“A woman in Charleston, W.Va., may have saved her own life and the lives of many other women, as well, when she shot and killed an alleged attacker in her home last week.” That’s nothing really new. People successfully defend themselves from home invasions every day. And those doing the invading are rarely first-timers. They’re typically career criminals with a wrap sheets longer than a live rendition of ‘Free Bird‘. But as the msn.com reports, when Neal Falls showed up at the un-named woman’s home, he had “a ‘kill list,’ multiple pairs of handcuffs and a Subaru full of weapons and tools, including a shovel, knives, a bulletproof vest, a machete, bleach, trash bags, sledgehammers and axes” . . .
Falls is suspected of a series of murders of prostitutes in Nevada and Ohio. This time, however, his intended victim was able to disarm him…after initially defending herself with a garden implement.
The woman told the station that Falls, who was from Springfield, Ore., pulled a gun on her and began strangling her. She said she had a split second in which to take control of the situation.
“When he strangled me he just wouldn’t let me get any air,” she said. ” I grabbed my rake and when he laid the gun down to get the rake out of my hands, I shot him. I just grabbed the gun and shot behind me.”
Prostitution and the “escort” trade would seem to be inherently risky activities…for a variety of reasons. It’s fortunate that the woman was able to successfully defend herself from what would seem to be a very dangerous individual. And that she was able to use the proper tool for the job, rather than something she bought at Home Depot.
Harry Brown: “You failed to maintain your weapon, son.”
That’s one of the greatest lines ever. It was delivered perfectly. I love how he goes on to tell the guy a story of his times in the Royal Marines. I love it!
I am surprised that such a subconsciously pro-gun/pro-civilian defense film came out of the UK, starring My Cocaine, nonetheless.
As far as the grabbers are concerned it’s another gun related death.
Except this time it was the good guy (gal) that grabbed the gun.
I think what he’s saying is — and it’s true — this serial killer’s death will be counted as a “victim of gun violence” in CSGV’s and Everytown’s tallies – as well as something that lends creedence to their notion that ‘gun owners guns are most likely to be used against themselves’ – and indeed it will be.
This is a twisted gravy train for the antis, statistics wise.
yep and unfortunately they’ll say “see you don’t need your own gun , use the bad guys”
Damn. What is it with white guys and mass and serial murders? And on a side note. Phuck around in WV and you will get your killing done. Wayne county, represent!
Got to work a serial murder case once. I was shocked at how many are running around at any given time.
Last number I heard was 50 on any given day.
Right, but when you look at this guys picture the first words that jump to mind are not, serial killer. Probably been doing this a long time; hope he burns in hell.
First thought when i saw the picture pedophile then rapist. Followed by dead eyes and serial killer
grow up. dead eyes do not mean serial killer.
Out Wayne?
Weston here!
Was Wayne county. For 30 years now been Alameda county CA.
Contrary to what the media portrays, the commonly held belief that whites are more likely to be serial killers is subject to debate.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_killer#Ethnicity_and_serial_killer_demographics_in_the_U.S.
“A 2014 Radford/FGCU Serial Killer Database annual statistics report showed that for the decades 1900–2010, the percentage of White serial killers was 52.1% while the percentage of African American serial killers was 40.3%”
That’s a myth that only white guys do serial killing sprees.
There are plenty of serial killers in various races.
I’m still waiting for the white community to apologize for this representative of their culture.
Statistically false. There are more white serial killers because there are more whites. On a per capita basis whites are underperforming.
I know you boys ‘ OUT WAYNE ‘ can hold your own , married a girl from there once . Us Fraziers Bottom boys have a little tradition as well . I’m glad it was one of us hillbilly’s whacked this ass anyway . I love West Virginia , where you can still buy a 60 acre farm with a 3 bedroom bath house , barn , 2 outbuildings , a pond , a creek and $60,000.00 in hardwood timber $60,000.00 . Hunt , fish , farm and shoot all day . GO WVU , GO HERD !

Only white people are serial/mass killers? Don’t fall for the anti-white propaganda.
Fortunately, she was lucky, which in this case is far, far better than being unlucky. As Dan points out, escorting is a risky business that forces the escort to allow complete strangers into their home (or go somewhere private) which is why they are easy pickings for mass murderers. That and the fact that society doesn’t really care about them.
