Brian White Kills UWT Singer, Christopher Johnson

Gonna cry?
Useless Wooden Toys is a thrash band based out of Minneapolis who were performing at a house party in Bloomington, Ind. In the early morning hours, Brian White, 32, got into an altercation with the lead singer, Christopher Johnson, 32. The fight was reportedly over an incident involving White grabbing the ass of another female at the party. The two were separated, but around 5 a.m., White came out of the home and plunged a knife in Johnson’s chest.
Christopher Johnson was pronounced dead at the hospital. White, after stabbing Johnson, fled to a nearby home asking for “sanctuary“. The people in this house decided to call the cops instead. At around 6:15 a.m., officers used a police dog to tackle White and found the coward hiding in the cellar of the home whose owners he had asked for help. He refused to talk to the arresting officers about the incident aside for asking them to “pray for him“. I don’t know if they did or not, but they did take him to the hospital for the injuries he suffered from the ass-kicking he got from Johnson.
He has since been arrested and booked in the Monroe County Jail, charged with murder.
Admittedly, I am not familiar with this band, but I did a little research and found their Myspace page as well as a statement by another band, Off With Their Heads, over at morecowbell.net. They state that Christopher and his wife, Michelle, were good people who had just celebrated their first wedding anniversary. They also reveal that she is financial unable to provide a proper funeral for Christopher. They are asking for all other bands to do as they are doing and set up a donation jar at their shows to help out. I am too famous to go out in public any longer, but if any of you reading this are able to do so, and see this donation jar at any of your local gigs, put a dollar in it or something.

I read about this in one of the local papers this morning. Seems like Brian White was from Warsaw and Christopher was orginally from Mishawaka. Christophers’ mother still lives in Mishawaka and said that she was often concerned about the places that her son would perform. Which is understandable. I am close to his home town, so if I see a jar sitting around, I will drop a few bucks in!!

I betcha White is wishing he would have kept his hands to himself. He got his ass kicked, is in jail for murder and NOW people in jail will know he can’t fight.
He might as well put a welcome sign on his ass.

I’m thinking what kind of house party brings bands from out of state. With both guys the same age makes me wonder if they knew one another at all. I feel really sad for the girl thats ass got grabbed… by a frickin murderess asswipe… Honey please don’t feel responsible what happened is not your fault… Please hold your head and be strong – you know Chris wouldn’t want you to feel your to blame… it is Brainless Brian that is so badly… to blame Not you!!!
pussy can’t fight without blind siding and a knife !!!

Boy, that guy got religion fast. Before he even went to ground he had the word “sanctuary” in place instead of “hide out” and was asking people for prayers. I’ve heard of jailhouse conversions, but this on-the-lam-for-about-five-minutes conversion must set a record.

Reckon he ran through a car wash on the way to his ’sanctuary’? Someone should market that: 2 Minute Baptism.

Just to update, for anyone who may still read this, Brian White was convicted of murder and yesterday was sentenced to 55 years without parole. Yay!
