World's Least Frivolous Catfight Breaks Out in Budapest Courtroom

A vicious fight erupted between two women yesterday at the Regional Court of Appeal in Budapest after a relative of a victim of a defendant being sentenced became outraged at what she saw as excess leniency. The brawl broke out after the court ruled that one of the defendants, Julianna Sz., would receive a jail term of only 12 years instead of 15 for the murder of one Katalin R. in July 2007, leading the victim's sister - Ibolya R. - to lose her cool and start kicking and punching the stuffing out of Sz. right there in the courthouse. You'll understand why after you hear the rest of the story.
According to blikk.hu, Sz. had conspired to steal Katalin R.'s house, so she made friends with her, to the point that she and her boyfried and their young child moved in with the victim. The couple forged documents to make the house appear to be theirs, then strangled Katalin, buried her body in the backyard, built a swimming pool over the grave and had picnics next to it all summer.
No word if Ibolya is facing charges for the incident, though if she is, we sure hope they lock her up for just a few hours - in Katalin's cell.
