn' Mortimer V, their mother Laura Stone Mortimer, 41, and her mother, the children's grandmother, Ragna Ellen Stone, 64, were found late Wednesday morning following a forced entry well-being check conducted at the family residence at 2 Windsong Lane. Prosecutors say the murder was preceded by a fight between the suspect and his wife and that "ongoing marital discord" may help explain motive. Releasing grisly new details in a press conference, Middlesex District Attorney Gerard Leone described the disturbing sight that first responders came upon as they entered the home. "The medics found blood inside of the right entrance to the home which is next to the garage," said Leone. "As they went further into the home what was revealed was the first extremely disturbing observation which was 4-year-old 'Finn' and his mother both lying in a pool of blood inside of the hallway of that home." They continued into the hallway and there they found the body of Ragna Ellen Stone just off to the side in the living room "bloodied, obviously dead at that time and covered by the oriental rug which had been usually placed in the front hall inside of the front door." Police continued to follow the evidence, tracing blood up to the second floor. "That blood splatter and that blood trail led them to two-year-old Charlotte's room where she was found dead in her crib in a pool of blood," said Leone. Upon a further search of the home investigators discovered two letters. One letter was hand written, left on a coffee table. Another identical letter, in typed form, was found in the kitchen. Paraphrasing the letters, Leone says the defendant wrote "I did these horrible things. What I've done is extremely selfish and cowardly. I murdered my family." Apparent weapons have been seized from the home and prosecutors say there are signs Thomas Mortimer, IV, may have attempted to commit suicide. The defendant will be arraigned tomorrow morning in Woburn Superior Court. http://liveshots.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/06/17/prosecutors-say-blunt-force-sharp-objects-killed-family/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glitch 0 #3 June 18, 2010 I don't have an issue with it... what I do have an issue with is DHMO! This insideous shit kills thousands of people annually, causes untold amounts of property damage (is a known componant of acid rain), has been linked with obesity, and can be found in most (if not all) of the foods we eat! I just don't understand why our friendly neighborhood liberals haven't raised the roof about this... or why the media hasn't picked this up. I'm beginning to think that our govt controlled media is banned from reporting anything on this! Not surprising though... can you imagine what terrorist could do to us, if they happen to have the equilivant of a HS edumacation, and can figure out how to separate the molecule into its individual components? It's common knowledge that the separate atoms are EXTREMELY combustable! When will someone be held accountable???Randomly f'n thingies up since before I was born...

You're mischaracterizing the issue (and no I'm not getting sucked into another goddamn gun thread). Whether a person feels one way or the other about gun laws, guns have a much higher degree of efficiency, and are effective at much longer ranges, than hammers and knives. A basic rule if you want to advocate a position is not to lead off with a weak argument. Of all the potential arguments to use in favor of gun rights, "anything can kill, so why not just make everything illegal?" is a really weak argument, and won't carry the day.
