Well, if he opted to burn clothes instead of shooting them, that signals to me that he brought himself from the brink and channeled his rage into something less violent and destructive than murder.

Psychopaths don't tend to have those kinds of filters.

Burning their clothes was a nice touch.
I laughed about the burning clothes thing.

This is a little different from your standard teacher-Fing-her-student issue. To me, a kid that goes to live with a couple, and where the 'wife' is not repulsive, and offers the kid a few 'side-benefits', you can't really blame the kid for taking her up on the offer.


This sort of thing always baffles me. I don't know many men who, if their wife asked for more frequent sex, wouldn't be more than willing to go for it.

From her picture, no.

But she IS sensual. They were using "candles and oils."

Wanting to pull a gun and actually doing it are totally different things.

Between his hot temper and her affinity for minors, I'd say the two deserve each other. What a mess.

Psycopathic is probably the wrong word. Inexcusable, sure. Irrational, absolutely.

Now this is where I say, "here we go again." This has been hashed out before on this site, but I just got to say that if the husband was a proctor father doing a 16-year-old girl you would not make the same statement. There's a double standard where there shouldn't be.

Pulling a gun in that situation is psychopathIC. The fact that he burned their clothes may demonstrate that he is not a psychopath but it does not classify his gun brandishing behavior as non-psycopathic.

Too bad he couldn't have been more like Mr. Arthur Pewtey.

I'm not aware of a more effective way of saying "get off my wife and the hell out of my home".

I guess I'm in the minority here, but while probably not the right thing to do, pulling a gun in this situation is understandable. Shooting it is another matter, but brandishing it is not inexcusable. The judge should give him a slap on the wrist.
