Double Murder Tragedy on Halloween
Gainsville, Florida – (AP)
Posted: Nov. 3rd, 2007

This was to be the first year that the State of Florida successfully banned Halloween. The concern, according to state officials, was that the current infestation of the undead virus, in its refusal to relinquish it's grip on Miami, would make it impossible to distinguish between Halloween party goers and real mortosis reanimates.

That fear, that paranoia, was the very thing that got Mark Gleeson (21) and Jason Bentchley (20) killed on Wednesday evening. It is a tragedy that has shocked this university community, and caused much hand wringing at city hall.

Gleeson and Bentchley were attending an illegal Halloween party on NW 7th Avenue. There was a palpable sense of excitement in the air. Not just because it was Halloween, but also the covert party, the real life reanimate presence just a days drive south. However, neighbor Nathaniel Tarcher (56) was experiencing different feelings. Those of fear and dread. He was a self confessed loaner. An alcoholic and sufferer of schizophrenia.

His reaction upon seeing Gleeson and Bentchley walking past his ground floor window was not one of curiosity. It was fear. Tarcher did not see two university students trying to find a a very secretive party, Tarcher instead saw two infected undead menacing his property.

Tarcher could not see past the amateur make up, the fake blood and rubber cement, He reached for his shotgun. Never far from his side. He killed Bentchley first, with a single shot to the abdomen, them Gleeson, first in his right leg, then his back, as he tried to flee.

Nathaniel Tarcher is now in Gainsville police custody on $50,000 bail. His first court appearance is November 8th. His court appointed attorney in a press statement released today, stated that Tarcher has expressed deep remorse for his actions and his confusion that lead to this double killing in the the darkly lit streets of Gainsville last night.

Tarcher is expected to plead guilty to a lesser charge of manslaughter.
