CRIME: . . . Even If He Kills Me.

In Cleveland, last summer, Mrs. Jane Kolodziej testified that her husband had threatened to kill her and their two sons, told a judge she thought he was insane. He was sent to a psychiatric ward. Then Mrs. Kolodziej decided she wanted him back again, announced that she had lied, staged a four-day sit-down strike at the hospital. Finally she won his release by signing a waiver on which she said: “I want him out even if he kills me.”

Last week Husband Chester Kolodziej beat her and the two children to death with a two-foot length of pipe.
