Anyone who is picking up their pitch forks at the offender needs to read this thread first. Before you unload your rage, consider taking what the victim did as a learning opportunity.
It was 3:30am in the morning when the shot happened. The neighbor who discharged the firearms rushed downstairs to check on the woman who’s PC was shot, thankfully finding that she was not hurt. She was distraught, frantic, and told the PC owner that she will never own a firearm again and pay for all damages. They talked, and the PC owner learned that her daughter just passed away. A police report was still filed, but the PC owner isn’t pressing charges. They’re getting margaritas later together.
Let me be clear that this absolutely does not excuse what this woman did. However, what the PC owner did likely saved her neighbor’s life. You see, at 3:30am in morning, there is only typically one thing people would do with a fire arm, to themselves.
Anyone would be in their right to be angry at this woman after what she did. But the PC owner extended her compassion and became this woman’s friend at a time when she had every reason not to.
What the headline could have been was ‘woman commits suicide after negligent discharge’, but it was not. Imagine if the PC owner was the last person who spoke to her in anger, and imagine if she had to live with that for the rest of their life knowing that she could have done something about it.
This sounds super sus. I couldn’t find the comment where OP said the neighbor was upstairs, but the damage in the photos, to me, looks like the bullet came from the side. And it doesn’t jive with OPs comment in the in the original post.
The police said that the PC changed the trajectory of the bullet, and it would have hit me while I was sleeping if the PC hadn’t been there.
If the shot came from upstairs, where would the PC case need to be to change the trajectory to keep it from hitting you in bed? Hypothetically it could be possible, but those are some weird ass angles to make that work. Unlikely.
With the photo of the bullet mostly intact (I would expect it to be more deformed than that), that was supposedly found underneath the OPs pillow?? That they were supposedly dead asleep on? I don’t think this actually happened. This is a work of fiction.
