We are taught to try to get control of the situation rather than just blowing away when we see something... IF the lover tried to attack him or something thats a different story...
I guess the boyfriend now fully understands the father’s views on pre-marital sex...
You opine: “We are taught to try to get control of the situation rather than just blowing away when we see something... IF the lover tried to attack him or something thats a different story...”
try reading the story? Father discovers a stranger crouching in the bedroom of his daughter in the dark of night.- what would YOU do, invite him for a beer conference?
in story: “ stranger crouching in the corner.
A struggle ensued and Jordan shot Carrion from a revolver.”
Lesson = if you don’t want to chance a bullet in the head from a father protecting him daughter and his home in the dark of night - don’t be hiding in the daughter’s bedroom. His momma forget to teach him that?
- and just HOW did he get there? Front door? Window?
He WAS an INTRUDER.
It says in the article that “a struggle ensued”.
Truthfully, if the father sticks by his story, it’s going to be very hard to get a conviction.
1) Father hears noise in daughters room, arms himself (because he knows daughter is not in room?)
2) Sees person crouching in room, thinks intruder. Calls the man out, man comes out in a hurry and maybe closes with father, and bang! shot in the head.
3) When he was charged, the father says he “was in fear for his life”.
That’s all she wrote.
Importantly, according to witness testimony, the daughter was nearby, if not in the room. However, she might have told her father that “nobody” was in her room. And that lie would affirm her father’s not guilty.
true.... i find the entire situation ridiculous... he was 32, she is 20... they are adults... why in the world was he in her room secretly? why couldn’t they meet at his place? or does he too live with his parents? why didn’t he just get a room for the two of them for the night? doesn’t her bedroom door have a lock? why didn’t she lock it? or did she open the door for her father? a 32-year old crouching in a corner is ridiculous...
