The ruthless insensitivity 
I honestly would've just shot her limbs instead of flat out killing her, pregnant or not.  (Then again if I was in the same situation I'd probably just do what I think is best for my survival.)
dfdfdfdfdf @ some of y'all acting like you would've been calm as **** if you were in his shoes.

Everyone is focusing on the material. She didn't only rob his material possession, they robbed his safety and sense of security. It's hard to live a life after something very traumatic like this happening to you.
That being said, he shouldn't have killed her. Use a rubber bullet (which, at least point in society, should replace actual bullets) and stun her long enough to call the police and have her hauled to jail or restrain her until the police show up.
Her being pregnant isn't an excuse. If this was a valid excuse, you would see more female criminals being pregnant to use the fetus as a scapegoat. She did a crime, she will be punished. The level of punishment is up to the justice system to decide, not on the elderly man. He crossed a line, sure, but she knew there would be risks (who knows how big in any situation).
Edit: I love how her boyfriend (and I assume the "baby daddy") just left her behind. That's some foreshadowing to what he would have possibly done later on if she was pregnant and gave birth.

It's not fair. she's dead, the old man is alive.

Just injured them geez. Some people just want any excuse to take another human's life. |
PLEASE tell me you're joking?
This is an 80-year-old man we're talking about and this was a late-night break in. Faced against not one but two thieves. Everything was happening quickly, and they both jumped on him. For all this man knew these people had intent to kill him. How is he to know if they're armed or not in such a whirlwind situation?
I don't think it's right he shot her as she was running away, but what's a shaken 80-year-old man to do?
Anyone who breaks into a home runs risk of this kind of situation happening and she deserved it IMO. Pregnant or not.

Hey, if you want to do crime, prepare for the consequences. I hope this causes fear for those who plan to steal because that ain't right.

Would it be more fair if it was reversed? She could easily have killed an 80 year old man by physically assaulting him.
It is by FAR more fair that she die than the reverse.

And she could have killed him, what's your point? This woman is clearly a criminal preying on that old man, she got what was coming to her.

Not shoot, since she is running away and the confrontation is over? Not take the law into your own hands? Common sense.

good riddance to that trash of a woman... how dare she and her boyfriend rob a poor innocent old man like that?! he had every right to take away her pitiful life.
hell, i would have done the same if they were trying to injure/kill me and take away my sense of safety and security.

it isn't just about being a burglary. they injured him and risked his life. they could have easily killed him. they are truly the scum of the earth, and i'm extremely delighted that she died for her actions and her boyfriend, wherever he is, has gotten the message loud and clear.

You can replace em.

No remorse for any woman that puts their shoes in a situation like this and THEN tries to use an infant as a scapegoat. She shouldn't have been trying to take advantage of a poor old man, and her lying about being pregnant was even more vile.

Your lack of situational awareness and criminal sympathy.

Why would you kill the burglars immediately...?! Shoot her in the leg or something at most. Let them be taken away and serve their jail time, instead of being shot of dead.

Why would a pregnant woman like her be stealing in the first place? The man had every right, pregnant or not, she deserved it for breaking into a 80 year old man's house.

If that's the case most of you would not even be here right now.

This, tbh. In what law code is "death" an acceptable punishment for "theft"? I mean, sure they attacked him, but he fought back and scared them off. I don't see exactly what you can get out of killing someone in cold blood just because they tried to steal stuff from you.
You're not gonna get all your stuff back (if they managed to take anything) because one of them ran off. And are you really gonna feel safer after that? If someone tries to break in again (because you know someone might), they'll just come in armed in case the man is there. What exactly did he get out of killing her: some disproportionate sense of payback?? 
And honestly, those of you who say she deserved to die for breaking and entering, I better see you all signing White House petitions to kill all the bankers who put us in this financial mess and those politicians who steal public funds. Those people do ruin lives -- at least more often than break-ins do.

And I think most of these people who think she deserved it are against capital punishment/death penalty. I don't see how shooting a burglar is a punishment that is proportionate to the crime. Besides, it shouldn't be up to the victim to decide how the punishment fits the crime. If not, we should just shoot everyone who does a crime and abandon the judicial system then.

What are you even talking about... you cannot compare this to a full out trial and sentencing 
Its not like the man was uninjured he had a f***ing broken collar bone from being horrifically assaulted upon his entry into the home and in the struggle he grabbed his gun in self defense. This woman's cowardly boyfriend ran while she tripped and he shot her. If you or anybody else was in this situation instead of reading it online there would be a significantly different thought process. And he didn't shoot her point blank assassination style he just shot her and only 30% percent of gunshot wounds are even fatal. I am sad a woman had to die because of this but the old man cannot be called a murderer and evil when he was just defending himself and his property.
