Home invasion robbery update

Some of you may have read about my wife and I. July 24th a scumbag broke in our house at 3am, woke us up in bed with a gun in one hand and a baseball bat in other hand, a knife in his pocket and a backpack with ducktape, zipties toilet papers and nylon rope. Scumbag left the house on a gurney with no handcuffs.

Next stop was major trauma hospital for serious head injuries reseived from the bat my wife took away from him and beat him with until he complied to my command, "stop moving". Took 50 swings before he figured out that the bat stopped moving when he stopped moving. We had no weapons in the house and were both naked and deep sleeping. If you have watched CSI and look at the blood spatter on the wall and ceiling and the big circle on the rug, and broken furniture that is what the room looked like and it was all his.

Now he is in jail and has pleaded guilty to all charges but the court can not send him to prison yet because he has tramatic brain injury. My wife knocked him back to the 3rd grade.


Buddy gave us a gun with a built in laser and showed me how to point and pull the trigger, thought I was safe.

Went to the gun range, even with pointing the gun with a laser and pulling the trigger i was a bad shot.

Went to a home protection course at our church and found out i was stupid

Went to FRONT SIGHT for a 4 day defensive handgun course and found out that because the gun had a modified it malfunctioned 20% of the time.

Got 4 days of police and military level training with out having to do pushups or go to iraq. Bought 2 life time memberships and go back anytime and take any of there courses for free{ goto frontsight.com and you can see all the courses and the cost of each one}

Fixed the gun, bought 2 life time memberships to FRONT SIGHT and knew I was stupid but atleast had the building blooks to learn how defend myself with a gun

Just like a snowmobile, anyone can turn the key flip the kill switch, pull the rope and empty a tank of gas. What is that person who has ridin 3 years of trail riding going to do when he or she{wife child friend} has to side hill above a cliff, find someone in a avalanche, basic first aid or spend the night in the woods.

We got lucky july 24th, It was like being buried in a avalanche with no help or equipment to get free. I was able to claw my way out.

I can go on and on with the analogy but by now you either get or are stupid.
 
good for you for getting the training to go with the gun, I've been preaching that on here every since I first logged on and started reading SW.

A gun ain't chit w/o the training to go with it. when the adrenaline dumps, you won't be able to do any fine motor skills let alone think properly. If you don't have the muscle memory to do it automatically then you'd be hosed.

Same with scenerio training, your reactions must be automatic...your body will recognize a scnerio and will follow your training.


amazing stuff really
 
Good on ya w8tn4u! I think you guys did right and good defending yourselves and getting the proper training too.:beer;

Just out of curiosity....was there any chance of you guys getting in trouble for your actions against the perp?
 
Sorry to hear you had to go through this, but what a great story. Considering he had a gun himself, how did your wife manage to get the baseball bat from this guy and the gun away from him?
 
Good question ridgerat...especially with how messed up todays society is.

Glad you/your family weren't hurt w8tn4u.

Good point on the beacon...i've been thinking lately that we (me and the guys i go riding with) need to practice beacon drills; don't need to have snow to practice.
 
Wow, glad you and your wife are here to tell the story!!! Your wife's a team player....., to the death if need be!!!:cool:

Crazy desperate phocks out there, the good peeps of this nation must stand up throw the garbage out!
 
Glad to hear he is the one pleading guilty and you all are OK!! I just hope that some retarded lawyer doesn't drag you guys through a messy trial to try and get compensation for HIS injuries.

BTW - I'll bet you guys don't sleep naked anymore......:beer;:D
 
I still think it's funny your wife was the one beating the crap out of the guy.
Bet your nicer to her these days, huh. :)

A gun course is always a good way to go.
Any time at a firing range is also a great way to go.
My wife loves the 45.
She has 3 of em. The one she really likes is polished, balanced and ported (comp.).
I'll stick to the 357 snub.
 
Should have killed him. It would have saved us all a lot of money. Nice job though, sounds like he got what he deserved.
 
I had wondered, what ever happened with this ordeal. Glad to hear the piece of ch!t is behind bars! Hopefully he will get f#ck*d in the @ss a few time's by Big Black Bubba, while he's sitting his dumb @ss in there........
 
glad to read everything turned out the way it did for you guys, Im sure theres going to be alot more of this happening. Hope everyone on here arms themselves and gets out and practices as much as they can. crazy world out there.
 
I am sorry this happened to you.

I had a rough childhood and know time will heal the trauma .... until something triggers the memory.

I am very glad he got the worst of it. I know a couple who was less fortunate and I don't know their whole story but she is emotionally trauma to the point she won't go anywhere.

What was the moron charged with? Robbery , attempted kidnap, attempted murder?

Completely agree! Someone comes into my home period, they are leaving in a body bag....especially being in law enforcement...I deal with the slime of the earth. More and more officers are becoming victims of home invasions. I am actually taking my significant other out this weekend to sharpen her skills. I wish more people would be proactive with this kind of stuff....but I am glad you are receiving training now....make sure your wife gets it too. The NRA course for women is a great one. Good on her for beating the sh*t out this guy and hopefully he becomes a vegetable...and yes it does suck taxpayers have to pay for him! I am glad it turned out the way it did and you both are ok!

Thanks for the update,glad you two survived this ordeal,like BigHoe said I know it easy to say kill him ,but you and your wife are still here:D.Cheers Red Dog. LETS RIDE.
 
Rule #1: life's too precious to depend on a cheap or broken gun. Buy the best.

Rule #2: A 12 guage pump beats a 9mm, and the sound of it racking a shell makes grown men pizz themselves.

Get out and shoot that gun, until you can operate it in the dark, jams and all. You'll know your ready, when you hear a crash in the house, and you automatically roll out of bed find your pointing a gun at the door.

Glad everything is going good for you guys. Is he the only one going to jail, or is the other person awaiting trial?
