Saddest thing I've read in a while: serious Xbox rage, Philadelphia style



A 26-year-old Brewerytown man was sentenced yesterday to 221/2 to 45 years in prison for killing his infant daughter after she disrupted his Xbox game.

The killer, Tyrone Spellman, pursed his lips as Common Pleas Court Judge Jeffrey Minehart said that he had never seen a homicide more shocking.

The child, Alayiah, was 17 months old. She was killed Sept. 7, 2006, when she provoked Spellman's ire by tripping over a plug that disconnected the Xbox video-game system he was playing.
