Man kills wife because she turned off TV?
ROSTRAVER, Pa., March 19 (UPI) -- A Pennsylvania man faces 40 years in prison after admitting in court that he was driven to kill his wife after she turned off the television set.
Thomas Gay Wickerham, 58, of Rostraver, Pa., gave no reason for killing his wife as their children looked on, other than an argument about the TV, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported.
"I went berserk. She made me shoot her," Wickerham told authorities.
Wickerham pleaded guilty to a third-degree murder charge and awaits a June sentencing in Westmoreland County by Judge Rita Hathaway.

Hey, a father in Philadelphia beat his one-year-old daughter to death because she pulled down his Xbox and broke it. Pretty pathetic--both of them!

It is not what our society is coming to. You have just read a perfect example of mental illness, where a person's thinking process is SO impaired that what he says, seems logical to him.
Many persons with mental illness, seem very lucid and competent on the surface.. until you hear something like this, said with (for lack of a better word) with a straight face.
His wife did nothing to make him shoot her. Upset him, maybe. Kill her, no.
but, if he were sane, he would recognize that to begin with.
