While you might have heard of killers using a gun or a knife to commit a murder, you might not have heard of the use of a dessert spoon to do the same! That’s right, from spoon to silicone breasts, there are some unusual murder weapons which have been used to fatally wound people.
Let’s have a look:
1. Dessert spoon
Yes, it’s true! A robber attempted to rob a mobile phone from a disabled man. When the man resisted in self-defence, the robber hit him on the back of his head with a dessert spoon, the blow was so powerful that it ruptured an artery. The man was later acquitted of the charges though the autopsy reports claim that the rupture of the artery was caused by the utensil.
2. Microwave
In a shocking incident, a mother roasted her baby girl to death inside a microwave. Although she claimed later that it was due to her history of seizures that this unfortunate incident happened and she didn’t know what she was doing.
3. Stiletto
Ana Trujillo, a 45-year-old woman was convicted of killing her boyfriend with a stiletto shoe. She hit her boyfriend with her 5 and a half inch stiletto heel 25 times in the face, arms, and head. I guess the devil DOES wear Prada.
4. Breasts
Donna Lange accidentally smothered her boyfriend with her breasts after passing out on top of him. She told the police that she had no idea how the man died. Lange was apparently heavily intoxicated when she passed out on top her boyfriend. Witnesses claimed that they heard the pleadings of the man who was asking her to move.
5. Prosthetic leg
Debra Hewitt, a homeless woman was convicted of killing her boyfriend using her own prosthetic leg. According to the police investigation, she stomped on him, then took off her prosthetic leg and used it to beat him to death.
6. X box
Darrius Johnson was convicted of killing his girlfriend who was found near a bloodied X-box console, and, as it turns out, the peculiar choice of weapon isn’t the weirdest thing about this story. Evidently, Johnson said he had to sacrifice her because she was somehow controlling him against his will, and killing someone born under the Taurus astrological sign was the only way to set his soul free. I know what you’re thinking, crazy doesn’t even begin to define this!
7. Lid of the toilet tank
Man bashed in the head of his estranged wife after having a heated argument over ending their relationships. The wife was apparently in a relationship with another man and this is what is believed to have escalated the argument between them.
8. Guitar
Derrick Birdow, under the influence of a hallucinogenic drug, beat a church’s pastor to death with an electric guitar. Incidentally, he also died from the overdose of the same drug while he was being taken in the back of a police car.
9. Death by scarecrow
An Argentinian shepherd was found dead near a scarecrow dummy with a strap on. Apparently, the shepherd had gotten lonely and had tried to use the scarecrow as a, ahem… as a partner. The strap-on on the scarecrow apparently caused damage to the internal organs of the shepherd and he passed away.
Anything and everything can be a potential weapon, be careful!
