A man’s home is his castle and that was certainly the case for Brian Camp, when an unknown intruder broke into his home and attacked him while he, his girlfriend, and their children were sleeping.
The intruder turned out to be Johnathan Letendre, his girlfriend’s jealous ex-boyfriend.
Naked, unarmed, and asleep, Brian came up out of bed fighting for his life. He didn’t know who Johnathan was at the time or that he had brought a knife and pair of handcuffs when he broke into their apartment.
For twenty minutes, the two men fought hard, grappling, gouging, and swinging for the upper hand. Finally, Brian managed to find a gun and he shot his attacker. He then called 911 and went and checked on his family, when he saw Johnathan moving and shot him again, this time fatally.
Police charged Brian with the death. Although, it seemed like a clear case of self-defense, prosecutors said the second shot wasn’t necessary and tried him for manslaughter.
What would you do to protect your family and yourself in your own home?
Find out what the jury thought in the latest episode of the Gulf Coast Confidential podcast, “Boyfriend shot girlfriend’s jealous ex-boyfriend: Don’t F-A-F-O with Brian Camp.”
