A mother in Blakely, Georgia, fought back a home invasion suspect with a spoon on Saturday then managed to pull a gun and shoot him dead.
The alleged attacker, 53-year old Michael Lindsey, was a convicted sex offender.
According to WTVY, Lindsey was found hiding in a closet inside the home. A struggle ensued and the mother held Lindsey off with a spoon before shooting him. Police believe he stumbled out of the house and collapsed on the front lawn after being shot.
He was transported to a hospital and pronounced dead.

If he didn't have a gun and this happened in Maryland, she would be charged with murder.
ReplyDeleteMaryland laws suck like that.
ReplyDeleteWhere can we all get one of those spoons? It sounds like the perfect non-lethal deterrent and defense against home invasion. (Yes, this is a perfect time for a meme - "This House Protected By Spoons - You Have Been Warned!"
Don't fear the dog, fear the woman with the gun.
ReplyDeleteIf that happened in MD that woman would be in jail.

ReplyDelete"Woman charged with murder for violating mans rights to enter home in Maryland".
In Maryland you have no right to self defense! If you are attacked you are suppose to call the police, so I guess you ask your attacker to pause while you call! Makes about as much sense as taking a water balloon to a knife fight!
