Two bullets for a PlayStation?
Now people love their technology, but it seems some people take this way too far.
Witness the case of young Cory Ryder, who at the tender age of 16 tried to hire a hit man to have his parents whacked after they took away his PlayStation and posters. He told an undercover police officer posing as the assassin that "two bullets is all it takes," the court trying him heard.
His stepfather, an IT consultant, would have provided the killer's fee in the form of his car. Thankfully, and as is usually the case in these things, the contract killer turned out to be a police officer. But you can bet this will lead to some difficult family reunions in later years.
