"Brandon" tries burglary, gets shot in the muh hiney by homeowner
Quote:
Brandon Bethea, 28, was arrested Saturday morning after he was released from Frankfort Regional Medical Center. Deputies said Bethea was shot in the “rear end” by the homeowner, who was armed with a handgun.
Franklin County sheriff’s deputies were called to a home on Whiteoak Drive, near Owenton Road, at 1:27 a.m. Saturday after the residents heard someone in the basement. According to dispatch records, the homeowner confronted the person in the basement and shot him once.
Quote:
Bethea, though, was uncooperative with deputies and hospital staff, and refused to give his true identity, authorities said.
Franklin County Sheriff Chris Quire said Bethea was initially booked at the Franklin County Regional Jail as a John Doe, but jail staff later identified him as Bethea.
Quire said the investigation is ongoing, and the case will likely be presented to the commonwealth’s attorney soon. Though Quire said he did not anticipate any charges against the homeowner, evidence and information would be presented to the commonwealth's attorney on both.

Another travesty of justice that anyone even thinks the homeowner could face any charges.
