A WOMAN stabbed her de facto husband to death after he stopped her playing her favourite Bruce Springsteen CD.
Karen Lee Cooper told arresting police: "I couldn't even play Bruce Springsteen on my stereo - can you believe that? Can you believe that?"
She later again told police: "I mean, who doesn't like Bruce Springsteen?"
"I'm 49 years old and I want to play my own music."
In the Supreme Courty in Brisbane today, Cooper, 50, was jailed for eight years.
She pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Kevin Lee Watson on July 8, 2006.
She was originally charged with murder but the Crown accepted a manslaughter plea on the basis she had no intention to kill.
The court heard Cooper stabbed Watson through the aorta after they had been drinking at their Cedar Grove home, south of Brisbane.

An appropriate sentence would be 3 months of listening to Bon Jovi! |

One good reason I am single - I don't think I could ever love any woman as much as I love my collection. |

Too fucking right.
Entirely justifiable.
Philistine.

feedback on this from Backstreets.com:
"Seems a bit extreme -- but then again, maybe not?"
"If there was ever a reason for an acquittal..."
"I think Bruce should tour Australia soon... sounds like there's some pent up frustration!"
"She's got a point."
"So maybe Sweden, Italy, and Philly don't have the most diehard fans after all?"

On greasylake, they're speculating what album she may have been listening to which may have caused this incident.
One poster reckoned (somewhat harshly IMO) that "If she was playing the Seeger Sessions he should have stabbed her first.."
