Murder Suspect Killing Wife
Christopher Piantedosi

A man is accused of murdering his girlfriend in front of their two children, according to Fox News.

A manhunt for Christopher Piantedosi ended after police found him sitting in the parking lot of the state police barracks in Weston, Mass.

Piantedosi is accused of stabbing and killing Kristen Pulisciano at her home in Burlington, Mass., on Thursday, according to the Boston Globe.

FOX News reported earlier that police arrived at the home to find Pulisciano with "obvious stab wounds," according to the District Attorney's office. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Union Leader notes that Piantedosi was previously known as the "Remorseful Robber" after he stole a woman's wallet and GPS device from her purse and then later returned the items.

"I want to get this over with. This has ruined my life,” he told the Leader at the time. That was my first rodeo and I had a short career. Professional thieves don't return their loot.”

I sure hope the kids can stay with their dad or a close relative. I'd hate to see them end up in the system, especially with the image of their mother's murder haunting them. My friend's mom was stab in front of him when he was about 5, by an intruder. Needless to say, it's not something he's ever gotten over.

Sickening. The details about the crime being caught on video weren't released for a couple days. What an absolute monster; I SO wish we had the death penalty here in MA.

And that smile on his face is stomach-turning. I hope he gets bundled in jail.

BTW, his prior crime was regarded sort of humorously. Just goes to show that certain actions may seem funny or goofy, but really aren't, underneath it.

No doubt here! Don't waste money on a trial! Execute him immediately and farm out his organs!

Why is prison even an option? They should be sent straight to the death penalty cells and await execution, with a bullet (cheaper option perhaps). Maybe then people will realize the importance and value of human life. If you take a life, your life should be taken also.

He's just a victim of his fragile male ego. ;-)

The look on his face in his mugshot is straight up creepy.

Well, "Remorseful Robber" may not get any remorse from the judge, jury, prosecutor, and especially the inmates of his "new home".

"I want to get this over with. This has ruined my life,” he told the Leader at the time. That was my first rodeo and I had a short career. Professional thieves don't return their loot.”

the implication of this statement is that if he had succeeded he wouldn't have gone on to murder his girlfriend in front of their children.poor baby.

He was to get this over it because it's ruining his life, dude think about the kids lives and their mother you slaughtered. You're in Mass, so it's probably life in prison and that's not even guaranteed in that liberal state. Too bad it wasn't in Texas.
