Maybe He Overslept on His Deathbed

Monday, June 15th, 2009 • Filed under Murderers

I’ve always wondered what my last words should be on my deathbed. I believe it would be something like, “Get me two blondes, the dumber the better” or maybe at least one redhead depending on what kind of mood I’m in that week. It might be chauvinistic, but it’s the best use of a deathbed I can think of.

One man, however, found the worst use of a deathbed when he confessed to murdering a neighbor more than 20 years after his crime, according to the BBC.

The man never died. In fact, he got better and police charged him with the murder. That will make his funeral eulogy awkward to write.

He even called police to his home to make the confession because he thought he was dying. Police eventually sent him an arrest warrant in the form of a get-well card.

    What’s even more ironic is that he now risks the real death sentence

    Even IF I was dying….he seemed like he was going to get away with.. So why would you even tell anyone? Why would you turn yourself in? Or kill someone in the first place…?

    Was he thinking he would be able to get a good notch at the heavens door because confessed to his past? Just saying if so he’s a little to late on that considering it’s been 20 years!

    I would have to agree with Ashley DUMB WORLD!!

    Maybe he feel so guilty in the first place so he need to confessed before he go to hell. Idiot

  • smiley says: January 20th, 2010 at 1:43 am

    He is guilty as HELL!!!

    He will kick the bucket anyway. there is no different if he did confessed or not. He is still a killer in the first place.

    Fail :L Why would you confess 20 years later. LOL

    I bet he confessed in order to be absolved of his sins & be admitted to heaven…as a non-believer this is one of the things that really sticks in my craw…you can be an utter **** head your whole life but as long as you find God at the end then you’ll be sweet…what a crock of ****!

    Sucked in to this moron…I hope the family of the person he killed go after him for damages too!

    im gonna have to say that this guy is really retarted, but also i have to give him credit… he wanted to confess before he died, of course now hes probably sitting in his cell saying “drat drat drat drat drat drat drat drat drat -inhales- drat drat drat drat…”
