Noose alergy

I read in the paper about a curious murder trial going on in Spain at the mo'.

Some dude with a wife and two young kids went out to lunch with his work colleagues, which turned into an all afternoon drinking binge.

Witnesses say the accused had always been known as a bit of a 'square', he hardly ever drank, never really partied, was a big family man, into sports, went to church every week etc, yet he and his chums continued the drinking binge and ended up in some early evening watering hole, where he admits he took cocaine for the very first time (and in huge amounts), and possibly other substances too, all supplied by his work colleagues - who've all been fired and now face various charges too.

Then around 10 of the clock, with the accused apparently 'flying high', they decided to go to a 'strip' club, but not before the gang all stopped off at the accused's gaff so he could change his clothes. His colleagues waited for him outside.

The accused apparently then went upstairs to his apartment, found his wife and both kids in bed reading a story, killed them all with a wooden mallet, before showering off the blood, changing and coming back downstairs.

His work colleagues had no idea what had happened and continued partying.

It was only when a colleague brought him home in the wee-wee hours that the atrocity was discovered. The accused himself called the police, distraught, thinking someone had broken in and killed them all.

Forensic evidence quickly proved the accused did it, and he's accepted that, yet claims no memory of the incident whatsoever, due to being completely off his fucking face. The prosecution can offer no motive for the killing, other than he must have just 'snapped' over something.

He's now trying to be aquitted on the basis of temporary incapacitation, is seeking solace in religion, and wants to be set free to become a monk.

Hmn...

Still can't get hold of Tom, the fucker.
