Final moments before YouTube star is shot dead in botched stunt
PORTIONS of a video released by police show the final moments before a young woman shoots dead her boyfriend in a YouTube stunt gone wrong.
The prosecutor in Norman County, Minnesota released a transcript and the portions of the video Pedro Ruiz III, 22, took with his pregnant girlfriend, Monalisa Perez, 20, last year.
The final video of the incident was not released because Norman County lawyer James Brue said it was “clearly offensive to common sensibilities”, Fox News reported.
According to court documents, the couple had prepared the stunt hoping for it to go viral.

Police said the couple set up two cameras outside their home in Halstad, Minnesota. Their three-year-old daughter was watching, along with about 30 other people.
Perez, who was pregnant with the couple’s second child at the time, was heard in the video telling Mr Ruiz she could not shoot him.
Mr Ruiz asked his girlfriend to shoot him with a .50 caliber handgun while he held an encyclopaedia to his chest.
He assured her that he had done it before with a different book.
“I can’t do it babe,” Perez said. “I’m so scared. [inaudible] my heart is beating out of [inaudible].”
“Babe, if I kill you what’s gonna happen to my life. Like no, this isn’t OK,” she said. “I don’t want to be responsible.”
Mr Ruiz replied: “As long as you hit the book, you’ll be fine. Come on.”
The bullet went through the book, killing Mr Ruiz on June 26, 2017.
In December 2017, Perez pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter and was sentenced to 180 days in jail. The young mum will serve her sentence in 30-day instalments each year for six years.
Before his death, Mr Ruiz was an up-and-coming YouTube star.
The couple had a presence on the site by performing pranks including eating a doughnut with baby powder sprinkled on top.

I’m glad this tosser’s dead. Too bad the bullet didn’t somehow ricochet back into the mom’s head.
This type of extreme stupidity is difficult to comprehend.

Had they even done a dry run? It's like that Austrian moron who tested his parachute by jumping off the Eiffel Tower but didn't try it with a dummy first or something.

Oh yeah bro, Ray Wylie Hubbard has been kicking around Dallas for decades. I always wondered if that was his actual name because there is a Lake Ray Hubbard and a town named Wylie right by Dallas as well. I guess so?
I've actually taken that route described in the song when I took a trip to Joplin, Missouri years ago. All of that stuff mentioned is right along highway 69 in Oklahoma although I did not see the Pop's knife and gun shop in Tushka. No way to really look it up either with it being like 2006 and all I had was a shitty flip phone with no internet. I heard the Club 69 building is still there but it is a different name now.
I also like James McMurtry's version as well(the song writer). Pretty good guitar playing on this acoustic version(I think at South by Southwest in Austin)
