Christine Jenneiahn, an 85-year-old woman in Bingham County, Idaho, shot and killed a home invader in an act of self-defense.
The details provided by the Bingham County prosecutor show what sort of tough old bird Jenneiahn was.
She was struck in the head and handcuffed to a chair, and still managed to get a THREE FIFTY FUCKING SEVEN MAGNUM, get into a firefight, and blast the home invader with it.
She took a couple of 9mm herself, and refused to die over the next 10 hours until her disabled son could bring her a phone and she called 9-1-1.
Holy shit.
I’m sure she lived because death saw that and was too scared to come down and take her.
Never say die, don’t give up the fight.
That reminds me … I need to look at revolvers. (Hands ain’t getting any younger, ya know.)
I grew up in a rural area. Still live in that area. One early lesson well learned: “Respect others.” Consequences for forgetting that can be swift and severe. It’s good to see the Prosecutor saw this for what it was.
Whoa! That’s phenomenal!
