Texas isn't for the faint of heart plus she did him dirty trying to steal his money like that. He also didn't mean to kill her but it's similar to being able to kill someone that comes onto your property down there.

Woman's boyfriend turns out to be ex-husband- The Heart Beat - MSN Living

Quote:
An unidentified Minnesota woman met a nice man through an online dating site, and the two eventually established a relationship. The couple began communicating extensively, and she felt comfortable sharing intimate details about her personal life.

His name was Aaron Carpenter, and the woman opened up to him about her issues with her ex-husband. She and her ex had an ugly split in 2011 and were involved in an ongoing custody battle, she confided to Carpenter.

Turns out, Aaron Carpenter was really Brian Matthew Cornelius, the woman’s ex. Yep, Cornelius catfished his ex-wife, creating a false online identity. He now faces stalking charges and is set to appear in court next month.
This probably happens more often than gets reported though.

Kind of looks more Android-y. I'm probably more interested in the next Mac OS they announced.

I don't see what's wrong with that. I'm totally gonna pack heat if my apartment management tries to keep my pet deposit when I move out because that would be bullshit.
The weird thing is that prostitution is illegal in Texas last time I checked. I wonder if I can legally shoot a drug dealer who tries to run off with my cash without supplying my dope.

If someone is threatening my life, then it's on, but if they're just carrying off my TV then taking that person's life is completely out of proportion. No way should that be legal.

Edit: Not that I'm trying to get into some prolonged legal debate.
