    This happened just a town over from me:

    In yesterday's paper, it says the victim described this man as her "gentleman friend", although I can't find that quote on the online stories. Yesterday's paper did not mention she was a dub.

    Gosh, thats kind of sad.

    My mum offered a homeless girl off the street a bed for the night last week, and I was pretty nervous all night for her. Turns out the girl never turned up in the end.

    That's justice for you. A JW woman who actually tries to do something substantial for someone she thought was in need.

    I just hope that the memory of this poor woman isn't besmirched by other JWs who say things like: "there you go; that's what happens when you get involved with worldly people." It sounds like she was just being a good Samaritan.

    You know there will be a talk blaming her for bad association and that's the ultimate reason for her death.

    That's really awful! The poor woman tries to help the guy and he "thanks" her by murdering her. No conscience, the brute.

    Seems like the guy was messed up from the pain and drugs. . .not excusing it, but as it doesn't seem like a behavior that he was leading up to other than his statement at the crisis center. I have heard a few people say and do things totally out of character when in absolutely unbearable pain. What a shame for that woman to have been repaid for her kindness with such an ugly end. I hope that no one adds to the pain of her family with the comments that we know can be typical of some particularly clueless/tactless JWs.
