BBC News - Craigslist 'killer' found dead in Boston jail

I thought he was on suicide watch? It's a shame someone with so much potential wasted his life; but on the bright side it's one less scumbag murderer that the taxpayers don't have to pay for.

I thank him for saving me the tax dollars that would have been used to feed, cloth and house him... not to mention the millions that would have been spend on security and court costs.

Pure evil, that guy. Smart people with psychotic double lives are scary.

[saltfly]

My wallet thanks you.

that the media can quit using
the word allegedly

people don't often kill themselves
when NOT guilty

For added closure the family can go dance on his grave and pi$$ on it whenever they want!
It may not bring the closure they deserve, but it may make them feel a little better that he will surely burn in hell for all eternity!

[PaulS]

To bad he didn't kill himself b/f he started killing others.

[fishbones]

I'm glad he's dead, but I feel for the victim's family. It must be hard on them not being able to see him face his punishment. He's a coward.

Yawn!

Families who think that a killer who offs himself, or is done in by fellow inmates, denies them justice have obviously never had the experience of going to court for 2+ years of continuances, and attending a 3 week long trial where photos and autopsy reports are shown and talked about, and where defense lawyers grill witnesses, and then have to sweat through jury deliberations which can take up to several days.

It is no picnic for the families of victims--I wonder how so many of them can do it. I admire them, but in all honesty, this is a better way for them, in the long run.

...worst part is that normally the whole thing doesn't go to court until at least a year, usually longer after the incident. So now you have to re-live it all again.

Sux.

Been there, done that, got the t-shirt, and wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

Melissa Benoit was my best friend and next door neighbor. Ole Hanky Panky lived on the other side. As a 14 year old I spent 2 hours on the stand lookin at pictures of her body after it 'd been buried in his cellar for a week......He got what he deserved in jail.
