    • SuperWinner, on 08/01/2008, -5/+78these days? I believe violent crime is down a lot from 20 years ago, certainly its down a lot from 100, 200 and 500 years ago.
      There will ALWAYS be violence like this, no matter what we do. We are animals plain and simple, and animals under stress will do crazy *****, like this.
      • schuder, on 08/01/2008, -16/+3Violent crime is one thing, this kind of violence...
      • toxicshok, on 08/01/2008, -1/+14When more people live in a location, there is a larger percent of aberrant behavior and psychological conditions.
      • buckygrad, on 08/01/2008, -2/+0I doubt that it is down "a lot". I bet it has stayed relatively the same given population increases. 1 in 10,000 people are just nut jobs.
      • Gauthic, on 08/01/2008, -0/+5/agree !

        Back in the good-old days we used to (for example) shove 10 foot poles through the anuses of our enemies (ALIVE!) and let them hang there until they rotted off!

        Also back then decapitation was a mercy killing as it was fast.

        We preferred to kill slowly and agonizingly as it showed our enemies who's boss.

      Seriously ... is anybody else annoyed at what seems to be the over abundance of stories posted linked to these sites?
      • HellifIno, on 08/01/2008, -1/+7Stop looking at them? Bury them on sight?
        I mean, if ya wanna roll hardcore, you'll add them your adblock/peerguardian blacklists, but that can slow down your browser...
    • wannapiece, on 08/01/2008, -12/+1I know.. It's sad people think they can be a narc or a rat and get away with it
    • titansfan4life, on 08/01/2008, -0/+5people are not just messed up today they have benn messed up as long as there have been people
    • wejmahtin, on 08/01/2008, -0/+3Here is a link to the article in Globo which reads very differently. He denies having killed her in the article. You can probably translate it with babelfish.

      And now I read about this
      it's so sad
    • GovernmentsGun, on 08/01/2008, -0/+2That depends on how much you wrap yourself up in the news. Being obsessed with other people's lives can be a horrible thing, terribly depressing, and can lead to a great many evils.

      Seriously, news loves to show the bad stuff. It gets ratings. When you watch it, its like your in some fantasy land.
  • Haoie, on 07/31/2008, -7/+27This is the sort of news that absolutely destroys tourism.

    And of course, very tragic for the family/friends.

    • ninjarabbits, on 08/01/2008, -2/+13Don't forget about all those disembodied human feet that have been found along the coast of British Columbia.
      • HellifIno, on 08/01/2008, -4/+2Bad choice of words. If only a foot were found, there's been some disembody-type thing happening, yes?
        And yeah, if anybody missed it, s' true. Random feet have been washing up over the past few months. Last I heard, none so far have matched in either a DNA or "right foot left foot" manner.

        K thx owned gg thx bai.
    • gmwatkins, on 08/01/2008, -0/+5I'm pretty sure people have been being decapitated for roughly 3 million years or so. It just didn't make the news back then...

    • Telmarine, on 08/01/2008, -6/+7its a ***** decapitated girl in the suitcase what the hell do you find so funny about it
    • pwnerofnoobs, on 08/01/2008, -4/+2agreed
  • Dumbledorito, on 08/01/2008, -11/+4Hmm. If someone has been hacked to pieces, "decapitated" bespeaks either a lack of vocabulary or observational prowess on the part of the headline writer.
  • Andrew33, on 08/01/2008, -4/+22First the decapitation of the young fellow on the greyhound bus, and now this?

    What the ***** is wrong with our world
    • JBmtk, on 08/01/2008, -2/+10This kind of ***** happens all the time, it's just that we don't always hear about it.
      • bitterbug, on 08/01/2008, -1/+4No, it doesn't happen all that much, but the media jumps on it to make it seem like it happens all the time.
        Just like kids are not actually going out and killing each other in the thousands every minute of the day, but the media always speaks about this culture of youth violence.
        Then people my age (35) and older start blabbing about how things were different when they were younger. But as Jello Biafra said, it's "Nostalgia for a time that never existed."
      • chrisostermann, on 08/01/2008, -0/+4Yes, it does happen all that much. Take a look at news coming out of Africa. Take a look at the news *not* coming out of burma.

        But just because it shows up twice on digg does not mean the world is coming to an end, and just because it happens every day doesnt mean that the world is coming to an end. Nothing has changed, your perception is just being broadened.
      • Rohhob, on 08/01/2008, -0/+2What planet are you from where people get decapitated all the time?
      • chrisostermann, on 08/01/2008, -1/+1Seriously bro, do a little research. Beheading is historically a very popular means of not only execution but a way to desecrate a corpse.

  • codeblue315, on 08/01/2008, -1/+20Does anyone else find that pic of the alleged killer smiling ***** creepy?
    • Luke1h7, on 08/01/2008, -1/+2No, not really. People who murder other people and cut them up are creepy enough smiling or not. I don't see what him smiling has to do with it.
    • adamjlynch, on 08/01/2008, -0/+1is is more creepy that i think that chick is kinda hot?
    • codeblue315, on 08/01/2008, -0/+3Yeah but the fact that he's got a smile on his face while going to look for her body just shows how much of a twisted ***** he really is. That is, if he did it.

      And @adamjlynch, yeah, she's kinda hot, but definitely not the time to point that out, lol.

