Ooops! I Shot My Wife And Dog

Orlando, Florida–RadioRadio reviews
personality Shannon Burke, host of The Shannon Burke Show on Real Radio 104.1 WTKS was either pissed off at his wife’s dog, pissed off at her, or a combination of both last Thursday evening when he picked up a gun and started waving it around, threatening the dog. Well, guess what? He didn’t realize the gun was loaded. Now his wife is in the hospital and her dog may lose a leg.

Shannon Burke
At some point that evening, Burke grabbed a .40 cailber gun, grabbed the dog, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, aimed, and BANG! The bullet passed through the dog’s leg and then grazed the head of his 48-year-old wife, Catherine . ‘I was playing with a gun. I didn’t know it was loaded. It went off and I’ve hit my wife in the head. She’sShe reviews
all right. It just cut her skin and she’s bleeding really bad,’ Burke said in his call to 911. Idiot.
Shannon Burke, 43, does not have a criminal history, but was on probation for a previous alcohol-related reckless driving charge. He is now facing charges of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and animal cruelty. Bail was set at $10,000 and Burke will have to wear monitoring device upon release. He has been ordered to have no contact with his wife.

Rule #1 – Guys don’t “play” with guns
Rule 32 – I didn’t know it was loaded
Now we need to hear her side of the story. Dumbass x10.

What a fcking tool!

She’s alright but she’s bleeding really bad, hurry,hurry hurry, hurry?
It’s IN the head but it just cut her skin?
Sounds like he’s trying to cover up his shit …

At least he did call for help. Some would have finished her up and tried to play a long term lie. Hee reminds me of Danny Bonaduche in a lot of ways.

This is why I’m against gun ownership. There are plenty of intelligent and rational people who are perfectly capable of owning guns.. However, allowing those people to own guns means that every stupid, alcoholic, ass hole has a right to bear arms.
You always pretend like the gun is loaded. I don’t care if you literally just ejected the clip and popped the round out of the chamber. You have to respect it to keep shit like this from happening. And it should never happen. This is criminally stupid.
I feel terrible for the dog. His wife was stupid for hanging around when he picked it up (probably after a couple of beers), but the dog couldn’t do anything.

Shannon Burke, you have the perfect face for radio. What an ugly mug on that guy. He looks like a real dick and he acts like one too. Did you feel like a big man when you shot a dog in the leg and almost killed your wife? I bet you aren’t sorry that the wife almost took a hit to the head but I do bet you’re sorry the dog lived. Please point it at your own head next time, dumbass.

He didn’t realize it was loaded? Was that after shooting the dog or after shooting his wife in the head? The aggravated battery charge is crap! You point a gun at someone and they are shot in the head, the charge should be attempted murder. But since he didn’t realize the gun was loaded……….I call BULLCRAP!

Just another “mean drunk”. Some people are really nice and sociable when they are sober… but, after a few drinks, they are just another Shannon Burke. I’ve known a few like that in my lifetime… just stay away from them.

Way to show your Toughness, Shannon Burke!! AssHat!!
Hopefully, the DA wil see fit to take away your right to possess a gun!!!
And a wife!!! And your beloved dog!!!
Did anyone else notice Shannons maibox being bashed, looks like hate mail to me!!!
I pray the Mrs. wakes up and smells the coffee, so we are not reading about her on here again and that the dog recuperates fully, no losing the leg!!

What a moron. The face, doesn’t help him either…

Glad he was fired. I was just thinking about how he was going to tell “his side of the story” on the air. He seems like a big enough douche to do something uncouth like that.

Hmmm, can’t blame the gun. I happen to be a gun owner. Not really by choice, but because I have to. But honestly, blaming the gun? Nah, lets blame the drunk moron for waving around a loaded gun.
You always treat it as if it’s loaded, even if KNOW it’s not. You never wave it around, point it at anyone unless you are planning to shoot. Period.

Committed? She should be. She is clearly certifiable……
