Just wild speculation on my part.

I’ll lay the odds of any of it being correct at 3 to 1.

From the LA Times...

“...“Think of the nicest person that you know, then multiply that by five,” Kern said. “He worked so hard to support himself. Unfortunately, we don’t know enough to say what happened or what didn’t happen.”

Kern said Taylor had been working and living on his own since he was 18, and he sensed that Taylor “was living under a tremendous amount of pressure.”

Over the years, Kern said, he knew Taylor had faced challenges, including a marriage that could seem “contentious” from the phone calls Taylor received from his wife at the gym.

“It was embarrassing — you could hear her yelling at him,” Kern said. “He’d be very apologetic and she’d be yelling at him.”...”

Oh you know how it is with some people here.

If somebody white does something bad it’s roid rage, or meth, or booze.

If somebody black does something bad, it’s because they are black/

Has to be some sort of really crazy explanation like that for a double beheading, especially of one’s own children.

This below more than likely is NOT the same guy, but it is interesting, given that it happened in the same general area of California and involves the same name and approximate age.

The guy who was arrested for the beheading is listed as 34. The guy in the story below is listed as 30 in 2018. The age discrepancies could be related to the month of birth and/or possible error in reporting precise age.

“San Pedro man charged in home-invasion robbery

A San Pedro man was charged Jan. 18 with a home-invasion robbery that victimized a 19-year-old Rancho Palos Verdes man who was tied up and left in his bathtub for nine to 10 hours, deputies said.

Maurice Taylor, 30, faces counts of robbery, burglary, mayhem, false imprisonment, auto theft and making criminal threats.”

“... Los Angeles Times that both victims were decapitated, calling the incident “pretty brutal.”

Pretty BRUTAL?

I think you may be exaggerating a bit. /s

UK newspaper, that’s why. Otherwise the rule is if the black person is the victim, it’s in the headline. If he’s the perp, it’s buried if mentioned at all.

Lancaster, California?

Of course if he meant Lancaster PA, mostly (actual) Amish there, as opposed to that other kind of 'Amish'.


Lancaster PA
