An acquaintance of mine shot his wife and her boyfriend -

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - An acquaintance of mine shot his wife and her boyfriend - (Page 1 of 3)

Posted: 4/6/2006 1:21:25 PM EDT

It happened about a month ago in Saint Louis, but I just found out about it. He's a good guy, but he lost control when he surprised the two of them. He left, came back armed, and shot them through a window. Grazed his wife's hip and hit the guy's thigh. Then he went in and shot him in the balls

His lawyer is guestimating that he'll only get about six years.

Maybe it was worth it...

Several years ago another Corpsman in my brother's unit in St. Louis, stuck his child with a needle from an AID patient to get back at his wife.

Sorry for the highjack back on topic.

He's a painter, and I met him when he was working on my hunting buddie's house in Glendale. I don't know where he lives or where this happened, though. I tried to Google it and didn't come up with anything.

Rodent, I really can't imagine you giving a shit about the fate of some painter.

I only know him casually, but he's a friend of a friend, and he struck me as a decent sort.

This is another good illustration on why one should CCW all the time. Leaving and coming back takes the "heat of passion" defense out of the picture.

Isn't is Texas that basically gives you one free shot if you catch your spouse in bed with another?

I'm just sorry he's going to go to jail because of some slut who couldn't keep her legs together. Cheaters SUCK. (no pun intended)

my grandfather caught my grandmother(like in the 50's ) in bed with another guy, he shot him and he died, my grandfather wasnt convicted because of emotional distress. I walked in and found my soon to be wife in bed with another guy, I almost shot them while they slept but I had enouph self control to do the right thing

First off, cheating is by far a "bannable offense"

But the laws are not written as to "shoot his balls off"!
ofrKill my wife.
Aint no woman worth going to jail over ( like that anyways)

Years back I had a co-worker named Rod. One day was wasn't feeling well and went home to find a neighbor boning his wife. Neither survived.

A few months of legal wrangling and he was a free man with no time served.

Posted: 4/6/2006 2:42:41 PM EDT

[#25]

He wasn't a very good shot, now was he?

And 6 years? How long was he married to the cheating bitch? Deduct that from his sentence, and I think justice will be done.

Society is TOO DAMN LENIENT on cheaters and immoral people. Don't want to keep it in your pants (men) or keep your legs closed (women)? Then it's simple: DON'T GET MARRIED.

it would suck if the other guy didn't know that he was boning a married woman. in this case, i think it would be pretty obvious if you're in HER room.

Better than my buddy. He shot and killed his wife's boyfriend. Did not shoot her. Went home and shot himself.
I wish he had called me. It made his mother lose her sanity. His ex didn't seem to give a shit. He should have shot her too.

I've heard of this defense in Tx since I was a kid. I don't know if it's true, but if I was on a jury I wouldn't vote to convict a person if they walked in on their spouse in that situation. and went all ninja on their slick asses in a fit of rage due to betrayal.

Just got word: He's locked up in the state looney bin at Delmar, and not getting a lot of quality REM sleep, what with all the droolers and screamers.

Beats me. My buddy out there is being weird about talking about it on a cell phone, hopefully I'll get more of the colorful, fascinating details later.
