She probably turned off the Hockey game.

[Mark]

It sounds like he was a dedicated worker, showing up instead of calling in sick.

[thesharkboy]

Don't they have woodchippers in Finland?

...and cut the corpse in half so it would fit into a single plastic bag.

Frugal!

She might have been too large to fold! :-)

the crime, which the man committed after the couple had been drinking at home

Finland has the highest number, per capita, of alcoholics in the world. And the 2nd largest suicide rate. For some reason they are not a happy bunch.

[billhilly]

He wore a two piece suit to the funeral. Is it possible that she two timed him?

[gov_bean_ counter]

Da*m those subcompacts. Probably could have put the whole thing in the back of an Expedition.

[RoughDobermann]

Police spokesman Jorma Jantunen told Reuters the man, in his mid-30s, arrived at the police station and said his wife's body was in the trunk of their car at home.

Well, he's obviously pretty cut up over it. Ahem.

The only surprising thing in this article was that this didn't happen in the U.S.

[Willie Green]

If Finland doesn't have capital punishment, it should.
There's no reason for Finnish taxpayers to have to support "rehabilitation" of this demon for the next 35~40 years.
Off with his head, then everybody can go back to peacefully enjoying their own lives with absolute assurance that nobody will ever again be at risk of harm from the sick SOB.

And then there are some drinking games you just don't want to lose.

[JoeSixPack1]

Whatever it was she did do, it highly upset him! :-)

And we can all breath a sigh of relief 'cause he didn't use a gun, otherwise somebody would be gettin' sued!! I mean, can you imagine how much madder he would have got if he had a gun?

Oh, the horror of it all.........:-(

[Reeses]

Do-it-yourself divorce. He is entitled to half the marital assets.

[laotzu]

Bitch

[billhilly]

I see your point. He coulda' killed her real good with a gun.

[doc]

When I first read this I thought who has time to do that before going to work.

[husky ed]

So which was was the "Better Half".

[husky ed]

. = ?

[boris]

"...till death do her part."
