Girl's Dad Whacks Naked Boy Found In Home

DELTONA, Fla. -- An angry Deltona father whacked his teenage daughter's boyfriend with a metal pipe after finding the boy naked in his daughter's room.

Authorities said Raul Colon, 45, didn't even know his daughter had a boyfriend or that the youngster had been sneaking into the home for more than a year.

When he heard noises coming from his daughter's bedroom Thursday morning and saw a stranger standing naked on the girl's bed, he swung a metal pipe. He then chased the teen out the front door and called police.

The boy was taken to the hospital where doctors closed a head wound with staples.

1. Big risks, big rewards

:D

[blueknight]

2. i would have done worse

it would not have been pretty

[Bob Dobbs]

3. I thought you meant the dad had killed him.

Using the "family" definition.

The kid got off easy, I'd say. If he's been getting lucky for over a year, then that's a pretty good trade off.

[lame54]

11. I thought it meant he joined in

[adamuu]

55. LOL

[sharp_stick]

4. Headline should read..

Father shows unbelievable level of restraint. Girls boyfriend lucky to be alive.

[rucky]

7. Spoken like a true father.

[Kalyke]

30. Amen!

I know my husband would do worse (and he's a former Army Ranger).

[rucky]

5. I thought it meant the other kind of "whack"

not THAT one, pervert!

the mafia kind.

[zanne]

36. A paddle "whack" would have been hilarious!

It wouldn't have put him in the hospital, but he wouldn't try getting into that girl's room again!

[EOTE]

6. Did they have to use the word 'whacks'?

It leaves a lot of room for ambiguity.

[Renew Deal]

17. I was thinking Soprano's

Which would be weird, but anything is possible.

[marmar]

8. Quite frankly, I'm shocked and saddened by some of these responses.....

..... There was a better way to deal with this.

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. Me too. Any way would have been better than hitting the kid in the head with a pipe.

:shrug:

[malaise]

24. I'm with you marmar

Now the daughter will simply sneak out. I'm curious about her age.

[Dogtown]

32. absolutely, marmar

like Dad never enjoyed any escapades when he was a youngster.

:eyes:

[jeepnstein]

45. Mess with the Bull, get the horn.

Our young stud surely knew there was an element of danger in sneaking into someone's house to have some sex. If he's scarred for life, so be it. That's part of growing up.

What was Dad supposed to do? Maybe he could have made them some hot cocoa after they were finished and counseled them on how to practice safe sex? Then he could have given the young lovers a gift certificate to a Holiday Inn Express? Nah, that's just not the way it works.

[Orsino]

48. We don't know the whole story...

...but if the father's was the only act of violence, my sympathy doesn't lie with him.

[slackmaster]

51. Yes, lots of better ways

I probably would have used a short sword.

[marmar]

58. How enlightened of you.

:eyes:

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

61. I agree he should have shot him.

Just kidding, I'd probably just have kneecapped him like Tanya Harding. Then held on to him till I figured out what was going on.

[malaise]

9. How old was the daughter? n/t

[Renew Deal]

19. 35

j/k

[malaise]

27. LOL not true

because then she was merely following dad's example. He had her at 12? :rofl:

[Orsino]

10. And the missing last line is...

"Colon was charged with aggravated battery on a child and bonded out on $10,000. "

This is the sort of violence resorted to by pinheads who think they own their daughters' hymens.

[SammyWinstonJack]

25. ...

:thumbsup: This is the sort of violence resorted to by pinheads who think they own their daughters' hymens.

[Lance_Boyle]

29. outrageous!

Naked stranger in the home? That's home invasion. Kid's lucky he didn't get shot (justifiably). The father may be charged, but he'll get off. Age of the perpetrator does not come into play when we're talking home invasion.

[originalpckelly]

35. "The father may be charged, but he'll get off..."

:rofl:

[Kalyke]

38. LOL...

:)

To many double entendres going on.

[originalpckelly]

40. Indeed.

:P

[Orsino]

46. It's not a "home invasion" if the daughter has a guest over.

And shooting is only justified in response to violence, or the threat thereof.

[tuckessee]

53. Home invasion? The guy was invited in by a resident.

Do you have any idea what a "home invasion" is and what constitutes legitimate use of deadly force?

[Kalyke]

33. Not really.

It's the parents' house and the children should live by the parents' rules. My mother would never let me have male sleep-overs when I was a teenager, nor should she have. However, she educated me on birth control and never felt it necessary to pretend to "own" my hymen.

The daughter lacks respect for her parents. The boyfriend lacks respect for both the parents AND the daughter by going along with this.

That said, I agree that the father should be charged with assault, but a jury will not convict him, particularly if he gets a jury chalked full of parents.

