I dont condone murder, and I am not saying what Gatti's wife did was right, BUT...

Gatti's wife tried to stab him in the back of the head..... I dont care how drunk anyone is, they would wake up from that...

I THINK that Gatti probably got up and fight back, but couldnt because he was too drunk.. the wife got her strap and strangled him....

Again, I am just speculating...

I'm pretty sure that the stab left Gatti incapacitated although it didn't kill him and his wife then strangled him to death.

Women do it for the families sake... For the child's sake.....

that's not true, women stick with wife-beaters because they feel too pathetic and worthless to be alone. The kids are a convenient excuse to stay, I know of plenty of women who stay in these abusive relationships who have no kids.

Its like this...

She was in a position in life that she could have never achieved her self.... She loved Arturo because of what she gave and what he did for her..... There is a sense of loyalty there... Not only that, woman, more than men, want the best for their children and doesnt want to be left high and dry as a single mother...

Check this out..... My mother and father had a kid before they were married... Well my mom and dad got married... On the HONEYMOON my dad whooped her ass.... My mom loved him and did whatever she could for him and saw that as his only downfall.... She figured she could live with it to make a better life for her and her kids and have a family.... See that is a woman's dream, the fairy tale happy family.... Throughout the marriage this continued and my mom starting fighting back and broke 3 or 4 ribs..... Try to do this and that....

Well 20 years later, she was tired of taking his **** and they split up.....

Women do it for the families sake... For the child's sake.....

That's pitiful. How is getting ****ed up anything to do with a fairy tale?
And how is woman getting her ass beat good for the kids?
It's a warped, effed up mentality.
Sure women want security more than us, but is getting ur ass kicked security?
To me that's just more problems, and the kids get to watch it all.

If a woman is getting her azz beat, gtfo out of the house. point blank.
Poor rich whatever.
IMO.

its called a divorce....its a great alternative to killing someone


Htown, i kinda see where you're coming from but for me, the timing of this thread just leaves a bad taste...

Co ****in sign. Leave it be HTown. Let the Mr boat buyer stans make these threads homey. You're better than this.

[My Name Is...]

If it's true he was abusive, leave him and have him charged. But killin him is just outta this world crazy. I read the title HTown and I believe you didn't make this thread in bad taste homey, but come on man.

Well I have seen first hand how beating a woman effects her psyche..... But like Dominacano Soy, to say kill the *****???

I know it might ruffle some feathers, but unless you have seen it, and see how emotionally scarred it leaves women, you wont understand.....

My dad was the nicest guy ever and still is, but he had that problem.... No one believed my mom, until one day her friend stopped by uninvited... The front door was a screen door and was open.... Well my brother told her come in, so when she came in she saw to the other end of the house, my dad whooping her ass..... Well my dad didnt know she saw or was even their and came out like there were no problems..... My mom was so ****ed in the head, that she snapped, and tried to run him over, and broke his ribs.....

I am just speaking the truth....

[Welter_Skelter]

If Gatti did beat her up, like it was reported on BS a while back, and if he did argue with her and throw her down to the street in public, and cause injuries to her arm and chin, i can damn near promise you, that this was not the second time this thing has happened. On top of that he got a taxi ride home and left her to walk, that is some ******* **** to do....

My dad used to whoop the **** out of my mom..... This isnt just something that happens once and that is it.... This is a constant and chronic problem that people have.... My mom flipped just like Gatti's wife, and broke my dad's ribs....

And sometimes, as in this case, she couldnt take anymore.... People have a limit... Seems like there were some skeletons in the closet.....

Its like a kid in school that gets picked on by a bully constantly.... Finally, they have enough... Thats what I think happened here....

Again, I am not saying this was right, and I dont wish death on anybody.... But I think that Gatti's wife had reached her limit and couldnt take it anymore... Was it right to kill Arturo?? HELL NO... But once someone gets pushed to the limit time after time, they finally go over the edge...

But why is SHE the Victim.. maybe she pushed him to HIS edge.. and he couldn't take anymore.. Whenever a man acts out.. he is being violent, regardless of what she did.. when she lashes out.. she is ALWAYS the victim..Yeah right..

Here is a fact for you.. Every single woman I have ever has a Serious relationship with.. has struck me out of anger or frustration at least once.. I have struck Zero..

Whatever the reason, I don't feel like this was an abusive relationship in which years off pent up frustration exploded all at once.

Gatti had not been with his wife for long, it was not the same woman whom Gatti was charged with assaulting a year previously.

His wife probably lost it after the heated confrontation, or it may have been a pre-mediated murder. It's all speculation at the moment.

Damn...didn't check. Thanks forth Source.



If Gatti was drunk and passed out, that's the perfect time to get him if you are women. You could probably strangle someone real quickly if they are already passed out from being drunk. Even if they tried to wake up, and I'm just guessing, they wouldn't have enough energy left to do anything about it. Senses may be slow from being drunk and by the time your body may (or may not respond) it's just too late because you are losing too much oxygen.
And I'm not sure adrenaline would sky-rocket if you are passed out from being drunk.



If he was beating her, she should have left him and not killed him. He's dead now and she might go to jail (if she did it). That leaves the kids Fatherless and Motherless.

[S.G.]

it was a PREMEDITATED murder... she planned that ****, it's probably why she dragged him out on a "second honeymoon"

it's disgusting. Gatti may have done some ****ed up **** to her but she could have got out, even gotten revenge without resorting to this

[My Name Is...]

Here is a fact for you.. Every single woman I have ever has a Serious relationship with.. has struck me out of anger or frustration at least once.. I have struck Zero..

But the common denominator in both the cases that have been reported on here, have been that he was drunk on both occasions.....

Like I said earlier.... There were better ways to take care of this.... Cops, divorce, and so on....

But usually men that beat their wives have them messed up in the head.... And usually when a woman tries to leave the guy, the guy doesnt take it well...

i dont want anyone to think I am pro - death.... No ****ing way...

But remember there are 3 sides to every story...

Your story, their story, and the truth.....
