She got in trouble for shooting into a car on a public road, not in her driveway, or yard they were on a public road. It could have been me or you broke down in front of her house would she have shot us also. Most of you people are full of s__t
I'm a Meigs County native who graduated from MHS in 1976, went on to college and never looked back. Reading these comments I'm pretty sure that, like the majority of my classmates, I did the right thing. Good luck.
she should never have gotten a prison term, probation should have been enough, if a punishment was necessary. Now, the real criminals have gotten away with harassing a family, so what is next? These so called kids will be in even more trouble in the future because they have learned that they can get away with threatening others. It will be interesting to see what else happens. I wonder about how they were raised, the apple doesnt fall far from the tree.
