Boynton Beach woman stabbed more than 200 times with screwdriver, dies


Jessica Kalish's estranged wife stabbed her with a screwdriver 222 times in the garage of the Boynton Beach home where they lived, police said Wednesday. Though most of the wounds were not enough to kill, investigators said, the fatal blow was to the neck, severing the spinal cord.

Carol Anne Burger, 57, then put her wife's body in the back seat of Kalish's BMW and drove the car to a medical lot in the 2300 block of South Congress Avenue where she left it. Though police are still reviewing evidence, Lt. Gary Chapman said it is believed Burger then left Kalish's keys and wallet behind a business at 548 East Gateway Blvd., about 5 miles away.

Burger, a triathlete, then walked home. That was on Oct. 22. The next morning, Burger filed a missing person's report with police, saying Kalish did not show up to work and missed a doctor's appointment.

Police found Kalish's body that night. On Friday, Burger fatally shot herself in the head in their backyard.

He was convicted of making two attempts on her life, but the conviction was overturned on appeal. He was acquitted in a second trial. His retrial in 1985 received national attention. (Via CNN )

Make Jerry Curl Great Again

You can't consider yourself a writer if you don't write. In recent years, I have probably said those words to myself so often that they could be considered a mantra; a mantra that I don't want to embody but one that is nonetheless true. I don't write anymore. I don't write to faraway friends. I don't write to remember. I don't write for pleasure. I don't write for release. I don't even Tweet. At a recent job interview (for another job I didn't really want), I was asked what I would do for a living if I could do anything. Without even thinking about it, I said I would be a writer. But that was a stock answer. It's the answer I've always given to that question. But this time the answer felt phony. It felt forced. It didn't feel like me anymore. The real, ugly, scary truth is that I don't know if I still got the right stuff to be the writer I wanted to be. While I have always questioned the validity of my own voice (my
