Your Weekly Cuppa Dizzy: A Sad Update

Wow. This is very sad. A few days ago, in my (mostly) daily round-up, I posted a link in regards to the “Spam King” escaping from a minimum security prison in Florence, CO.

Now, news has come out that he has been found dead, along with his wife and child.


‘Spam King’ found dead : Local News : The Rocky Mountain News

Sunday night he pulled off a seamless escape from a prison in Florence, jumping into a 2006 silver Toyota Sequoia with his visiting wife and speeding away.

On Thursday morning, he drove to his wife’s former home near Bennett and fatally shot her and his toddler daughter.

Then he killed himself.

He was Colorado’s troubled “Spam King,” a computer whiz who made millions only to see his life come crashing down, ending on a quiet basin of prairie.

Dirt roads carve the path to the yellow two-story house where police found the lifeless bodies of Edward Davidson, 35, and his wife and child, after responding to a call at 11:15 a.m.

Police cars and media trucks lined the 43000 block of East Arkansas Place by midafternoon, when the coroner arrived at the scene.

It’s a sad state of affairs when a person feels his only way out of trouble is to kill himself and take his family with him.
