A local South Carolina newspaper added insult to injury when it committed an apostrophe catastrophe when reporting on a murder-suicide. See the line about the "womans friend" in the screenshot below.
Thanks to another Becky for sending this one in.

Murder-suicides are indeed tragic. But I don't know anything about "muder-suicide," which the title of your post mentions, so I can't comment on whether such a thing is tragic.
Oh, man, how embarrassing.... At least this blog isn't called "Spelling Catastrophes."
You have no idea how many times I, as a copyeditor with 25 years' experience, revise my own blog posts because of errors I've caught—after the posts are already up for the world to see! ;-)
