Husband kills wife's lover; wife charged - CNN ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) -- Darrell Roberson came home from a card game late one night to find his wife rolling around with another man in a pickup truck in the driveway. Caught in the act with her lover, Tracy Denise Roberson -- thinking quickly, if not clearly -- cried ****, authorities say. Her husband pulled a gun and killed the other man with a shot to the head. On Thursday, a grand jury handed up a manslaughter indictment -- against the wife, not the husband. The grand jury declined to charge the husband with murder, the charge on which he was arrested by police. "If I found somebody with my wife or with my kids in my house, there's no telling what I might do," said Juan Muniz, 33, who was having lunch Friday with one of his two small children at a restaurant in the middle-class suburban Dallas neighborhood where the Robersons lived. "I probably would have done the same thing." Tracy Roberson, 35, could get two to 20 years in prison in the slaying of Devin LaSalle, a 32-year-old UPS employee. Assistant District Attorney Sean Colston declined to comment on specifics of the case or the grand jury proceedings but said Texas law allows a defendant to claim justification if he has "a reasonable belief that his actions are necessary, even though what they believe at the time turns out not to be true." Mark Osler, a Baylor University law school professor and a former federal prosecutor, said the grand jurors evidently put themselves in the husband's place: "I can see one of them saying, 'I would have shot the guy, too. I was just protecting my wife.' " The December night before the shooting, Tracy Roberson sent LaSalle a text message that read in part, "Hi friend, come see me please! I need to feel your warm embrace!" according to court papers. LaSalle apparently agreed. Darrell Roberson, a 38-year-old employee of a real estate firm, discovered the two, his wife clad in a robe and underwear. When Tracy Roberson cried that she was being ****d, LaSalle tried to drive away and her husband drew the gun he happened to be carrying and fired several shots at the truck, authorities said. Darrell Roberson's attorney did not immediately return a call for comment. His wife also was charged with making a false report to a police officer -- for allegedly saying she was ****d -- and could get up to six months behind bars on that offense. It was not immediately clear whether she had a lawyer. She had not been arrested as of Friday afternoon. I dont blame him one bit. Id do the same thing. Moral of the story: If you women cheat, you're goin to jail. But its ok if men do it... Unless the wife returns the same favor LOL. Discuss.
Asians are crazy that way too...lol So all you Folks watch out when the Mexi-CANs and Asi-CANs go ballistic!
okay, so I just need to get this straight. Guy comes home, wife is boning guy in truck. She yells "****" or "help" or something. He goes to protect her w/o knowing she had consented. He kills dude. He then finds out she was boning dude. She gets charged for dudes death because she basically pulled the trigger herself by yelling "****".
The same thing would happen in MN. You can use deadly force to protect a family member or yourself. He though something bad was happening to his "wife", so he shot the bad guy. It will kinda be a interesting story to follow as everything plays out. Russ
