In reply to the discussion: Lawrence O'Donnell DESTROYS Testimony Of Female Wing-Nut Gun Rights Advocate Gayle Trotter [View all]blue_heron
(223 posts)38. dead husband's drugs
I didn't track this story closely, but a few quick searches led to pages where my anti-virus software gave me warnings not to proceed.
but agree something about the story strikes me as odd. she's 18 with a 3 month old baby. this incident occurred the first week of January 2012, and her husband had died a week earlier from lung cancer. intruders were allegedly after his prescription drugs. I'm trying to figure out how old the husband was....an image suggests he was much much much older...and something suggests he was a rodeo rider? somehow they knew he had a lot of pain killers?
so the backstory of how this young woman winds up pregnant with a significantly older man who has terminal lung cancer seems does seem odd

Keep in mind the definition of assault weapons is inclusive of many handguns with 15 round magazines
