well then he can fry in hell. :D

This is why you don't do drugs...

Part of me wants to exclame on here... I WAS RIGHT. She knew him. Random murders just don't happen here! They could, but they haven't. Thank God and let's hope it stays that way. (and let's hope to God that no more of this happens)

Once I heard about him, my thoughts were that they were doing drugs, she overdosed, he freaked out, and killed her. Hence, he didn't MURDER her, just dismembered her. (um, guy, and that makes it ok?!)

I'm with Drolefille. I hope they did everything according to the book so there are NO loopholes for him. Dee do you remember the Riverview murders a few years ago? Those 3 teenagers who were obviously guilty got off because someone on the prosecution side lied (amongst other things done wrong)

Still, after someone dismembered someone else and was able to do that, yet had the presence of mind to go to Sav-Mor for bleach repeatedly (wondering how much bleach he bought if it raised suspicion), I'd still worry about all the teenage girls in the area, with the high school being so close. If you read a lot about serial killers, sometimes the first one is an accident and they get such a rush from it that they get more organized about it.

Just really glad he's behind bars.

We also never really know who has moved into the neighborhood, especially in apartment complexes which are more transient. If you ever look at the Sex Offender Registry, a lot of those people live in apartments. With all the foreclosures, a lot more homes are being rented, which also attracts more transients. On top of all that, you never really know your neighbor and as we talked about earlier, sociopaths are often charming. How often do you hear "We never thought he would do something like that!" after a murder?

ETA: Today's paper has a little more info:

James Thomas Bommer, 52, was charged with one count of dismembering and mutilating a dead body and one count of obstruction of justice.

He was not charged with the murder of 32-year-old Pamela Prpich.

Police said Bommer told them he and Prpich were doing drugs when he found her dead from an overdose. He told police he cut up her body to hide her death because he panicked.

Bommer is being charged as a habitual offender, which could lead to life in prison.

Remember this case http://writ.news.findlaw.com/colb/20031119.html

This guy was aquitted in Texas after killing his neighbor, dismembering him and dumping him in Galveston Bay.

Which is why they charged him with dismembering and mutilating a dead body but not murder. I'm hoping he pleads guilty to that and spares us from a trial, honestly.
