Those Hot Tempered Iranians

  First off, let me say that this one is not about any of the crap that is going on in and with Iran.

   This one is about an Iranian who just happens to live in the United States and what he did to his family. the man needed some anger management counseling, I think.

A 55-year-old refugee from Iran beat his wife, sister-in-law and mother-in-law to death with a three-pound hammer one by one after they questioned his masculinity, prosecutors said Monday.

" 'I do the job,' " Daryoush Ebrahimi told police who arrived at the murder scene, according to Assistant Cook County State's Attorney Sanju Oommen. "He said the women had disrespected him and said that he was not a man."

He was beating himself on the head with the hammer when police arrived to find the three dead bodies, police said.

Investigators are still seeking a precise motive in the slaying of Ebrahimi's 44-year-old wife, Karmin Koshabeh, and her sister, Karolin Khooshabeh, 40, in the couples' second-floor apartment, and the death of his mother-in-law, Ileshvah Eyvazimooshabad, 60, in her apartment across the street -- beyond what authorities called "a recurring theme of disrespect."

All three victims were bludgeoned and stabbed.

Ebrahimi is Assyrian, but came here on refugee status from Iran Nov. 29, said Commander David Sobczyk. He graduated from college in Iran and was an engineer who owned his own company before coming to this country, his lawyer said. He was to start a job Monday as a mechanical engineer in northwest Indiana.

He has four children -- 31, 28, 26 and 17.
