"An attorney for Donald Earl Fite III said he didn’t want to talk about the details of the assault, but that stabbing the fish was “a very low point” in his client’s life."
Hahaha, so he feels worse about stabbing a fish than beating up his ex? Awesome.

Sounds perfectly sane to me. . . I mean if it went along the lines of Oregon man assaults fish, murders girlfriend. Then I would think this guy will probably rape me, chop me up, and put me in a bowl of chili.

"We realized that hamsters are actually mice with afros. People think they're pets, and have them in their houses, but the reality is, a hamster, a gerbil, a guinea pig - all those are, is rats with fur coats on. It's the same thing. You wanna act like it's not what it is... If you think I'm joking, just let him loose in your house and see if he doesn't burrow in to the wall, and start doing rat-like things." - Charlie Murphy

"Donald bought the fish for me, and I'm sure he knew how much I cared for it."
Fite admitted to police that he killed the betta, saying, "If she can't have me, then she can't have the fish."
Deputy district attorney Eric Zimmerman told Judge Eric Bergstrom that the victim had requested restitution for an unusual reason – she wanted Fite to pay for a memorial tattoo she plans to get of the fish. The judge declined to order Fite to pay for the tattoo.
