Category Archives: Felons Behaving Badly

A whole year went by before he got caught again

Sadly, there was a woman who paid the price for letting this monster out

A woman was beaten, strangled and raped Saturday night when a man burst into her Cherryville home, according to police.

The man barged in, breaking the chain on the woman’s door, according to the arrest warrant affidavit.

The man punched the woman and forced her to the couch where he pinned her with his body and started choking her, the warrant states.

According to the affidavit, the victim lost consciousness and was then raped.

“When she started to become alert he would hit her again and choke her until she passed out,” an officer documented in the warrant.

The woman eventually fought the man off, and he ran from the house, the warrant states.  She then called 911.

Think about that for a moment. Each time she passed out, she didn’t know if she was ever coming back. She had to consider that each time the light faded might be her last moments on earth.

Suspect

He got out of prison last year in March. His record shows a complete lack of regard for the laws and morals of society. Yet the Supreme Court has ruled that we can’t execute people like him. Executing rapists is too harsh, or something. No, cutting off all his limbs, and dropping him in the middle of a pig farm in North Carolina for a horny boar to enjoy might approach too harsh. Might.

Armed home invasion in Gastonia

They robbed people they knew

Two men have been charged with robbing four women at gunpoint in a Gastonia home.

According to arrest warrants, the women were inside a North Cherry Street home on April 27 when the incident happened.

Two uninvited men came through the front door of the home with masks covering the bottom halves of their faces.  At least one of the men had a handgun, according to arrest warrant affidavits.

And who does something like this?

Suspect 1

Kind of figured

Just the sort of people I want invading my house

How would you like to have this happen to you?

A resident inside the home called 9-1-1 saying that her house was being broken into.  As officers arrived on the scene, the suspects tried to run away.  Officers were able to catch (Suspect 1) and (Suspect 2) at that time.

We rightly view a home invasion as one of the worst possible scenarios. The reason is that no one breaks into your house to tell you that you’ve won the lottery.

Suspect 1

Suspect 2 is not in the database, but the story says this about him

(Suspect 2) has also been charged with firearm by convicted felon.

How’s that for a wake up call? He was breaking in to an occupied home, with a gun, and he and his accomplice are both felons.

Assault, Kidnapping, Reckless Driving

What a wonderful person!

 A hostage situation, police chase and then a crash knocked out power along Highway 321 last night.  Police shut down 321 at I-85, snarling traffic for hours.

He is a real winner, this guy

During the chase the suspect threw one of the hostages from his vehicle, according to police.

Officers then stopped their pursuit to tend to that victim.

Moments later, (Suspect) crashed after he hit a utility pole and slid down an embankment, police said.

So what sort of person is he?

Suspect

Don’t even let him out of prison. Just leave him there to rot.

I wonder why Felonious Restraint instead of Kidnapping

One wonders what the difference is between “Felonious Restraint” and “Kidnapping.”

An Asheville man was arrested Wednesday and charged with felonious restraint.

Read the short story. Of course, he’s not exactly a pillar of the community.

Suspect

But people who “transport a 16 year old in a motor vehicle or other manner without his consent” rarely are

Only the guilty run

It isn’t true that “Only the guilty run,” but fleeing the scene of an accident is not cool.

A city man is facing a felony hit and run charge in connection with an accident in January.

He was probably worried that he’d get in trouble for more than the accident.

Suspect

One wonders if, by driving away with the evidence, that he got away with something else he shouldn’t have been doing.

Who knows why, or how, these things happen

Cops aren’t saying how they know it was homicide, but they are calling it that anyway

Police on Tuesday were investigating what they said was the homicide of a man officers found dead in a house at 1811 Guess Road.

They aren’t saying if it’s a knife, gun, hammer, or what

Victim

The who, however, has been established.

How is it that these felons keep ending up dead?

Special Probation strikes again

What’s the point in hyping background checks if no one is actually going to punish felons in possession of a firearm?

Police in Charlotte say they have arrested a man that shot five people at an east Charlotte house party on Saturday.

He shot five people, but who is he?

Suspect

He is a multiply convicted felon who was convicted of “felon in possession” back in August of 2008. Instead of getting the book thrown at him, all he got was “Special Probation.”

It’s really hard to take the “we’re just trying to keep guns away from dangerous people” crowd when no one actually punishes the criminals when they catch them!

Bad movie comes to life in Gastonia

This guy did it all

Gastonia police say a man robbed a Gastonia fast-food restaurant with a semi-automatic gun on Saturday, and then led officers on a high-speed chase traveling in the wrong direction on I-85.

He’s charged with it all, too.

Suspect

And he’s done it all before.

I think that this time they should not let him out. I think that society has had to deal with enough of his crap.

Suspicious hitchhiker

If you’re going to hitchhike your way away from the crime scene, get your story straight.

Mueller says he was searching for the suspects when he saw (Suspect) trying to hitchhike about a mile from the home.

(Suspect) said he had been at a party and was walking to his girlfriend’s house in Gaffney. But Mueller says (Suspect) admitted he had been part of the burglary after he was caught lying about the party location.

So what sort of person robs a house, runs, and tries to hitchhike his way back home?

Suspect

They get dumber every year.
