The family involved seems a wee tad dysfunctional. Mama Mason’s boys (yes, there are three involved) don’t seem like the sharpest points in the punch-kit:
The charges said Jacob Cobb strangled his mother on the living room floor. Then he or his brother Andrew put a plastic bag over her head and tightened a belt around her neck. Clemens allegedly drove her body west to South Dakota, then east to Glenwood, Minn., before storing the corpse in a garbage can in a shed for months until the ground thawed enough for the two elder brothers to bury it.
Sounds like the makings of a good Coen Brothers movie. Or a bad Joe Pesci movie…
Bonus One: The climatic battle scene from the South Park episode “You Have Zero Friends”.
Bonus Two: Body Count’s “Momma’s Gotta Die Tonight”:
(Both of those are a little NSFW…)
