Parents take away Playstation; boy hires a hitman

You cannot question this kids dedication to the Playstation, you can however question his sanity. Cory Ryder, a 16-year-old decided to hire a hitman to “take care” of his parents after they took away his Playstation. Thankfully the hitman was actually an undercover cop, who turned out to have been hired by his mother. Cory received a ride from his mom’s friend to go and meet the hitman where he offered up his stepdad’s pickup as payment. After the “deal” was made, Cory was quickly taken into custody being charged with attempted murder.

Sadly I am sure that some people will make an effort to use this as just another reason why video games are bad for children.
