Lethalfind Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Teen Burned Alive Over Pregnancy Likely Not Pregnant POSTED: 12:19 pm EST March 3, 2006 UPDATED: 12:50 pm EST March 3, 2006 A 17-year-old girl who was doused with gasoline and burned alive because her ex-boyfriend thought she was having a baby was likely not pregnant, according to a medical examiner involved in the case. Thursday, Dane Abdool, 20, of Ocoee, Fla., was charged with murder after confessing to setting Amelia Sookdeo on fire because she may have been pregnant, police told Local 6 News. "The medical examiner found no evidence that she was having a baby," Local 6 reporter Mike DeForest said Friday. Winter Garden police said the initial investigation into Sookdeo's death began on Feb. 25 when officers noticed a small fire on the east side of County Road 545. When officers extinguished the flames, they found Sookdeo's body burned beyond recognition. Sookdeo was reported missing by her mother earlier the same day after she left her home through a window without her parents' knowledge. An investigation into the homicide led to Abdool, who at first denied any involvement in the crime, according to the report. However, when police confronted him with inconsistencies in his story and presented a set of tire marks from his car photographed at the scene, Abdool confessed to the crime, Local 6 News reported. "He admitted that he had met his former girlfriend that night, she sneaked out and he picked her up and went to his apartment in Ocoee," Winter Garden Police Chief George Brennan said. "From there they left and had an argument and he took her down County Road 545, forced her out of the car. He poured gasoline on her and ignited it." Abdool told police that he was arguing with Sookdeo over her possible pregnancy and he was just trying to scare her, Local 6 News reported. Duct tape was found at the scene, along with gloves to which Abdool would have had access to at his work, police said. Abdool was charged with first-degree murder late Thursday. http://www.local6.com/news/7651149/detail.html Quote I am a pathetic piece of shit leeching single mom.
hugo Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 My main point has always been that women should be selective with who they breed with. This gal paid the ultimate price for stupidly breeding with a murderous thug. When you invite homicidal maniacs into your life expect the results to be negative. This world ain't kind to the stupid.

snafu Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 It said she wasn’t pregnant but did she cheat on him? It sounds like the guy was jealous. She would’ve fried anyway for not getting his lunch or something. He had to potential so it was only a matter of time. Women can be so gullible sometimes.

Hugh G. Rekshun Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Another "Abdoul" gone awry! Seems like towelheads named Abdool. Abdoul, Abdulla, and all derivitives threreof, are scumsucking maniacs anyway. Maybe we should focus our attention on torching Abdouls Quote "May you sit naked in Hell for all eternity with your tender rectum resting squarely upon the sharp end of a red hot barbed stalagmite, all the while you are tormented forever by hideous demons who force you to listen to endless Barry Manilow and Elton John duets of Ashlee Simpson's greatest hits, let this fate befall all those who so much as plagiarize one single word from my work"
TheJenn88 Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Hugo, it would only serve you right if you were wronged at some point in your life by someone you trust and love. Then you'd understand the concept of being fooled - tricked - deceived. People cannot, no matter how wonderful and brilliant you think you are, decrypt what is going on in someone else's head, or understand them fully. You don't know that these things could happen to you, but they can, and they might, no matter how much you trust them. What might seem like a good decision at the time (in her case, supposedly having sex and getting pregnant), can ultimately back fire, and get you betrayed (or killed). People don't have the ability to predict the outcomes of all their actions, so I suggest you stop acting like it's possible. Quote

papabryant Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Guess I shouldn't tell anyone that he is right, huh? Probably not - too many let the fact that her death was tragic overshadow the fact that she made bad choices. Yes, she was fooled, but because the man saw her foolishness coming. He had a lot of foolishness to work with. Quote A Christian with a Bible is a nuisance to your comfortable level of non-belief.

eddo Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Angie, don't get me wrong. What happened to this girl is absolutely awful, and she in no way deserved it. But I would bet my last dollar that this wasn't his first violent reponse to her, and what does she do? She sneaks out of her parents house to see him? Sorry, but she could have prevented this.

No, what you fail to see is that this guy had trouble written all over him for anyone to see and she CHOSE him anyway. And this lack of good sense seems to have infected far too many women these days. Traditional values are "confining" at best and "sexist and fascist" at worst. Good men with manners and responsible behavior are "boring". "Dangerous" men are far more exciting. Women like the "bad boys" and talk among themselves about how they will "change" him. That's what is bullshit. He isn't going to change. The days of women "civilizing" men are over, thanks to the abandonment of those paternalistic values that "kept women down". In the rush to change what was wrong with the "old system" (and there was plenty wrong), YOU WOMEN threw the baby out with the bathwater. And now the social pressures that forced men to behave themselves aren't there. Violence against women, once rare but quiet, is now loud and everywhere. This is NOT to say that this young woman deserved to die or that her actual death is anyone's fault other thant the rat bastard who killed her. But her BEING in the position to have violence perpetrated upon her WAS her own fault. And my being an Irrational Prick doesn't change that fact. I really wish it did.

