Improper usage of the term.  






"Electrocution" denotes death - specifically stoppage of the heart.







eta: not correcting OP - Cajun journalist has it wrong.

About 15 years ago in the next town called Goffstown, some guy went into the old county nursing home to steal cooper wire.

He had been stealing the wire for a while until he reached the breaker box and was kiled when trying to remove the live three phase wire. The power was still on in the building because it was being used for storage by the county.

His family put out a missing person report then told the police that he might be at the nursing home. Thats how he was found dead at the power box..

Later the Family filed a suit against the County, State, and Power company for having the power on in the building..

He had potential.   He was going to be inducted into the Thief's Hall of Fame, but he wasn't sufficiently up on current events, and he lacked the capacity to resist his negative impulses.

I spoke at length to a railroad bull, it is not uncommon with the copper stealers to get smooshed by a train or get zapped when they are digging in the rail bed.

Otherwise he was a well grounded individual.

Well, at least when he wasn't wired on meth, he had a short fuse when he was.
