We think of them as our friends. We trust them and let our guard down around them. But they can be used against us.

I’ll let the facts speak for themselves: [Donna Lange, Washington Woman, Accused Of Using Her Breasts To Smother And Kill Boyfriend](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/16/donna-lange-breasts-smother-kill-boyfriend-everett-washington_n_2486189.html).

You can have her boobs when you pry them from my cold, dead hands.

I’ll sleep soundly tonight. My wife’s A cups are anything but deadly.

No, honey. There’s great. Really. I love them.

If boobs are outlawed, only outlaws will have boobs.

Which I guess will make mug shot galleries the new porn.

I’d prefer to die of natural causes at a ripe old age, but if I had to be murdered, this is probably the best way to have it happen.  
Even a woman’s quote from the article agrees, ‘Treasure – I wanted your death to be as pleasurable as possible,’"

All I know for sure is that if CSI is demanding prints, they’re going to need a Whole Lot 'O Ink (and possibly 11x17 paper).  
Then again, can you imagine all those police show plots re-done with the addition of breast-prints to CSI?

“I don’t know about that, Danno. Run her prints through the database just to be sure.”

Among the large helpings of WTF in that article, I just have to single out this bit:

> [@huffpost](#):
>
> Police noted the size difference between Lange and her boyfriend – she was 5-feet, 6-inches and 192 pounds, he was 5-feet, 7-inches and 175 pounds.

So. They noticed that there…wasn’t really a size difference at all then? Is there a point they’re trying to make there?

Oh, and:

> [@](#):
>
> Luckily, the man regained consciousness, but the two broke up shortly thereafter.

No shit?

Boobs don’t kill people. People kill people with boobs.
