EAST POINT, Georgia (AP) -- The owner of a car dealership has been accused of killing two employees because they kept asking for pay raises.
Rolandas Milinavicius has been charged with two counts of murder in the shooting deaths of Inga Contreras, 25, and Martynas Simokaitis, 28.
All three are from the eastern European nation of Lithuania but had been living in Atlanta, Georgia, authorities said.
Milinavicius, who was having financial problems, told police he shot the two Thursday after they kept asking for more pay, said police in East Point, which is just outside Atlanta.
"He told us that he was under a lot of stress," East Point police Capt. Russell Popham said. "Unfortunately, he decided to take his anger out with violence."

What was it? A Yugo dealership?
Asked for a raise, but instead got lowered. (6 ft)
I guess he goes to the top of the “Worst Boss in the Country” list.
Killing staff not only saves on wages, it curbs outlays for health benefits, too. Not mentioned in the article: Harvard B School and Wharton are looking into this.
You’d think killing the first one would have been sufficient.

The other one still insisted on a raise.
