A Blue Origin employee married to a prominent trans author and journalist has been accused of killing her elderly father with an ice axe on Election Night.
Corey Burke, 33, allegedly struck, stabbed and strangled her father, 67-year-old Timothy Burke, in a fatal attack at her $800,000 Seattle home on November 5.
Burke, a training manager at Jeff Bezos‘ rockets and spacecraft company, confessed to killing her father after he refused to turn off the lights, according to charging documents seen by DailyMail.com.
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.’
Investigators say Burke came out of the Rainier Valley home with a bloody face and appeared to be having a mental health crisis.
Burke had apparently smashed several windows and later told police she did so in an ‘act of liberation’ after she killed her father. She had reportedly been ‘clapping inside her home’ when cops arrived.
The police report also includes her claims that she’d been ‘reborn’ on her 33rd birthday last month.
………Burke added that she had a strained relationship with her father and said she had been ‘overwhelmed’ on election day.
And surprise, she’s married to a guy who thinks he’s a female.
Liberalism is a mental disease.
