The David Watson Podcast #205 Sutherland Springs Church shooting and the man who shot Devin Kelley

On November 5, 2017, Devin Kelley shot and killed 26 people and wounded 22 others at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, United States. Kelley was subsequently shot and wounded, then killed himself.

It is the deadliest mass shooting in Texas history and the deadliest at an American place of worship, surpassing the Charleston church shooting of 2015.

Kelley was then confronted by and traded fire with Stephen Willeford, a local resident and former firearms instructor who was armed with an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle.

Willeford had taken cover behind a truck across the street from the church and shot Kelley twice, once in the leg and once in the upper left torso under his tactical gear.

From that day onwards Stephen became the Barefoot Defender, and on this episode he tells me why.
