I Cut Her Head Off and Set Her on Fire: Ohio Man Allegedly Killed and Decapitated Adoptive Mother in Front of a Child, Blamed the Holy Spirit
Authorities in Ohio arrested and charged a 34-year-old man accused of killing his adoptive mother before sawing off her head and setting her body and house on fire. Investigators reportedly said that Lionel Justin Gore admitted to the slaying of Diane Gore, saying the Holy Spirit made him do it and that the victim was the devil.
Snip....
Deputies reportedly spoke to Lionel Gores 6-year-old nephew, who allegedly witnessed the horrific events that took place in the moments before the blaze.
The boy reportedly told investigators that he witnessed Lionel holding a knife and sawing at [Diane Gores] neck. He reportedly said Lionel began the decapitation using a smaller knife, then retrieved a larger knife and continued sawing. The suspect then set the house on fire with the boy still inside, forcing the child to crawl out on his own due to the smoke, per the affidavit.

And after 40+ years of doing that, we now have a list of mentally ill behavior that our society has come to accept as A-OK.

This has all the makings of a horrific horror movie and local legend.
