iPod Used in Domestic Murder!
A Memphis woman was arrested and charged with first-degree murder after she bludgeoned her boyfriend to death with an iPod. [...]
Brad Pulaski had died of blunt trauma to the head after being repeatedly bludgeoned with an iPod, a popular MP3 player produced by Apple. [...]
Police said no motive has been confirmed, although evidence suggested the murder was the result of a domestic dispute after Pulaski erased the contents of Mathers’ 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”

;-) Sshhhh!
To be honest, I didn’t realise the other day when I read this and nearly posted it… then as I was posting it into WP I saw the URL.
I think I’ll take it out of the “World News” category to make it less… erm, believable. I couldn’t resist the iPod angle though. :)
Note to self: Don’t immediately post a response, wait and see if you have anything else to say.
