Well if he was such a pig that he beat her to death, she probably had a lot to grumble about. That behavior doesn't come from nowhere. Rest in peace Mrs Murayama.

Geez... Everyone grumbles from time to time. If it's so bad LEAVE! At least then you'll be away from the source.

Every person has their breaking point & after a few decades of her verbal abuse, murder was the result.
