      Was es nicht alles gibt. Hoax E-Mails sind nicht nur lästig  
und gemein, sondern können auch tödlich sein. 
 
Dies zeigt der Fall des Philip Hall (41). Nachdem ihm 
solcherart von Leuten einer Konkurrenzfirma ein (recht 
böser) Streich gespielt wurde, erstach er kurzerhand 
seine zwölfjährige Tochter. 
 
Urteil: Unzurechnungsfähigkeit (Philip Hall war 
nervlich "vorbelastet". 
 
Also: Hoax-MailerInnen sollten die Konsequenzen 
bedenken, die dieser Mist haben kann.

Hoax e-mails pushed father to kill daughter  
(by Mark Cooney)  
 
(08/17/2001) Just before you dismiss hoax e-mails messages  
as harmless, consider the case of Philip Hall, who killed his  
young daughter as a result of them.  
 
The bizarre case has just resulted in three employees at a  
Welsh computer firm being charged with forgery after they  
allegedly sent the spoof e-mails to Mr. Hall, who worked for  
a rival firm.  
 
The trio are accused of sending e-mails to Mr. Hall, who  
had a history of mental illness, which resulted in him traveling  
to India on what he believed was a business trip.  
 
But when he arrived in Delhi last July and discovered he was  
the victim of a hoax, he suffered a nervous breakdown.  
 
Hours after returning home, he stabbed his 12-year-old daughter  
through the heart as she slept.  
 
The 41-year-old father was cleared of murder late last year by a  
jury at Swansea Crown Court on the grounds of insanity, but was  
ordered to be detained indefinitely at a medium security hospital.  
 
The three men charged have not been named.
