Accused Child Rapist Shot Himself In Face With Crossbow. Twice.

A 65-year-old Selah man facing second-degree rape of a child charges made a preliminary appearance Monday in Yakima County Superior Court.

The man is being accused of having sex with a 14-year-old girl repeatedly over two years, according to a probable-cause affidavit by a Yakima County Sheriff’s deputy.

On May 20, 2018, the man’s daughter learned of the alleged rapes after seeing text messages on the girl’s cellphone, the affidavit said.

When the man’s daughter then confronted him about it and phoned deputies, he shot himself twice in the face with a crossbow.

The man was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle and eventually recovered.

At the time, it was thought the man wasn’t competent to face charges because of his self-inflicted wounds.

On June 7, a close friend of the girl and her mother reported to deputies that the man had been attempting to contact the girl again through Facebook, the affidavit said.

A deputy arrested the man during a traffic stop Friday.

Shot himself in the face? WTF buddy. You missed the proper target which is much lower, like between your legs. Fucking pedo.

I keep thinking WTF...ya shot, didn't die then reloaded and shot again...so you're just there with 2 crossbow bolts jutting out of your head?

The scene playing in my head of an old man shooting himself in the face with a crossbow, and then reloading it and doing it again is quite comical.

His daughter should have grabbed a hammer and just tapped those bolts all the way in.

Damn, he couldn't hit the broad side of barn, literally. Next time stick the arrow up your nose or in your ear, makes hitting the brain much easier.

I know, right? Seems more like they were fake arrows, with suction cups on them! Either that or if they did penetrate, the vacant space between his ears prevented any damage.

He hadn't heard the phrase "Third times a charm".

Too bad he's such a shitty shot

 

[Sejanus]

Where they Nerf darts?

He didn't die because he didn't want to.

If he wanted to, he would have shot up the roof of his mouth or up thru an eye socket

Where’s William Tell when you need him?

Standing behind a tree, eating an apple, and flipping this asshole off.

Not competent to operate a crossbow, anyhow.

Gut shot would have been fine by me.

All i read was "Give him more arrows and let him keep trying..."

Fletch: You know, I came this close to buying this place, but then I found out that Hop-along Cassidy killed himself here.
Alan Stanwyk: Who?
Fletch: Hop-along Cassidy. Bow and arrow. Very Weird.
Alan Stanwyk: What, are you doped up now?
Fletch: Don't talk to me like that, ass-face, I don't work for you, yet.

 

[Inferus]

As you can see, he was...quite skilled.

 

[Ripley]

Sounds like the daughter harbors no illusions about her father
