You make the call. Deputies: Homeowner arrested after shooting intruder in shower
BELFAIR, Wash. - A homeowner was arrested Saturday morning after he shot and killed an intruder who was taking a shower in his home, Mason County Sheriff's deputies said.
Mason County Coroner Wes Stockwell identified the man who was killed as Nathaniel Joseph Rosa, 31, of Bothell.
The homeowner owns two pieces of property that sit next to each other along East Trails Road. One has a house that he lives in. He runs an internet-based business out of a home on the other piece of property, which is where the shooting occurred, deputies said.
The deadly confrontation happened just before 8 A.M. Saturday when the owner arrived to do some work for his business, deputies said. He noticed a window screen out in the yard, and someone had forced open the front door.
The man went inside and confronted another man he found in his shower, deputies said. The homeowner left after the two exchanged words.
"He returned home. retrieved a firearm, came back over to the residence and fired multiple rounds into the shower... killing the intruder," said Mason County Sheriff's Lt. Travis Adams.
The homeowner called 9-1-1 and told dispatchers that he had just shot & killed an intruder, Adams said.
It’s not clear how long Rosa had been inside the home, but detectives don’t believe the homeowner gave him any warnings before he fired his gun, they said.
Deputies later arrested the homeowner for 2nd degree murder. They believe he had ample time to call for help when he went back home.
"Certainly he had an opportunity to call law enforcement at that time," Adams said. "And we’ve contacted our local prosecutor, explained the circumstances to him, and he agrees that 2nd degree murder was an appropriate charge in this case."
Investigators said the homeowner is cooperating with detectives. Detectives don’t believe Rosa was armed when he was killed, they said.

He should have had his weapon when he first found him, even then he needs to justify under Wash. S/D law...
"allows a person to use reasonable force to defend themselves when they are being attacked or have a reasonable belief that they are about to be attacked."

Kinda hard to say your life was in danger when you're able to leave and come back.

Left to get his gun, and returned to shoot the guy while he was still in the shower?
Was the owner afraid the hot water bill was going to kill him?

Based on the report, this one is easy.
"He returned home. retrieved a firearm, came back over to the residence and fired multiple rounds into the shower... killing the intruder," said Mason County Sheriff's Lt. Travis Adams.

If he had a confrontation with with the guy. Left the premises to get his firearm came back and the guy was still there I would have shot him dead to.
He had his warning with the first confrontation.
What right did the guy have breaking and entering into a home that was not his in the first place.
Nuff Said.

He should have at least waited until the guy finished his shower. It's the neighborly thing to do.

Nuff Said. I think you are bluffing. I have been robbed twice. I was not home ether time. When it comes to my Family and my property I will shoot first and ask question later. And in Communist Mexifornia that surly would mean I would be locked up for a long time. Been close to being locked up for protecting my family two times in the past. No bluffing with me when it comes to my Family, Neighbors or my Property.

I want to know who breaks into a home to take a shower?
The shooter is definitely in hot water. He left to retrieve a gun - i.e. successfully retreated out of harm's way so no immediate threat - and then returned to shoot the guy. He's lucky he wasn't charged with premeditated murder. He probably shouldn't have said anything to the police instead of coming clean like he did, hopefully he has a slippery lawyer.
Now if he had only used a butcher knife instead of a gun he could have claimed he was Psycho...
I'm just hoping he didn't say anything really stupid to the victim before shooting, like "it's shower curtains for you..."
If only the victim had used the opportunity to get out of the house, he could have made a clean getaway...
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

Kinda hard to say your life was in danger when you're able to leave and come back. This. You have no duty to retreat, but he did retreat and then returned. He's a dumbass. Go get your gun and call the police and stay in your primary domicile.
