Radio newsman George Weber was stabbed to death in a grisly "crime of passion" by a man he likely knew and let into his Brooklyn apartment, sources said yesterday.

Weber's half-naked body was found Sunday morning in his bloody Carroll Gardens apartment. The broadcaster was stabbed multiple times in the neck, back and upper torso.

Cops are investigating the murder as a gay slaying, police sources said.

The reporter, George Weber, 47, was found dead in the apartment, at 561 Henry Street in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn.

According to a plaque not far away on the house at 426 Henry Street, Brooklyn, Jennie Jerome was born there in January 1850. Her father was Leonard Walter Jerome, a financier.

Jennie Jerome was the mother of a man named Winston Churchill.

There's a lot more acting out.

That was kind of brilliant, I was going to go into a lot of detail but your sentence will suffice as a summary of what I was going to post.

The description of this murder screamed homosexual pairing even when no knew that he was homosexual.

Is that the opposite of glum on glum crime?

[Andy'smom]

So did I, reading between the lines.

[Disambiguator]

There was no evidence of forced entry and investigators believe Weber may have known his attacker.

At least as far as the apartment was concerned, anyway.

Does Bloomberg have an alibi?

“Cops are investigating the murder as a gay slaying”

Whew. I thought they would call it a hate crime. Oh what was I thinking?

[Pinetop]

That is very funny!!!!

[Pinetop]

That’s because “...there was no evidence of forced entry.”

[Lazamataz]

That literally made me laugh out loud.

[Always Right]

lol, I am glad you got a kick out of it.

[Mobile Vulgus]

I saw a lot of comments asking if this guy was gay and a LOT more scolding people for saying so. Guess what? He was gay.

This was determined from the autopsy?
