Ethnic Mr. and Mrs. Smith


Here is just a small example of the stupidity that officers have to deal with on a daily basis, out in the field. Okay, so yesterday was a very busy night for us, people were off the chain. I don’t know what was up. Anyway, so I get called out, as a supervisor, to this house where an aggravated assault has occurred. The wife has allegedly shot the husband in the leg. Here is the story:

Husband and wife are in their bedroom, watching television and eating on some hot wings. Husband and wife get into a verbal argument (I don’t know what about). Whatever the argument was about it leads to the wife grabbing her gun, which she keeps under her side of the mattress. Well, not to be undone, hubby goes for his gun, which he keeps under his side of the mattress. That’s right, people. His and her guns. Can you believe that crazy shit. But that ain’t all, they also keep an extra gun and a shot gun in the bedroom; just encase. WOW!

Anyway, sometime during the argument, and this is how the story was told to me, the husband tells the wife that she shot him in the leg. No, joke. Wife doesn’t believe husband so husband leaves the house and drives his ass to the hospital. Well, of course, if you come to the hospital with a gun wound the personnel is obligated to call the police out to find out what the hell happened to you. Yeap, that is how we end up at the happy couples household, because neither husband or wife called the police to report this shit.

Oh, but it gets better. Wife swears up and down that she didn’t even realize that she had fired the gun. What? Are you kidding me? How the hell do you not realize that you shot the gun (and we are talking about a .357 here, people). How do you not hear that shit go off. Better yet, how do you not feel the recoil of the damn thing.

Anyway, Physical evidence is called out to process the scene. Wifey is taken down for questioning and is later transported down to our jail on charges of Family Violence, Agg. Assault. But don’t worry, folk, there is no doubt in my mine that the hubby will not press charges and the two will be back together, playing wild, wild, west again.

-One Man’s Opinion. Peace.

I am glad i never joined the force.

But you should have enough material to write your own TV show.

Love the title! It's very fitting though.

TX doesn't press the charges in lieu of the husband? MI will press the charges even if the other party doesn't want to. They don't play when it comes to domestic cases.

You have the best work-relate stories ever!

I dont know about this one, when that adrenaline gets to pumping you forget somethings. Although a .357 has a powerful punch and under those conditions a person would still know when the gun is discharged. What did the leg look like?

Dave Van Buren said...

lol.. that's black love.

There's never a dull moment in the life of One Man. You really should write a book. I'll be first in line to buy an autographed copy!

Debo Blue said...

Ahhh. The couple that shoots together, stays together.

Watch, in five or six years a report will pass over your desk with this couple's information but not it's because their children had an argument and started shooting at each other!

I'll put money on it!

Linda said...

*LOL*!!!!! See, that's why I'm all for legalizing guns.. how else are you going to get fun stories like these?

I'm just laughing at the hot wings though..

greetings from holland ;)

Ms Smack said...

The hot wings was a very funny visual, i agree with your Dutch reader! HAHAHA

Too bad we can't just shoot both of them. Put us all out of their misery!

That story reminds me of the "In Living Color" skit with David Allen Greer and Kim Wayans who played the old couple who hated each other and always tried to kill the other but they had a public face stating:
"We Are Stilllllll Together!" LOL

This couple could easily be my grandparents. One day I have to write about how he broke her arm and she blinded him in one eye during their 30th year of marriage. They remained together until he passed away 28 years later. To this day, though suffering from Alzheimers, she sleeps with a weapon nearby.
