No Gun Involved...

No Gun Involved...

But noteworthy because of the premeditation involved, and the positive outcome of what would otherwise have been a horrendous crime. From the September 28, 2008 channel 6 in Indianapolis:
David Meyers (pictured), 52, was pronounced dead at the scene shortly after officers arrived following a report of a home invasion in the 3500 block of West 79th Street at about 3:20 a.m.Officers said they found Robert McNally, 64, on the floor with his arm around the neck of Meyers, struggling to hold him down.

When officers told McNally he could let go, they found that Meyers was unresponsive. Medics who were called to the scene then pronounced Meyers dead.

Indianapolis police Sgt. Matt Mount said Meyers had come into the home naked, except for a mask and latex gloves.

"He had rope, had a knife, had condoms, had a gag," Mount said.

Police said Meyers had gotten into the home through a window next to the girl's bedroom and that he knew the home well because his uncle owns it and he was an acquaintance of the family.
If you are wondering why this monster brought condoms with him, it wasn't concern about the victim. It's a way of making sure that you don't leave evidence that could get you convicted (as with the latex gloves). I have to explain that because there are a lot of very, very naive people out there. As a former co-worker explained once, for why no one should be allowed to own guns, "Why, there's all sorts of perfectly innocent reasons why someone might break into your home! Perhaps there's been a traffic accident, and he needs medical supplies!" (He claimed to be serious about this.)

This wasn't Meyers' first time in trouble with the law:
Meyers was a registered sex offender and was released from prison two years ago after he had served 10 years of a 20-year sentence for criminal confinement and sexual deviate conduct stemming from a case in Hamilton County.Meyers was also being sought in Boone County for failure to register as a sex offender.
There are some people that need to go inside, and stay there.
