The story goes like this. You see, there were these two guys, they were in jail in Dubuque Iowa. The one guy, Michael Kelley Jr, 29, in for attempted murder, was swapping stories with the other guy, inmate Jamie Brimeyer, 34. Kelley asked Brimeyer about his facial scar. Brimeyer started to tell the story of how he’d been stabbed in the cheek by an unknown assailant in 2005. Kelley realized that he was the one who had stabbed him and recalled the incident so well that he corrected some of Brimeyer’s recollections. As a result Brimeyer ended up reporting Kelley as his former assailant, and Kelley is now charged with assault with a dangerous weapon on top of his attempted murder charges.

I guess he’s lucky that Brimeyer didn’t turn on him and try to get pay back for the orginal scarring. Well he did get pay back but it could have been done with violence.

A Bulgarian woman who killed her son was released from prison because of terminal cancer. She then went home and killed her husband.

The woman had been sentenced to 15 years in jail for killing her 29-year-old son with a garden hoe in April 2005 while he was sleeping. However, last month, authorities judging her to be in the final stages of cancer let her go home to pass away in peace with her husband at her side. Unfortunately things must have gone terribly wrong once she was home because that was where she stabbed her husband in the throat with a knife.

“It was established she was in the last stage of cancer, she had it all over her body,” said a spokeswoman for the Bourgas regional police. They had presumed she was feeling bad and that she would treat herself and rest. Little did they know that she would become aggressive and end up killing her husband.

The woman, 57 years of age at the time of her second murder, was from a village in eastern Bulgaria and she has been taken into custody again and is awaiting a new trial.

Even in jail her aggression towards her family continues, she’s threatened that, if she is released again, she will kill her second son as well.

I kind of feel sorry for the woman. I know that cancer can change a persons personality, particularly when it affects the brain, but I bet there were some deep seated feelings of hurt and resentment that set off her murdering spree. Perhaps she’d been an abused wife and mother before becoming ill with cancer?
