DeKleine sentenced to life in prison

<quoted text> She is the one and only one that pushed him over the edge with her actions - all her actions! So yes, should she have been more civilized - this outcome may have been totally different. Should at least try to be friends after a divorce for the kids - be civil - not have affairs to shove in your spouse's face!! Ever been cheated on? If not, then you don't know the pain - but Ken found out the pain.

Clearly - he snapped!!! He loved his children and that was a big part of the problem (with her new lifestyle)

If it was that he snapped, he would show remorse. Saying that he sleeps better now that he killed her - that's not someone who snapped. If he snapped, he wouldn't have planned it like he did. People who snap do it in the heat of passion. This had a lot of thought put into it.

Remember the cop who killed his wife the Judge. Her lifestyle, her greed (take him for all he is worth attitude) got her killed to. So you women keep pushing the men and watch out for the consequences. I have seen too many men get screwed by lazy, greedy, selfish woman. I knew this cop and she pushed and pushed and pushed - till he snapped!

I have been cheated on. I caught my soon to be ex-husband on three different occassions, all with different women - twice in our bed. I agree that she should have been more civilized, but both were nasty to each other throughout the divorce. All I'm saying is that she didn't deserve to die. Like I said, many people are cheated on every day. It hurts, but it doesn't give you a right to murder someone. If he was that close to the edge, it was his responsibility to seek help. And no one cares to talk about the fact that he left her for his children to find. Did she push him towards that? Don't think so. This didn't necessitate murder. And there is no excuse it.

Three different occasions with different women. Sounds like you need help - should have left after the first one - have some dignity girl!!

And I knew her, and it wasn't deserved. Any reasonable human being knows it too. Having someone cheat on you, or say bad things about you, that doesn't mean you get to kill them. The cop who killed his wife the judge is just as bad. He didn't snap, and you know it. He planned this. I don't care if she was cheating, or wanted all of the money - it doesn't mean that she deserved to be killed. My ex-husband cheated, stole my paycheck right out of my purse, bought his girlfriend some nice things from Victoria's Secret with my credit card, but I didn't and wouldn't kill him. He is a cold blooded killer, bottom line. It was premeditated. Again - people who snap don't plan the crimes they commit.

So what does that show his children. That instead of learning how to deal with it with dignity you just snap and kill someone and leave them for your children to find. Just because she was acting a certain way doesn't constitue him murdering her. I bet you also say that women that dress a certain way deserve to get assaulted.

Hence soon to be ex-husband. You asked if I knew how it felt to be cheated on - I answered. You don't need to attack me personally. Apparently you haven't been in that situation, because you try to keep your family together.

Sue wrote:

<quoted text>Yeah I was there once and that was plenty. Keeping your family together in that atmosphere - right!! Good one!! Not attacking - just common sense. Once should have been enough for any woman.

Once is enough, but you also want to trust. And it wasn't over several years - it was in quick succession, so it ended. First marriage, high school sweetheart, not easy to walk away. But my decision, and it was a lesson learned. Some take it for longer than others, although definitely wouldn't happen that way next time! But it looks like we're really good at arguing about anything we discuss. I don't think the DeKleine situation was right, you think she pushed him.(Probably because each knows one side better than the other.) You got rid of them after cheating once, I didn't. Agree to disagree? I feel like we're beating a dead horse and going in circles. Have a good one! <quoted text>

I disagree....perhaps if the justice system were a little less biased instead of always feeling sorry for the woman, this never would have happened. Perhaps Ken felt it was a better option, after his wife took out a PPO,likely tried to turn his kids against him, and was busy screwing her therapist, more than likely in HIS house...read the WHOLE STORY BEFORE you pass judgement..while what he did was wrong, it certainly doesn't warrant the death penalty....save that for the idiots in the jewelry store robbery in Grand Haven.<quoted text>

Never once did I say that she was a saint. I'm sure that she did things that shouldn't have been done throughout their messy divorce, as did Ken. But it's completely ignorant to post a comment saying that she asked for it. No one deserves to be murdered. You're forgetting some pretty awful things about the situation as well - like that he left her for his children to find. Great parenting right there. He may have been punished, but not as he should have. He ended her life - forever changing the lifes of her children, family, and those who knew her. He still has his, and we all get to pay for it out of our checks. The worst part about it, is there is no remorse. And as for wrong ends of accusations, you have to have police reports to file a PPO. Sounds like there was something substantial to back up her need for protection.(Clearly - if he killed her.)And this isn't a fairytale world. Things like this happen, but it doesn't make them right. He is a murderer, bottom line. She may have said things about him that weren't true, as he did about her. That doesn't mean that she deserved to die. So go on and continue to defend someone who admitted to stealing the life of another, scarred his children by leaving her for them to find, and then shows no remorse whatsoever, and even claims to sleep better now that he killed her.
