Just found out a former bully almost died and had most of his face burned off. My first thought was "Good." Am I a horrible person?
This guy and his brother terrorized my family. We were friends through Jr. High and the first part of high school then out of nowhere they singled me out and made my life and my family's life a living hell.
-
They drove by my house shooting out some of our windows with BB guns.
-
Him, his brother and 2 other friends of theirs, found me after school, cornered me and beat me up with sticks so I had to go to the hospital.
-
he pulled a gun on my mom.
-
ruined our car at the time. Slashed tires, broke windows...etc..
-
scared my mom into selling our house, moving us out of CA, pulling me out of high school and moving to Seattle taking me away from friends and a familiar school.
We had called the police, filed reports and such and since some of the stuff couldn't be proven (even though I saw them do it) I think he only ended up getting like 6 months in Juvi.
Anyways I just heard that like 10 years ago he tried stealing copper from some transistor (?) or something, it blew up in his face, and his face/arms/chest were all almost burnt off and he had to have a major skin graft from his legs to fix it. Anyways I just found out today and my first thought was "Good couldn't have happened to a nicer guy."
Am I an asshole for thinking this?
