The man killed his step-son when he lost in 'Mortal Kombat'.
A man who killed his stepson because of an argument over a video game has been sent to prison for 18 years and ordered to compensate the child’s mother with 95,000 €.

The court in Tarragona heard how the accused, 19 year old Luigi D.G. killed the 11 month old baby because the child distracted him and forced him to lose a game of ‘Mortal Kombat’.

It happened last September in his home in Reus, Barcelona.

In 18 years, this lunatic will be free to do whatever he wants again. How is 18 years justice?
