QCrimes: Ugly Betty‘s Michael L. Brea Allegedly Decapitates Mother With Sword

Ugly Betty fans may have found Michael Lucas’ appearance on the show kinda crazy, but shit’s now full-blown insane as one of the show’s smaller stars Michael L. Brea stands accused of slicing off his mother’s head with a 3-foot sword. Ugly Betty fans… it gets uglier.
While most people spend the time before Thanksgiving preparing to see one of their family members, Brea spent his time preparing to dismember one of his family. According to the NY Post around 1 AM Brea chased his mother around her apartment chanting “Repent! Repent! Repent!” [and] asking if she believed in Jesus Christ or God while she yelled ‘Help me! Help me!'” But in New York City you hear crazy crap like that all the time, so no one came.

Another neighbor said Brea kept calling for the “architect of the universe,” a term used by Freemasons to refer to a supreme being. A police source later called the murder weapon a three-foot ceremonial Masonic sword.

Another report said that the cops arrived at the “extremely bloody” scene around 2:20 AM, used a taser to subdue the actor, then escorted him to a nearby hospital.
Brea has since been charged with 2nd degree murder and criminal possession of a weapon. Sadly, the samurai sword seems the weapon of choice for quasi-famous psychopaths. Still no word on why Brea attacked his mother though he is currently undergoing psychological evaluation.
In case you’re wondering why we’re reporting on this to begin with: 1) Ugly Betty‘s big with the homos. 2) We used to think Brea was handsome, well, before all this anyway. 3) We report all things queer and this is about as queer a crime as we’ve heard of in a while. We’ll report more on this story as it develops.
