TAKEO - A man was detained by police on 17 December concerning an incident on 16 December, where he struck his drunk father-in-law on the head with a large rock. The victim had been throwing stones at the property of his son-in-law, and when he smashed a jar, it was the last straw for the suspect who then attacked him with the rock.
The victim was originally sent to hospital, but now seems to have been sent home to die. The suspect is being charged with murder, although the victim is not yet dead.

The suspect

The weapon

The motive

The victim
The family await the end

WTF?

It would be convenient if the victim lived in a glass house.

Better safe than sorry!

I don't see a problem with charging him with murder, I guarantee the father in law will die......eventually

Motrin is an anti-inflammatory. Good to see they are at least maintaining the airway. This is ridiculous.

Have to admit, I have looked similar after a good stoning, save the medical gear.
