Thursday morning feel good stories
Jerry Dewayne Hocutt, 44 broke into a home in Galveston, Texas, he encountered the homeowner inside and lunged at him with a knife. The homeowner fired a single round, hit center mass and the police arrived to find Jerry face down and DRT (dead right there).
In Memphis, Tennessee, an armed fellow attempted to rob an Extreme Gear clothing store, but an employee shot him and he ended up DOT (dead over there) at the hospital.

The good guys are batting 1.000 today. Good work!
Not only batting 1.000, Mr. Bill – that’s 2 for 2 with 2 HR. Can’t do much better than that in 2 PAs.
Now THAT’S what I’m talking about! One shot, center mass, DRT!
Brevity and accuracy in writing. Jonn, you should get a Pulitzer Prize.
Aaaah, I love it! Good guys 2, Bad guys 0

of course, no mention of him dying from lead poisoning.
THESE guys put in their range time. I’m going this weekend, itchy trigger finger 🙂
I don’t know if that Extreme Gear store is the same chain that we had outside of Benning for awhile (it folded after a short time, lack of advertising and was in one of the worse neighborhoods), but if it is, I know the store outside of Benning had all of their enployees open-carrying on the premises.
If thats the case, then that was a terminally stupid criminal.
I suspect that a goodly number of these DOT folks were what we used to call DOA. They were actually dead when they went in the ambulance but must be pronounced dead by a real doctor. Once CPR is started it can only be stopped by a physician. I think the success rate for CPR is about eight percent, not as high as you see on TV.
Many times the DOT is shipped to an ER after the first officer or EMT on scene detects a “heartbeat”. It’s far better to get the dead body out of the area, so that the family can go to the hospital and do the DFO(done fell out) routine, especially if there are news media and their cameras on scene.
No one has to deal with all of the dead one’s “brothers” screaming that you’re letting him lie there cuz he’s ____________.(insert the race of your choice)
All in all a good day
Hell of a good day.
