It’s still a crime to kill talk radio hosts. (Even us unemployed ones.)

by Goldy — Saturday, 7/11/09, 10:31 am

Talk radio hosts nationwide breathed a sigh of relief yesterday when Judge Jeffrey Ramsdell threw the book at Scott Brian White, handing him a 20-year sentence for the brutal axe murder of former KIRO talker Mike Webb.

King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg had only sought a 12-year sentence in exchange for White pleading guilty to 2nd-degree murder, and courtroom observers had speculated that he could have received as little as 8-years, a precedent that some disgruntled listeners might have found awfully tempting. (Only 8 years for taking an axe to Dori? Hmm.)

Fortunately for me and the rest of my radio colleagues, White’s more appropriate sentence sends a clear message that we’re still considered legally human, at least here in King County.

    Only 20 years? Why isn’t this axe murderer doing life? Oh, I get it — because he’s not a woman.

    Yes, although if one is a talk show host and you criticize the local police, don’t expect a prompt investigation.

    blatherwatch raises the question of whether Scott White had an accomplice who has escaped justice due to the incompetence of SPD.

    I don’t quite understand why SPD gets away with so much crap and is left alone by local media.

    For example, recall when a female cop died in an car wreck caused by a car thief named Neal Kelley. There was a brief blurb in the PI about a woman who said she had found Kelley’s ID in her stolen-then-recovered van. The van-theft victim took the ID to SPD, wanting them to haul in Kelley. SPD totally blew her off, since car theft is not a priority for them. A few days later Kelley killed the lady cop. Either the van-theft story was bogus, or it was buried by the press–I never heard any more about it.

    There is a whole litany of crap like this, not just from SPD, but also KCSO and the WSP. Even if reported, it is soft-pedaled. The media just tends to regurgitate whatever the police PR people spout.

    I used to listen to Webb. He once became so angry with a caller he dared him to come down to the studio, because if he did, he’d “get some of this.” Then you could hear a gun dry firing. And Webb then asked the caller if he knew what that was. He was basically threatening to murder one of his listeners.

    For all of HA, Libtardos and us whom think right, long ago Puddy told clueless wonder he was a chronological idiot. Below is another coffin nail!

    Wow, clueless wonder that’s the best you can do.

    Scumbag!!! YOU dance on Mike Webb’s grave.

    First fool when did Mike Webb die? Sometime after April 13, 2007 right.

    And this post is 01/25/2006 at 6:48 pm. Pelletizer does a better job than you moron and that’s not saying much!

    So much for your forensics fool.

    Well if you had a day job Puddy would tell you to keep it, but being the clueless wonder you are, and the dumbest on the block, and a monomaniacal fool, it goes to show you are the clueless wonder – Goodbye!

    So clueless wonder did you scrape Goldy’s web site for all of Puddy and Cynical’s comments? Or anyone who isn’t a libtardo?

    Puddy hopes you know there is a much easier way to scrape a web site. Butt, you’s a clueless wonder libtardo so why should Puddy help you when you want to use it for an attack? Man with this you are proving your arguments are weak sauce.

    Wow, you really are unemployed. Whodathunk many of us whom think right are right?

    The only reason you guys are not more outraged is because Scott White wasn’t a homo-phobic Limbaugh-bot, but Webb’s homosexual live-in lover. So why exactly is this newsworthy compared to all the other murder cases? I don’t see you guys talking at all about the brutal hate-driven slayings of Channon Christian & Christopher Newsome from 2007. But I guess hate-crimes only apply to white people.

    Crusader: You are so right, it was a disgusting crime. Just like the Wichita murders discussed last week. There are some truths in today’s world.

    1) Goldy and is HA Libtardos haven’t placed a thread on Letalvius Cobbins, Vanessa Coleman, Lemaricus Davison, or George Thomas the Christian and Newsome killers. There wasn’t a thread on the Wichita murders either. Yet, David Vitter does something wrong and there is a big blaring headline.

    2) clueless wonder is a chronological idiot

    3) Pelletizer is a dumb bunny.

    clueless wonder, you gave Puddy a dig? When you had the wrong year, let alone the month and day? Does what a fool mean anything to you? It should as it’s you monomaniacal one.

    Puddy knows you understand why people repeat things. You should as you bring up Puddy’s clueless wonder daughter in action comments and you bring it up every month.

    Puddy driving home a salient point on clueless wonder the chronological moronic idiot. When you whip out the next regurgitation and Puddy produces the evidence on your next EPIC FAIL, peeps will remember this one. In fact Puddy has saved this thread so the newbies are introduced to the HA clueless wonder.

    See ya fool!

    Mike Webb was hate talk radio. Clinton and Obama and Godden tried to tell you that hate’s a propreitary property of KKKVI or the Limbaugh Right, but Webb was unhinged hate from top to bottom and from side to side. Maybe that’s why he died.
