(AP) -- A man who got angry with his wife because she wanted to cuddle after sex when what he really wanted to do was watch sports on television was sentenced to death for killing her with a claw hammer. Christopher Offord, 30, was sentenced Wednesday by Circuit Judge Dedee Costello, who said the brutality of the crime outweighed any mental problems Offord may have had. "The defendant struck his wife approximately 70 individual blows after spending a happy interlude with her," the judge said. "Her desire to cuddle after sex does not justify the extremely violent, brutal response of the defendant." Offord pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in the 2004 slaying of Dana Noser, 40, at his apartment. He confessed to a bartender at a sports bar before his arrest. He told investigators that his wife had been nagging him to come back to bed. Offord did not speak in court but said in a jailhouse interview in June: "I figured I killed her so I deserve to die." is all I can say.

If he learns one lesson from this it should be that its better to give than receive.

August 6, 200520 yr It might have ended differently if she hadn't been playing the Stones album, Out of Our Heads, Side 2 Song 1* *IIRC if not, the trivia joke really, really sucks.

Talkin' 'Bout You bu Chuck Berry?? Oh, I forgot, MY version of the LP is the awesome UK release that doesn't start the side woith Satisfaction. Actually, satisfaction is not on the UK version at all.
August 6, 200520 yr I saw this guy's mugshot in the paper. Something tells me that wasn't the 1st time he was violent with her.
