Man makes

[Homicidalheathen]

Fathers teach their kids all kinds of things.

My husband, for instance, has taught our son the finer points of the xbox 360 and surfing the Internet. He has taught our 2 year old to holler “I hate that freakin’ cat” when my noisy kitty begins to wail without cessation. Now, he doesn’t really hate that freakin’ cat; which is probably why my husband has decided to skip the lesson Danield Collins taught his kids.

Danield Collins apparently decided his kids desperately needed to learn the fine art of killing. Public schools have just made so many cuts to their fine arts programs, you know.

Now, I know what you are thinking: how do you find a volunteer to aid in such a lesson? It seems as though the family cat may have put his paw up a bit too soon.

Police report that Collins first gave his 11-year old son the knife and instructed him to kill Boots the family cat.

The boy, understandably not too hip on this idea, hid the cat and tried to use ketchup to simulate blood.

Apparently, when Collins realized the cat was still alive he “forced the knife into his daughters hand and made her stab the cat”.

A seven year old girl, it would seem, is not very good at stabbing. This may have led to, as police stated, Collins stabbing and strangling the cat himself.

And, perhaps, just to reinforce the lesson this father bestowed upon his offspring: Collins, reportedly, made his son put the cats body in the trash. The children reside with their grandparents. The siblings reported to police that their father was drunk when they were dropped off for a visit at his home.

Collins is charged with one count each of animal cruelty and two counts of neglect of a dependent; he is also facing a count of battery stemming from the injury the 7-year old is said to have suffered when her father “held her hand so hard it ached”.

Should Collins be “drunk daddy of the year” or dodging the flames of hell?

Let the judging commence.

another one, he only got 5 yrs

guess its cause she didn't die??

Kids sometimes say the darnedest things when you really wish they wouldn’t.

Like 28-year-old Joshua McClelland’s kids, for instance.

There they were, Joshua McClelland and his two little kids, 5-year-old Zach and 10-month-old Olivia, out on a drive at about 4 in the afternoon on the 18th of September, 2007, which happened to be a Tuesday.

John Pash, a state trooper, responding to a concerned citizen reporting a possible drunk driver, noticed Mr. McClelland driving erratically and pulled him over.

Ok, fine. That happens all the time.

After giving a few field sobriety tests and determining that Mr. McClelland was drunk, the trooper arrested him for DUI.

That sucks, he was driving drunk with his kids in the car, but still - it happens all the time.

While the trooper had Mr. McClelland in the back of his patrol vehicle, 5-year-old Zach pointed out a bloody knife on the floor of the vehicle McClelland had been driving to the trooper and said, “See that knife? Daddy stabbed mommy in the back.”

Whoa! Now that’s different.

It turns out that Joshua McClelland had an anger problem that he liked to take out on his wife.

A few months back, Angela McClelland had moved to Bruceton Mills, which is a small town in West Virginia to get away from her husband.

The week before, Angela had let Joshua come over to see the kids, and, to be honest, he was acting just fine.

This visit, however, was different. Joshua McClelland had been drinking whiskey and was demanding that Angela come back with him to Ohio.

He was feeling a bit stabby.

When she refused, Joshua grabbed a handy steak knife and stabbed his wife twice while they were fighting in the kitchen.

5-year-old Zach jumped on his father’s back, grabbing Joshua around the neck and trying to help his mommy, but he was only 5 and was quickly thrown off.

Joshua McClelland ran after Angela as she tried to escape and stabbed her in the back, neck and stomach, inflicting a total of seven stab wounds on the smaller woman and puncturing both her lungs.

With his wife collapsed on the floor in a pool of blood, Joshua grabbed both kids, threw them in Angela’s car and drove off moments after neighbors had called police to let them know what had happened.

As Joshua used the restroom while stopped in Pennsylvania, someone noticed that he was staggering around and was apparently intoxicated when he re-entered the vehicle he was driving and called the police.

Angela McClelland was rescued by emergency personnel, who put her on an emergency medical helicopter en route to a West Virginia hospital in time to save her life.

Joshua McClelland was in prison as of the 20th of September, 2007, where he was being held on a $125,000 cash only bond while waiting for an extradition hearing. It’s entirely likely he will be returned to West Virginia where he will face a number of charges.

Update:

Joshua McClelland was sentenced to one to five years in prison for stabbing his wife.

Angela McClelland survived the attack.

She appeared at the sentencing and asked the judge for leniency.

Instead, Preston County Circuit Judge Lawrence Miller Jr. gave Joshua McClelland the maximum sentence for the crime.

Leniency?

I will never understand people.

[Simon Bar Sinister]

If "leniency" means "emptying a full 9mm clip into his forehead", then I agree 100%.

[Destroit]

What I wouldn't give for five minutes alone in a room with that piece of shit. I'd make him wish he never even saw a cat in his life, fucking what a total pathetic waste of a human.

..what she said...but I strive to learn to understand them..

[TitsMcGee]

I wanna know why attempted murder is only one to five years.

[Msterbeau]

I suggest we use him as a test subject to teach children about the dangers of running with knives and scissors.

[Hellion]

People like this should be lowered into molten steel feet first,he is nothing but human waste.
