Man shoots his girlfriend in the head but didn't tell her, she finds out a month later

A Georgia woman and her ex-boyfriend (Jerrontae Cain) were arguing in her car two years ago when her driver's side window shattered and she blacked out.

When she came to, she was in his car, not hers, and they went to his mother's house because she had a head wound. She thought she had been cut by flying glass.

For a month after the shooting in 2017, the woman stayed at Cain's mother's house, suffering through severe headaches, dealing with memory loss and having trouble when she tried to talk.

She went to the Doctor at Atlanta Medical Center where they found a bullet in the back of her skull, one that would have to remain there because trying to take it out could kill her

Police issued an arrest warrant but Jerrontae Cain was not caught until January 2019, more than a year later, when police showed up at a home where he hid in an attic during a two-hour standoff until he surrendered.

Thursday, a judge sentenced Cain, 39, to 25 years in prison for several crimes including aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and possession of a firearm by a felon. Cain had been convicted of felony sexual battery in 2010.

Jerrontae Cain

No brain, no pain.

 

[Compooky]

What kind of magical trick shot was this? In the same car and the shot came from outside. Unless she forgot the part when he left the vehicle on account of the bullet in her skull.

 

[FPrice]

Shouldn't this have been posted under zappa's "Don't You Just Hate It When..."?

 

[The5thDentist]

Damn. I still couldn't have predicted this, but should have.

 

[Lokdog]

Best named thread of all time. No doubt

 

[lowbuckbob]

Not tonight, I have a headache...

 

[radioman]

At least they threw the book at him.

 

[Knob Creek]

What kind of a name is "Jerrontae" anyway?

What kind of a name is "Jerrontae" anyway?

Well, .....
.......Never mind.

 

[Horrible]

I am sure some background check legislation would have prevented this

A salary cap name.

Sounds like a genuine Kennedy-style magic bullet!

 

[Glockster30]

Obviously, it had to be a 9MM bullet.

 

[boilermaker]

So what broke the window? Her head hitting the window from the force of the bullet?

 

[johnnymac101]

Last thing she remembers saying was something about... just the tip, honey!

 

[AHM]

Sounds like The Biscuit Bullet.
(Except for it being a real bullet).

Warning: that's a link to Snopes.

But it's worth clicking on it just for the satisfaction of
hitting the (x) on the popup that says "Snopes needs your help".

 

[enbloc]

I'll bet she has already promised to "Wait for him" till he gets out...

 

[whalerman69]

Obviously, it had to be a 9MM bullet.

For sure cause if it was a "fortey" she definitely would have gone to the hospital...

 

[citoriguy]

Au contraire - if it was a .40, the bullet would’ve bounced off the glass, she’d be fine, and he wouldn't be in jail.

No way! With the improvements in bullet technology today, the woman's whole body would have been split in twain by a .40.

 

[DW357]

A salary cap name.

 

[mikeyp]

Kinda like the morbidly obese women that on't know they're pregnant until they're about to give birth lol

 

[The5thDentist]

That would be 'fo-tay' to you.

 

[Broc]

If he used a shield, the story would read that he shot his boyfriend.

Cooked! Literally cooked, I tell you!

 

[general disorder]

If he had used a 45 her soul would have been DESTROYED!

In car arguing with EX boyfriend...
Man shoots GIRLFRIEND
Implying that her CURRENT boyfriend (outside the car) did the shooting
?

 

[Rehoboth Dave]

If he had used a 45 her soul would have been DESTROYED!

He couldn't have used a 45, her family remained completely unscathed.
