When "Keeping It Real" Goes Wrong
A Memphis man has been charged with attempted second-degree murder after a woman was shot in the head during a getaway attempt that followed a domestic incident. According to police affidavits, Kevin Powell asked his mother to drive him to a home where he believed his EX wife was with another man. Powell got out of his mom's Dodge Caravan, broke out a bedroom window at the house and yelled, “It’s on!” to his wife inside, as he tugged on a blanket while trying to grab her. She got up and ran into the living room but Powell ran around the outside of the house and kicked the front door in, punched her in the face and knocked his wife to the floor.
The woman’s boyfriend woke up when he heard glass breaking and her screaming. He grabbed his yawk (gun) and ran after Powell who then ran outside and jumped back into the van with his moms. The woman’s boyfriend pointed the assault rifle at another man inside the vehicle and fired a shot through the van’s back window. The bullet struck Powell’s mother in the head as she tried to drive away. She was taken to the Regional Medical Center at Memphis, where she was in critical condition this morning.
In addition to the attempted second-degree murder charge, the boyfriend is accused of two counts of aggravated assault and with using a firearm to commit a felony. He’s being held on $950,000 bond while the husband is being held on $50,000 bond for aggravated burglary and domestic assault.......
By "keeping it real" thinking he was going to go over to dude's house and beat his EX-wife's ass, Powell got 2 charges and a $50,000 bond. By "keeping it real" and shooting at the mf who broke into his house and whipped his gal's ass, the boyfriend gets 3 charges and a $950,000 bond. And last but certainly not least, by "keeping it real" with her son, driving him over dude's house to help take care of his business with his wife, moms got her wig split.

Sauce,
The healthy thing for angry man to do, would have been to move on and find another young woman. It's disappointing that dude brought his mama with him while he was out doing dirt. There is no telling what kind of long term medical consequences this woman will face, if she survives.
As far as dude grabbing his gun, he should be able to get a lesser charge. Angry man did break into his house and attack his significant other.
It's just a foolish situation all the way around.
The mom died earlier this week @ the hospital. I am pretty sure he will never be able to get over the fact that he asked her to take him over there.
I am not certain of the laws concerning self-defense but I don't think if you aren't in harm's way, you can keep busting caps @ somebody. Not saying I wouldn't have done the same, being all caught up in the moment.
