Israel - Murder tips aid case

AN Israeli who stabbed his mother and father to death was convicted of murder on Monday partly because he searched online for tips, such as, "How to kill your parents and get away with it."

Daniel Maoz, 29, wanted money from his inheritance in order to pay heavy gambling debts, the Jerusalem District Court found. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for the 2011 murders.

The case presented an unusual challenge: DNA evidence linking Maoz to the killings was found at the murder scene, his parents' apartment, and he tried to explain that by accusing his identical twin brother. The court cited other physical evidence and the defendant's computer searches to refute that.
