Also, it oughta be national building code that the shared wall in duplexes must be 3 foot thick solid concrete.
Ain’t the first time this happened.
I think it was J.W. Harden who shot a guy through the wall of a hotel room because of a guy snoring.
He jumped out the window into a wagon after he figured out that J.B. Hickock was on the way to investigate.
He shot a man just for snoring!
Late last night
I slew my wife
and laid her
‘neath the flooring
I was loth to do her so
but I had to
stop her snoring
I developed a sleep disorder after the stress of having to sleep next to a snorer. I eventually had to wait until he left for work at 6:00 a.m. to go to sleep then when we were finally able to buy a home where I could have a separate bedroom, and he got diagnosed with sleep apnea given a CPAP, I still had my days and nights mixed up for years and he wondered why lol. I have PTSD to this day and cannot sleep alongside another human being. I fully understand the man’s frustration. But I would have at least tried white noise or getting a pull out couch bed before resorting to this confrontation. Maybe the guy did we don’t know.
“Involuntary manslaughter is the unintended killing of a person while committing a crime, or acting in a reckless or negligent manner. This type of homicide is committed without malice or intent, even accidentally, and is considered a less serious crime than murder. “
So how did this crime fit this definition?
I tell my wife that my snoring protects her from wild animals and tout my success rate. I don’t think she’s buying it though.
You move into a place with a shared wall and noise is a given.
That's abject ignorance right there.
Admit it.
In my case, I spent $25 (based upon reviews); worst $$ I've ever spent and STILL suffering... (agreed on walls, however, though I will NEVER live in the city ever again)
This is a dramatic example of how sleep apnea can shorten your lifespan.
It’s questionable if the killer was in the right. Did he kill the man while he was attempting to enter the house through the window? If so, would that be self-defense?
Also, as poorly as the neighbor was sleeping, couldn’t he have moved to another room? Was it a one room place?
The snorer almost certainly has sleep apnea.
I had it for years & finally was able to get a c-pap to work. I was waking up dozens of times an hour. I also was up physically every 2 hours. I would fall asleep at my desk, at street lights while driving & watching TV. I was afraid to drive any long distances. It was a terrible affliction.
Now I sleep 6-8 hours straight. I am like a new man.
