Hans Reiser Leads Police To Nina's Body

jlmcgraw was the first to alert us that Hans Reiser has led police to the location in the Oakland Hills where he buried the body of his wife Nina. (We discussed the rumor that he would do so last month.) SFGate.com reports that remains were recovered but have not yet been identified. Reiser is to be sentenced on Wednesday. CBS5 claims that Reiser made a deal for a reduced sentence, to 15 years, in exchange for revealing the body.

    I hear that Cal prisons are pretty nasty right now. The north calimexs are having a war with the south calimexs. Mrs Reiser could sell his services as an algorithm designer to determine the optimal kill order for G's on the other side; or they may just ass rape him to death.

    I wouldn't entirely rule out the "Nina Reiser put a hit out on him and said she would only let him live if he agreed to point the police towards the body of the random person the organized crime syndicate she hired offed a few days earlier who happens to have similar height, build, and gender to Nina Reiser" theory, either....

    Until DNA evidence says it is her, I'm not convinced beyond reasonable doubt. Even if/when DNA evidence says it is her body, I'm not convinced beyond reasonable doubt that it was premeditated, which is what is necessary for a Murder I conviction. There's too much reason to believe that the jury convicted him more for his lack of social skills than because of proof of premeditation beyond reasonable doubt....

    Besides, with all his reported strangeness, it isn't at all improbable that she died accidentally. There's far more reason to suspect some sort of super-rough, kinky sex gone terribly wrong than premeditated murder.... The preponderance of evidence actually points away from the jury verdict, at least based on what we've seen thus far. Maybe more evidence will come out eventually, but....

    Hans has a black belt in judo, he'll survive better than another nerd might.
    Well let's hope for his sake he knows the martial art rather than JUDO - the Java IDE for Children and Beginning Programmers!!

    I'm sure a black belt in judo is the surest way to a gang raping in prison. Come on, it's judo. We're talking about prison.
    Well going on the wikipedia description of Judo, it's possible that Hans might be the one using it to his advantage:
    "...Its most prominent feature is its competitive element, where the object is to either throw one's opponent to the ground, immobilize or otherwise subdue one's opponent with a grappling maneuver, or force an opponent to submit by joint locking the elbow or by applying a choke. Strikes and thrusts..."

    Still from a defensive pount of view Judo is good at throwing people off your back.... unfortunately though as he will soon discover you can't watch your back all the time particularly not when you've been asked to pickup the soap.... So maybe we will all be refering to "ReiserFS" as "ReiserForcedSex" where Hans is having his own file system journaled rigorously with lots of tail packing to reduce his own internal fragmentation. One thing for sure he will gain a new understanding of terms such as "open sourced", "shareware" and "public domain". I just hope for his sake that he's resolve his fsck issues otherwise he's seriously fsck'd!

    OK then, random internet fuckwit, let me take you through this.

    I was diagnosed, by an actual diagnostic professional, in 1994 when few people knew what the condition was. My mother did not push anybody to diagnose me, and neither her not I knew what it was when they told me.

    Unlike you, random internet fuckwit, I am not actually a loser. Despite my condition I am now able to study, work and have friends. None of these has ever been a trivial task.

    You, on the other hand, are just a wanker. A pathetic insecure creature projecting your ignorance and self-loathing onto others over the internet in a way you dare not to their face.

    You do not have a user account, you manage to be a coward even on an internet forum - the ultimate tool for letting lippy cocksuckers who couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag say what they like to people without getting a richly deserved kicking.

    We have laws like that in Britain, but they only apply to Pakistanis.