[Orsino]

47. Not really what?

A daughter not living by the parent's rules isn't an excuse for violence.

[Kalyke]

50. And, I didn't excuse him.

I said he should be charged.

But, I also said that I can understand the father's anger and outrage.

And, for good measure, I added that he will not be convicted on that charge because most parents would sympathize, should it go to trial. The prosecuter may already know this and plead him down, anyway.

[Orsino]

56. Then what, exactly, were you disagreeing with?

My suggestion that the father was reacting violently in part due to a sense of ownership?

[mmonk]

12. Whew. I thought you meant something else with the use of whack.

[Pepper32]

13. Bristol's dad should spend a day with this guy

maybe he could learn a few things :rofl:

[JeanGrey]

14. My dad would've done a lot worse!

He's lucky.

[TheCowsCameHome]

16. Shucks. I thought maybe this was from Wasilla.............

[Not Me]

18. The local blogs are running 90 percent for the father.

As reported this girl has been with the boy for 18 months and the father had no idea.
I'd say there's a real communication problem apparent in this house.

[JeanGrey]

22. Good luck getting a jury to convict this guy.

He's lucky to be alive

[wtmusic]

23. Fortunately the law doesn't take the neanderthal POV

"Colon was charged with aggravated battery on a child and bonded out on $10,000."

No way to deal with the problem

[jeepnstein]

43. No jury in the world will convict.

All Daddy has to say is he thought his daughter was in danger because he saw some unidentified, stark naked, male standing over her bed. It'll never make it past a grand jury and any prosecutor who takes a case like that is nuts.

[wtmusic]

49. If "no jury in the world will convict", he wouldn't have been charged

Any DA who files charges that can't make them stick is nuts.

[Dogtown]

34. could be

all his conversations end with pipe-whackings.

serious problem here if daughter was dating for 18 mos and Papa Didn't Preach.

[alittlelark]

20. For all the father knew, he was a stranger

attempting to rape her.

The story has almost no detail.

[slackmaster]

52. That's my reaction too - Not nearly enough detail

:nuke:

[TreasonousBastard]

21. Was the kid naked when he ran into the street?

Did the daughter get whacked, too?

How old were the kids?

(article was taking forever to load, but I really don't need the answers)

[Union Thug]

26. Yeah. the pipe was charitable.

[girl gone mad]

28. Sneaking in the teenage bf..

I remember those days.

Good times...

:)

[PVnRT]

31. While that's over-the-top

if I walked into my daughter's room (or any room of the house) and found some strange person in there, I wouldn't stop to offer him coffee.

[originalpckelly]

37. "I caught them two boys awhacking in my trailer again..."

Poor Mr. Anderson

[shadowknows69]

41. Hank Hill's lost twin brother!!

[originalpckelly]

42. Yep, I always thought that when I watched those shows/that movie...

[originalpckelly]

44. Just read up on it, and it turns out that they are based off of the same guy...

from Mr. Judge's youth! :P

[shadowknows69]

39. Yeah, that's probably about how I would have handled it

Which is why it's a good thing I don't have children.

[LanternWaste]

54. Seems a consensus on this topic is that...

Seems a consensus on this topic is that daughters should have sex at the guy's place, and never trust nor talk to their fathers about these issues lest her boyfriend gets a "merciful" beating.

[Renew Deal]

60. lol

:rofl:

[hunter]

57. Hitting a naked guy with a metal pipe? What courage! What manliness!

I'll bet his daughter's not going to be living in his house much longer now that she knows her dad's a big 'ol fearful weenie.

Somehow I doubt it would've taken most fathers of teenagers more than a split second to size up the situation. The boyfriend actually got off easy getting smacked in the head with a metal pipe. In my family, the poor kids would have had to endure a thoroughly embarrassing lecture about birth control and STD's, and it's unlikely the incident would have escaped the notice of various alert younger cousins and siblings either.

There's nothing quite like having a bratty eight year old cousin, at the worst possible moment, bursting out giggling and pointing and dancing about, "Hah hah, you guys were NAKED! You guys were NAKED!"

[dassix]

59. hmm...

Not enough information indeed...however, most people are familiar with Florida's some what new "self-defense" laws in place. The kid broke into the house knowing there was a chance he could be seen in an "intruder" like light from the father.

"...The Florida law, which served as a model for the others, gives people the right to use deadly force against intruders entering their homes. They no longer need to prove that they feared for their safety, only that the person they killed had intruded unlawfully and forcefully. The law also extends this principle to vehicles.
In addition, the law does away with an earlier requirement that a person attacked in a public place must retreat if possible. Now, that same person, in the law’s words, “has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force. The law also forbids the arrest, detention or prosecution of the people covered by the law, and it prohibits civil suits against them..."
