The defense said the killing was excused out of self defense. The deceased was an ex-boyfriend who was harrassing the former lover and was trying to break in to their home. The man wielding the baseball bat was defending his family and home. That night I saw him as the villian, but my view of the situation was partially correct.<BR/><BR/>I was cross-examined pretty hard by the defense, which is something I would not like to happen again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-60215024085399121472007-09-04T06:23:00.000-06:002007-09-04T06:23:00.000-06:00My husband got the call.

A tornado was heading for our house in Oklahoma and I had taken cover in the bathroom with the two dogs and the cat. I called my husband and awakened him from a deep sleep to tell him the tornado was headed for me. Now, what's a guy supposed to do? It wasn't like he could rescue me though I believe I had visions of him jumping in his pickup truck and heading into the storm to save us. While I cried and he listened the tornado passed over us without touching down but it left a huge wake of distruction in its path.Granny Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-62281615852475046032007-09-04T00:14:00.000-06:002007-09-04T00:14:00.000-06:00The call from my mother telling me that my sister ...The call from my mother telling me that my sister had been killed in a plane crash.

I raced to the hospital as quickly as possible--My husband of four months had hit a tree, cracked his kidney and a couple ribs and was bleeding internally. After 5 days in the hospital, he healed enough to go home and then lie in bed for another few days.melissa walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12867099932178504026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-62523359077140145112007-09-03T10:18:00.000-06:002007-09-03T10:18:00.000-06:00Several, actually.

I don't know if this rates as one of the scariest, but it's one that left me totally bereft and when I crawled back into bed and Dear Hubby pulled me close to comfort me, the first thing I said was, "I'm an orphan now!" It was a little after 4 am and my brother had called to let me know Dad had just died. Dear Hubby, bless his heart, said, "No, you're not. You have me." No wonder I love the man.MissKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12726021829363492972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-51101709688934289532007-09-03T08:21:00.000-06:002007-09-03T08:21:00.000-06:00Yes, I once got a threatening phone call saying th...Yes, I once got a threatening phone call saying that my husband had better leave this guy's girlfriend alone because he was going to kill him, he knew where he lived, etc. It was horrifying. Come to find out...the call was meant for another Josh with the same last name. Good thing - cause if it had been my Josh messing around, I might have killed him myself!Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05769700320834756050noreply@blogger.com
