Was there a nugget in the biscuit? Perhaps some mashed potatoes, or even BBQ sauce?

Awesome. With a dead baby on the sign, how could anyone say this was unexpected?

Is "murder of an unborn child" supposed to be a way around charging someone without classifying the fetus as a person?

Might be a funny headline to your average 5th grader. Ooh..his name is COX..Snerk.
This kid had been given a chance by the manager - despite being a repeat offender who had only recently been released from prison. He repays that by killing a 23 year old pregnant woman 3 1/2 months later and disposing of her body in a dumpster
Yeah, I'm bout to pee myself laughing.

My boyfriend and I planned to eat dinner at the Flying Biscuit that Saturday night. When we pulled up, the whole place was covered in police tape and all of the businesses in that building were shut down. Kinda freaky to think that the guy who murdered that woman could have been making or serving our food.

I think we can all agree that this man should be found innocent of all charges, provided that he then goes on whipping up brie en croute.
On the one hand, we're down a single pregnant woman. But on the other, we've short-changed an entire community by removing the source of a delicious comestible. Think of the greater good.

It's worse than that. The crime that got him sent to prison was
armed robbery of the restaurant he worked in
. The manager who hired him (not the girl that was murdered) knew he'd been convicted of a crime previously, but apparently didn't bother to ask when that was or what it was he'd been convicted of.

I didn't even know that The Flying Biscuit (aka "The F'ing B") had a restaurant in Charlotte. I thought they were concentrating on going out of business here in Atlanta.

Yeah, It's sad. I'm local to this story and I understand that the DA is going to put him on trial for two murders, one for the woman and one for the child, law became effective the first of the year. He wasn't supposed to be there in the first place, felons can't work where alcohol is served. Also feel bad for her fiance, lost his soon to be wife and his first born child.
He guy confessed, take him out back and put a bullet between his eyes, end of story.

How can you charge him with killing an unborn baby if the government doesn't consider the unborn baby a human being in regards to abortion?

Good question but it's just semantics so maybe no one's bothered to argue with it. They could call it aggravated feticide or something.

A mother may choose to terminate a pregnancy, though not just at any old time. In many states, a woman cannot abort a pregnancy if the child could survive outside the womb. However, if someone else terminates that pregnancy through an act of violence, in some states he can be charged with murder. In this case, he killed the mother and the law allowing him to also be charged with murder of the unborn child is brand new. It is unclear if the charge will stick, if they can get a conviction, or if they do, if it will stand the appellate process.

A shame for this lady, the only schadenfreude I feel is for the Flying Biscuit. I hate that place, most pretentious "hipster" restaurant ever. Their food sucks and is way overpriced, though their customers won't ever know that, too busy basking in the retro-irony of the garage sale nailed to the walls and the fact that 90% of their fellow customers are wearing lesbian librarian glasses too.

I could not agree with you more. It's a lady//lezzie/gay froo-froo sort of place that thinks they are all that. Most of them have gone belly-up here. I didn't know they hipsters have discovered it. I guess bad, over-priced girly food is hip.

Or you could just call it what it is: Trolling.

No mention of the SIX HOUR RESPONSE TIME FROM THE CHARLOTTE POLICE??? The woman phoned the fiancee from the restaurant. He heard shouting and immediately called 911.
Even after that it took CPD 13 minutes to go to the wrong address. Who knows if the woman of baby may have survived if there was a faster response.
That's some fine police work there, boys. Next time just call the Springfield police Resc-U-Fone.

Whenever I hear of a person being charged with a double murder in regards to a pregnant woman, I think of Clint Eastwood's True Crime movie and how retarded it was. Nothing but UNBORN CHILD UNBORN CHILD all the damn way through.
I suppose the media would also try to remind me of Laci Petersen, but fark the media.

once a criminal always a criminal with you. My dad told some of the guys he knew in prison not to bother going for parole. The reason is the state makes the parolee pay the state. since ex-cons have a real hard time getting work, it is easier on them to serve their time and walk out without owing the state anything. spent 7 years around prisons (not as prisoner) and have felt safer around a couple of them (one was serving a sentence for a triple homicide) than a cop. Seen some messed up stuff, but it can be very predictable and you learned real quick how not to be in the way at the wrong time. 5 years I played softball against them, meaning they had bats and most games no guards around to protect you. 2 years Bible study, we walked unescorted through the general population and visited cells as we pleased.

Flying biscuit killer? First thing I thought of was this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2NP4WZJ-mI
Also, I love the Flying Biscuit on McLendon in Atlanta. Mac and cheese squares and oven fried chicken with collards and sweet tea, yum. But their biscuits ain't right. You get a better biscuit from the drive-through at Hardee's.

Was it a ricochet biscuit? The kind of biscuit that bounces back off the wall and into your mouth and if it don't bounce back (hee hee) you go hungry, bow bow bow?

I ate at the one in Raleigh from time to time. To think, such a grisly murder taking place at an affiliate franchise of a place where I once ate some fried green tomatoes! Well, it certainly gives one pause.
