When Smoking Kills…

Reader Bill Cook sends along this link from the London Telegraph:

'Devil' man killed wife and two sons over her smoking

A hotelier who became obsessed with the devil murdered his wife and two of their children because she would not give up smoking, a court heard yesterday.

John Jarvis, 42, had persuaded his wife, Patricia, to sign a pre-nuptial agreement limiting her to six cigarettes a day.

When he discovered she was smoking more than that number, he stabbed her in the heart and then murdered their sons, John, 11, and Stuart, eight, so they could join her….

Whole thing here.
