DEER LODGE, Tenn. (AP) — Authorities in eastern Tennessee say a 12-year-old boy shot and killed his mother's husband during a domestic dispute.

 

News outlets report 56-year-old Kevron Thomas "Tommy" Durham was shot twice with a rifle Saturday night. A release from District Attorney General Russell Johnson says authorities had received at least five previous calls from the home for domestic violence, although none resulted in criminal charges.

Sounds like the boy was protecting his mother. Five previous calls and no charges?

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

At least we know who the real man is in the family. It is a husbands job to protect wife and children.

Failing that,  the boy did the right thing and the system failed all three.
