A 27-year-old mother of two has been fatally shot by an off-duty sheriff's deputy after he suspected her of shoplifting at a Houston Walmart.

Harris County Sheriff's deputies have said that victim Shelly Frey, Tisa Andrews and Yolanda Craig were stealing when they were confronted by Louis Campbell a 26-year veteran of the force who works as a security guard at the store.

According to Campbell the women ran to their car and when he rushed to open the door, they accelerated away - at which point he fired the deadly shot into the car which hit Frey in the neck.

Tragically, Frey wasn't even supposed to be at a Walmart that evening.

Earlier in the year she pleaded guilty to stealing shirts and a package of meat from another Walmart and as part of her plea arrangement she agreed to never enter Walmart stores again.

I can't count the times I've been called, liberal, moron, idiot, etc. by one of them because I dared to disagree in the slightest with them.

There are some on this very thread. No I won't "name them", We all know who they are.

I try, don't always succeed, with the philosophy of "live and let live".

It's good to speak up about them at times, otherwise, they can come to believe that their ideas are accepted here. It can be somewhat amusing when they threaten to leave this site, but it can also be annoying. Thank goodness that they are a small number of us.

Hey there.. long time not chat.. hope everything is well with you and family :~)

Yeah, there are some here that have been ‘allowed’ for far too long... but who am I to complain :/

[Bikkuri]

I have never sat there hitting pause and play on a live camera,

Sorry, you've already proven that you probably lack the intelligence.

**wasted** oops

I have never sat there hitting pause and play on a live camera, thinking it was hilarious. But I can totally see some doofus in a uniform doing that.

Good grief. You're from New Jersey? Now that's funny.

[trisham]

Thank you! It’s great to see you, Bikkuri! A very Merry Christmas to you and yours. :)

[trisham]

[Bikkuri]

I usually sit back and grit my teeth when I see posters like that.. and you are right, sometimes it is good for the sould to speak up at times.. I lurk and read more often than I write, especially after the priamries.. and more so after the election. BUT, there still remain the cockroaches here on FR, and it is frustrating :/

Being that some have been here since before I came here (in 2003), I don't see anything besides a miracle of removing them from the back-walls of the pantry :p

But as I always say no bullet holes in the front windshield, nobody was trying to run you down!

Not in Forward Gear anyway!

[Bikkuri]

A very Merry Christmas to you and yours. :)

And the same back at ya :)

[trisham]

Sometimes I’m just not up for it either. I simply shake my head and move on.

[trisham]

Thank you! :)

[Bikkuri]

Wow.. typos rolling in :/ sorry about that.. I need some sleep (0745 here.. should back off FR..lol)

Philadelphia. Two home invasions (once while I was in the house); two street muggings, one at gunpoint; one car theft. God protected me in miraculous ways; I will be forever grateful.

“... why assume that a thief, who might be looking to get-away quick, would park head-in?”

From the article linked at #79: “Campbell followed them into the parking lot, where the shoplifting suspects climbed into a waiting car.”
