Man murdered wife for changing Facebook status to 'single'
Will Pavia

A man murdered his estranged wife after he became �enraged� that she had changed her marital status to single on the social networking site Facebook.

Edward Richardson, 41, was found guilty of stabbing to death Sarah Richardson, 26, a hairdresser, in her parents� house in Staffordshire on May 12 last year.

Fiona Cortese of the Crown Prosecution Service said: �Richarsdon became enraged when Sarah changed her marital status on Facebook to single and decided to go and see her as she was not responding to his messages.�

Stafford Crown Court heard that Richardson, a carpenter from Biddulph, Stoke-on-Trent, had sought out Mrs Richardson in her parents house and entered by breaking the front door window.

�Once inside he found Sarah in her bedroom and subjected her to a frenzied and brutal attack with a knife and then attempted to take his own life,� said Ms Cortese.

She said: �We hope that today�s guilty verdict will go some way to easing the pain of Sarah�s friends and family after losing her in such a violent and abrupt way.�

Beryl and Alan Boote, the parents of Mrs Richardson, issued a statement after the verdict. �There simply aren�t the words to describe how Sarah�s death, and the awful way in which she died, has affected us,� they said. �We miss her so much. Sarah was the loveliest daughter anyone could wish for. She was honest, loyal and sweet, and everyone loved her.�

That's why we need guns. If someone smashes one of my windows in they get shot.

Why would you want to do that? Much safer to shoot a mofo.

Apparently not...

This article is shit. Were they separated? Broken up? In a fight?

I remember there was another case like this - the couple got into a fight and the wife left the guy and then within hours she was "single" on facebook and he killed her for it. At least in that case, they separated.

Obviously murder is not the right reaction here, but still, what the fuck is it with these women needing to announce it to the whole world? Attention whoring much?

"enraged"? as opposed to what? "mildly irritated"?

Well, if you have a rifle, it means that you live in Texas or some place like that where guns are easy to find. In such a situation though, the victim would have a higher chance to lose a fight, since the potential murderer would also have a nasty gun. This would mean that the potential killer would instantly break-in and shoot you right in the ass without leaving you any chances of reacting. In cotnrast, if guns are hard to find (like in Europe), the potential murderer should use a knife or something like that (like in this case) so if you are afraid, you could grab a knife as well and let the best fighter win! Knife-2-Knife > Passive death by gun

Why are you always trying to be serious in here. This is the CoR. Everyone else seems to understand I'm just fucking around.
