Man Shot Dead After Refusing His Turn in Russian Roulette

Two illegal immigrants charged with murder in roulette shooting

A group of men were drinking and playing Russian roulette at a party in Delaware last weekend. As if out of a scene from The Deer Hunter, when one of the men refused his turn, another took the gun, pointed it at the man’s head and pulled the trigger.

A bullet was in the chamber for that round of the "game." The man was shot dead.

Wilmington police say two illegal immigrants have been charged with murder in the shooting death of Juan Tomas Chaves Robles, 30, of Mexico, during that game of Russian roulette.

Police said Wednesday that 31-year-old Antonio Vieyra was charged with second-degree murder, and 28-year-old Cecilio Mendez-Ballesteros was charged with first-degree murder. Both men also were charged with possession of a deadly weapon during a felony.

Master Sgt. Steven Barnes says the men had been drinking with others Saturday at a house on the 1100 block of West Third Street – the house where the alleged shooter, Mendez-Ballesteros, was living.

The victim, Robles, had been at the home of the party since Friday, Barnes told The News Journal.

Perhaps he didn’t want to play with the semi-auto they were using.

So, maybe the moral of the story is: “Leave if suicidal idiots are drinking and playing Russian roulette with a loaded gun.”

Never play Russian Roulette with a semi-auto.

He was an illegal alien living in Philly. Something tells me that being dead won’t stop him from voting.

Okay, what’s the problem? You know the rules when you sit down to play. If you can’t play by the rules, don’t get in the game.

Let me get this straight.
The two charged were called illegal ...
The ‘victim’ was from Mexico.
Was he also illegal?
One of the charges was using a weapon during a felony.
How can that be?
Without the weapon there wouldn’t have been a felony?
Well they are now the problem of-and guests of-the taxpayers of Delaware...(and, of course, the rest of us)..

And why do we believe they were playing Russian Roulette, or that the game wasn’t rigged, and that they weren’t just planning to kill this guy?
