Guy with fake legs from Olympics kills girlfriend [View all] cbdo2007 Feb 2013 OP

"Guy with fake legs from Olympics kills girlfriend" Dpm12 Feb 2013 #1

The man has a name obamanut2012 Feb 2013 #2

I know, but the average person isn't going to recognize his name. cbdo2007 Feb 2013 #7

Ummm...another DUer took care of that by quoting a headline earlier-- ScreamingMeemie Feb 2013 #11

That's why I reposted. Nobody knew who he was by name, and he killed his girlfriend. cbdo2007 Feb 2013 #12

There's actually two threads that mention the arrest. ScreamingMeemie Feb 2013 #13

"fake legs" is hardly accurate. Sekhmets Daughter Feb 2013 #27

Interesting that he posted in that very thread with the following: demmiblue Feb 2013 #33

That's disgusting-- ScreamingMeemie Feb 2013 #35

Ugh -- thanks for posting this obamanut2012 Feb 2013 #38

Most will, and "Blade Runner: is being used in headers obamanut2012 Feb 2013 #24

The name is clearly shown in the post Orrex Feb 2013 #8

And? obamanut2012 Feb 2013 #25

Meaning it's clear that he has a name and that his name is given in the post. Orrex Feb 2013 #26

Meaning the OP's header is still distasteful at best obamanut2012 Feb 2013 #36

Undoubtedly, but not because the alleged killer's name was omitted Orrex Feb 2013 #41

Lol @ "fake legs" Puzzledtraveller Feb 2013 #3

Maybe he thought she was a Replicant. Orrex Feb 2013 #4

Reports are saying he mistook her for an intruder and then allegedly opened fire. Lint Head Feb 2013 #5

And shot her four times, two of the shots to the head... ScreamingMeemie Feb 2013 #6

Yeah, I saw that Puzzledtraveller Feb 2013 #9

Please forgive me but it has to be said. Lint Head Feb 2013 #18

Based on his past history of domestic violence not likely thinking she was an intruder. LiberalFighter Feb 2013 #23

That's his story pinboy3niner Feb 2013 #10

They're called prosthetics, just in case you didn't know. nt. OldDem2012 Feb 2013 #15

I'm quite sure any DUers who have to use prosthetics are very amused by your "humor". nt. OldDem2012 Feb 2013 #20
