Former CNN reporters involved in a self defense shooting in Albuquerque.

I liked the part where the police had to stop her husband, after being shot 3 times, from going outside and kicking the guys body. That's a tough SOB. :)

I didn't read that in the article. I bet it has been edited.

Husband is SF from back in the old days. Used to do a lot of mil reporting for the news.

It wasn't him, it was HER that was going to kick the s out of him! I am dubious about the ".35-caliber" guns they both had.

[Monky]

It was her hubby/fiancé/bf... She did none of the shooting. He was a former SF officer.

Shot twice in the abdomen and once in the leg... He was stark naked fresh out of the shower when it went down too..

The .35 cal is a new round to me...

I wonder why they stayed there? That part of town is where the Lone Ranger takes his garbage.

It's in a linked article in the comment section.

I'm more of a Patti Ann Browne or Megyn Kelly fan but I have to admit she and her husband are not the milksops I usually imagine when thinking of CNN. Kudos to both of them.

9mm? 38 special? they are .35 (ish)

Probably a missing 7 -- .357

Last night the news out of Albuquerque was telling the story and showed a stock picture of the couple as some event.

I said to the wife,

"I'd a tried to rob him too, if I saw the Monopoly guy checking into a hotel on Albuquerque's west side."

Made her laugh...

It's ABQ there is no nice part of town.

Man the criminals have it rough down there.. if it's not the ABQ PD killing them it's common citizens... they can't catch a break. (I would insert a smilie here however, people are offended by smilies and I'm not sure which are offensive)

ABC Nightly News just did a good article on this..... Hurray!!!

Good catch, here's the quote. I guess I should have said, one tough bi....... :)


“The police had to stay with him, keep me from going over to that man’s body and kicking the s–t out of him,” Russell said.

This article caught my attention this morning. It was a small write-up way back in the paper.

http://www.denverpost.com/nuggets/ci_28428656/police-identify-motel-intruder-shot-by-ex-cnn

"Chuck de Caro and his wife, Lynne Russell, were in their room when Walton, 27, allegedly tried to rob them, authorities said.
Russell, a former CNN anchor, said the couple was four days into a trip when they stopped at an Albuquerque Motel 6 on Tuesday night. They also had their dog. She said an armed man was at their door when she returned from getting something from their car.
"He pushed me into the room, and that's when my husband came out of the shower and saw what was happening," Russell told KOB-TV. "We tried to calm him, confuse him and do everything we could do to just come out of it in one piece."
Walton allegedly took de Caro's briefcase before shooting at him. Both Russell and de Caro have concealed-carry weapons permits, and de Caro "fired back and it was a shootout," Russell said.
De Caro killed Walton when he returned fire, police said. Russell was not injured.
It was unlikely de Caro would face any charges in what appeared to be a case of self-defense, police spokesman Simon Drobik said Friday.
De Caro was an investigative reporter for CNN and is a consultant for the Pentagon. Russell retired from CNN in 2005."
