GRAPHIC VIDEO: 'I Can't Control Myself'

By Kevin Boie

In a jailhouse interview on Friday, a man charged with fatally shooting his wife and injuring his two children admitted to the crime.

Michael Turner said he was in a fit of rage when he opened fire in the family's Mesquite home on Wednesday morning.

The 29-year-old said he killed the woman, 31-year-old Monique Turner, because, he said, she planned to turn him in to police for an outstanding warrant.

At the beginning of his interview with FOX 4, Turner asked reporter Scott Sayres if he could convince jailers to allow him to shower.

"I still got that girl blood on me from the day it happened. You heard me?" Turner said. "Put that on the news."

Turner said while he intended to kill his wife, he did not mean to shoot the children.

"I shot their momma," Turner said. "I'm terribly sorry, man, for shooting them kids. It was just, like, I guess, it was motherly instinct that -- when the gun went off -- to cover her kids up … and I just kept shooting," he said. "I had a .45 caliber pistol, you heard me? All I had to do was pull the trigger one time at them kids and they were dead. So that just goes to show you I didn’t just target them kids."

The children, ages 11 and 7, were wounded but expected to recover. An 8-month-old who was also in the home when the shooting happened was not hurt.

Turner said despite being shot, his wife was able to tell the children that she loved them. He said he then put the children in the bathroom and returned to his wife to finish her off.

"I shot her and then beat her to death. You heard me?" he said.

He has no regrets, he said. "Not for killing her, no," he said. However, Turner said he was sorry that his children were wounded.

He also said that it was probably best that he was in jail and likely to serve a long prison sentence. [No, that's not best - Hopefully your stay on death row is very short, asshole. ]

"I can’t control myself," he said. "If you done tick me off to a way that I can’t handle it, I'm going to do something to you, man."

Turner is charged with murder and two counts of attempted capital murder and is being held on $3 million bond.

He faces three other charges from three different cities, including one for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and two involving drugs.

It is truly sickening to even read this. He's sorry for nothing especially since he's playing the card to the reporter about "they won't let me shower". God will prevail and justice will be served.

It hurts just listening to the ignorant s.o.b.

How much money could the state raise by raffling off the opportunity to pull the trigger at this fucker's execution? You could sell the tickets nationwide and use the funds to support his kids thru college.

Be glad that this didn't happen here in California. If it did and he made it to death row, he could very well be there for 25 years exhausting appeal after appeal. Sometimes I hate this state and I am a native born Californian. Damned Liberals.
