Lanum “admired the Joker because everything he did, he did for a reason, like killing people, and he agreed with the philosophy of doing things for a reason,” was Montowski’s chilling appraisal of her boyfriend to federal investigators questioning her at INOVA Fairfax Hospital after the shooting. FBI Special Agent Jennifer V. Collins submitted the affidavit charging Montowski with being an accessory after the fact to assault on maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the US (Fort Eustis). The affidavit notes that Montowski initially refused to give her name and was admitted to the hospital under the name Havana Havana.
The most detailed descriptions to date of both the Skyline Drive shooting and what led up to it are contained in the FBI affidavit citing Montowski for her role in an attack on Army Specialist Mitchell Stone, a soldier who shared a suite with Lanum in Building 696 at the Fort Eusis Army Post in Newport News. According to that affidavit, Lanum and Patsy Montowski fled Fort Eustis after a fight during which Lanum slashed both Stone’s thighs and throat after Stone was repeatedly shocked with a stun gun by both Lanum and Montowski. Montowski admitted the stun gun was hers and that she had carried it with her when she left Lanum’s room to get cigarettes out of her car shorlty before the altercation at the base. Stone also told authorities Lanum had a Joker Halloween costume on at the time he was attacked. Both Stone and Montowski concured that Lanum had not yet painted his face like the Joker at the time of the attack around 5:40 a.m.

I guess some people take Hollywood too serious. Anyways this happened on Skyline Drive in Front Royal VA

That's disturbing and sad.

Totally crazy. It's disturbing the amount of domestic violence we are hearing about from Iraq/Afghanistan vets, PTSD and so forth. Hopefully we will be able to have our VA services up and running again (to where they should be) so this kind of thing doesn't have to be a daily occurence.

Lanum slashed both Stone’s thighs and throat after Stone was repeatedly shocked with a stun gun by both Lanum and Montowski.

What a way to go....They obviously knew what they were doing to incur the maximum amount of bloodloss.

EDIT: Just imagine two people holding you down by tasering meanwhile slashing you with a knife. They probably even snuck up on him too so he couldn't react.

There was a guy that dressed up as the joker and tried stealing movie posters from a theatre a while back. That was hilarious!

They never have in the past.... so I wouldn't expect miracles.
