iPod Used In Domestic Homicide

MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE (HLN) - A Memphis woman was arrested
and charged with first-degree murder after she bludgeoned her
boyfriend to death with an iPod.

According to law officers, Mathers was hysterical when police
arrived and told them that she killed her boyfriend only after
he accused her of illegally downloading music and erased about
2,000 of her MP3s. Mathers complained that it took 3 months to
build her music collection.

“It took him a while to die,” Dr. Klamut said. “She
must have stabbed him 40 to 80 times with that iPod. His death
was not instantaneous, that’s for sure”

Are we serious about this? Woman kills boyfriend with iPod? How, exactly, do you stab someone with an iPod? Bludgeoning, that I understand. Although, isn't there something more handy than your iPod? Couldn't you have strangled him with his headphone cord? A lot quicker, and less effort.

I mean, frankly, I have an iPod mini, which is just that; and it probably weighs about 2oz. That's part of the appeal: how tiny, and non-lethal they would be. Although I think Steve Jobs might be proud to hear that the iPod could take such a beating. The question is, did it still play the music he had stolen after he was dead and gone?

The kids these days, man. Lotta anger there.
