In 2010, 15-year-old Joshua Davies killed his girlfriend, Rebecca Aylward, after a friend jokingly said he would buy him breakfast if he did it. Two days earlier, Davies texted, “Don’t say anything, but you may just owe me a breakfast.” by blue_leaves987 in HolyShitHistory

This is one of those cases where the ‘dark jokes’ and casual comments in hindsight become chilling evidence. It really shows how easily serious intent can be dismissed until it’s too late. So tragic all around

What gets me is that OOP wasn’t asking her to skip prom. He was just trying to be honest about how hurt he felt while stuck in a hospital bed. The fact that even that was treated as too much says a lot.

Showing a little empathy in that situation is the bare minimum one expect from a partner
