Sounds like good news. Hate he was injured. Loved her comment at the end.

There’s a nice picture of Lynne with the article, if someone wants to post it (not very good at that stuff).
Still a very pretty lady.

Glad they're OK.

Must have been a Glock .35. Never heard of it until now.

Lynne Russell had a concealed carry permit when she lived in Atlanta and spoke openly about the fact that she carried a handgun. If I’m not mistaken, she was also a volunteer deputy with the Fulton County Sheriff’s Department.

So you walk out of your motel 6 room with your husband in the shower and guns on the table?

Were you driving a fancy car parked right in front of your room too?

This reads like what you should not do if you are ex CNN and ex special forces or whatever.

Staying at a motel with a lobby rather than rooms that open to the outside might be safer. There are no guarantees. Ever.

She was a volunteer Sherriff’s deputy in Atlanta so she should know how to handle a pistol.

And she is still hot.

And to the snarks on a previous thread who kept beating the “more time at the range” drum, let’s make sure next time they’re at the range they strip naked, have someone hose them down with their gun across the room and an armed perp shooting at them and threatening their wife. The perp’s dead, dumbasses...

He’s a hero and Lynne is still hot as hell. Now if we’d only known she’d find bald guys attractive...

Any news on who the perp was?

[Theodore R.]

I stayed one Sunday night at a Motel 6 in Albuquerque in 1994; it looked unsafe too back then. I don’t know if this was the same hotel, but it was fairly close to Sandia Peak.

The answer to everyone’s early question is, DeCaro had a pocket 9mm with which he returned fire at the perp.

WTFIIWNM?

[CedarDave]

No word yet on who the perp was.
