Arrow The PASSION OF THE CHRIST prompts murder confession

Any thoughts??

http://news.scotsman.com/topics.cfm?...5&id=352262004

Now Mel Gibson’s controversial film The Passion has been credited with solving a murder.

Texas detectives looking into the death of a teenager, Ashley

Nicole Wilson, in January had wrongly concluded she hanged herself after they found a suicide note.

But after sitting through the powerful two-hour film, Ms Wilson’s boyfriend, Dan Leach, felt the need to confess and turned himself in to Fort Bend County police.

He admitted staging the murder of his pregnant lover to look like a suicide after picking up the idea from a US crime show, but he was so moved by the film he could no longer keep the secret.

"He wanted redemption," said Detective Mike Kubricht of the Fort Bend sheriff’s office. "The Passion of the Christ moved him spiritually and he felt compelled to come forward with this."

According to Det Kubricht, Leach’s confession was preceded by a bizarre address to members of the Avenue N Church of Christ in Rosenberg, Texas.
