Hearing such news makes me wish we had a torture penalty that was somehow equal in cruelty toward the guilty.
At least the guilty would know what they were bringing onto themselves.
And it might provide an opportunity for either mercy or revenge for the wronged family and friends.
Isn't that where Trader Joe's is headquartered? Maybe he was just sore that they were out of Two Buck Chuck.
This is a tragic situation. Unfortunatly, the Perp will not get the needle he deserves.

In the San Gabriel Valley (eastern LA County).
Their web site lists their west coast address as Monrovia.
I mentioned that because I am currently enjoying some dried cherries from Trader Joes, and Monrovia is stamped on the bag. I believe that their executive offices are in Monrovia, although they were founded elsewhere in the area.
Any first hand experience with Two Buck Chuck?
The web site says "Trader Joe's actually began in 1958 as a chain of convenience stores called Pronto Markets in the Los Angeles area." It lists Monrovia for west coast contact info and Needham, MA for east coast contact info.
Its actually not too bad (a step above Manishevitz, but below Gato Negro), and their Shiraz and Cabernet is drinkable.

The marketing genius of the Gallo family continues.
I have purchased the Oregon Riesling in my few trips to Trader Joe's. I will check out the Two Buck Chuck one of these times. Thanks, Clemenza :-)
Now if this was China this guy would be hanging in a week. But since its "give all the breaks to the criminal USA" the rope won't be used in our lifetime.
Chi Omegas were Ted Bundy's downfall.
