Armed Robber Shot By Store Clerk Is Being Sued By Robber’s Wife

This is the sort of upside down world that gives every lawyer, every court, and every politician in charge of them a bad name. A woman whose husband was shot and killed as he committed a robbery is now suing the store clerk that shot him. Yes, you read that right. The criminal is claiming the endangered citizen is the one in the wrong.
The robber, a scum-bag named Ramon Sedillo, tried to rob a New Mexico tobacco shop where clerk Matthew Beasley was working. Sedillo had a gun but when he set out to perpetrate his crime he quickly found out that Beasley had a gun of his own. Beasley fired first and shot the criminal dead in his tracks.
It was a well deserved ending to Sedillo’s useless life.


 But now the scum-bag’s wife, Mallory Sedillo, is suing the store clerk for shooting her scum-bag husband.

So, the guy who used his firearm to save his own life… he’s the bad guy here?
According to Sedillo’s ambulance-chasing, low-life attorney Amavalise Jaramillo, yes, the guy trying to protect his own life and property is the real criminal.
Here is the perversion of moral truth that the attorney says serves as the basis for his lawsuit:
“He had no basis to believe that his life was in danger. Most robberies end with an attempt to get money. They really don’t kill the clerks.”
So, in the attorney’s hindsight guesstimation, the store clerk should have looked criminal Sedillo’s gun being waved in his face and said to himself, “aw, he won’t shoot me! Why hardly any robbers shoot the store clerks.”
Uh, no, the store clerk did the right thing. He blasted Ramon Sedillio into the after life where he belongs.

Of course, the fact is this sort of situation is one of the reasons that we have a natural right to self-protection, as our founders well understood. This store clerk had every reason to believe this less-than-human robber meant to kill while committing his crime. The clerk had every right in the world, both legally and morally, to kill Ramon Sedillo.
Maybe this is why sheriffs in New York and Colorado, among other states, are beginning to speak out against the anti-gun lobby in this country. They understand that we, each of us, are responsible for our own safety.
