IF LIBERALS HAD THEIR WAY, THESE 2 ANIMALS WOULD STILL BE FREE
Bruce McLaughlin Jr., 30, was still wearing his orange prison clothing when he entered the woman’s home just before 3 a.m., Pickens County Sheriff Rick Clark said during a press conference.
“The victim was trapped in her home, in her bedroom,” Clark said. “She was in fear for her life, she used lethal force to protect herself.”
McLaughlin picked up a knife sharpening tool inside the woman’s kitchen and walked to the woman’s bedroom, Clark said. She fired one shot, striking McLaughlin in the head. He was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
“This was a big guy. If she hadn’t had a weapon there’s no telling what would have happened,” Clark said. “I gave her a big hug. I told her how proud I was of her.”
Just minutes before he was shot and killed, authorities say McLaughlin, along with fellow inmate Timothy Dill, assaulted two guards and escaped from the Pickens County Prison.
Officers responding to the incident found Dill along Concord Church Road, not far from the prison. Dill, who had been arrested in July for criminal sexual conduct with a minor and was awaiting trial, now faces additional charges of kidnapping and assault and battery, among others.
A full investigation into the shooting is ongoing, but, based on preliminary evidence, the sheriff’s office said it appears no charges will be filed.
