Was This Shooting Victim a 'Trendy Woman'?

Yes, if you posit that women are consistently part of a trend where women are victims of gun violence...

From the Colorado Springs Gazette, the local news where this happened:

The Fountain house where police suspect a man shot his girlfriend and killed their child before committing suicide was doused with gasoline, Fountain police said Tuesday.

Fountain police Chief Todd Evans confirmed that Gammall Perez and his son, Gavin, were found dead inside the house in the 7900 block of Gate Post Lane after a tense, six-hour standoff on Monday.
Police are investigating their deaths as a murder-suicide, said Fountain police Cmdr. Mike Haley.
The woman who was shot, Shannon Paolini, remained in critical condition Tuesday.
The incident began at 2:24 p.m. Monday, when police received a 911 report of a disturbance from a woman inside the house.
When officers arrived, they began talking to a man inside the house as they stood behind their cruiser with their guns drawn, said neighbor Robyn Kippen.
During the exchange, the man said his wife and 2-year-old were in the house with him.
When the officers left the front of the house to re-group with other officers stationed around the block, a woman bolted from the house and was shot three times by a man chasing her, said Tiffany LaGuardia, a neighbor who drove up on the commotion.
Evans said the two officers “were going down to coordinate with them so they could all move up together.”
LaGuardia called 911 as Paolini collapsed at LaGuardia’s passenger-side door.
Paolini, an El Paso County Sheriff’s Office employee, underwent surgery Monday at an area hospital. She was “fighting for her life,” according to a release by the sheriff’s office.
“He came out shooting her,” LaGuardia said. “He came chasing her down, gunned her down.”
Police spent the night scouring a massive crime scene — which spanned at least 75 yards outside the house — for clues as to why the shooting took place.
Investigators found several bullet holes in a residence five houses down from where the murder-suicide took place. Fans were brought in to air-out Paolini’s house, as gasoline had been poured across the residence, Evans said.
“Ugly, ugly scene,” Evans said.
Police are awaiting autopsy results from the El Paso County Coroner’s Office, which will determine an official cause and manner of death.
Perez and Paolini had Gavin together, though the two were not married, Evans said.
On his Facebook page, Perez listed his employer RGIS, an inventory services firm. His page also says he was a graduate of Fountain-Fort Carson High School and that he attended Michigan State University.
Paolini owned the house, according to the El Paso County Assessor’s Office. She has served as a financial services specialist with the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office since August 2007, the agency said Tuesday.
“She is never seen at work without a smile,” said a release by the sheriff’s office. ”Shannon’s greatest joy is her son and her family.”

I'm betting this woman who has been critically injured, who lost her son, who nearly had her house burned down would feel MORE free if this man did not have a gun, 2nd Amendment Rights notwithstanding.

Note the distance at which bullets were found from this shooting, btw....
