Beulah Man Gets 30 Years For Murdering Half Brother

January 10, 2013

A Beulah man was sentenced Wednesday to 30 years in prison for murder.

Michael Daly, 43, shot his 19-year old half brother Thomas Jurkowich in 2009 at the family’s home because Jurkowich would not turn down the volume on a television set.

Daly will be required to serve at least 25 years of the sentence before he is eligible for release.

    If you would have known Thomas like I did there’s more to this story than this. Show some respect for the deceased.

    Thomas wasn’t one for arguments, he didn’t like to argue, and avoided them as much as he could. His brother on the other hand was quite the opposite and pretty often very unstable.

    If I had been Mr Jurkowich, I would have done as they do in the old country and turned the volume down.

    They would have given him 60 years if it would have been his blood brother…

    Obviously it had to do with more than turning down the tv. That my have been a catalyst for the over re-action, but there has to be more to this than what was reported.

    People need to learn to control their temper! If it had been left up to me, he’d do at least 50 years.
