Dad beats, shoots and paralyzes Teen daughters lover

BENTONVILLE -- The father of a 17-year-old girl found his daughter's boyfriend hiding inside her bedroom closet Tuesday, beat him bloody with a pool stick, then left the room to fetch a gun. The daughter and boyfriend blocked the door with a dresser, so the father shot through the closed door, hitting the boyfriend in the back and paralyzing him, police said.

George David Reed, 48, posted a $150,000 bond and was freed from jail Wednesday afternoon as Michael Austin Guzman, 19, underwent surgery to treat a bullet lodged in his spinal cord.

Three of Guzman's vertebrae are fractured and doctors don't expect him to regain feeling or mobility below his waist, according to a probable cause affidavit released Wednesday after Reed's bond hearing. He was still in surgery Wednesday evening in Joplin's Freeman Health System, according to an intensive care nurse.

Benton County Circuit Judge Xollie Duncan set the bond Wednesday based on a request from Chief Deputy Prosecutor Shane Wilkinson. Reed was arrested on suspicion of a felony terroristic act, the most serious type of felony aside from capital murder, punishable by up to life in prison. He was also arrested on a charge of felony first-degree battery.

Defense attorney W.H. Taylor, who spent the morning consulting with his client at the jail, did not object to the bond. Reed is to be arraigned Sept. 10 before Circuit Judge David Clinger.

Taylor said that Reed has three children and lives with his wife, Sharon, at 13569 Vaughn Road near Highfill. Reed has been in Northwest Arkansas since 1962, owns a farm and rental properties, and has operated a moving and storage business since 1983.

Of course your point and mine will be investigated. However, think about this: the boyfriend could have been sitting against the dresser on the floor (have you ever held a door shut with your body, I have and you don’t stand straight up).

The Bad Guy was informed previously he was not allowed in the home without escort. The minor daughter lacks the legal authority to override that prohibition period.

While a self serving legislature may have passed a law that says any 16 year old girl may have sex with as many men as can get their hands on her. They have yet to declare her emancipated in any other area.

That the Trespasser was known to the first victim (The Daughter) means nothing.

She lacks the legal authority to allow him into her parent’s home his presence there as adult is therefore illegal.

How would the Father reasonably conclude the trespasser/sexual predator was

A. Not armed?
B. Not dangerous?
C. Did not represent a potential threat to the lives and property of the Father and his family?

IN HIS HOME!!!

There simply is no rational reason to conclude the situation was safe when he made entry and indeed the subsequent events show the situation was not safe.

“….ambush nature of the entire event.”

How you can you describe a Father entering his own home armed with only an improvised weapon when he suspects an intruder is present as some form of “Ambush” is a testament to the success of liberal educational indoctrination.

Then you go on to describe a Father as the Attacker. This when physical conflict occurs after the Father discovers a trespasser/sexual predator in his own home hiding in a closet.

Then for you to continue to describe a criminal hiding in the closets actions as self defense is beyond the pale.

The person initiating a crime is the criminal and the responsibility for all acts as a resultant of their criminality properly belongs as their responsibility.

Augments about proportionality have always been head on the pin sort of stuff.. The province of Monday morning quarterbacks. However, they in no way mitigate the original crime. Which in this case I would argue consists of criminal trespass and home invasion.

There are so many criminal aspects to the punks conduct for someone not to grasp the obvious only demonstrates their own inability or unwillingness to face reality.

To not conclude all was not as it should be and to take some preparatory measures to arm oneself with an improvised weapon makes the Father a Dolt?

The Father Protector is the bad guy and the Trespasser /Sexual predator is the victim?

Perhaps you just need a new pair of glasses because the ones you are viewing this event thru....are distorting your vision.

Whether or not his daughter chose to have intercourse with an intruder on his property, the individual in question is still an intruder on his property.

The paralyzed man was an invited guest of the mans daughter, if she exceeded her authority in inviting guests over his problem is with her.

He should of crippled his daughter to make it clear to her, that she cannot invite folks over.

He’s guilty of a lot of things..... but I don’t know if attempted murder is one of them.

Only if he did not know he could kill someone by shooting them.

“Yup, some of these posters are truly frightening. Makes me wonder about Free Republic and my participation here. Seriously.”

I know...no “sarc” tag either. Once they’re called on it, they usually come back with, “I was just joking.”

If he had gun control he would have killed him. What this dude needs is anger control.
