Well I’m definitely not clicking “Like” on this one. Of course it happened in Pennsyltucky. James Carville once said “Pennsylvania is just Pittsburgh and Philadelphia with Alabama in the middle.” Having been there, I completely agree.
I forgive you for not clicking “Like.”
Strangest, most bizarre suicide I’ve ever heard of…the homicide was bad, too…
