KILLED BY THE BOSS!
An Australian woman has admitted that she stabbed her husband following a row over a Bruce Springsteen CD.
Karen Lee Cooper pleaded guilty to manslaughter and will face eight years in prison for killing her partner of two years Kevin Watson at their home in Queensland in 2006.
Her charge was downgraded from murder after the court accepted she never intended to kill Watson. The court was told that Cooper, who had been drinking at their Cedar Grove home, attacked Watson with a kitchen knife after he told her to take a Springsteen album off the stereo.
In a recorded police interview, Cooper said: "I couldn't even play Bruce Springsteen on my stereo. Can you believe that? Can you believe that?"
"I mean, who doesn't like Bruce Springsteen? I'm 49 years old and I want to play my own music."
Well, exactly... Who doesn't like Bruce Springsteen? What a perfectly reasonable reason for killing your husband to death. Who doesn't like Bruce Springsteen? I'd have stabbed him, too. May he burn in hell...
