Everly is a product of a very broken home. His siblings , the justice system, and myself did everything in our power to get him to be a better person. So sad.

@cw – Your open contempt for the office of Sheriff will serve to perpetuate exactly the kind of delinquent behavior this article is about. If you have some issue that needs addressing to Sheriff Hall then you need to address that to him directly, face to face. When you post something like you said in open forum, everybody gets to read it. Those alleged bandits who committed this crime might think that you are on their side.

Just goes to show you need to know who your kid’s friends are (and who they bring into your house).

Through an employee, I’ve had to have contact with Mrs. Watson. She’s fair, she’s firm, she did/does her job. My employee may not have agreed with her, but not all rules are made to be broken. THat was over 10 years ago. This family (mom and pop) work for us. They serve us well. They did’nt deserve to have a couple of societal zits temporarily mess up their lives. They don’t deserve the sense of violation that comes with this kind of thing. I wish I still lived in Santa Rosa County and got called for jury duty in this case….. just sayin.

In defense of CW… I agree…My weapons are in a floor safe and the door has a secure coded lock. When I leave home….I lock up! It would take a good long time for someone to get to my weapons. Thats just the responsible thing to do. I feel terrible for the deputy and his family, but our officers need to be more cautious. Things are changing…to many drug attacks that have no fear or foresight.

It’s not good to happen anytime, no matter who you are. Good to hear that the men involved were quickly caught, and off the streets. Right know that is 2 more less to worry about.

differnt world when they see it again.

@ c.w.

Lt. Watson is not in any violation of Sheriff’s office policy for keeping his guns, ammo, vest, badges, ect. in his home. He actually is correct in not keeping it in his county car while away. Law enforcement officers often store their work related stuff in their homes, it is not feasible to leave everything at the sheriff’s office 1. because there is no where to store it, 2. the more important reason, if they get called out for an emergency then need it right then not an hour away depending on where you are in the county. I’m not a fan of Sheriff Hall at all but there is no action that should be by the Sheriff.

I’m glad they caught the sorry people that did this to Chris, Bonita, and their family. When someone attacks you at home it is a total violation, home is supposed to be safe. While Chris and Bonita know how these low life’s little minds work and know these two would never have the guts to confront either of them face to face (I’m pretty sure if they tried to break in while they were home Bonita would put a bullet in their rear before Chris would), their children have lost their sense of safety. I’m sure that bothers the Watsons more than anything. So instead of trying to say that some how this is Chris’s fault lay the blame where it belongs with the sorry people who did this.

Good luck Chris and Bonita you have the support of your family and friends! As for the bad guys I’m with Billy hang’em high, make an example out of them. Let other low lifes know it’s not ok to attack law enforcement officers and their families!
