Woman Decapitated in Downtown Jacksonville Neighborhood!!!

Funny how the OP turned this heinous crime into a discussion about downtown getting a bad rep due to incorrect reporting.

Is hate not a form of passion.

If a crime committed to change future behavior is a hate crime, I'm guessing the victim's behavior will be a-changin'.

But sorry... wrong thread.

RIP, and let us hope the son finds peace and forgiveness, after he is summarily executed.

Sounds like it to me...

+1 True which disgusts me a bit.


I hope this guy burns for what he did to her.

The thing that struck me was seeing the whole family on TV coming out in support of the son. And not a tear for the mother. Makes me wonder about the mother and the whole background  ... although nobody deserves to be decapitated.

I dunno ... Guess the boy lost his head.

I agree with JC. I had brought up the news errors on my first post as a minor sidenote thinking that was gonna be the end; Then on my second post, I put in the mother/son link, and after that people were STILL talking about the damn directions!

After 911 I said that I wasn't gonna be shocked by anything else, but I truly found this shocking a son beheading his mother. This is stuff that you often hear about in Arab countries, not the USA.

Forget about the location; a brutal, senseless murder/killing of a human life, and the scenario of Son killing Mother is strange, lewd, and lavicious to say the least.  "My Mother is in a better place;" sounds like she didn't care anything for the Mother, so, something sinister happened along the way, i.e., in these children's past and upbringing between the Mother and her Children, especially the Son who killed her; maybe drugs, sexual molestation, etc., you just never know these days.

Having spent three days at the city marina Downtown for the Jacksonville Boat Show I listened to many discussions regarding "downtown". Nothing positive.

maybe you should listen to some of the visitors at the Hyatt and The Landing.

in fact, I had 3 people visiting this weekend from Atlanta who had never been here....they loved being able to sit outside at a restaurant on the river and watch sports on big screen TVs!

The City Dock Boat Show was created by a person from Colorado who happened to be simply driving through Jacksonville-he was so enthralled by Downtown Jacksonville that he made a U-turn,explored and inked a contract with the city.
He too has since faded from the scene.
It saddens me to note not much positive outlook by so many who engage with Downtown.Much of the frustration stems from wonderment over dashed potential.
I could share the theme of the comments-but likely to no avail.

When I was an intern at a district attorney's office during law school I went to an autopsy.  A mother had been shot by her son with a shotgun.  He stood above her and fired at her head/neck while she slept in bed.  The buckshot didn't have time to spread, so you can imagine what that looked like.  Apparently she wouldn't allow him to go on his Senior HS Class cruise to Mexico, and he didn't so much care for that parenting decision.

Sometimes you cannot explain things.  Some people are just crazy.  That's pretty much all you can say and then you have to move on.  I would imagine this was probably something similar, a legitimately disturbed child who didn't care for some "ruling" mom made and decided to express his displeasure in a way that sane people find appalling.

The Media and fire have much in common.  An irresponsible Media can be as wild and destructive as fire.

The community is very proud of MetroJacksonville, the city's #1 source for news!

Stephen, you better be nice to me, or I will not post my latest video of an individual being blocked into a parking space by a Parking Enforcement vehicle and booted while he sits in his car.

Would this be better: "Woman Decapitated in Downtown Jacksonville Neighborhood!!!"? 

[JC]

I cant believe we are not discussing the two most important subjects here. 

The dead woman minus the head

and

someones broken priority queue

We should never underestimate Stephen's appreciation and appetite for Greek Culture.

Cafe Cassandra... has a nice ring to it don't you think?
