Well at least she didn’t shoot him.

When knives are banned only criminals will have knives.

I must say, I am terribly sorry for your loss. You have courage however, God bless you for your courage in this moment.

You are right when you say hold fast to your loved ones, the future is not certain. You alone can say “yes I have seen evil, in its actions, and in its consequences, and in its intentions.” If there is nothing less than wisdom that can be learned from that tragedy, it is in literally knowing how much is wasted because of evil.

If you are a man of the faith, I pray that there is consolation even in this suffering for you and your family. Since Christ the lord emptied himself, and took the form of a slave; being born in the likeness of men, he has shared in every kind of human suffering for us—you are not alone. Since he lives after death, look with hope the second hope of Christmas, for his second coming, when evil no longer causes suffering. I will pray for your family this night at mass, and at vespers. At Christmas vigil I will ask God for you. Come Lord Jesus, Lord Jesus come!

You will see your brother again.

Yikes...I should not have posted after reading the article, but waited to read the comments. At least in the article, there was no fatality. It does make you wonder what is going on in this world when adults in their 30s and 40s are doing this stuff.

I’m sure this can all be worked out with marital counseling.

This Misty Johnson reminded me of Clint Eastwood’s movie,PLAY MISTY FOR ME..

In a horrifying scene, he is awakened in the middle of the night in his bedroom to the sounds of ‘Misty’ being played. Evelyn, now a possessive, obsessive, murderous psychotic, appears above him with a butcher knife ready to stab him. He evades her, saving his life

Maybe the present he opened was from the person his wife thought he was having the affair with. Like her sister or best friend, or . . . . ???????

They left out the most important piece of information. What was the present? We need to determine if the gift was worth the stab wound!
