Facebook claims another victim

[Luk3us 63]

A Jacksonville mother charged with shaking her baby to death has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder.

 

Alexandra V. Tobias, 22, was arrested after the January death of 3-month-old Dylan Lee Edmondson. She told investigators she became angry because the baby was crying while she was playing a computer game called FarmVille on the Facebook social-networking website.

 

Tobias entered her plea Wednesday before Circuit Judge Adrian G. Soud. A second-degree murder charge is punishable by up to life in prison.

 

Prosecutor Richard Mantei said Tobias' sentence could be less because of state guidelines that call for 25 to 50 years. Soud offered no promises on what he'll order during a sentencing hearing scheduled for December.

 

Outside the courtroom, Mantei said Tobias' plea will help avoid the family reliving the tragedy during a jury trial.

 

Tobias told investigators that she shook the baby, smoked a cigarette to compose herself and then shook him again. She said the baby may have hit his head during the shaking.

She killed the baby because of a ridiculous facebook game... She's sick . He's only three months old!..

They only mention Facebook to create a more newsworthy story. This has nothing to do with Facebook. The women is obviously a crazy bitch and not fit to be having children in the first place. And judging by her photo she probably does drugs anyway....

 

 

Lock her up, throw away the key.

Or was shaken as a baby. (Hmm... not sure if tongue smiley is appropriate here...)

Well its nice to know people are still judging a book by its cover.

Actually, I thought the ratio of crackheads to non-crackheads on the internet was leaning toward the crackheads...

 

Seems like it anyway...

Judging from the cover, I'm afraid there are a few pages missing

I'll venture a bet and say more than just a few pages.

A few screws short of a hardware store.

A few cards short of a deck.

A few fries short of a Happy Meal.

A burger short of a combo meal.

A few peas short of a casserole.

A few keys short of a keyboard.

A few sandwiches short of a picnic.

All those are nice ways of saying:

 

O lord, dis lady is craaazy.

[Nyerguds 100]

Oh noes! How is she gonna play Farmville if she's in prison?

I seriously hope they don't give her an internet connection there.

 

 

btw, this sums up the Evils of Facebook

Sounds like a pretty depraved individual to me. I mean, there are crimes of passion, but she took a cigarette break and then resumed later, and at no point thought, "Hey this is wrong," during the shaking, the break, or the resumed shaking...
