Man allegedly sang Guns N’ Roses song before killing ex-girlfriend

A Costa Mesa man reportedly drank cherry vodka and took prescription pills while singing along to Guns N’ Roses before he shot and killed his business partner, prosecutors allege in court documents.

Thomas Michael Wilhelm, 48, reportedly belted out the lyrics "I used to love her but I had to kill her" from the song "Used to Love Her" in his room before visiting his neighbor and allegedly stealing a handgun.

That gun was used to shoot Christine Murray, 35, according to a transcript of the grand jury indictment obtained by Times Community News.

Murray and Wilhelm had once dated but at the time of the alleged crime were only business partners.

The transcript sheds light on the July 8 shooting of Murray, who lived with Wilhelm at a home in the 2900 block of Redwood Avenue with her 8-year-old son, according to the transcript.

A possible motive was that Wilhelm felt Murray tried to take over the sprinkler business that bore his name — a point of pride for Wilhelm, according to Senior Deputy Dist. Atty. Jim Mendelson.

"A lot of the issue had to do with the business name, the Wilhelm business name," Mendelson told the Orange County Grand Jury. "Mr. Wilhelm took great pride in the Wilhelm sprinkler name — his name on the business."

On the day Murray was killed, she and Wilhelm fought over ownership of the sprinkler company, and she told him they could talk about business when he was sober, to which he replied, "Basically, that will be never," Mendelson said.

"The one thing that you are going to hear about Mr. Wilhelm is his business endeavors were severely hampered because he had a real substance-abuse problem for multiple types of substances and alcohol," Mendelson said.

Before Murray met Wilhelm about three years ago, Wilhelm owned the business with a former girlfriend and split the business when they parted ways.

Eventually, Murray and the former girlfriend would forge a bond over Wilhelm's behavior. The former girlfriend heard from Murray minutes before she was killed, receiving a text message that read:

"He's drunk, locked in his room, listening to his oldies music, singing at the top of his lungs, hammered as hell, says we will talk soon," Murray reportedly wrote to Wilhelm's former girlfriend. "I told him when he is sober. Says he doesn't intend to ever be. Good then I don't need to change your name, you won't need it."

Who gives a fuck what he was singing? The relation between GNR and killing someone is a ridiculous notion.

wait, if he killed her how does this "press story" know what he was singing? Oh nvm it's not real news, a blog...

I figure there are plenty more people fucking to GNR than killing people. ;)

Wow. Defensive much? In 2006ish, a St Augustine, Fl man downloaded 'UTLH' hours before his wife was stabbed by an "unkown, masked assailant" while walking with her husband on the beach. This was reported all over the local news, world news, and the trial was featured on what used to be Court Tv. Would you consider that "real news", champ?

Also, I don't know many people who "fuck to GNR". Just because you jerk off to This I Love while sitting on the toilet doesn't make it a common occurence - or even half way normal for that matter.

bba how was vegas?

Good. Met Axl backstage. Found out Axl and Izzy spent time at the Studio of Palms recording studio, etc.

Come on.. everybody knows that you don`t leave the cave you are living in, and of course, you don`t know how to fuck. That's why you are having all that sexual tension on your writing. Fucking parasite :kiss:
