A 16-year-old Queens youth confessed early this morning to the grisly slaying of radio newsman George Weber, who was stabbed as many as 50 times in his Brooklyn apartment, The Post has learned.

I don't know if anyone on the board knows Weber, but the details in the story are jawdropping. Craigslist was involved.
 
Wow, that may be the most bizarre story I have read on here. And this is the site that brought us "man has sex with picnic table" and "girl has sex toy mishap with saw"

And "woman's ass stuck on toilet seat after sitting on it for two years straight."
 
I have been following this story because I know the area where the guy lived... Did anyone else read through that whole description and then cringe at the last sentence in the story: "The newsman's family released a statement yesterday remembering him as "a truly caring person who loved and was loved by all he met." "?
 
Why are people still willing to rendezvous with those that they meet anonymously on Craigslist? Just sayin' ...

No kidding. I guess there's a fine line between love and frenzied, homicidal hate.

Nice pictures of the kid posing with a....what is that, a samurai sword?

Wow.. to die is terrible. To die the way he did is even worse. But to die after doing coke and getting drunk with an underage child is just unbelievable.

He died doing what he loved.

Heaven needed a submissive asphyxiophile to do traffic and weather on the 8s?

This is old but it still fits the stories you are after.

The same reason they go home with some stranger they just met at a bar: they're horny.

OK, but this isn'tthe first Craigslist meeting that has gone wrong.. wasn't it a Craiglist person who cut the baby out of that woman's belly a few years ago? ****, at a bar you're at least looking the person in the face.

In my experience, anonymous Craigslist meetings do not require you to wear a bag over your head, but I'm sure if you are specific in your ad you can get it that way.

In Minnesota that nanny got killed by a guy who answered a craigslist post. But overall I don't think it's anymore dangerous. Just thinking of NYC, there have been about three high-profile cases in the last two years of young women who were killed by guys they had just met at the bar the night of their death. And a few months ago a young college kid was killed by a guy he met while walking through the park at like 4 in the morning. They went back to his place to do coke and have sex and the guy stabbed him about 50 times. The crazies are everywhere, I guess.

And you can find a lot of them hanging out in parks at 4 in the morning.

I wasn't drinking anything, yet I still blew pop through my nose.

I have never been murdered by someone that I picked up at the bar after doing coke with them and asking them to choke me while we fornicate. Just sayin'.
