Man With Implanted Horns Gets Life For 3 Killings, Tells Jury, ‘I’ll See You In Hell’
A Massachusetts man who has implanted bumps on his forehead resembling horns maintained his innocence before a judge sentenced him on Monday to three consecutive life terms in the killings of three men who were kidnapped, shot and dismembered in 2011, according to KOMO News.
[su_center_ad]34-year-old Caius Veiovis said at this sentencing,”Let me make this clear, my hand wasn’t in this.”
On Friday, Veiovis was convicted in the killings of David Glasser, 44; Edward Frampton, 58, and Robert Chadwell, 47, all from Pittsfield where the defendant resides.
“I’ll see you in hell,” Veivois told the jury, which took six days to convict him.
The Associated Press reports:
Veiovis was the third co-defendant convicted of first-degree murder. All have been sentenced to the mandatory life in prison without parole.
Prosecutors said Veiovis helped Adam Lee Hall, 37, of Peru, and David Chalue, 47, of North Adams, kidnap and shoot the victims weeks before Glasser was to testify against Hall, a Hells Angels member, in an assault case. The others were killed to eliminate witnesses to Glasser’s killing, prosecutors said.
In his statement, Veiovis said authorities didn’t believe he killed the men and offered him a plea bargain which he rejected.
Berkshire District Attorney David Capeless said outside the court that he and other investigators never said they thought Veiovis didn’t kill the men and plea negotiations were conducted with all the defendants.
According to Defense lawyer James Reardon Jr., he regrets Veiovis’ outburst in court and he said that his client is not the kind of person portrayed in the media.
Veiovis displays a 666 tattoo between two rows of forehead bumps which resemble horns.
Veiovis legally changed his name from Roy Gutfinski Jr. in 2008 while serving more than seven years in a Maine prison for assault.[su_csky_ad]

If by “in” he meant “from,” I agree.

But he looks like such a nice man.

Anomaly, I’ve been meaning to mention this, but is it time to have your eyes examined again? It sure gave me a different view on things around me.

You’re right. I have cataracts. How could you tell?

when you start tatooing your face and having implants that are horns, you are not a mentally fit person
fahvel September 30th, 2014 at 12:49 pm
why? If it weren’t for the homicides he’s be just another goofball with a need to change his appearance.

“Defense lawyer James Reardon Jr. says he regrets his client’s outburst in court and he said that his client is not the kind of person portrayed in the media.”
Riiiiiight. He has horns implanted on his skull, he’s got tats on his neck and face, he’s already done time in Maine for an assault, and he just threatened 12 citizens doing their civic duty with some kind of retribution. Why, he’s a goddamn prince, isn’t he? I’m sure he’s just what every mother would want in a son. He’s not a wacko hater of everyone different from him, he’s just a bit misunderstood. Riiiiight.
Mr. Gutfinski, you think your earlier stretch was tough? It was a hayride compared to what you will experience in your new, permanent digs. Enjoy!

The job of a defense lawyer is to offer a vigorous defense for their client even if we don’t like their client……I wouldn’t want to live in a society where u don’t have an opportunity to mount a defense…..

Well said.
Guy Lauten September 30th, 2014 at 3:56 pm
Absolutely. Bravo to the advocate for doing his job.
But it is also the job of every citizen with 1/2 a brain to see Mr. Gutfinski for what he really is, no matter how strident his mouthpiece’s exhortations to the opposite are.

If you need a tattoo artist to display your true belief along with plastic surgery I will go out on a limb to say your more insane then anti religious.

Prisons are there for just this kind of individual.

Interesting this case…He believes he is an avatar of righteous vengeance. With some loose translation his name correlates to “rejoice in vengeance”.
