Morgantown mom catches pedophile trying to rape child, blows his head off with shotgun

The 42-year old mother of the girl told investigators that she woke in the early hours of the morning after hearing a commotion in her daughters room. She grabbed a shotgun from her closet and rushed to her daughter's room, where she was confronted by the sight of an unidentified man attempting struggling with her daughter.


Startled, the man turned around to face the mother, at which point she fired directly into his face, blowing off most of his head. The rapist – a 53 year old sex offender known to police for a series of crimes on young victims – died instantly.

It is not clear at this point if any charges will be filed against the mother.

Good for her! If criminals knew they had a good chance of having "most of their head blown off" there would be far less crime!

I especially like the part where Mom turns the Dudes head into a purple spray! Good job Mom, that's the way to do it!
See what happens when folks have the means to protect them selves and their loved ones, Bad Guys pay the price for being bad, and no innocents were hurt in the 1200 feet per second administration of Justice!

NOT REAL NEWS: A West Virginia mom did not kill a pedophile in attempted rape

 

[Flymph]

Seems pretty cut and dry to me! The guy deserved it, and probably sooner than he got it!

 

[Lasers]

A mother did not shoot and kill a "notorious pedophile" attempting to rape her 12-year-old daughter in Morgantown, West Virginia, despite what an article circulating online reports.

The article claimed the 42-year-old woman shot the assailant in the head after finding the man struggling with her daughter. The story said the 53-year-old sex offender was found dead by police.

Ed Preston, chief of police for the Morgantown Police Department, told The Associated Press in an email the report is false. He said the photo with the story featured a police car with license plates that were more than 10 years old, and the car's number "has been out of service for several years."

Preston also noted that "ABC News 14" does not exist in that area.

This is part of The Associated Press' ongoing effort to fact-check misinformation that is shared widely online, including work with Facebook to identify and reduce the circulation of false stories on the platform.

Even fictional ones, I guess.

Like all good Fairytales, these stories circulate not because people aren't aware that monsters are real...
.... theses stories circulate because people want to believe monsters can be killed.

Fake

It's still a good story with a good ending even if it's fake. Similar situations do occur, and this story serves to remind us how to handle them.

And the line about not knowing if there would be charges against the mom, serves to remind us who not to vote for in elections.