TheJenn88 Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 Putting any blame on her is irrational. Why not... Blame the drug dealer for selling the drugs, not the person who took them. Blame the bartender who sold the drinks, not the person who drank them. Blame the girl who dressed pretty, not the man who raped her. Those statements above are bullshit, but what ya'll are saying is that somehow, there is logic to putting partial blame on this girl who was killed. Sure, there's a probability that doing drugs will kill you, drinking will get you in an accident, and dressing sexy will lure some idiot prick. And yes, there's a probability that her boyfriend showed signs of instability before he killed her. But NO ONE other than the boyfriend, or the druggie, drunk driver, or rapist, is guilty, should be blamed. These victims don't ask to become such. They are made as one. They are not people who can look in to the future and be able to see if they are going to be crossed by someone else for taking certain actions. Quote
Lethalfind Posted March 5, 2006 Author Posted March 5, 2006 They hold this opinion because they are the same kind of person... Take advantage of someone if they are dumb enough to let you is their moto. As for Hugo having a woman in his life, thats hard to believe...unless "Doormat" is her middle name. Or maybe a blow up doll, that sounds like more his style. Quote I am a pathetic piece of shit leeching single mom.

But I would bet my last dollar that this wasn't his first violent reponse to her, and what does she do? She sneaks out of her parents house to see him? Sorry, but she could have prevented this. I do believe I read in there 'ex-boyfriend'. Maybe she was sneaking out to talk to him about the possibility of a pregnancy. It would be the responsible thing to do if he was the father. I DON'T CARE WHETHER OR NOT IT WAS HIS FIRST VIOLENT RESPONSE TO HER. She still shouldn't be blamed. Ultimately he is the one who killed her. And there is always a difference between someone hitting you (which is also NEVER OKAY) and setting you on fire. No, what you fail to see is that this guy had trouble written all over him for anyone to see and she CHOSE him anyway Really? Do you know him? His life story? Does he wear boxers or briefs? Good men with manners and responsible behavior are "boring". "Dangerous" men are far more exciting. Women like the "bad boys" and talk among themselves about how they will "change" him. I think you've watched one too many "Lifetime" movies. In the rush to change what was wrong with the "old system" (and there was plenty wrong), YOU WOMEN threw the baby out with the bathwater. And now the social pressures that forced men to behave themselves aren't there. Violence against women, once rare but quiet, is now loud and everywhere. No. There has always been domestic violence. The only difference is now there are more resources for the victims and it isn't nearly as taboo to discuss as it was 50 years ago BECAUSE the patriarchal bullshit is finally starting to disappear. PERHAPS there is more domestic violence now than there was 50 years ago but you cannot blame that on the women. There is more violent crime now than there was then. But her BEING in the position to have violence perpetrated upon her WAS her own fault. So....say tomorrow, a drunk driver slams into my car and kills me. Is it MY FAULT for having put myself in the situation to get hit? Or the other driver's fault? Quote http://www.darwinawards.com/ http://www.snopes.com http://www.breakthechain.org STOP THE SPAM!!

Interesting assumption, I did an internet search and found no mention of this young man other then the recent mention of him confessing to having set his ex-girlfriend on fire. I can assure you that if he had been violent in the past it will come out and it will only make things worse for him. He is being charged with 1st degree murder in a death penalty state. From what this article says and one other on the same website, it sounds like he came prepared to burn her alive, bringing all the supplies he needed with him.

They are not people who can look in to the future and be able to see if they are going to be crossed by someone else for taking certain actions. You are actually very close to what Hugo, eddo and I are saying. But there is still a very natural but wrong-headed attempt to absolve this girl from ANY blame because to the tragic nature of what happened. I cannot stress how wrong that would be. She is not blameless, and making her blameless artificially would be to lose the powerful lesson this tragedy can teach other young women about being careful who they date or sleep with, and about what contitutes a dangerous individual whom you should not get involved with in the first place. About how you cannot "change" him from the violent animal he is, and about how making the wrong choices can cost you your life. I know its not intentional on anyone's part, but it is still very frustrating to see what is happening here. Removing the proper blame from this young woman for the events that happened is to make her life and death meaningless and in vain. Please stop.
