My oldest brother was murdered in July of this year. All we knew of his death was that his throat was slit, resulting in his death. We had the preliminary hearing for his alleged murderer a few days ago. Though there were no pictures (those will be provided at the jury trial), the DA described his injuries as follows: multiple blunt force injuries, multiple stab wounds, a slit throat, broken ribs, and a broken neck. WTF! It is being treated as first degree premeditated murder. The murderer bragged about his deeds to several people. Guilty as hell. Can’t wait for him to rot.

I remember seeing a post on reddit some years back wherein a man and a woman had committed suicide together with a revolver, possibly a .44. The case was unusual to me because the woman was on top of the man, in a bed, basically straddling and hugging him. He had shot her through the back, spine and heart, and had similarly been injured, through the front of the chest, with the bullet coming to rest, perhaps, in his spine. I want to say that the case occurred somewhere in western or northern Europe. If I remember correctly, both victims had toxicological findings that indicated the presence of amphetamines, and possibly alcohol. I found the circumstances memorable, haunting, disturbing, and deliberate enough to stick in my mind and come back to mind with some frequency, but now I can't find the post. Does anybody have any recollection of what I'm referring to?
