Shoot Me If You’re My Friend

Monday, May 9th, 2005 • Filed under Other

John Beaver, a clothing storeowner in Rochester, New York, admitted to being a part of a fake robbery in 1994. He asked his friend Christopher Pelton to shoot him in the arm, but due to the other’s bad aim he suffered a chest wound. He survived, but his girlfriend turned him in.

    The gentleman’s name was Christopher Delton, not Pelton and he wasn’t a friend, he was an ex employee of the store who threatened me to comply, or else.

    Actually the person who shot him IS Christopher pelton. I know him AND his family and he is a convicted felon for armed robbery and severed 6 months in jail. No nerd to lie John beaver
