I've just been reading the blog of this evil, evil, man who murdered his poor wife eight days after their wedding & traveled the world on the proceeds. He was only arrested when he chose to return to the UK. Words fail.

Shocking story!
Yes, he kept them at bay by faking her emails. Still odd, though.
Either way, it's horrible. I'm desperately sorry for the victim and her family.
I'd like to think it was a guilty conscience but who knows?
Well no not really that is just understanding the difference between fiction and real life surely? I mean I quite like the odd horror movie, but the idea of someone actually being chopped up with a chainsaw doesn't really work for me.
Vile man. Hope he gets the whole life tariff he deserves.
Yes that's my point, how it's not the act per se, but the "realness" of the act. How in different contexts the same essential scenario elicits greatly different emotional responses.
Us humans are weird creatures in that respect.
Well....yes. Its because in the first example, no one has been hurt, whereas the second someone did get hurt.
I don't think this one is that weird tbh, it's just the basic knowledge of whether what you are watching is real or not and responding appropriately based on that fact. We are sufficiently sophisticated to be able to do that (for the most part).
Not going to argue that human beings are weird in many respects though, a quick glance out of the window can confirm that at any time:)
He was jailed for a minimum of 30 years.
Not really, she could've met him anywhere.
More like a cautionary tale of being unfortunate to bump into a psychopath.
It reads like a film script, and I wish it was a work of fiction. Poor Debbie.
The blog is clearly delusional, but it also just seems so ordinary and prosaic. It's terrifying to think that a psychopath can present in a completely normal sort of a way.
