90-year-old assault victim Bob Strait released from hospital

The surviving victim from last weeks brutal home invasion and beating is out of the hospital.

90-year-old Bob Strait is home with family members.

He suffered serious injuries during the incident, but his wife Nancy died.

Family members say Bob Strait is recovering physically, but emotionally his wounds are deep and he says he never wants to go back to the home he and his wife shared for more than 40 years.

"When I was holding his hand you could tell he was shaking on the inside, he was scared and when we asked him yesterday if he was ready to go home, he thought he was going home," said Strait's daughter, Lanora.

The couple was ambushed and robbed last week in their north Tulsa home.

Police have one suspect in custody, 21 year old Tyrone Woodfork, he's facing 1st degree murder charges among others.

The result of the attack left Bob Strait with a broken jaw, internal bleeding and bb gun wounds. His wife Nancy didn't survive her injuries.

"After he found out she was gone, we brought her in to him, and turned her to where he couldn't see her bad side and he held her hand for quite awhile and all he could say was I loved that old woman, I loved that old woman for so long," said Lanora.

The couple had been married for more than 65 years and Lanora doesn't know if her dad will be able to survive much longer without his soul mate.

"Now that she's gone, I don't know, I don't expect much, I hope for it but I don't expect it," said Lanora.

At this point police are still investigating, they say there could be more suspects still on the loose.

Family members are hopeful they will be caught, so something like this doesn't happen to anyone else.

"No not like this, no one should take your parents away or anybody away from you and one thing I've learned you want to let the people that you love, know that you love them, because you don't know if you are going to see them again tomorrow," said Lanora.

The memorial service for Nancy strait will be Friday at 12:30 at Floral Haven. There will be a viewing Thursday at noon.

Anyone with information about other possible suspects in this case can call Crime Stoppers at (918) 596-COPS.

“Where are the rallies? Where is the protest? Where is President Obama speaking out about the black on white crimes that are committed?”

The Demoncrats and the media (But that is redundant isn't it?) are grearing up for major race riots this Summer if their choice looks like it will loose.

Did the attack on this white elderly couple and the murder of the women have “racist” components and an attack on women MSLSD? Will the DOJ investigate? won't hold my breath!

This is also a very good article.

 

Even though this attack won't make national news because it was a black on white crime, it did get very good coverage in Great Britain.

Full title: Couple met and married within a month and stayed together for 65 years... only to be parted after home invader beat wife to death

An 85-year-old woman was sexually assaulted and battered to death by a home invader who also shot her 90-year-old husband in the face with a BB gun. Nancy and Bob Strait, who had celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary in December, were discovered by their daughter at their home in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Both the pensioners were rushed to hospital where Mrs Strait, who was nearly blind, died from her injuries.

Mr Strait, who served in the 101st Airborne Division in World War II, suffered a broken jaw, broken ribs and severe bleeding. He is in a serious condition in hospital. Police have arrested 20-year-old Tyrone Dale David Woodfork in connection with the case.

The home invaders made off with their Dodge Neon, a television and $200. Woodfork was later found hiding in a nearby house after a witness spotted the stolen vehicle being driven down the road.

Now Now Now That would be racist.

Let's keep it in the race.

How about a Winnie Mandela necklace?

That will keep it in the race and it wouldn't be racist since we heard when Winnie was doing the necklacing, it was part of their culture.

Sometimes it's good being PC.

If Obama had a son he’d look like Tyrone.

My stepfather was 91 and my mother was 85 when they died two years ago. They had lived in Tulsa - just a mile away from where the Straits lived.

I can’t explain the hurt and anger I feel knowing this happened.

Poor widdle hate-filled thug. I wonder who filled that innocent little black boy with so much hate? Was he a Rush listener since diapers? Didn’t he grow up to know Al Sharpton is a ‘minister’? Doesn’t he know America has a halfrican drug addled commie fraud criminal as our president? What more does this sad figure of a person want????? ... Ah, I know, he wants Rush Limbaugh off the airwaves. That’ll do it for him and he will magically turn into a peaceful, loving human being, against ALL his upbringing.

[Deo volente]

A search of Google News reveals 48 stories about the Strait’s, and 10,727 stories about Trayvon Martin.

As I said....

“Yes, I know that I put this little local story in Headline Front Page News. And it may well get bumped to chat...”

I’m sure I’ll be seeing the Trayvon Martin stories moved to chat in 5, 4, 3.....

“Where are the rallies? Where is the protest? Where is President Obama speaking out about the black on white crimes that are committed?

And lets not overlook the young white boy in Kansas City that was chased down by a black mob and set on fire recently.”

All of that is different!/s

[gundog]

To bad the TODAY Show couldn't have bumped this morning's piece on the ghost-writing of celebrity cookbooks to give this case some airtime.

if obamma had a grandmother, she’d look like
Mrs. Strait...oh wait...

It is absolutely essential that WE ALL take the time to forward any story like this which is being spiked by the MSM because it does not fit their narrative.

It only takes a few minutes to carpet bomb your e-mail list of like minded individuals or maybe even those sitting on the fence like “moderates”

Sometimes it is just fun to toss this in the face of a died in the wool liberal.

Right now I see no other way to combat the daily barrage of communist slanted reporting by our MSM. We have to start doing their job.

[Realman30]

This tragic story was one and done for the news media. Never again will this gentlemen ‘trend’ on Yahoo.
