That’s what hit me most. She appears to have been single as there was not mention of a spouse in either article.

To just snap like that for no apparent reason is pretty bizarre.

Cokehead. Figures.

I'm gonna guess he demanded she tell him where she kept her money and jewelry. She refused. So he hit her with a mallet. Too hard, as it turned out.

It's a good reminder for elderly people to have someone else with them if they're expecting an appliance delivery or a workman they're unfamiliar with.

Wonder why he would then set her on fire if this was just about robbery? something in this kid's mind just snapped.

What was that drug that supposedly caused those face-biting incidents? Bath salts or something that is not detectable.

I keep someone nearby at all times.

Their names are Smith and Wesson.

Good heavens, that could have been me. Old, female, single, and just had a washer/dryer set delivered from Best Buy 2 weeks ago. However, mine were delivered in their own truck. I would be suspicious if it was another delivery company because here, at least, Best Buy delivers and installs their own stock. Of course, their own people could be murderers as well. That poor woman.

If you see some of the “delivery” people that come to deliver....you wouldn’t open the door if you didn’t see the box box van.
