I remember this from way back, reading the op made my adrenaline pump again.
Glad you're still around to teach/preach to others the importance of CCW.
I'm going to reread this entire thread this weekend just to embed how important it is to carry
AT ALL TIMES.

First time reading this, congratulations for surviving and refusing to be a victim, congratulations on the verdicts as well.


Only question and it's probably been asked and answered but I didn't want to read all the pages to see... why no attempted murder charge?

Thanks.

1st Deg Assault carries same penalties, easier to prosecute than attempted murder or something.

@Blitz_308

That's a crazy story man, glad everyone was OK.

I see in the OP it says "2/2/16 working on getting the bad guys revolver" are you trying to get this for yourself? If so why? Just curious.

I think I'm going to have to sue for it...if it's not too late for that to happen.  It's weird, I have a hard time finding anyone that can tell me a whole lot about getting it.  I'm guessing that being awarded the gun you were shot with, is not a very common request.

No problem.  Glad it's at least been "food for thought" and maybe a learning situation.  Any positive makes it all good.

Nah, doesn't bother me.  If I'd lost one of my friends that night, then yeah, I probably wouldn't be up for a whole lot of discussion, but fortunately, we're all good.

Probably not.
I would have thought Brian could get them to release it, but I don't know anything about how these things work.
(Other than the fact that you deserve to have that gun).

Edit - What if we started writing to the Governor about it? I'll do it, if you want.

First of all, I totally understand wanting to own that pistol.  In your situation, I would want it as well.

Did the scumbag shooter ever receive any direction from the court to pay damages/compensation?  If he did and if you haven't received it, maybe this could be a way to receive part of what is owed.  just a thought.

This thread has been a great read.  I've read it several times over the years.

I had the option of pursuing a civil suit against him.  I decided it wasn't worth the trouble to take a couple dollars away from him every month.  He's having enough fun where he is and I'm still here to enjoy my beautiful wife and great kids.

Couple of interesting reads. As a former LEO in MO now an expat in OK I still like to read notes in case.net. Here are yours and your perp's latest DOC pic. The appellate entry from 2012 shows affirmed in part and remanded in part. Any idea what part of the decision was remanded back to the court to be corrected?

If it's the entry that I'm thinking of, there was a discrepancy, regarding the sentence length, between what the judge verbally stated and what she wrote.

Verbally, it was 30+25+10+10, to be run consecutively.  On paper, she wrote something to the effect of 99+ years.  He appealed the 99+ and (I think was appealing the guilty verdict based on mistrial or something).  His appeal on the 99+ years was found in his favor and he'll "only" have the 75 years, verbally stated.  The guilty verdict was upheld.
