movieguy Posted March 11, 2005 Report Posted March 11, 2005 SON MISTAKES PARENTS' SEX FOR DOMESTIC ABUSE (Texas) - A 16-year-old boy was charged with shooting his father in their home. The shooting was originally reported as a case of domestic abuse, but deputies said the boy apparently witnessed a sexual act between his parents and thought the father was abusing the mother. Sheriff's deputies charged the boy with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a first-degree felony. Detectives told reporters the mother and father were engaged in consensual sex when the shooting occurred inside the family's home. Investigators said the couple's 11-year-old son woke up to his mother making loud noises. "During the course of lovemaking, the wife was evidently being somewhat loud, loud enough to wake the children up," Harris County Sheriff's Department Sgt. Mike Smith. The boy woke up his brother, who then walked into his parent's bedroom and told his father, 43-year-old Jacob Hughes, to leave his mother alone. Officials said that is when the teen shot his father in the arm. "The children interpreted the noise as their mother being in danger," Smith said. Authorities said they have not determined whether the mother was screaming for help. links
