Oh my God

Sometimes when you read something, your brain automatically converts it to what you think it should read, not what it said. So when I saw the headline about sex with women he killed, I read it as he was a rapist and a murderer.

But then the article makes clear, it is far more yucky than that. Im not sure if one can say if rape is worse or better than necrophilia – both are evil and disgusting – but in somewhat different ways.

The Press reports:

‘House of horrors’ murderer Jason Somerville strangled his wife Rebecca Somerville and Tisha Lowry to death before having sex with them.

That’s the word I missed.

The statement said Somerville strangled Lowry until she was no longer breathing. He then stuffed a pair of his wife’s underpants in her mouth and had sex with her.

Somerville was due at a meeting early that afternoon so had no time to dispose of Lowry’s body, leaving her lying on the floor of a cupboard.

The following day, Somerville waited until his wife had gone out before again having sex with Lowry’s body, now hidden under the house.

I think I can speak for everyone when I say I hope Mr Somerville is not let out of jail in my lifetime.

The statement of facts raises real questions about how the Police did not catch him after the first murder.
