A woman in Seattle has been charged with first-degree murder after she killed her father with an ice axe for refusing to shut off the lights in her house, police say.
Corey Burke, 31, allegedly told detectives that she was trying to convince her 67-year-old father, Timothy, to shut the lights off, but could not make him budge. She also told police that she had been in a highly emotional state due to the election, and felt that there was "something important" about Election Day, according to the Seattle Times.