      The suitcase was discovered last Monday and was identified by a tattoo reading 'Mum'. The rest of Cara's body - including her head - have still not been found.

    • dromni, on 08/01/2008, -0/+3There are dozens of Brazilian cities with more than, say, one million people. Goiania is even kind of small as Brazilian metropolises go. But it is natural that people people outside Brazil know only Rio and São Paulo, which are the two REALLY big ones, NYC-sized I think.

    However, I'm getting tired of having to bury Daily Mail stories. Is there a way for me to block submitters who post anything from Daily Mail, kinda like how you can block commenters?
  • silverzone, on 08/01/2008, -1/+3Wow, in between this and the dude that hacked off the guys head on the greyhound bus makes me feel impending doom.
  • jvieira, on 08/01/2008, -13/+1was she a juggalo?
  • OverthrowTheNWO, on 08/01/2008, -13/+23Probably a suicide.
  • headzoo, on 08/01/2008, -1/+21I can't even imagine what it's like for a parent to go through this. They spent years raising and nurturing her, and then someone comes along and takes it all away in the most brutal fashion. I don't know how someone could even recover from that.
    • Lobsangrs, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1agreed, and I can't imagine how such a cuddly girl get involved with an ugly bum like that! and for God's sake the ***** was still high when police got ahold of him and showed to the reporters.. thus the reason for the evil grin in his face.
      I do not wish him to die. I wish him to be locked out on a cell suffering the effects of drug abstinence, while being haunted by her. and please don't ask for him to be deported to UK. those prisons are like a hilton's room near the brazilian ones. let him rot in a cell here, dirtier than a pig slum and more crowded than a japanese subway car.
      he won't last long, believe me. in 3 months he'll became grinded meat.
  • bradmoreland, on 08/01/2008, -18/+3She's kind of cute. I wonder what they're going to do with the head after the trial.

  • digiguy, on 08/01/2008, -0/+12The guy looks like a moron.
    • Teanuh, on 08/01/2008, -0/+2He's probably got some psychological disorder. I am thinking anti-social. Very scary imo, they feel no remorse.
      • Lobsangrs, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1get on crack really heavy and tell me what you would look like :)
        hes a god damn drug dealer that broke the first rule: never smoke your stuff.

    • jivecjedkin, on 08/01/2008, -1/+7I agree, plus what's with the mom letting her 17 year old daughter go to Brazil because some guy bought her a ticket? Sad. Hang out with dicks and they will ***** you.
  • geekymonkey, on 08/01/2008, -4/+4Alternate headline: Decapitated body of girl with amputated appendages found hacked to pieces in suitcase.

    Redundant headline is redundant.
    • xrod, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1No it's not. And your alternate headline isn't either. A body with no head that is otherwise intact could be found in a suitcase, correct? Stating that the body was further hacked to pieces is not redundant. One acceptable definition of BODY is "TORSO: the main part of the physical structure of a human being or animal, not including the head, arms, legs, or wings."
  • singularityv, on 08/01/2008, -0/+6It's a sad, sad commentary that my first thought was "another one?".

    • griz, on 08/01/2008, -1/+7Again?
    • LongBong, on 08/01/2008, -2/+17there is no god.
      • RedneckRandy, on 08/01/2008, -2/+8yes there is. but if you piss him off or forget to stroke his ego, you'll be tortured for all of eternity. but he does loves you!
    • chrisostermann, on 08/01/2008, -1/+7LOL @ Redneck saying their should be a biblical flood. You have nothing to worry about if that were to happen, just float away in your trailer!
    • Blackham, on 08/01/2008, -3/+2The only reason god hasn't sent another flood, is because the first one accomplished absolutely nothing.
      • BossKey, on 08/01/2008, -2/+5Actually it's because He's still pondering the question "If the point of the Flood was to fix my own bad idea, and yet I'm omniscient, then doesn't that mean I'm not perfect? Dammit!"
    • ordig, on 08/01/2008, -3/+3God is a sick ***** that likes to decapitate people
    • 140Suffolk, on 08/03/2008, -0/+1It's not "...the human race..."
      It's one particular group that makes an outsize contribution.
      That kills their daughters for wearing lipstick. That kills their nieces for looking at the wrong guy.
      One particular group.
      C'mon. Just say it.
  • TomT223, on 08/01/2008, -6/+11To bad Brazil abolished the death penalty.
    • Ortheos, on 08/01/2008, -0/+1So what would that do? Bring the girl back to life? Catch the person who did it magically What? Keep the maniac from doing it int he first place? No chance in hell.

      If you can cut up a little girl into pieces, you don't give a ***** about the consequences.

      Death penalty is like jerking off for justice, it makes you feel good, but the criminal feels nothing afterward.

      We need to make the criminal feel something for a very long time but not with direct torture. Just a scummy unhygienic horrid jail populated with big fat hairy scary men looking for fresh ***** would do just nicely. No chance of release of course, and the inmates would work to earn their food, less taxpayer money going to support their lifelong torturing session needed.
      • Lobsangrs, on 08/02/2008, -0/+1"We need to make the criminal feel something for a very long time but not with direct torture. Just a scummy unhygienic horrid jail populated with big fat hairy scary men looking for fresh ***** would do just nicely."

        such a true description of brazilian jails. believe me, he will be heading for one of the more cruel jail systems in activity today.
