Dear Deputies,
The lesson here is that one should change one’s shirt at least every other day.
Call it what it was, negligent gun handling. Combined with poor hygiene.
Yeah, sounds like deer camp to me. I've come home with cuts and burns I never realized I had until I got back home and took a shower.
Does this "medicine" come in a big bottle with the words "Jim Beam" on it?
Then the police try to build a case - either against a perp or against YOU.
So if you just had an innocent run in with a bullet like this guy, the police will be all over you like a bug, but you are not under any obligation to talk to them. My policy is not to talk to them unless it is in my best interest or the best interest of innocent people who are experiencing injustice.
The police rarely improve a situation.
The subject in this story is guilty of illegal discharge of a firearm, and if he talked enough, most police departments would use that to charge him. Looks like this department did not.
I also remember reading about that, recall it from Reader’s Digest, as do posters at this link:

However, since it came from Reader’s Digest, and I’ve been hearing about all the urban legends RD spawned over the years (Remember Yellow Ribbon?), and especially BJ Clinton and his wife moving in next door to RD, and now trust Reader’s Digest less than I trust the Hussein Heads fawning over their god at Snopes.
Even when I go hunting (for any number of days) I take changes of skivvies, jeans, and shirts.
May not be able to bucket wash every day, but I find that even after one day of humpin the hills or running across the desert after the little gray birds, I stink.
I figure that if the flies and mosquitos don’t want to have anything to do with me, my wife would probably take a flame thrower to me when I got home.
The guy is an idiot for reporting it. A through-and-through wound, that he didn’t feel happen, took three days to discover and was barely bleeding. Put a freaking bandaid on it and never tell anyone how stupid you are. lol
Good thing he wasn’t holding a .45. Would have blown is arm off..
Well, I have to admit that I misplace things myself from time to time.

That’s what I was thinking. Three days with no shower? Eww! I could not go 1 day without a shower.
Three days later sobriety occurred and a WTF moment ensued.
Should have told them twas a slip of the nail gun accident, and then stick to the story. :-)
