I agee that the legal ordeal is likely far from over for this woman. It's sad really. She absolutely did the right thing.

Ordinarily I'm not into folks going out of their way to get involved in a situation, but there are times (like this one) that call for it. Since neither the robbery victim/son or his girlfriend were able to protect themselves against this CRIMINAL, the fact that his mother was able to come to his aid and stop the attack makes her a hero.

We've all heard (or ever said) it before: When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

Now, I sincerely hope that if they can legally do so, the son and his girlfriend will arm and train themselves.

The nanny state police and prosecutor probably would like to send her to the chair for murdering that "poor miscreant youth" And just as he was turning his life around, no doubt.

You forgot he was being entrepreneurial!

In the litigious USA, Legal costs are high in any self defense case. Luke Sanchez, New Mexico: Luke now owes in excess of $20,000...and his case was dropped before going to trial. DA (politico) was swamped with petitions to drop the case.
