‘Castle Doctrine’: Minnesota man kills teen burglars in house, waits 24 hours to report – Everything Law and Order Blog

It was the day of Thanksgiving 2012, and retired military veteran Byron Smith was home alone watching surveillance cameras, fearing his house might get hit again by burglars. Smith admits to investigators that he shot two teens inside his house, but he says he was just protecting his home after a rash of recent burglaries in the area. From 2018: https://bit.ly/30pEomW

  1. So they were in his house but yet yall still say he "heartlessly killed them" and just like that yall earned my unfollow. Leave people and their property alone and stuff like that won't happen how about that????

  2. I know this is old but i def don't feel bad for those kids… first of all that's what those little brats get for breaking into someone's house.. I wonder what kind of upbringing and Role Models they had, I have never once thought about breaking into someone's house or ever would want to do that… like wtf… and you don't know what kind of person that you are breaking into their house in, what kind of person you're dealing with so those kids were dumb asses

  3. He should be free… Sometime this proscutor should go to jail instead… Because i know for a fact that he would do the same if an intruder broke into his home. He would do everything trying to protect his home and his family or himself. You dont know what intruder have with them. Knifes or guns.
    Is a life for a life in the fast moment…. You go out looking or asking for trouble. You got trouble. I dont feel sorry for this 2 punks but instead feel sorry for the veteran. He should be free…. Is a mess up country and justice system always protecting the criminal. We need to make America great again… For the people not the criminals…

    Imagine the two kids went inside and kill the old man with his own stolen gun…..instead get killed by the old man… How does the parent feel? How does the prosecutor feel? Or are they just gonna say oh this are kids and they shot him by accident… B.s….. ✌

  4. Sooo, their punishment FIT their crime, thiiiis is why… u leave people's SHITT ALONE!!! I'm pissed Byron got life, but hey… He's learning what BLACKFOLK goes thru in ameriKKKa 😢😢😢😢
    He SHLDA called the cops immediately & he wldnt have to no tiime… Castle DOCTRINE

  5. Is this man still doing jail time? Wtf how… he had multiple signs saying private property.. break in you get shot JUSTICE SYSTEM IS SO FUCKED

  6. I think Byron got a raw deal. No doubt the jurors voted with their aesthetics rather than logic. When somone uninvited and most intrusively enters into your home ( aka breaking in ) one should have the right to defend their home and themselves. Had these kids NOT‌ broken into their home they would be alive. How did the parents of these kids reconcile that their darlings were breaking into homes? Had these 2 offenerders not looked so "cute" and had been more unappealing looking Smith would have won hands down. How did the police recommed that Smith defend himself against the multiple breakins? Unfortunatly "justice" is not blind…. just stupid.

  7. All I gotta say is this War veteran reached his last limit plus he lost so much of his personal family heirlooms & expensive items to these thieves that he finally just had it!!! These punks entered HIS HOME and STOLE HIS PROPERTY that he earned and purchased himself over the course of his lifetime so it’s totally understandable why he chose the route he did!! He may have used a lot of force BUT did he invite them to rob his home? NO!!
    If they didn’t decide to do what they planned that day they’d still be alive today!! When you play with fire you eventually get burnt!! 🤷🏻‍♀️
    DON’T TAKE WHAT ISN’T YOURS!!!
    So it’s kinda hard to feel any sympathy for these thieves!! I actually feel more sympathy for the true victim Mr. Byron David Smith he absolutely did not deserve any jail sentence!! Maybe house arrest but not life.

  8. All parties are to blame, teens shouldn't be breaking in to people's houses. Homeowners shouldn't shoot teens, unless you are being physically threatened.

  9. Their parents should have raised them not to break into other people's homes and steal their property. Well, they picked the wrong house. The elderly man does not belong in prison. He's not a public threat.

  10. Disgusting that they painted this man like a criminal and the robbers like victims, thats libtard logic for you. I can't even finish watching this garbage.

  11. I think Byron’s only mistake(s) was waiting 24 hours to notify the police. His comments into the audio recorder didn’t help either.

    Lesson: stay the f*#k outta other people’s homes.

  12. This is a failure of the police department and local law enforcement plain and simple, Byron proected himself, his property, and his belongings, all in the same time living in fear of his life for years while the police did nothing

  13. the comment on this are revolting. two teenagers were brutally executed. this was a premeditated crime committed by byron. fucking disgusting how you all are treating this like he was just "protecting his home" when he continued to shoot and beat these kids to death after they were down.

  14. There's a reason why he's doing life without parole. He dug his own grave when he kept taunting and shooting at the girl's lifeless body and waited 24 hours to report a crime.

  15. 2 dead kids? Nah she was 18 thats old enough to be tried as a adult, therefore she should have known there are consequences too wrongdoings

  16. Oh shut up!!!!!! That’s the police excuse… and your using it to justify his actions!!!! Only takes a couple shots if that to stop a person from harming you.. what he did was pre meditated overkill

  17. Nuttier than a fruitcake. Definitely needs to be behind bars for the rest of his life. Why is he whispering in the audio too? As if he was gonna be heard. Also, why did he record it in the first time? Not the brightest crayon in the box

  18. Wait if someone dies during a felony break in it supposed to be on the burglars! He was the intended victim …and they show innocent .pics of them….i cant sypathize with hoodlums who asked for it! The jury wasnt told of prior offenses…FREE BYRON!
