Wheat Ridge man who shot and killed home intruder won’t be charged
Shooting justified under Colorado’s “Make My Day” law
By KIRK MITCHELL
A Wheat Ridge man who shot and killed a 24-year-old man during a November home invasion will not be charged after prosecutors determined it was a justifiable homicide based on Colorado’s Make My Day law.The 1st Judicial District Attorney’s Office will not file charges against the homeowner, whose name was not revealed in a Wheat Ridge news release on Tuesday.
“This was a difficult case for our detectives as well as both families who were devastated by the death of the intruder,” Wheat Ridge police Chief Chris Murtha said in the news release. “Regardless of the crime that was committed, one family lost a loved one and another is faced with the long-term impact of taking a life in the course of protecting his family.”

Police: Man claims self-defense in Eleven North apartment shooting death
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — Metro Police are investigating a claim of self-defense in a deadly shooting that occurred in the parking lot of Eleven North Apartments on 300 11th Avenue North in North Gulch on Monday night.
According to investigators, 26-year-old Wontez Graham exchanged shots with the now-deceased victim, 23-year-old Timothy K. White. Investigators have recovered both of their pistols.
The shooting call came in around 8:50 p.m. White was found on the ground suffering from critical injuries after being shot. He was rushed to Vanderbilt University Medical Center where he died during surgery.
Graham was not on scene when investigators arrived but came back and spoke to investigators saying he had just parked his car at the apartment complex when a hooded man walked up and pulled out a gun.
Graham said he pulled his own gun from the door of his car and exchanged shots at the man whom he thought was going to steal his car. Graham and his girlfriend fled the scene to a nearby grocery store before they returned to the scene with Graham’s father. Both Graham and his girlfriend provided statements to police.

That first article is just dripping with bias and “just lie there and take it” sensibility.
Idiot.
I went through the police academy with a guy who had been a San Diego cop before coming to my city.
We were shooting the shit one time and he mentioned that he had killed a guy when he was just 30 days out of the San Diego academy.
I asked him if he had had problems dealing with it.
“Never lost a SECOND of sleep. The fucker was trying to kill me!”
Attitudes like that are more prevalent than the gun control jerks think.
If there is an impact it will be that the scummy criminal’s family will probably sue the man.
^word^ Play teh stoopid games win teh stoopid prizes. Good job on taking out the trash. 2 thugs off the streets for good and another that will be locked up for a good while. And Moore’s lawer…”…had to recover from wounds in jail…” “…he has suffered…” Cry me a river. And the store clerk? Shot him 6 times with a 9 mil? That right there should settle the argument over the works of the Saintly John Moses Browning (Howitzer be his name) v the double stacked 9mm crowd.
I do like the little Sig…It’s cute. Personal pocket accessory?
Claw, you’re up!
Re the Nashville story, the Whiz Wheel had to go back and research previous bookings, but was able to obtain a middle name. The claim of self defense and rendering a TRS* has more holes in it than the “victim” does. So, without further ado, results of the spin are:
Wontez Deonte Graham (BLDAM**) 37 x 5 = 185
* Taxpayer Relief Shot
** Bernathian Level Dumb Ass Move
What about Takwon Wilson of Wheat Ridge CO? He needs a spin on the wheel also. The good citizen homeowner that took his sorry azz out should give shooting lessons to the store clerk.
Okay, Takwon Wilson ($1,516.00 towards a goal of 5K on Tin Cup Rattle) (DRT) 22 x 3 = 66
Takwon DOH!
I absolutely love my Sig 365!
What a great little gun.
It does triple duty as a concealed carry piece, home defense gun and has enough capacity to be fun at the range.
My Sig 938 is the same size, but the 7 plus 1 round capacity is not enough when target shooting. Too many reloads needed.
Add a green laser and I am able to make hits while running away!
