Unfortunately, this advice comes to late for one troubled Swedish Starcraft player. Apparently, the 18-year old kid flew into a rage a few months ago when his connection dropped during an online game. He decided that the only remedy was to skip all of the traditional troubleshooting techniques and go right to stabbing an innocent girl walking down the street. Fortunately, this completely insane act of random violence did not end as bad as it could have—the girl managed to escape with wounds that are not life threatening. As for her attacker, he is currently spending some downtime at a psychiatric hospital with an attempted manslaughter charge in the works.

Guest Gary C Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Quote Clearly, this is one disturbed individual we are talking about here. I mean, a rational person would have yelled at his modem and smacked it around with tears streaming down his face right? LOL, pretty sure I did that when I was about 15.

Guest Iain C Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 I would imagine that's "manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility".

SR4 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 isn't manslaughter the unlawful killing of someone without intent or malice? how the fuck did this kid not have intent when he took out a knife and ran out in the street? bullshit, give the asshole the lowest murder charge. shouldn't be on the streets for a long time.

SR4 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 i think anyone with a logical mind could see that the kid expressed "intent" to harm or kill when he was getting ready to do what he did.

Guest idrn Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 i imagine it as the kid being schitzo - everything shitty that happened to him was perceived as a conspiracy/effort to fuck with him, and the connection dropping was the breaking point. he runs out onto the street crying about a computer game, and some girl smirks or looks at him like 'wtf' which in his mind means she's in on it, or at least 'knows', so he slashes her up. sorry, but with such little info in that article i'm just gonna have to make my own conclusions.
