New details have emerged concerning a Seattle woman’s suspected murder of her father on Election Night, including a clearer picture of how the killing unfolded and revelations about the woman and her prominent transgender author partner.
According to The Daily Mail, Corey Burke, 33, who police claim killed her 67-year-old father Timothy Burke with an ice ax in their $800,000 home last Tuesday after a disagreement over house lights, was a “power lesbian” who worked as a training program manager for Jeff Bezos’ space exploration company Blue Origin.
The Mail has more grisly details behind the murder, to which Burke reportedly confessed:
After emerging from the house with blood ‘dripping’ down her face, she confessed to police that she ‘freaked out,’ claiming there was ‘something important about Election Day.’
Burke reportedly told detectives that ‘she knew that she could not convince her father to keep the lights off’, so went upstairs and retrieved the murder weapon.
She then tripped her father and strangled him before attacking him with the ice axe.
Burke then bit him and hit him several times in the head and side with the blunt and sharp ends of the ice axe, cops say. His body was found in the basement.
Burke claimed she knew the killing ‘needed to happen today,’ according to a police report.
She allegedly told police she had to bite her father while choking him because ‘he was too strong.’ Burke added that she felt better once her father ‘went limp.’
Burke also told police that as her father labored to breathe after the attack, ‘the defendant sat next to him until he stopped breathing.’
The Mail reports the day after the murder Burke whispered, “I killed him,” to an officer and that she’d described killing her father “was really hard, really fu****g hard,” adding “there were points where she felt she wasn’t going to be able to.”
She also mentioned something about wanting to help people “change their attachment to their parents.”
The Mail notes Burke’s “wife, Samantha Leigh Allen is an editor at Conde Nast’s transgender news website Them.” Allen also authored, Real Queer America: LGBT Stories from Red States, and M to (WT)F: Twenty-Six of the Funniest Moments from My Transgender Journey.
According to Allen’s website, she has been platformed by MSNBC’s Morning Joe, and also worked “covering LGBTQ stories as a senior reporter for The Daily Beast.”
Additionally, Allen’s “full list of bylines includes The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Out, CNN, and more.”
Burke was arrested at the Harborview Medical Center and was booked on charges of second-degree murder.
Don’t expect mainstream news networks to report on the Trump Derangement-syndrome induced killing, or the woman’s close ties to the legacy media and the woke agenda anytime soon.
