Mortal Kombat killer sentenced to 36 years |

Lamar Roberts, who was convicted of beating a 7-year-old to death in 2007, was sentenced to 36 years in prison yesterday.Roberts, dubbed the Mortal Kombat killer by the media, beat to death Zoe Garcia, half-sister of his girlfriend, Heather Trujillo. The two were supposedly babysitting the child when they kicked, hit, and slammed the child to the floor.
The initial reason reason they gave was that they were reenacting moves from Mortal Kombat. Garcia's aunt and stepmother believed that this was just an alibi, and that video game violence was not the issue.
The sister, Trujillo, got a plea bargain and received an 18-year suspended sentence, and six years in a youth offender program.

The more it changes the more it stays the same, nobody wants to hear the truth (gun control, bad parenting, mental issues), for me it was Heavy Metal music when I grew up, Satan and black masses and so on, seems kinda funny now.
