    Default How the hell is this guy out on bond?

    Two counts of attempted murder, two counts of assault and burglary?

    A terrified woman said it only took five seconds for a crazed man to break down her front door and start beating her and her husband with a baseball bat.

    Trimble said Matthews was able to bond out of jail. Now, she's terrified to go home and uncertain what the future holds for her husband and their three children.

    Don't ever threaten to do anything. Either get your gun and then handle the situation or walk away. Don't threaten anything.

    Since it may have worked in this case I'm not going to monday morning quarterback the guy too much ... but this is why you always carry. If he'd have just gone home and got his gun and came back it might have been too late.

    Doesn't make any sense, but this seems to be the norm. I googled this Matthews guy. A "Andrew Matthews" was arrested for burglary with a couple of his friends in 2013. Age at the time was 24 and this guy is 31. I just wonder if this is the same guy which would make it even more insane.

    I called the DA and asked them what was going on. They said they did not expect him to be able to post the $250K bond, and were shocked when he did.

    Even a little 22 caliber revolver could have changed the outcome of this assault.

    I think also using a hollow core door as an exterior door would have changed the outcome of this assault.
