Kerry Sheron, the 69-year-old owner of the ‘Trump house’ in Southern California, has died after being brutally beaten by a Navy veteran.

Sheron, an Army veteran, was violently assaulted by 32-year-old Thomas Caleb Butler in an unprovoked attack on May 20 outside of Sheron’s home.

Kerry Sheron decorated his Escondido home with Trump banners and American flags.

The Trump-supporting Army veteran died Sunday night just days after he was hospitalized in critical condition.

Butler was previously charged with attempted murder, elder abuse, making criminal threats and battery. His charges will be upgraded after Sheron died from his injuries.

Deputy District Attorney Ross Garcia said Sheron was violently attacked by Butler.

“It was a single punch to the jaw,” Ross Garcia said, NBC San Diego. “The victim then falls to the floor, and there are subsequent hits to the victim’s head area.”

The New York Post reported:

The owner of a heavily decorated pro-Trump home in Southern California has died days after he was beaten to a pulp allegedly by a Navy veteran.

Kerry Sheron, a 69-year-old Army veteran known locally for covering his residence with MAGA banners and American flags, died Sunday night after nearly a week hospitalized in critical condition.

The attack happened May 20 outside Sheron’s home in Escondido, police said.

Prosecutors allege 32-year-old Thomas Caleb Butler attacked Sheron in what officials described as an unprovoked assault.

Butler, who has been described in local reports as a Navy veteran, has pleaded not guilty to charges including attempted murder, elder abuse, criminal threats and battery.

In Cakifornia, it is a life sentence. Should be a death penalty, but it is California.

California does have the death penalty but greasy refuses to sign death warrants so yeah, death penalty there is basically a life sentence and the taxpayer has to foot the bill until the inmate croaks.

Last time I checked California had over 700 on death row.

In comparison Florida has somewhere around 300.

Is it me or is this becoming more common? People eventually take matters into their own hands if authorities don’t do what needs to be done.

I'm not sure what you mean by "what needs to be done". This was an unprovoked attack by another deranged leftist loon. Had someone then retaliated, I would classify that as what needs to be done.

This may not be what people think. I suspect something homosexual was at play here.

No, Kerry Sheron did provoked Thomas Caleb Butler because Kerry was a TRUMP SUPPORTER and Thomas Caleb Butler has a terminal case of TDS. At least some idiot in California will say that.

Prayers to Kerry Sheron's family.

A buddy of mine flew a giant Let’s Go Brandon flag outside his house. I warned him that he was going to attract crazies. Sure enough he got a death threat. The genius sent him a snail mail threatening him if he ever showed up at a Democrat Club social function. Narrowed down who the terrorist was quite a bit.
