Edward Keith Stoddard Jr. really likes his PlayStation 3. So much, in fact, that if you were to touch his PS3, he may just kill you. Such was the fate of his neighbor, Douglas F. Abrams, who Stoddard believed had taken his console. During an argument over the missing system, police say Stoddard shot Abrams, fatally wounding him. When cops showed up on the scene, Stoddard surrendered and was taken to Land O'Lakes jail (no, really) in Dade County, Florida. It's okay to love your console, people -- just don't get jealous if it drops by the neighbor's house for some tea.

another case for video game violence, ffs, morons,

if your going to kill someone over something
do it in an alley, and away from anything console related, when questioned say jesus made you do it, thatway you can go for an insanity plea and get off easy

I am sure that those who swear by the notion that video games creates/causes/encourages violence will have a field day with this.

I am sure he is kicking himself now.. I mean, how much time does he get to play video games in jail?

I heard that some jails let Prisoners play video games as a reward for good behavoir, and if they used the money they earn 5 cents an hour work to buy consoles.
