“Spam King” Eddie Davidson Escapes from Jail Then Kills Wife, Daughter, and Himself

“Spam King” Edward ‘Eddie’ Davidson, his wife and 3-year-old daughter escaped recently from the minimum-security federal prison in Florence, Colorado. He has now been found dead after shooting his wife and three-year-old daughter.

Davidson’s 7-month boy was found unharmed in the SUV and a teenage girl, shot in the neck, made it to a farm house to report the crime.

Davidson, 35, was serving a 21-month sentence for illegal spamming when he escaped after his wife came to visit him.

I never thought that anyone could make spammers look even worse, but Davidson succeeded.

    If there is no law against paying spammers to do the work, legislators should make one and then go after the companies that pay these freaks.

    If it cost a penny to send an email, spa mwould be gone forever. Hell, if it cost a penny to send 10 emails it would kill spam.

    Sorry to detract from this true tragedy with a digression, folks.

    These spam kings are millionaires, the money comes from somewhere – cut it off. But that would mean the government going after corporations, and cutting off campaign contributions.
