Umm, Hus, not putting down Memphians or anything but have you ever SEEN a really pissed off female Memphian? Umm, there's really no moving or grabbing an arm, umm, imagine a tornado with hair all over you, growling and biting..... I learned in school (Memphis City School System) that I would live if I fought a male, but not a female. In 1984, high school, a girl beat a boy with a hard drive. He was carried away in an ambulance.

She could have sneaked up on him and really whacked him before he knew what was happening.

Even so bordfryr, 1 shot to the head with an iPod isn't gonna knock you out..I'm with IP on this, after the first few shots, I'd slap a cobra clutch on her or something...

He was probably already passed out drunk before she started beating on him!
Not that any sort of drinking goes on down there in Memphis

Wow...I never realized an iPod was so tough. Does it still work? If so, Apple should use it as publicity
I too wonder how she killed him without any fight. Man, how weak was that guy?
But, it does prove a valuable lesson- don't mess with your significant other's tunes!

How can you stab someone with a flat, rounded edge, rectangle object?
Maybe the guy was drunk or stoned, which is the reason the fight started to begin with.

MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE (HLN) - A Memphis woman was arrested and charged with first-degree murder after she bludgeoned her boyfriend to death with an iPod.
Arleen Mathers, 23, was arrested Thursday morning after she called Memphis Police and said she had killed her boyfriend, according to a Sheriff’s Department report.
When deputies arrived at Mathers’ apartment at 528 Poplar Avenue, Mathers led them to the body of her boyfriend, Brad Pulaski, 27.
Brad Pulaski had died of blunt trauma to the head after being repeatedly bludgeoned with an iPod, a popular MP3 player produced by Apple.
Police said no motive has been confirmed, although evidence suggested the murder was the result of a domestic dispute after Pulaski erased the contents of Mathers’ iPod.
According to law officers, Mathers was hysterical when police arrived and told them that she killed her boyfriend only after he accused her of illegally downloading music and erased about 2,000 of her MP3s. Mathers complained that it took 3 months to build her music collection.
An autopsy performed Friday afternoon at Methodist Hospital showed that Brad Pulaski had been beat multiple times in the face and chest by a blunt metal object, and died of internal bleeding, said Dr. Felix Klamut, deputy coroner.
According to Apple’s website, the iPod is partially made of a hard metal plate that’s been praised for it’s resistance to regular wear and tear, like drops and coffee spills.
“It took him a while to die,” Dr. Klamut said. “She must have stabbed him 40 to 80 times with that iPod. His death was not instantaneous, that’s for sure”
Arleen Mathers was arraigned Friday night by a video hookup from the county jail. Municipal Court Judge Simon Lambert set her bond at $600,000 and scheduled a preliminary hearing for March 9.
