A Texas teen accused of killing his twin sister has claimed that he was sleeping when he plunged a knife into her neck, prosecutors said Thursday.

Benjamin Elliott, 17, of Katy, told authorities that he was stunned that he wasn’t dreaming when he woke up between 2:30 a.m. and 3 a.m. Wednesday and found himself in sister Meghan Elliot’s bedroom with a knife in her neck, news station KTRK reported.

“The defendant stated after realizing he was not dreaming, he removed the knife and placed it next to the complainant, turned on the light to the bedroom and applied pressure to the wound with a pillow,” a prosecutor told the court.

Ed Gein perhaps, but Dahmer’s primary influence was his father who supposedly did some amateur taxidermy.

“When I was young I dated a guy who’d done a stint in the Navy, and he once told me that in the military you aren’t considered ‘responsible’ for anything you do within a short time of being awakened - I can’t remember how long, but I think it only amounted to seconds. I’ve always wondered if that is true or I somehow misunderstood it...”

When I was stationed in Germany, we were doing a field rotation in Hohenfels. One night my platoon sergeant came to wake me up for guard duty. I sat up in my bunk, decked him, and laid back down as if nothing happened.

From that point on anytime I had guard duty it was the first shift.
