World: One old lady kills another for a stupid-sounding reason
- The Massachusetts nursing-home roommates squabbled over placement of a table. Laura Lundquist, 98, allegedly killed her 100-year-old roommate, Elizabeth Barrow, by choking her with a plastic bag. The two fought for weeks over a number of small things, including where to put a table. Lundquist put it at the foot of Barrow’s bed. Barrow complained to a nurse, who moved it, and Lundquist punched the nurse. Barrow’s attorney claims Lundquist made her client’s life “a living hell” in the last few weeks of her life. source
