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.
