Lennon's killer Chapman 'wanted to become somebody'

John Lennon's killer Mark David Chapman has told the parole board in New York he thought by killing the Beatle he would become a somebody. "I wasn't thinking clearly," Chapman stated, "I made a horrible decision to end another human being's life, for reasons of selfishness."

"I felt that by killing John Lennon I would become somebody and instead of that I became a murderer and murderers are not somebodies," he said.

In a closing statement, Chapman said his life had changed because of Jesus. "I know him, he is with me, he is with me now, he is helping me speak to you now. Without him I am nothing, I would have been an even bigger nobody."

Nice move Mark.

I am cured. I am repentant. I am a nobody. I see dead people.

Parole denied.
