‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream' Turned Nightmare Lover Kills His Partner W/ Bare Hands

  Bernardo Almonte 27 killed by his lover, partner

 A BROADWAY dancer has confessed to killing his boyfriend in a chilling Facebook post, writing “I am God. I give life and can take it away.”

Marcus Bellamy, 32, who has danced in productions such as Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark, jumped on Facebook moments after he allegedly killed his boyfriend, Bernardo Almonte, 27.

Marcus Bellamy whose FaceBook page usually contained many verses from the bible seemed to be a man disturbed by something. You would think that a man who had obtained and accomplished certain parts of his dream would be grateful to his god and good fortunes. No, he was not on top of his game but he was doing what he wanted to do all his life according to his writings and it was to dance. 

He had taken care of his body to be desired in the dancing world where every curb and mass of muscle is obtained while practicing and dancing. He was living with his partner a good looking man and also a smart man involves with computers in the IT field. His partner Bernardo Almonte 27, was at that age where one can make things happen with the right partner. Unfortunedly for Bernardo he had chosen the wrong one.  One that was disturbed about his religion, his god and probably his sexuality. I say sexuality because it is usually attached to problems with god and religion and his comments before and after he killed Bernardo signifies to that. I think few will argue that this man Marcus Bellamy was mentally disturbed to some point and having this fight with Bernardo he went all the way this time. He lost it big time. Not only hitting him hard on the head to make him profusely breed but jumping on top of him and biting each of his shoulders while he snuffed the life out of him by strangulating the badly hurt man.

Sometimes the choices we make while picking a partner tells of how the rest of our lives will be. Are we going to be happy, relax or in a perpetual walking of egg shells because either there is no trust or understanding or sadly both.

Such a shame! Here you have two young men but not too young which already should know in their thirties how life is to be lived. The one that paid with his life was Bernardo. What ever he saw in Marcus Bellamy I am sure he never saw this happening, loosing his life over nothing important. If he saw something besides a good body in Marcus he had to be mistaken because at the end he showed his insides and they were either hollow or just cover with cobwebs and as much hay as a Scare Crow. He talked about love and hate being the same but did not understand that love and hate besides both being an emotion they are also opposites and one snuffs out the other. 

  “Forgive me,” he wrote. “I did it for love. I did it because I love you. He told me love and hate are the same emotion.”

“I am God,” he wrote. “I give life and can take it away.”

Police say Almonte was found face down in their Bronx apartment in New York City, bleeding from a blow to the head. Both his shoulders had bite marks. 

After posting to Facebook, Bellamy left the apartment and told a neighbour what he had done. That neighbour called the police who found Bellamy on the footpath with his hands in the air, staring at the sky.

“The way he was standing outside, he looked like he was praying,” Lisa Turner, 51, told New York Daily News.
