"It's Gone Daddy Gone, the Love is Gone. Yeah it's Gone Daddy Gone, the Love is Gone Away."

Okay my friends and neighbors, it's time for your next installmen of Today's Motherfucker.

Now it would have been easy to pin this on Ann Coulter for, in a roundabout way, calling former Senator and Presidential candidate John Edwards a "faggot", but everyone knows how crazy that bitch is so it would kinda be beating the dead horse Ms. Coulter so uncannily resembles.

I could have also gone the way of Scooter Libby, but since the entirely wrong man was prosecuted in that case I don't really see the point in piling on.

Instead we're going to establish a Today's Motherfucker first and name two men as co-winners.

I have to warn you....this two stories are going to make you ill.

First we go to Bedford, Indiana where Eric Johnson, 47, and his 8-year old daughter Emily died when Johnson deliberately crashed his plane into the home of his former mother-in-law.

Johnson and his wife Beth divorced in November after 12 years of marriage. Shortly before the flight that ended with Johnson's rented Cessna slamming into the home of Emily's grandmother Vivian Pace, Johnson told his ex-wife he had Emily "and you're not going to get her."

Ms. Pace, who was at home at the time of the crash but was not injured believes the crash to have been deliberate. Authorities are treating the case as a murder-suicide, but had yet to find any notes from Johnson detailing his intentions for the final flight. NTSB officials have also yet to release any details as to radio transmissions Johnson may have made prior to the crash.

Okay, that was pretty bad. This next one could have been much worse.

In Bridgeport, Connecticut, police are holding 21-year old Fermin Rodriguez on a variety of charges, including 1st-degree assault and reckless endangerment following an attack on his 17-year old wife.

After accusing her of cheating on him, Rodriguez proceeded to stab and slash his wife repeatedly. Now get ready to get sick.

Mr. Rodriguez then handed the knife to the couple's 2-year old son and said...."now you stab Mommy."

OH

MY

GOD!!!!!

Thankfully the boy did not follow in his father's footsteps. The woman was saved when her father arrived on the scene after having not heard from her. She was treated for what turned out to be primarily superficial wounds, allowing this story to just be really fucking sad instead of truly fucking tragic.

At last report the boy was safe with relatives and would be reunited with his mother soon.

I can't really say anything more about either of these cases as I already feel a little dead inside.

So I'll summarize simply by saying Eric Johnson and Fermin Rodriguez are Today's Motherfuckers.

What happened to funny Trotter? Okay, the dead horse stuff was funny. But you shouldn't say such nasty things about dead horses. Seriously, what did they ever do to you?
Peace.
