CA - Nicholson gets life for killing ex-wife, Slam Poet
News in Poetry Miami Herald - FL,USA
Kevin Nicholson, convicted of murdering his wife, a Hollywood spoken-word poet, was sentenced to life in prison without parole Friday.

Lorie Nicholson-Tennant's words filled a Broward courtroom Friday while her ex-husband, Kevin Nicholson, sat awaiting a mandatory life sentence for her murder.

Reading from a poem written by Nicholson-Tennant, a spoken-word poet known as Elle, wrote during the divorce, prosecutor Deborah Zimet seized on the hopeful words of escaping an unhappy love.

'Rebuilding my sanity Rebuilding the `happy me' Today, I thee wed, me,'' she read.

Nicholson-Tennant, 25, returned to her Hollywood home late on the night of August 25, 2004, after a poetry reading. A few hours later, her mother found her stabbed and her throat slit. The window above her bed was shattered, a bloody handprint left on the sill. www.miami.com/mld/miam...310153.htm
