Monday morning feel good story

| December 15, 2014

Yet another feel good story from Chief Tango, this one happened in Louisiana;

Karen Collins, 45, and her boyfriend, Robert Esteves, 42, had returned to Esteves’ house in the 9000 block of Sharla Drive after a Christmas party. They were lying in bed when Collins’ ex-boyfriend, Bobby Edler, 44, entered the room, according to the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office.

Edler ordered Collins out of bed at gunpoint. He led her to the front door, at which point Esteves grabbed a shotgun and fired at least two rounds at the intruder. One of the shots proved fatal.

Edler returned fire, hitting Esteves in the arm, before collapsing.

Police found him around 4:30 a.m., lying in a pool of blood just inside the door. He was pronounced dead on the scene.

Yes it is.

I dislike that they decribe the puke that was blasted with the shotgun as a “victim”. No, it should read,”criminal caused a citizen to use two shotgun shells to end a crime”. Something like that. Maybe better written, but the idea is there.

I don’t disagree with what was said but I would like to add that i knew bobby and he was a troubled soul who had trouble giving up the one he loved. That said, what he did was wrong and the boyfriend was right to protect his girlfriend and himself. I’m not defending this terrible thing he did but the story doesn’t make me “feel good”. BTW; I do support second ammendment right to bear arms and this is a perfect example of why.
