Boy nearly strangles sister over Bioshock, Jack Thompson responds harshly

Videogames are often criticised for negatively influencing the behaviour of their players, and the latest report from KCTV, telling the story of a Kansas teenager who nearly strangled his little sister after she interrupted him while he was playing 2K Games' Xbox 360 masterpiece, Bioshock, isn't going to help the cause.

Violent videogame-hating attorney Jack Thompson has since released an ominous statement in which he says that "Justice will be served to the bastards that caused this crime." (BioShock, Culture, PC, Xbox 360)

Update The story has now been confirmed by Destructoid's Joe Burling to be completely false.
