Thieves could go free while victim faces jail time
Julie HaydenInvestigative Reporter
4:49 AM MDT, July 7, 2010

WHEAT RIDGE, Colo. - Admitted thieves are going free, while an elderly Wheat Ridge man is facing the possibility of spending the rest of his life behind bars, all, he says, for trying to defend his property and his life.

82-year-old Robert Wallace said in February that he looked out his window and saw two men hooking his flatbed trailer up to their pickup. He yelled at them to stop, but they sped away, stealing his trailer. He told police he fired two shots at the pickup.

Minutes later, police say 32-year-old Damacio Torres dropped 28-year-old Alvaro Cardona off at a hospital emergency room with a gunshot wound to the face.

That would be you and me. Too bad the elderly gent missed or didn't use a bigger firearm.


If the guy would have been ran over there would still be dirtbags defending these scum.

He would go to the ER and we are not getting mad as he did pay tax on his portion. He also would go to jail for 2-3 yrs and these scum DA will not do anything.

I sure hope this gets some press. This is unbelievable! No drivers license and no insurance, sounds illegal to me. And has a rap sheet but hasn't been deported. Our taxes are being used to feed and shelter illegals instead of closing our borders. Where is the protection for AMERICAN CITIZENS???

...I like how people still have to put blame elsewhere even when it's their own selves doing it.
