ACME made me do it

 

The phrase "Blame Game" had a whole new meaning in Philly this week.

Montco murder suspect John Eichinger's defense attorney asked that his client's confession be thrown out because of it was obtained through duress. Eichinger said a detective "threatened him with a gun," and stated that because he worked at Acme, where it was store policy to yield to somebody with a weapon, the confession should be nullified.

...so, does that mean Acme managers carry guns?

In other blame news, a 'burbs man who beat his wife to death "at the request of demons that had escaped from Cleopatra's tomb" may be moved to "a less restrictive facility." (Thx Philly WillDo).

However, conjugal visits would seem to still be out of the question.
