A man in Britain was stabbed to death after he confronted his former friend with a knife, only to have the table turned on him. Neil Brook,33, was accused of murdering his friend and neighbour, 27- year-old Josef Witkowski. All this over a mis-spelled text message -– thanks to predictive spelling. Brook told the police he sent Mr Witkowski a text containing the word “nutter”, but, because of predictive text, it came out as “mutter”.
Witkowski then went to Brook’s apartment and attacked Brook with a knife. Brook grabbed his own knife and stabbed Witkowski, stabbing him in the heart. Witkowski had 104 injuries including cuts, stab wounds, bruises and slice marks on his hands.
Brook has been found guilty of manslaughter. All this over a spelling mistake.
