GUILTY
Aspiring pastor Matthew Phelps' appearance sure has changed since he was arrested for stabbing his wife Lauren 123 times last year.

His story about not realizing or remembering killing his wife because he was hopped up on cough medicine wasn't selling.
So, in exchange for prosecutors taking the death penalty off the table, Phelps pleaded guilty to Lauren's murder earlier this month.
He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Good.
His motives: he didn't like Lauren laying down rules over his excessive spending, he was cheating on his wife and she threatened to leave him, he was obsessed with American Psycho, and (according to him) drinking and drugs took him to a dark place.
Phelps said he was sorry at his sentencing hearing. Lauren's dad essentially responded with a big 'fuck you shit bag' (my paraphrase).
