In the News Linux guru and convicted murdered Hans Reiser was handed a prison sentence of 15-to-life Friday, putting a final capstone on a case that began as a murder mystery, and ended with Reiser leading police to a makeshift grave a short distance from where he strangled his wife.

I remember reading if they found any bullet-in-the-back-of-the-head type stuff there would be no deal, so I guess they bought into the crime of passion thing? OtherwisE I'm not sure why'd they'd cut his sentence like that just for a body.


I'm sure Mr. Reiser is going to come off as particularly sympathetic when up for parole. Not.
