Having to Face the Consequences of Your Actions

This all started back on April 26th. Homicide in the 6200 Block of Boxcar Run

Three people decided that it would be a good idea to rob an occupied home, in Texas. [Insert Facepalm here.] They were wrong.

Detectives learned that Joseph Mathews, Yoham Delgado and Tiffany Ruoff drove to the residence with the intent to rob the homeowner. During the home invasion, Joseph Mathews was shot by the homeowner.

One of the other 2 was arrested that night, and the second miscreant was arrested in June. Both were charged with burglary, and released on bail.

In September, Joseph Mathews died as direct result of the injuries he received during the April crime.

On October 5, capitol murder warrants were filed on both Delgado and Ruoff. Ruoff was taken into custody on October 6 in Hays County. Delgado remains at large.

They thought they were going to score some cash, or whatever. One is dead, two are facing a very long time in prison. Though I suppose in Austin the prosecutor will work to reduce the charges.

And the Left in general will be screeching about how Felony Murder is unfair sometime between now, and the start of the trial. The very idea that you should be held accountable for the very-foreseeable consequences of your actions is poison to the Left. But it was foreseeable. This didn't take place in New Jersey, after all.
