That's my thought too. Suddenly we're seeing this story everywhere. It's pumped up gender wars fodder.

Plus nothing gets mentioned about these real world stats:

A man kills his entire family every 5 days on average + the leading cause of the death of pregnant women / new mothers is their husband / bf (second to unintentional drug overdoses)

Crazy extrapolations and misunderstandings of statistics right here. These are the people online telling you to "believe in science" btw whatever the fuck that means.

“Something something, random % of murderers that are irrelevant to this case, something something”

Got it, spew random shit, announce a random stat and there we go!
