Auburn, WA - robbery victim is armed, fires back, shoots and kills suspect

[po18guy]

I would consider this a happy ending to an otherwise bad story.

I grew up in Auburn. It isnt the place that it used to be.

Back in the 90s, we called it helltown.

Right, my camera system will be up this weekend

Most can be set up to alert you. Often that will send the scum scurrying off when you turn a light on them. Kind of like Cockroaches. They run when the lights turn on and they will probably be left over if we have a nuke strike

Cameras are like razors in court. They can help you, or hurt you depending on what they show.

Years ago Wife was with one sister. As she is backing out of a spot in a mall she met another gal backing up. When we watched the tape you can see the jolt, hear Wife proclaim "WTF was that?" To which her sister said "You hit that gal!" I had a good laugh thinking its good we did not have to take that one to court. Our insurance found other driver at fault and it did nothing to our vehicle.

I lived in Chicago and growing up in 70-80's and even as a young man in the 90's we were and so were the woman all told to hit as hard and fast as possible and don't stop until law enforcement arrived

Well, the south side of Chicago
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware
Of a man name of Leroy Brown...
He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun
He got a razor in his shoe...

And his cousin "Corn-Pop" Brown.

Well, the south side of Chicago, on any given evening, sounds like Jiffy-Pop on the range.

So, if your lawyer doesn't like what it shows it can always be accidentally deleted.

If the camera is connected to the internet or stores data on the internet, the data is never really "deleted."

Doesn't surprise me. Had an ex that used to live in Auburn years ago. Wasn't a single day that went by that the police didn't show up on her block. Every day, there was always a car getting broken into, gunshots going off somewhere nearby, etc. Never hear about it in the news because it happens so often that they just don't report it to the media. Auburn is an absolute S-hole of a city.

Traffic Barrels could have prevented all of this, right?

I carry one in my trunk now, just in case.

Possession of stolen goods has to be declared as income, so says the IRS.
