A Marin high school coach and former San Francisco police officer faces multiple felony charges after allegedly grabbing an 11-year-old boy by the neck, forcing him into his car and threatening to put a bullet in his head after a game of doorbell ditch gone wrong in a San Rafael neighborhood.

Dean Taylor, 63, was charged Tuesday with kidnapping, criminal threats, false imprisonment, battery and child endangerment by the Marin County District Attorney’s Office, according to the Marin Independent Journal. He was arraigned in Marin County Superior Court on Thursday and pled not guilty.

6. One Never Knows

In my third year of high school, a guy in my homeroom shot & killed an 11 year old kid for throwing snowballs at his car.
Yes, you read that right.
The kid who was killed was with his 8 year old brother, and his 10 year old friend.
The police found 5 bullet holes in the fence, and one in the side of the winter coat hood the little brother was wearing.
He fired 5 shots with a 30-06 because they threw snowballs at his car.
He was paroled when he was 62. (2 years ago) Spent 45 years in prison because he couldn't control his rage over snowballs!
One never knows.

9. One morning at 5:30 am almost 20 years ago I was up having coffee when the doorbell rang.

It was an officer who had come to tell me that my youngest son--about 12 at the time--had been seen with a couple of other boys running away from a house in the neighborhood after ringing its bell. He had friends for a sleepover that night in the apartment over our freestanding garage where they could come and go without anyone in the house knowing about it.

Boy, that was embarrassing. Last time he was allowed to host a sleepover out there for quite some time.

7. When I was young, a farmer shot at a group of kids with a beebe gun for stealing pumpkins.

A beebe lodged in one kid’s eye. Wreaked havoc the farmer’s life for a long time. Adults have to keep under control or learn the hard way.
