Santhosh Paul Revisited

Longtime readers of my blog might remember this post I wrote last January about an Indian-American man named Santhosh Paul who tried to hire a hitman to kill his wife Tina Paul.

Ever since I added a sitemeter to my blog several weeks ago, I have noticed that I have been getting a lot of hits from people who search for "Santhosh Paul" in Google. So, a short while ago, for the sake of curiosity, I decided to search on Newsday.com and sure enough there were two articles that appeared today.

Newsday reports that Santhosh Paul pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy and three counts of criminal facilitation. He was sentenced to 5 to 15 years in prison. In a related article, Tina Paul was able to get the restraining order lifted so that she can visit her husband in jail.

My favorite line from the second article was when Newsday reporter Ann Givens wrote, "The North Bellmore couple's marriage was strained last year when Santhosh was arrested for trying to hire a man to stab Tina to death." (Italics mine.)

Strained? STRAINED? A spouse gets caught cheating. A couple falls on hard times financially and has trouble paying the bills. Those are the kinds of things that put a strain on a marriage. Trying to hire someone to kill your wife? Somehow the word "strained" just doesn't seem to do justice to it.

It will be interesting to see what happens with Santhosh and Tina Paul after he gets out of prison, which will probably be within five to ten years. I just hope they don't have anymore children once they are reunited again. A husband who tries to have his wife murdered and a wife too stupid to leave that husband simply should not be allowed to breed.

It's just baffling why women will defend and even go back to their abusive and threatening husbands. I cannot even begin to feel sorry for them. Yes, I do hope they have no more children, but unfortunately, the most stupid people on the planet do most of the breeding.

Interestingly, when you google Santhosh Paul, my blog is in the top 5 or 6 results, which explains why I am getting so much traffic from people googling this guy's name.

Ah, welcome to my world. I deal with women like that all the time as a social worker.

you are very ignorant. you'll be accountable for every word you wrote on your blog. santhosh, whoever he is will have to be accountable to the courts, his wife, family and God for what he did...we still have not heard the reasoning behind it...money, greed? or there could be more...but we will never know..so don't be ignorant in your conclusions

Tommykey said...

And how exactly am I ignorant John Abraham? What specifically did I write that you have a problem with? I certainly did not draw any conclusions, merely offered my satirical take on the case.

My posts were not concerned with Santhosh Paul's motivations for wanting to kill his wife, though I would be interested to know what they were. I simply find it bizarre and sad that a woman will stay loyal to a man who was videotaped discussing with the undercover police officer how he wanted to kill her.

I think none has to talk anymore about it, as nobody is any better than anyone, and we will wait and see how long Mr. Tmmy going to be "Happily married"It sounds like some of u r so pure and loyal to ur spouces and dont or havent done anything wrong at all..

Tommykey said...

Once again, because it seems that there are some people who are so sensitive over this case, almost everyone's marriage undergoes strain at some time or other.

But the vast majority of us do not try to have our spouses killed! Santhosh Paul was videotaped speaking to an undercover cop for several hours, giving the cop specific information about the best locations and times to kill Tina Paul, how he wanted it done, and oh yeah, he wanted her dead before the holidays!

Either you are an Indian-American, a Pentecostalist, or both Mr. Anonymous. If you can't handle what people in the blogosphere have to say about Santhosh and Tina Paul, then don't fucking read about it you pathetic shit!

strained - a word santhosh wanted to exercise on his wife's neck. reading the articles in newsday forums, you would believe world is full of sinners waiting for emancipation and santhosh just happens to be one of them. well, not quite.
these pentacostals are the hypocrite, money-mongering sinners of the first order. i know many of these who do unspeakable things under God's name. they are the worst of the kind i have ever seen. Incest, extramarital affairs, money-laundering, fraud, murder all in the name of God. most of them sleep around like there is no tomorrow and then they have the audacity to call each other Brother, Sister. in my world, a brother does not sleep with his sister, only in Pentacostal World.

I think it's stupid that he only got 5 years in prison. I heard that he preached in his church the sunday before he got arrested. I heard his audience alomost cried believing in his faith and u knw all the pentecostal bullshit. it should be interesting after he get out of prison. i am sure there will be a big pentecostal show about how he changed in prison and am sure he'll be preaching again. i can't wait.

Tina Paul is a pentecoastal christian and no matter what her husband does she will follow what the Bible says. 'till death do us part' was not just a stupid little sentence to get on with life it was a commitment and Tina knows that she has to stay faithful. Tina is not stupid and her choice to stay with her husband was not one taken from a well thought out decision, it was one that was taken out of love and hope. She knows that Gode her father will be with her in all that comes and those of you that are calling her stupid are the actual stupid ones. May God Bless you Tina!

STHOTHRAMMMM!!!!! So this is what it's like to "be saved"???? This is what the Indian American Pentecostal movement is all about. TO BE FAKE!! BUNCH OF LIARS!! PATHETIC! Now they are saying it's a "setup" & that he never did this. YEAH OK!!!! GO DIP YOURSELVES IN THE POOL AGAIN & SPEAK IN FAKE TONGUES!! YOU WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. STHOOOOOOTHRAM!!!!

This is not a matter of being "ignorant" or being "wise." This is a case of terrible greed. This man (I was told) is a Pentecostal man (I do not term his as a Pentecostal believer). There could be people out there who still think "he is born again." I do not accept it; no, not even for a moment. My Bible says, "He that hates his brother is a murderer and we know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him." Then how could he be still a born again person.

It is a shame for Christianity. He was a Sunday School official.

All of you are ignorant except Tommy. Tommy has a point. I am Pentecostal myself and I can say that things like this do happen, unfortunately among our people. But only those people who aren't following God would do these things. God Bless you Tommy.

They are heavily into religion/church...that vonvimced her the devil corrupted him.. seriously sick..I know her personally..

The man is out and he probably got deported to India. By the way his wife Tina and her Sister-in Law is going to India to visit the would be killer. All this seems so suspicious. Why did his wife show so much sympathy to her own killer?

So the meeting of the family took place. Hit-man hubby hugged his wife and they buried their differences. Mom and dad, sister, son all were there enjoying some good time at Lulu Mall in Cochin, India.

Tommykey said...

Thanks for the update. I can't believe how many years have passed since I posted about this!

Is there a documentary on him and where can we find it

Anonymous said...

They were never arranged to be married. They were secretly "dating" since high school. But thats a sin in their church. So i hear he got deported to India, at least hitmen are cheaper there.....i think for like 10,000 rupees he could get it done, which= 100 US Dollars. Enjoy!
