Oklahoma Accidental Shooter to Enter 'Not Guilty' Plea


The Lawton man charged for shooting his friend's eye out after a marijuana session has waived his preliminary hearing.
A formal arraignment has been scheduled for Tyrel Whately on Jan. 9 where his lawyer said he will enter a plea of "not guilty."
Back in October, police say Whatley was pretending his friend, Mark Camacho Ramos, was a zombie after the two had smoked marijuana. We're told Whatley pointed a gun at him as a joke when the gun went off. Whatley claims he panicked, destroyed the drugs and buried the gun in the backyard. Ramos later lost his eye as a result.

  1. This is an example of the sort of thing that should be prosecuted. If you are under the influence, any stupid action while in that state is your fault.

    1. Just the other day you said alcohol and guns can be used together safely. Do you always change your positions in one day?

    2. "Under the influence," can be after one or two of your home-brew beers, Greg. How many holes have you got in the floor and walls of your home?

    3. Zero, Mikeb. Will you stop with the simplistic thinking? What you're claiming here is that no gun owner should ever drink alcohol. That's idiotic. You apparently believe that one drink makes a person suddenly become irrational and immediately start playing with guns.

      Anonymous, you're lying. You have an opportunity to prove otherwise by providing a URL to the actual comment, but you can't, because I didn't say that.

    4. Fuck your cowardly URL crap. Your insane comment is there for all to read. You said drinking WHILE using guns is fine. What a lying cowardly criminal.

    5. He pointed the gun at him and shot. Intentional. Big surprise he didn't know the gun was loaded, didn't even check. This is why gun loon thinking like Greg's is responsible for 30,000 gun shot deaths a year.

    6. Did you read my original comment? I said he should be prosecuted for his stupidity.

    7. Greg, what I'm saying is that any gun owner who drinks alcohol cannot be a responsible gun owner. Being responsible is like being pregnant or being honest, either you are or you're not.

    8. Mikeb, add that to your long list of absurd statements. A person can own guns and drink alcohol without being irresponsible. Your simplistic demands and beliefs will never convince a rational person.

    9. Yes I did, and your original comment flies in the face of your guns and alcohol mix fine comment from the other day. So you contradict yourself. I mean, you lied.

  2. I actually know the victim. The gun didn't belong to the man who fired the shot. Many others besides the two were playing around with guns there. It was a very sad situation. Instead of suing the shooter though, the other dude is going after the insurance of the homeowner whose home they were in.
