i am sure this guy picked their house at random, and had no reason to think there could be drugs or money there. 
Daily Mail:
A 21-year-old woman shot and killed an armed burglar after he kicked her door down and shot her husband while demanding drugs.
Jamie Franklin, of Knoxville, Tennessee, fatally shot Joshua Dexter Watson, 24, after he and an accomplice charged into her home and demanded drugs and money.
Franklin's husband Jonathan was shot in the struggle before Mrs Franklin shot Watson, with the second robber fleeing on foot.
Knoxville police officers are still pursuing the second man, who is not believed to have been injured.
The dramatic standoff occurred on Monday evening at the Franklins' home on 210 Colonial Drive when Watson and another man knocked and 'then kicked in the door'.
'During the fight, the suspects were demanding at first drugs and then money from the victims,' said Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk.
Jonathan Franklin was shot in the struggle - officers declined to say where on the body he had been hit - and has since been admitted to the University of Tennessee Medical Center with what police termed non-life-threatening injuries.
After her husband was shot, Jamie Franklin leapt to the defence of her home with the family's .357 caliber revolver and 'fired several rounds, striking one suspect more than once in the upper body'.
Watson was found dead from multiple gunshot wounds at the scene while police have released information about the suspect still at large.
He is described as white, in his early 20s, about 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-10 with a very thin build, black hair and armed with a handgun.
With a second suspect still on the loose, DeBusk declined to state whether the Franklins knew the home invaders or if both of the men were armed when they burst into the property.
Watson had a lengthy criminal record prior to his death, having faced a charge of aggravated robbery in 2004 before he turned 18.
He had later amassed a long rap sheet of charges, including drug possession, theft, evading arrest, reckless driving and violation of probation for the aggravated robbery conviction, according to police records.
The shootings were the sixth incident of gunfire during a home robbery in the last five months in South Knox County.
nice place.
and dead druggie.
and other guy who has been caught.
