Couple accused of shooting 4, including 2 kids
Source: MSNBC
HOUSTON - A couple has been accused of opening fire and wounding four people — including a 7-year-old boy and a 5-year-old girl — who they mistakenly thought were trespassing on their property.
The victims, who were off-roading near a residential area about 40 miles northeast of Houston, were struck with shotgun pellets late Thursday after stopping their vehicles near the Trinity River so the children could go to the bathroom, said Liberty County Chief Deputy Ken DeFoor.
Police said resident Sheila Muhs, 45, fired once with a 12-gauge shotgun, then handed it to her husband, Gayle Muhs, also 45. DeFoor said Sheila Muhs called 911 and told the dispatcher, "They're out here tearing up the levee, so I shot them."
The Muhs have been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and remained in jail Friday. The Muhs don't have an attorney yet to comment on their case, DeFoor said.
Donald Coffey Jr., the 7-year-old boy, was shot in the head and was in critical condition Friday. Patrick Cammack, a friend of the boy's father who was driving in a separate vehicle, also was shot in the head and in critical condition.

30. Stereotyping And Hatred Directed At An Entire Region......
....is a violation of forum rules. Consider yourself advised......
This is a new one. I am sure that this rule will be heavily enforced. :sarcasm:
I can't get the adbot in here but it is priceless.

Odds are if that was true then they are more likely a lib.

Not seeing the rejoicing.

Absolutely, They're the very ones that own a 1/4 acre lot and then buy 4-wheelers and dirt bikes for their kids and themselves. Then they think the world is theirs so it's OK to cut your fences, run back and forth thru your wet spots and just generally destroy your place. .....then they get all indignant and down right mean when you complain or try to run them off.
HEY DUMMIES......I GOT A SUGGESTION FOR YOU.
GET A JOB, WORK HARD, SAVE YOUR MONEY OR USE YOUR CREDIT, MAKE PAYMENTS ON SOMETHING WORTHWHILE AND BUY SOME LAND........I TO NEED A PLACE I CAN RIDE AND DESTRIOY WITHOUT A CARE IN THE WORLD. ....AND JUST LIKE YOU, I DON'T WANT TO RUIN MY PLACE EITHER.
Modified to add....If and when you finally get yourself a few acres after all those years of trespassing, you guard it like it was Fort Knox or some top secret installation.....makes me want to armour plate a bulldozer and go for a joy ride.

Sick! The incident happened on a road where people use for off roading. I suspect the people involved in the shoting are methheads.

70. Meth'll do that to you.
These people need help. Serious, long-term help.
Yeah...it will cause the user to manifest serious, paranoid delusions. This from the "legalize everything" and "free drug offenders from prison" bunch, so, these incidents would happen with even greater frequency.
Texas will give them lots of help...Death-Row-style "help".

26. This is Texas
Nothing will happen, they'll probably get a medal!
After all those people were trespassing on their property, and they have a better case then the guy who shot two men who were trespassing on his neighbors property.
Bullshit, numbnuts. Even minor skimming of the article related would reveal to even the densest person that their property lines didn't include the site of the attack.
Don't worry, though...I'm sure you'll be standing outside in Huntsville soon enough demanding that the governor grant clemency to either of the two.

Dummies know nothing about law in general, much less Texas' statutes concerning the use of deadly force. Sure, you can use whatever force is reasonably necessary to remove a traspasser from your property; however, shooting a 7 year old in the head with a 12 gauge is a little over the top........and I'm pretty sure the Grand Jury will see it that way too.
