Neighbor killed his wife

I don't want to sound condescending, but why is it that women, who themselves have drinking problems, most invariably find the crappiest kind of husbands? It's not that everybody has to be married. If they have such poor spouse-choosing skills, it's better they stay single. Now, about the issue at hand, the lady had a drinking problem which had made her health vulnerable, but if only her husband had been strong, not only would he have allowed his wife to stoop to such levels, but he would have gotten her professional help. In this case, the husband himself was in need of professional help and that meant that the happy days of the lady were well over.

That is sad. If they had not been drinking the results could have been better or could it have been. In any case, it's sad that marriages have violence in them. I'm so glad my 2nd husband that does not beat up on me and listens to me.

It is sad but it is what happens when tempers flare, someone does not mean to do something but once they do then they have to take the consequences of their action. Once it is done it can not be taken back and now he will have to live with that the rest of his life it is awful!

Recently something like this happened around here too. This guy was a compulsive abuser, used to fight his wife all the time from what I understand. He owns a business (grocery store/gas station) and killed his wife in the store one evening. He is currently free and running his store. He had a court appearance and was released. His children have left him and gone home to Iraq. But this guy is free right now!!!!! I suppose he has to go back to court but he is living his life right now and isn't imprisoned like he justly deserves. It just seems completely unfair when my brother is doing a seventeen year bid for possession. I guess if he would've killed someone he would've got a lighter sentence.

Oh! How terrible it is?! Well, the wife has also did a mistake maybe if she is not drunk then maybe she still alive right now.. But of course the guy shouldn't do that since she was a girl.. Anyway, what happen to the husband?? Is he accused to kill his wife?? Is he in prison already?? Does he really kill his wife?? Or it just an accident?? Husband don't have the right to beat or hurt their wife since they didn't marry a girl just to have a punching bag.. Obviously, the husband don't truly love his wife because if he really love his wife then even he is very angry he won't do something that will hurt his wife and obviously that he is an irresponsible husband.. Well, I'll make sure that I won't choose a husband like him because he is not worthy for my love and to be love...

Thats shocking. How did you know they were cussing? and drunk? There are a lot of situation like that at our country mostly on squaters area.

It is sad but it makes you think is it worth drinking. Drinking alters one's mind and mood. That's a known fact. I have a problem with drinking, which I am getting help for. My husband and I went through something similiar, luckily the outcome wasn't as bad and I am still alive. He went to jail in July for attempted murder, after numerious neighbors heard the fighting they called the police. He choked me until I couldn't breath and kicked me up and down my legs pulling out much of my hair. No this is not the first time we had fought like this, and yes everytime we dirink it becomes a fight. I am greatful after hearing this and other stories like this that I am still alive. I am sad for the victim in this case and even for the man as he probably dosen't remember doing it. But again there is a blame isue for many people. "if it wasn't for the drinking this wouldn't have happened", I don't think thats true, It may have happened regardless, and let's not forget that it did happen what ever the contributing factors. What about the people who loved them both, what about the other lives this incident has caused. Pray for them that they be okay. The living have to live with this.

Yikes! That's too bad, did you know him very well?

Hey, That is just way too sad story and uncalled for . no one should have to die like that . drinking makes us do all sorts of crazy things , and for some people it makes them the real true crazy . I wonder if they always were fighters ? just so sad .

ohh that's too bad... maybe both of them were at the peak of their rage especially if the man is drunk. ohh my... i just hope people would think first before getting into an argument...which leads to a fight.

What an unfortunate incedent. My psychotic ex boyfriend nearly did the same thing to me. He hit my head on a corner of a wall and I have a two inch long scar about 1/4 inch right above my temple. He had split my head open and it was bleeding and everything. I am quite fortunate that he didn't kill me. When people fight like that, it's never good. I am very sorry to hear about what happened to your neighbor.

Don't resort to violence to solve any problem. It is too dangerous, especially in family. The privacy of a family prevents others know the violence.

oh my goodness.....well i guess thats what he gets for throwing stuff. It is sad though. SIT DOWN & TALK PEOPLE! This will help you not to accidentally kill someone in the future.

Do you think it'll be a lesser charge or a lesser sentence because she was drunk herself? I feel like that should be taken into consideration.. that she did bodily harm to herself first---(duh he shouldn't of thrown something at her) but her blood was thin due to her own fault. I dunno just playing devils advocate!

The husband should go to jail for many years. He has no right to beat his wife or anything. Drunk or not, he has no right to hurt his wife in the first place. I cannot understand why husbands would beat their wives and why wives would allow such things to happen. Domestic violence is an ugly thing. It shakes the foundation of the family and should never be tolerated no matter what the circumstances may be.

What an unfortunate situation, and this man has to live it for the rest of his life. He probably was so drunk he did not realize what he was doing. I am sure after he sobered up, he probably felt so bad about what happened. That is why people should not drink to the point of getting drunk. I wonder if they had children and what will now happen to them if they did. So sad.

O M G.! That is awful. I can't imagine the thought of what the families are going through. One of them could have left before it came to that point in there marriage. Throwing things at one another.

I am sorry to hear that things can happen so fast. Now just within a few minutes people whole life can change. He is in big trouble now and probably sent away for the rest of his life.

That is really sad. It is common that sometimes people lose their thinking power when they are very angry, at that time they can do anything for which he or she might repent for rest of the life. That is why in every religion patience has been taught. There is no other virtue could be replaced by the virtue of patience. One must not say or act anything when he is very angry, definitely the action or saying will be wrong. Proverb goes on saying that before saying or doing anything when you are angry, count up to 10, take deep breaths.

Oh wow what a bad situation! That's so sad that "innocent" people can make one little mistake and end up costing someone's life. You know he probably didn't mean to kill her, but he did kill her. That must be such a load of guilt to have to live with, I don't know if I could live with something like that sitting on my shoulders. It reminds me of stories you hear about people that have been drinking and driving and get in a car accident and end up killing an innocent person out on the roads. Those are such sad, preventable situations that truly break my heart.
