UPDATE: Woman says intruder who was killed was drunk, not violent
UPDATE: Deputies saying little about stranger shot in home
Homeowner shoots and kills alleged intruder passed out on couch
The Sutherlin man who shot and killed an intruder found in his house in the middle of the night, claims it was self defense.


Court documents show thirty-four year old Keith Cramer admitted shooting thirty-five year old Michael Smith last Thursday.


Cramer's wife, Christy, found Smith passed out on their couch in the middle of the night. She called police, and then went to a local bar to pick up her husband.


The Cramers arrived back at their house before police arrived. Court records indicate the homeowner shot Smith, after Smith beat him up.




So how did it go down, really sounds fishy now. Like when did Smith beat up Cramers, At the Bar or after Cramers woke him up.

Sutherlin only has a few places to drink, not that big of town.

    I think its a murder cover-up. He probably made a pass at the wife at the bar, they lured him home and killed him.

    I posted another story on this incident a few days back.
    The dead guy and the shooter had both been drinking that night at the same bar.
    The woman saw the guy passed out on her couch. She got her daughter and went to the bar to get her husband.
    She came back home, the guy was still passed out on the couch, and then she made the first call into 911.
    Her husband came home and shot the guy with a deer rifle.

    Fishy, fishy
