Vibe.com: Sierra Tarbutton pleaded guilty to criminal mischief and deadly conduct charges...for firing...a gun out of a car window...

Tarbutton...fired...out of the passenger side window...(as)...Michael Cuellar...drove...(In addition), Cuellar... shot...out of his window while driving...

Good thing the cops pulled over those idiots before a stray bullet struck someone. But wait -- if the cops knew they were pursuing a car from which people were firing bullets, wouldn't they have reacted a little more, shall we say, comprehensively?



So exactly how did "Bonnie and Clyde" get caught?

Tarbutton was recorded by...Cuellar...as she recklessly fired the weapon...(and) Cuellar record(ed) himself shooting...while driving...

Tarbutton...upload(ed) the footage to Snapchat...(where it) went viral...

Tarbutton later explained...“We were drinking at the time and were riding around, shooting in the air...” An attorney for Tarbutton maintained that her target was “abandoned buildings...”

Disgraceful, of course -- but this sort of thing CAN happen when teenagers, liquor, and guns get together. Since there were no human casualties, however, and since I was a mischievous teenager in my own right, I could give them a second chance if they have no prior criminal records: something like probation with community service, counseling, a curfew, a no-contact order, perhaps some drug testing, and definitely no driving or gun ownership privileges. But wait -- since they are mentioned by name in the news stories, that means they AREN'T teenagers...

Click2Houston.com: Tarbutton, 27, pleaded guilty to deadly conduct and criminal mischief charges and was sentenced to five years behind bars...Tarbutton was already serving six years deferred adjudication for harassing a police officer and threatening an officer’s children in 2015...

Vibe: Cuellar, 29...turned himself in to authorities...also on charges of criminal mischief and deadly conduct...

Oh -- I was off by about fifteen years.

Click2Houston.com: "Thanks to some really good police work, we were able to identify a suspect," said (the)...police chief...

Cut the comedy, chief -- thanks to some really good self-snitching, the suspects were able to identify themselves!
