Such bullshit....
BTW, she absolutely did the right thing.
Two teenage boys were recently shot after breaking into a Sacramento house. Now, the families of Michael Sambrano, 14, and Steven Crider,17, are claiming that the homeowner was wrong to shoot the intruders.
The two boys broke into the home of an elderly widow. Both were shot and killed by either the widow or her brother, who was staying with her for protection. The woman’s house had just recently been broken into.
While the neighbors of the victim stand by her decision, family members are arguing that the shots fired were unnecessary.
“They were on their way out the door, and I just think it was wrong that they were shot,” Sambrano’s sister told CBS Sacramento.
Still, neighbors who have face similar burglars claim that protecting family comes first, and California law states that a homeowner is permitted to use deadly force when someone enters their home if they have a reasonable fear of death or bodily injury.
“He was not an innocent bystander,” said neighbor David Keck, “I’m sorry the little boys or teenagers were killed, but if it’s my family, my family comes first.”
The victim, 68-year-old Alice Hubbard Gordinho, had been robbed several times before, and was in fear for her safety. Police say that the fingerprints on the scene of the most recent crime match a break in to Gordinho’s home that occurred this past Easter.
“I don’t have any comments to make on this,” Gordinho told News10, “I’m sorry for the boys, and I’m sorry for me, because they tormented me. It’s been a tragedy.”
What do you think? Was Gordinho justified in shooting the two intruders?
