And, yes, his hair really does suck. I want to wash it and cut myself.

Please don't cut yourself, Stella.

 

[backlash]

I'd like to take the bowl he used to trace his bangs and shove it up his ass.

 

[Stella]

Please don't cut yourself, Stella.

Oh, I won't cut MYSELF, don't worry about that.

[backlash]

Oh, I won't cut MYSELF, don't worry about that.

Do us all a favor and "nick" his carotid while you're at it.

FARMVILLE --

The man suspected of killing four people in Farmville appeared for a brief status hearing yesterday in Prince Edward County Circuit Court.

Judge Richard S. Blanton set a September date for attorneys to argue motions in the case of Richard Samuel Alden McCroskey III, the 21-year-old California man facing capital-murder charges in last year's deaths.

After the hearing, defense attorney Cary B. Bowen described McCroskey as remorseful and said the defendant understands the weight of the charges against him...

Aspiring rapper pleads guilty to killing 4 in Va.

FARMVILLE, Va. – An aspiring rapper in the "horrorcore" genre pleaded guilty Monday to killing his 16-year-old girlfriend, her parents and her friend days after the adults chaperoned the teens at a music festival featuring artists rhyming about raping, killing and mutilating people.

Richard "Sam" McCroskey, 21, was sentenced to life in prison as part of his agreement to plead guilty to two counts of capital murder and two counts of first-degree murder. He initially was charged with four counts of capital murder, which could have resulted in the death penalty if convicted on the charges.

His attorney, Cary Bowen, said after the hearing that the prospect of a conviction on capital murder charges was a major factor in agreeing to the guilty plea.

"Four bodies are pretty compelling evidence," Bowen said. "This is the kind of stuff that citizens any place in this country are terrified it could happen to them. This is the kind of case death penalties arise from."

McCroskey, from Castro Valley, Calif., arrived at the Prince Edward County Circuit Court shackled, in a loose-fitting orange jumpsuit and under heavy guard. He did not look at family members gathered on side of the courtroom, and showed little emotion during the hearing. He replied "yes" and "no" to questions from the judge in Prince Edward County Circuit Court.

He declined to offer a statement in court but Bowen said his client was preparing a message to give to the victims' families. He described McCroskey's mood as "somber."

"There are four people dead here," Bowen said. "He's not happy at all."

Asked if McCroskey's musical interests had fueled his rage, Bowen said, "Much of that music is so rampant with this exact kind of behavior, you can't help but notice the coincidence. But I don't have a sense the music led to this kind of behavior."

Ennis said McCroskey had no criminal record. He said he had discussed the plea agreement with the victims' families, and their sentiments played a role in structuring the plea.

"Anything can go wrong in a jury trial," he said. "Hopefully this can bring some measure of closure to the families."

On McCroskey's MySpace page, people have posted messages of support in recent weeks. "free syko sam we need more tracks!!" reads a post under the name J.R.B. from last month.

"syko sam" needs to stay right where the hell he is, TYVM!

At least he admits it and the fiasco is over for the families, though their pain will last forever.

 

[backlash]

You have got to be fucking kidding me. I can't believe there is even a market for anything related to this little fucker. It's too bad he wasn't in the room with bin laden.
