Police: Man killed over toilet paper

MOSS BLUFF, Florida (AP) -- A man was arrested and accused of fatally beating his roommate with hammers because there was no toilet paper in their home, police said.

Franklin Paul Crow, 56, was charged Monday with homicide, according to a spokesman with the Marion County Sheriff's Office.

Crow is accused in the death of Kenneth Matthews, 58, the spokesman said.

Capt. Thomas Bibb said Crow initially denied his involvement, but later confessed during questioning.( javascript cnnVideo'play','/video/us/2006/02/21/brown.fl.toilet.paper.death.wcjb','2006/02/28'; - Watch how an 11-year-old helped get the confession -- 1:30 )

Crow told investigators that the men were fighting about the toilet paper over the weekend when Matthews pulled out a rifle.

Crow said he then began beating Matthews with the sledgehammer and claw hammer, according to an affidavit.

Matthews was beaten so badly he had to be identified through his fingerprints, detectives said.

Crow was being held at the Marion County jail without bond. It was not immediately known whether he had an attorney.

 

 

I have been saying you could do a lot of damage to a person with a claw hammer.... Apparently so.

And apparently, a very motivated person can use hammer(s) and win against someone with a gun.

And on top of that, this just goes to show you that people will kill each other over something as stupid as a roll of toilet paper. Good thing Albert has his 1000 roles!  

If someone will do this now while TP is plentiful, how do you think people will be when there are no supplies of anything?

Get your preps, and if you cant have a gun, by all means invest in a good claw hammer!
