When Jocks Attack: Power Corrupts - A Bizarre Story of Murder for Hire

George Bernard Shaw once said that it’s not really power that
corrupts people. It’s the other way around. Well, he said it
fancier than that, but that was the gist. We all want power, to
some degree. Physical strength, sexual prowess, political sway.
Most of us don’t let it control our lives, eat away at our humanity
to the point where it’s all we care about. But for some of us,
power is kinda like steroids. It makes us big and strong, but it’s
addictive and the side effects can be murder.
