Woman finds boyfriend's porn stash, decides to change things up and blasts him in the face
with a gun

http://cbs2chicago.com/topstories/local_story_276092218.html

Bond was set at $600,000 Tuesday for a 58-year-old woman charged with fatally shooting her long-time live-in boyfriend during a Sunday morning dispute over pornography in their South Side home.

Jeanette Strowder is charged with the murder of Jesse Martin, Chicago Police said Monday. She appeared Tuesday before Cook County Criminal Court Associate Judge Raymond Myles, who set bond at $600,000, according to Cook County State's Attorney's office spokesman Andy Conklin.

(snip)

On Sunday morning, Strowder allegedly found at least one CD with nude photos of women and confronted Martin in their home about 10 a.m. She then allegedly got a gun and shot him multiple times, including twice in the head, according to prosecutors. The 54-year-old man was later pronounced dead on the scene, the Cook County Medical Examiner's office said.

2. Yikes.
A CD with pictures? Maybe it wasn't porn porn... but amateur porn... the kind illicit lovers send back and forth...

I just can't imagine someone going that apeshit over porn.

3. "at least one CD" hardly seems like a porn "stash" to me
The question is, did she stumble over it accidentally, or was she looking for it (suspicious).

And geez, nude women? Good thing she didn't go near his hard drive.

She sounds like a couple pistons ain't firing right to begin with, so to speak.

7. The article isn't clear, but it sounds like this was his home-made porn
It's no excuse for murder, but a shooting over multiple infidelities is a far less shocking story than if it was over a Penthouse or something...

12. Where do you get that 'it sounds like home made?'
Nothing in the article even hints at that. All it says is "at least one CD containing..." Quite a leap from that to "sounds like it was home made porn." Sounds to me like a CD with some porn on it.

13. From the part where she scratches one of the women's nicknames on his car
Sounds like she knows them, and in more than a 'reading an actress' name off the credits' kind of way...

35. Hmm, that is a new wrinkle
It still seems like an odd thing to scratch unless she actually knew the model. However, judging what is or isn't "odd" for a person who blows away her boyfriend is an iffy proposition.

I'd be surprised if anyone committed murder over 'normal' porn, which is why I assume it was homemade, but there could be a lot of other things going on as well. (Or she might just have a homicidal hatred of porn.)

15. Sounds like she wanted "Suicide by cop"...
She was waving an empty revolver at the cops.

Sure sounds like the porn on the CD wasn't anonymous, that's for sure. I don't think she's an uber-moral person, because she's been 'living in sin' with this guy for two years and been having sex outside of the blessings of marriage for 14 years before that.

She must have known at least one person on that CD personally...

You think someone's immoral by definition if they have sex outside of marriage? :shrug:

(or did I miss the sarcasm?)

49. Ah, should have put it in quotes
:smackforehead:

Since I've done both for extended periods of time, I'm not inclinded to throw stones while I'm in my glass house... :-)

I was just making the point that since her lifestyle didn't reflect a set of super-fundie Talibornagain Christian morals, I doubt the mere sight of simple pornography made her RISE UP in righeous ANGER (amen brother!) and BECOME the INSTURMENT of GOD, to SMITE THE SINNER DOWN (amen brother!) in a fit of BIBLICAL JUSTICE!!!!!




Unless, of course, it was kiddie porn. If it was, well, then I can't blame her.

23. Repeat after me, Jeanette: pornography good, shooting people in the head bad.
The stupid harridan is seriously unhinged. Now, she'd have had something to worry about if she'd found his stash of gay porn, but it still wouldn't have been an excuse to shoot him. Lock her up for ever!

I once considered putting Tiger Balm in my ex's shaving cream, when I found a batch of erotic letters to someone else on his hard drive (we were married at the time), but shooting a guy in the face? Need a course in Anger Management, lady?

Ben Gay on steroids, if you will. Can you imagine getting it on a shaving cut? That would smart!

But I didn't do it, just thought about it. For one thing, it would have been wrong. For another, how does one get that stuff into an aerosol can?

It's too bad the woman in the OP didn't think of it, and a point to your credit that you chose not to (I assume your reason for not doing it was more then just the technical difficulty, right? :) )

48. Dayum. Got a bit of an attitude, does she?
She's shit herself if she looked through my old video tapes or my hard drive. I keep finding porn I saved in the damnedest places while I wasn't thinking. Uhm, she'd probably kill me too.

Note to self, in case I get the latest object of my affection to like me back:
Hide the porn much much better than it is hidden now.
