A former Florida sheriff’s deputy was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter in connection with the accidental shooting death of his girlfriend, authorities said.
Leslie Boileau called 911 on Thursday night to report that he had “accidentally shot his girlfriend” at their home in Ocala. The girlfriend was found with a handgun on her lap “and a rifle was also present at the scene,” the Ocala Police Department said in a statement on Facebook.
Grade school kids can be suspended and charged with a felony for doing the same thing with their fingers. What ever happened to the basic rule being taught to treat any gun like it’s loaded? I’m going to guess fake firing was something he did often, so he knew it would be fine. And then it wasn’t.
