     Prosecutors said Pitchford took his wife to the hospital for treatment, but stopped for beer along the way.

     To add insult to injury, he most likely didn’t tip the bartender

    He didn’t even ask her what she was drinking? That guy sounds downright rude.

     He's charged with second-degree murder, domestic assault, and felon in possession of a firearm. What we don't know: Authorities have not elaborated on the condition of the victim. 
 I’m confused…

    A headline I could never have imagined. Showing reality far surpasses our limited imaginations.
