Philadelphia Man Kills Baby Over Video Game

[wraggster]

This story is really astonishingly sad.

In Philadelphia, a 25 year old man named Tyrone Spellman — who curiously goes by the name Anwar Salahuddin — punched his 17 month old daughter to death when she knocked over his console, causing him to disrupt the game.

According to the mother: "His confession was she pulled the cords in the game, the system is -- the box itself -- fell, and he was upset and then responsible for paying for the game, so he hit her in her face twice," Turman said, adding that Spellman also allegedly slung the child over a chair.

Spellman is being charged with murder, endangering the welfare of a child and possessing an instrument of crime. No word if they mean his fist, the chair or the Xbox on that last charge.

As a last note of surreality, a note was apparently left on Spellman's door, saying not to judge him because he'd never hurt a child.

What a b**tard, i would rather anything got broken than to hurt a child.

[Shadowblind]

Issues. Pathetic people do pathetic things. Violence and murder is a common thing is households these days. Its just what this sick and discusting world has come to. I cant say he doesnt deserve to live, its not my place to judge people nomatter how horrid they are and how much I think they shouldn't live. Its not our place, or anyone others then God.

When the other prisoners find out what he did, they'll probably kill him.

[Video_freak]

Shit,

I'll drive up there to puch his a$$ in the face.
Thats insane, to do that to a child....
Send him to a gay part of a prison to spend the rest of his life having fun...
That would be partial justice...
