A Chicago woman died Saturday night after being stabbed multiple times on Halloween, allegedly by a male friend who was angry about a bag of missing candy.
Maria Adams, 49, was stabbed with "several steak knives" Monday afternoon in the home of Ledell Peoples on the South Side, the Chicago Tribune reports.
Peoples, 55, was charged with attempted first degree murder and aggravated domestic battery, but first-degree murder charges are expected to be filed following Adams' autopsy, NBC Chicago reports.
Peoples allegedly "became so enraged over a missing bag of Halloween candy" that he stabbed Adams multiple times, police told NBC. He apparently thought Adams took the candy.
The Tribune reports that Adams threw plates at Peoples to defend herself, but died at Stroger Hospital Saturday night after being listed in critical condition since Monday.
This isn't funny but still It is never that serious. And isn't Halloween candy like super discounted now at the store anyways? A 55 year old man could've gone and bought plenty more where that came from.
I assume the guy is mentally unstable because I refuse to believe he is fully mentally competent and killed some one over a damn bag of candy, there is no way.
