A Minnesota man was sentenced to more than 33 years in prison for stabbing his wife to death during a Bible study session.
Robert Castillo, 41, who pleaded guilty in March to second-degree murder, apologized in court Friday for killing his wife, Corinna Woodhull, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported. They had been married about two years and have five children, who are now ages 11 to 24.
Castillo’s sister told police she hosted a weekly Bible study at her St. Paul home. On the night of March 21, 2023, the couple was sitting on a couch when Castillo whispered something in Woodhull’s ear. After she shook her head “no,” Castillo pulled out a hunting knife and stabbed her multiple times, until his own family disarmed him.
Has anything good ever resulted from Bible study?
I got laid once.
looking back… its probably a good thing that we used protection.
Just a quick safety PSA, bibles are only good for protecting against Judeo-Christian demons. I always recommend keeping an oonusa for yokai, a copy of Bhagavata Purana for preths, etc
I prefer the My armor is contempt. My shield is disgust. My sword is hatred. Path. You won’t hersey here!
My dad, who was only vaguely theistic but had a very good knowledge of the old (and new) testament used to go to Torah study and argue with the Rabbi whenever a point of contention came up.
It resulted in good entertainment for my mother.
sounds like a fun time.
I love a good debate. (like. not an angry debate, but a seriously good discussion.)
It would definitely not have been angry. They liked each other. The Rabbi came over for dinner all the time and stuff. It was weird, his religion was only vague deism and my mother is an atheist but they both got super involved in the temple in their old age, long after I had moved away. My father is no longer with us, but my mother still goes every week. She was even president of the temple for a while. But if you asked her, she would say, “I don’t believe in any of it.”
Besides not kink shaming for beastality and taking large loads, bukkake maybe(?), no.
One day I too will have emissions like a horse
Side note - some kinks deserve to be shamed
The judge sentenced him to 33 1/3 years. In Minnesota, defendants typically serve two-thirds of their sentence in prison and the rest on supervised release.
Castillo had eight prior felony convictions, including second-degree assault for beating another woman with a hammer in 2014. At the time of the knife attack, Castillo was on intensive supervised release and had a warrant out for his arrest after he failed to show up at a court hearing on charges that he assaulted two correctional officers at the Stillwater state prison in 2020.
Fingers crossed this worthless piece of shit dies in prison, but it doesn’t seem likely if he’ll only serve about 22 years. I’m usually pretty heavy on rehabilitation, but this one seems too far-gone. Hopefully they can at least get him a ton of psychiatric help and counseling before he’s released on the slim chance he can change.
No hate quite like Christian love.
I’m not sure how you interpret this story to represent this comment, but it appears to me that Robert’s sister likely invited him to her Bible study, not because he is a Christian but expressly because he is not. He was likely dragged there by his wife Corinna. This seems to be corraborated by the ABC story:
Members of both Woodhull’s and Castillo’s family urged her not to marry him.
“It’s a testament to the kind of person she was that she went through with it, thinking she could help him,” the prosecutor said. “I can’t believe that she knew her wedding vows would ultimately be her death sentence.”
So Corinna, against the advice of everyone who knows Robert, marries into an abusive relationship thinking she can help him, and brings him to his sister’s Bible study, where he stabs her in a supposed drug induced rage, and you interpret his actions as an accurate representation of Christian love? Robert doesn’t represent even Wordly love in this story, let alone Christ like love.
Castle had a message afterward about domestic violence: “Women need to understand: Don’t accept this kind of behavior. It’s not OK.”
Oh yes, women need to understand this isn’t okay. Fucking Jesus fucking wept, was this dickwipe trying to win Tone-Deaf Asshole Of The Century award?
Edit: okay, I had a visceral reaction to the statement and wasn’t being fair to him in how I read it. I think he chose very poor words, but he’s obviously not going to be eloquent at a time like that.
The context makes this statement different.
The above is the victim’s mother, who begged her not to marry her murderer. She says this after stating she found divorce papers in her daughter car after her death, which led her to believe he killed her because she was planning on leaving him.
The above is a statement trying to help women to avoid brutal men to begin with, not blaming them for being victims. It’s saying “if he does this kind of shit, don’t put up with it like my daughter did. Get out immediately.”
But morals have to come from somewhere…right? Aren’t we told repeatedly and vehemently while figuratively bashing our collective brains in with it, that it’s the Bible?
apologizes in court Friday for killing his wife
As if an apology means a damn thing for this.
