Did you know Mark Chapman, the killer of John Lennon, is still married?
They just had a brief snippet on CNN with his wife, (more will on that network later,) she stayed faithful, even though he was a doper, and was very abusive.

No one mentioned though that he's a fundy nutcase, also.

2. I don't know, really.
She's stayed faithful to Chapman all these years, visits him in jail, she's small, and Asian.

From Wiki
She is Japanese-American....and from Hawaii.

So you are both right.

7. He whose name does not deserve to be remembered
As my brother once said. My brother was occasionally insightful.

8. Really! Giving that creep what he wanted is the last thing we should do.
His name is not spoken EVER by anyone I know, nor should it ever be.

John Lennon - Chapman's Wife To Reporters: 'Stop Calling Me'
14 August 2008

Gloria Hiroko Chapman married 53-year-old Mark just 18 months before he shot Lennon dead outside the ex-Beatle's New York home in December 1980. The pair has remained married ever since - though she now lives in seclusion in Hawaii, where they wed.

But Gloria is losing her temper with the constant media presence outside her Honolulu home, telling one photojournalist from the New York Daily News: "I felt like God wanted me to come over and talk to you... I think you know my name, otherwise you wouldn't be here getting a picture of me." She then responded with a message for the press, adding: "Only one thing, ask them to stop calling me."

Earlier this week the newspaper revealed that incarcerated Chapman has been enjoying conjugal visits with his wife at New York's Attica Correctional Facility for the last 16 years.
