A 26 year old beats a 58 year old man, his 61 year old wife, and their son in a fit of rage. The rage occurs over lice infection. The 58 year old man survives, the wife and son are killed.
The 26 year old is a karate expert.
I would like to point out that the intent of the martial arts is to learn how to control one's emotional outbursts, not inflame them further and then do something like this.
The idea is to gain a little self knowledge and then use that as a doorway into personal growth. In this case, the opposite occurred. Instead of growth, there was an increase in arrogance, ignorance, and aggression. Instead of gaining a little self knowledge, there was a shrinking, clouding, and dulling of intelligence.
Many people involve themselves in the martial arts in order to become more violent. No one will refuse to teach these people because once again the teaching occurs in exchange for money. So in one way one could potentially blame the teacher for accepting such an unpromising and abusive student.

"He literally beat them to death with his hands and feet.....The family were poor and drank a lot. He blamed them for infecting his wife and the entire corridor with lice."
The 58-year-old husband of the dead woman was also badly beaten, but survived.

Putin is a Black belt. I'm a black belt and taught for yrs and was a Kick Boxer as well. I never took a dime. I turned away those I felt were violent and just wanted to sharpen their weapons. I taught Tai Chi for many yrs as well. Tai Chi tends to calm people down. Tae Kwon Do and Karate tend to raise their blood pressure. In any event your right teachers of these arts have a responsibility to the community to look closely @ whom their training. Unfortunately, many do it just for the cash and this kind of crap is the result.
Many of the new varients of combat entertainment sport can't help but contribute to this type of thing. They are filling areas to watch these contests. I was watching a reality show where a trainer was showing a contestent how to punch a guy out while sitting on top of his chest...
