Instructions of where to sit are usually issued at dinner parties and when someone's posing you - but reports of a different type of set-up is in the news today. It seems a man in the US asked his estranged wife Carolyn to sit near the front window of the house and told her he'd be right back. He was right about that - except he left out one tiny detail - that he'd be back with his pickup truck through the front wall of the house in an alleged attempt to kill her. The woman was not injured in the event and she, and her daughter, escaped out the back door. The husband, David E. Monroe, has been charged with attempted murder, criminal recklessness with a vehicle and disorderly conduct.
It seems this was not the first inkling that something was awry. Carolyn told police that she and her teenage daughter had already fled because he had threatened to kill her. It's not clear if it was then or after this attempt that Monroe told police he hoped his wife died and that "I hope to go to prison for this."
