Man Takes Halloween Display A Bit Too Literally

I've heard of realistic Halloween displays outside ones home, but this takes things a little too far, trying to hang the wife while setting up the decorations at the home like this man did in WA state the other day.

In all seriousness the man's wife is somewhat disabled, making this story even less humorous if even at all. We hear so often about charges being elevated in the cases of homosexuals and others into hate crimes, so why not also an increase in charges whenever crimes are committed against the disabled, children or both.

They are the truly defenseless in our society like this woman apparently was, partially confined to a wheelchair the story indicates.

By the way, homosexuals and different ethnic groups aren't near as defenseless nor scorned as the before described categories of people are in any way whatsoever, so why the special treatment for them and not the others I've always wondered.

Police: Man Tried to Hang Wife in 'Haunted House'

wltx.com | : "Spokane, WA (KXLY) - He wanted to avoid a divorce, so police say a Spokane man took his wife to his garage to show her a haunted house he created, and then tried to hang her."Sean Jennings' wife still has the bruising and rope burns from where her husband allegedly tried to hang her.

Police say Jennings had the woman climb a ladder so she could test a noose that would support a skeleton during a neighborhood haunted house later in the month. The woman says her husband then turned on the garage radio and pulled the ladder away.

The woman often needs a wheelchair to get around but she was able to periodically support herself on her tip toes. She says at the last minute she was able to escape, but only after promising her husband not to divorce him and never tell anyone what he had done to her. VideoVIDEO:
