Why do people say this stuff in autobiographies and assume nothing will happen? Should have just kept his gob shut.

Eggheads star CJ de Mooi has been arrested on suspicion of murder under a European arrest warrant for an alleged killing more than 20 years ago.

De Mooi was detained under his real name Joseph Connagh at Heathrow Airport on Wednesday, Scotland Yard said.

He is wanted over an alleged killing in the Netherlands and will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Thursday.

De Mooi, a former president of the English Chess Federation, revealed in his autobiography that he may have killed a man while he lived on the streets two decades ago.

The 46-year-old, who lives in Monmouthshire, said he punched a man who approached him with a knife and then threw him into a canal in Amsterdam in 1988.

"He caught me on the wrong day and I just snapped"

He punched someone and threw them in a canal and walked off i think?

Come on, hand on heart, who among us can honestly say they haven't done the same.

This. When I read his autobiography I was thinking exactly that, but I guess CJ's ego wouldn't let him leave it out, even if his editor/publisher should have intervened.
