GILLESPIE COUNTY, Texas - Deputies are investigating after a woman called to report that she was kidnapped and drugged and had shot someone in Gillespie County.

On March 15, around 12:42 p.m., deputies tracked the woman down near a winery in the 10800 block of East US Highway 290, where they say she described the vehicle and the weapon used.

A deputy found the vehicle in the outside lane of westbound traffic and found a man dead in the front-seat area.

An investigator interviewed the woman at the local hospital while deputies gathered evidence.

Police identified the dead man as 49-year-old Lance Demon Reid, who they say had been living in the Houston area.

The woman is a 45-year-old resident of Montgomery, Texas, according to police.

The Gillespie County Sheriff's Office says this is an ongoing investigation and no other information will be released at this time.

The man who was shot, Lance Demon Reid, was 49 years old. The woman who shot him is 45 years old. It makes me wonder if this was some sort of domestic situation.

Could be domestic. She was from the neighboring county of Montgomery and he was from Houston.

I wondered the same thing. I wonder how common it is to name a person “Demon”.

“Lance Demon Reid”


Almost as bad as having the middle name “Wayne”.

“Almost as bad as having the middle name ‘Wayne’.”

Yeah. Name a boy with Wayne with as a middle name, and you’ll be talking to him through Plexiglass in 20 years. And before that, don’t be getting too attached to your small family pets.

And “name a girl Rita, and you’re going to get a slut”. (Heard that on a sit-com long ago.)

Is there room in your absolutism for exceptions? My recently deceased brother John Wayne xxxxxx would argue. VN Vet/MP and so far as I know never talked back through plexiglass and despite my constant ragging insisted that chihuahua's were the perfect pet.

Someone who pronounces it d'MON, and can barely spell.

Of course! I was being sarcastic. My father was a Wayne. I have cousins and siblings with middle name Wayne. None are, or have been, behind Plexiglass. Dad did abuse animals, though. 😪

From Old Irish demon, borrowed from Latin daemon, from Ancient Greek δαίμων (daímōn, “god, goddess, divine power”).

There is John Wayne Gacy, & John Wayne Bobbitt.

One was a predator, while the other is a surviving victim of his demonic wife, who then went on to become a porn star. Both obtained degrees of notoriety. 😋

Wayne is not his middle name. The curse exists only when Wayne is the middle name. Notice I didn’t mention John Wayne either. 🤣
