Considering his age he’s probably the fastest of the three, a.k.a. the scout, and scouts don’t stand toe to toe slugging it out with the enemy. They hit and run and bring intel back to the main force.

Why do you care how many fire arms I have to protect my home... And hopefully no one is stupid enough to try and come in our house at night uninvited.

but there are plenty of Meth heads out here, so who knows...

He knew the boy personally, since he had worked for him in the past. That changes things quite alot. They were wounded and he had to have recognized them before finishing them off. Reads like revenge to me.

The dude shot the girl several times in the chest, walked up to her, dragged her across the room, and shot her in the head. He was not in fear for his life when he shot her in the head, or he wouldn't have dragged her across the room first.

I wouldn't convict him. I wouldn't have convicted the store clerk either.

Or maybe I've been in several life threatening situations that have made me feel this why. Maybe I've been the subject of a home invasion. Maybe I've had relatives killed in mass shootings. Until you've experinced these things maybe you need to shut the **** up. I might not have to feel this way if the dirtbags of the world weren't tolerated by the dipshit of thw world.

Sounds like a case of everybody involved getting what they deserve.

Let this be a lesson to anybody out there thinking about breaking into someone's home. Some people don't **** around!

Update Sept 30, 2013

LITTLE FALLS, Minn. - The man accused of killing two teenagers who broke into his Little Falls-area home on Thanksgiving Day is due in Morrison County District Court Friday for hearing at which he will challenge evidence against him.

Byron David Smith, 65, faces two counts of first-degree murder for the deaths of cousins Nicholas Brady, 17, and Haile Kifer, 18. The hearing Friday is expected to last the balance of the day.

Smith has been free since posting $50,000 conditional bail after he was initially charged with second-degree murder. A grand jury later indicted him on first-degree murder charges.

Smith is accused of killing Kifer and Brady after the two broke into his house north of Little Falls. Smith shot the teens multiple times and left their bodies in the house for a day before authorities were notified, according to a court complaint charging him.

Smith told investigators that he was acting in self-defense when he shot the teenagers, a claim that prosecutors and investigators are challenging. The shooting sparked debate about how much force homeowners can use when protecting their property against an intruder.

Morrison County Sheriff Michel Wetzel said immediately after the shootings that Smith exceeded that amount of force when he shot the teens after previous gunshots had rendered them incapable of being an ongoing threat.

Court records accuse Smith of shooting Kifer and Brady several minutes apart after the teens broke into his house. He told authorities that his home had been previously broken into.

Surveillance equipment captured video of the break-in, and a digital audio recorder caught audio of the shootings, according to court records.
