Here's an update on that Arizona decapitation story. More details have appeared in the press, including motivation:
The Phoenix man charged with beheading his wife on July 25 was "trying to get the evil" out of her, according to a police report released Monday...

Wakefield, who had been released from the state hospital for the criminally insane about eight months ago, cut off his left arm at the elbow and gouged out his right eye. He told police he had been smoking marijuana and spice before the bloody attacks.
We also have an excellent photo of the accused:

That prison thing was primarily New York. Vermont is still working on its own Gothic.
