In Brazil it is commonplace for a man to get away with murder if he does so in defense of his honour.
>The 35-year-old defendant, Marcio Stanciolli, fired five shots into the body of his wife, Eloisa, a 32-year-old operator of a chain of fashionable clothing stores, as she lay sleeping in a mansion the well-to-do couple and their two children shared in this provincial capital city. He told the court he had done so after she had confirmed his suspicions that she was interested in someone else and wanted to end their marriage.
>The jurors ruled here on May 14 that Mr. Stanciolli was justified in taking action but that he had used means that were not ''moderate'' under the terms of the Brazilian penal code. Based on this finding, Judge Celso Alves de Melo gave Mr. Stanciolli a suspended sentence of two years. The decision was applauded by males and jeered by women in the packed courtroom.

Remind me why we allow these monkeys to live on the same planet as us?