I’ve often wondered why pro’s don’t band together for protection or at least have some sort of plan if the wrong guy comes calling. Having a gun would seem to be better than a rake but I’m certainly glad things worked out well for her.
The only thing that could have made this story better was if the woman had grabbed a hoe instead of a rake. Kidding aside, good shooting.
I think you should read the story again–she had a rake, he had his hands on a ho’. But when he got rakish, she axed him. Or something like that….
Good thing she didn’t have a gun; he might have taken it away from her and used it against her. Look how he dis-armed her of her rake!
Someone tell Shannon, or doesn’t this count as defensive gun use??
Shannon should do In-calls.
….but you’d never hang up…
Dirk, if you had kapo bloombergs money Shannon would move into your garage, buck naked in a pair of knee pads.
One less mouth to feed in West Virginia jail. No money to be given for lawyers and endless appeals.
Well, if it hurts, it works.
For all you would be Bill Hickocks, if you actually read about the incident, HE had the gun, laid it down while strangling the woman, she took it up and killed him. Not surprising. I work with WV women day in and out and their Daddy’s taught them all how to shoot. Hell, even the old ladies are packin’ .38s.
Although, this is another instance of a concealed carry being turned against its owner.
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/man-killed-west-virginia-could-be-linked-10-other-attacks-n398716
Well let that be lesson to all of us, if you don’t want your own heater used against you, don’t set it down when you are strangling escorts. Also, don’t strangle escorts. Or anyone else.
It does illustrate some of the reasons behind the best practices of concealed carry though. If you pull that gun out, you better be intent and willing to use it, and right at that moment, otherwise you are just asking for it to be taken. In this case it was the evil-doer that made that mistake, thankfully, but that is hardly relevant to the point.
(I assume he was neither intent or willing to use it, I think that is pretty likely is this particular case.)
Oh, he was probably going to use it, but not until he raped her, for which one assumes he wanted her still living and not bleeding all over him. After that, he was going to kill her one way or another, then chop up her body, wrap it up in trash bags, pour bleach everywhere to cover his DNA, and then go bury the body somewhere where it would not be found. One of his (apparent) victims is still missing. Nice guy.
Speed, surprise, and violence of action. She grabbed what was available, which created an opening to grab a better tool.
If I was closer, I’d give her some business, and a big tip 😉
Just had to be a Subaru driver, didn’t it?
That was the first sign this dude was from oregano . Had to be a little guy too . Have you ever tried to fit in a subaru ? My wife bought one and we had to sell it because I couldn’t get behind the wheel .
I’d like to hear more about the rake. If it was one of those small hand rakes with the three tines, it might have made a decent weapon.
In all seriousness though, we should be mourning this man, this victim of gun violence, and doing more to make sure it never happens again. (No doubt he’ll be counted as such in Brady’s stats)
In all actual serious seriousness, I saw some photos that indicated that it was an LC9. This girl won the lottery, she should be in 4-5 Hefty bags right now. I wonder if she is going to start carrying, lets hope so.
I thought that was a Ruger in those pictures . Means most likely safety was off and one chambered .
I think one of the big take-aways here is that he didn’t use the gun in his attempt to kill her, he used his physical strength to overpower her and strangle her to near death. But she was able to use the gun to negate that physical supremacy. She certainly would be dead had she not had a tool at hand that did not require any significant physicality to use. Note the rake was not a weapon but a mere distraction.
You are completely correct. But of course the takeaway from the “other side” is that (1) yet another American has not only fallen victim to “gun violence”, but (2) was done in by having his own gun turned against him, which just shows that guns don’t make you safer. Oh, and that (3) she should have just complied, and nobody would have been hurt…(“strangled” really doesn’t count as “dead”, you know).
Anyone know if he was just about to turn his life around? I can’t find a thing on MSNBC….
I don’t think he fits that particular template.
Hooker with a heart of gold, nerves of steel, and a John full of lead. That’s what I call a happy ending, albeit not her usual one.. Lol
She weren’t no hooker , she be a hillbilly hotdog , um um good !
I wonder if he came and went at the same moment???
Another gun owner killed with his own gun. Goes to show you haw owning a gun is dangerous.
Goes to show that attacking people willing to fight back is dangerous.
FIFY.
Well, the antis are always saying how if you have a gun during a rape, it will most likely be used against you. I guess we’ll have to give them this one….hehe.
