Man Kills Baby to finish a video game :(

Man kills baby over a videogame, pleads guilty | Destructoid offers reviews, previews, trailers, cheats, and more.


From the funny stupid, to the sad stupid.

This man is a disgrace to the human race...

He could have taken the time to put it to sleep not actually kill the thing...

I haven't read the article yet, but... What?!
What kind of person would do that...

I'll post again once I've read it.

Oh my lord...

It's a video game, dammit. The baby is more important.

:< no!

stories like this make me so sad. that poor baby, that stupid jerk. it makes me want to be physically ill.

WHAT THE ****!!!!

What's wrong with this guy!! I mean seriously WHAT THE ****!!!!!!
Did he really think that shaking and hitting the baby would be the best solution for it's crying!

This is disgusting! And I hope that guy goes to jail for being a retard!

What king of a sick homicidal mother ....... would do such a thing?

It's not outrageos... it's just sad.

Honestly, I'm not that surprised. Despicable? Yes. Insane? Yes. Darwin Awards bizarre? I don't think so.

People obsess over things, and video games are one of them. It was only a matter of time.

Well, I just read the article, and have one thing to say:
He probably didn't mean for it to happen. Maybe he didn't think he shook the baby enough to kill it, and just thought that it stopped crying because it didn't liked being shooken and got the picture. Maybe he was really angry at something else, and hadn't relieved his stress yet(which was why he was playing the game).

But, then again, maybe he did. We don't know.

He was given a voluntary manslaughter charge, so the courts deemed it to be an accident pertaining to him most likely losing control and killing the child by accident.

So yeah.

I've killed a man for less...

One word: stupid.

I like video games, but have never killed to finish one.

okay i kill the final boss but that isn't the same

He was probably playing GTA, and it was definitely the game's fault. It corrupted his mind and made him capable of killing a baby. Violent Video games should be banned.



/eyeroll.

Just wait for it.

>.<

I'm not going to read the article.
Really. My preference would be that you wouldn't even post such horrible, tragic news blurbs.

That makes it sound as if this is the first time it's happened.

This thread needs a little more HD programming.

It'll be only a matter of time until the media says something like "Video games causes people to kill!"

I hope somebody kills him in prison.

He could of just turned up the volume or close the door. Sure, it's bad babysitting, but it's better than violently shaking a newborn baby (18 days) proceeded by a blow to its head.

Throw that disgusting man behind bars. Let them give him the ultimate punishment. Heck, he should be given the death penalty!

I look after small children and hearing their cries immediately makes me to go and look after them so well. They cry for a reason and it is definately not to annoy you. They need food or a sleep. You don't just ****** shake them till they die. He must have damaged the vital organs to keep the poor thing alive, as well as brain damage... **** sake. And babies are the cutest things ever. Why the heck would you kill them? They are basically going to be an adult in a few years. That is just murder!

Video games are just taking this man way too far. Babies are always first for crying out loud!

It's because of articles like this that I'm losing faith in humanity.

I know what you mean. From the second I opened the page I wasn't pulled into the reading. Through all three paragraphs (which is a pretty lame amount anyway) I felt like it should have been a lot better.

I wish people could be taught better.
