[IBTIMES.CO.UK] An Oklahoma woman has been tossed in the slammer... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not... on suspicion of shooting a 31-year-old man who she found in the bedroom of her teenage daughter. Valerie Fowler, 34, is accused of assault with a deadly weapon following a shooting at her home in Paoli in Garvin County. Police said they received two calls relating to a shooting at about 7.20am (1.20pm BST) on 29 August. When officers arrived at the scene, they found a 31-year-old man with gunshot wounds nearby. He was taken to a hospital by air ambulance with non-life threatening injuries. According to Koko Oklahoma City, the man, who has not been identified, would visit her the teenage girl at least three times a week after her mother left for work. Following a search of the address, officers found a gun believed to have been used in the shooting. A spokesperson from the Garvin County County Sheriff's Office said: "The Garvin County 911 Center received two separate calls this morning related to a possible shooting in Paoli. The calls were received at 7.20 a.m. Members of the Garvin County Sheriff's Office and Paoli Police Chief Mike Lewis responded with the assistance of Pauls Valley Police Department. |

| #10 #2, they were kissing on the bed apparently, from what I've read elsewhere. Basically making out. Passionately I assume. That she shot him in the leg was restraint, it should be commended. Also, good luck finding a jury to convict this woman. Maybe in Rotherham. |

| #8 Basically, the age of consent in Oklahoma is 16. A close-in-age exemption applies if the minor was over the age of 14 and the actor was age 18 or younger. |

| #7 Sneaking into my home to sexually assault my kid, damn right I'd be pissed. Home intruder. Sexual assault. I would insist on a toxicology. And if were reversed, I already know enough about the woman to know she had to sneak around, and I would check around to see what valuables are missing. There is a serious meth problem, and this plinkos right into the hole. |

| #5 Can 'my son' get pregnant? Carry it further, if it was an adult 31 year old male with 'my son', would I not shoot the intruder? |

| #2 If I came home and found a stranger in my house let alone in my daughters bedroom, I have a 9mm Walther on me. I carry it because of the work I do. An underage daughter with a strange man in her bedroom ( one of the details they fail to mention is what were the couple doing when the parent came home and found them there)? I wouldn't hesitate to shoot a man in my house in bed with my underage daughter. Too bad all the way round. And I would take my chances on charges, wouldn't slow me down at all. |

| #1 He may have been a statutory rapist, he may have been the shooter's boyfriend. We're missing some detail. |
