New Weapon: A Rock in a Sock

Police: Killer invoked Old Testament in 'stoning' death

A Delaware County man has been arrested and charged with murder in the beating death of an elderly Landsdowne man who had befriended him and made him executor and sole beneficiary of his will.

John Joe Thomas, 28, of the first block of Sunshine Road in Upper Darby, allegedly told police he killed Murray Joseph Seidman, 70, because the older man had made sexual advances and that the Old Testament spelled out stoning as the punishment for homosexuality.

"I stoned Murray with a rock in a sock," Thomas said to police, according to court documents.

Good thing we go by the law and not a book of Arabian fairy tales , scumbag killed him for the will and was stupid enough to think that his word and Christian doctrines would allow him to walk away with a bag of money
