Woman with Baseball Bat Pummels Sex Offender

(Puyallup, Washington) Police handed out flyers at the River Road RV Park notifying the residents of registered sex offenders in the area. Local mother, Tammy Lee Gibson, recognized one person listed, 24-year-old William Allen Baldwin, grabbed an aluminum baseball bat and went to his RV to administer a beating.

Baldwin is 7-foot-3 and weighs 245 pounds, but police say that didn't stop Gibson from coming to his RV and beating him repeatedly with an aluminum baseball bat.

"I kept swinging and swinging and swinging," she later told police.

Gibson told friends that Baldwin had assaulted her child, but police say the accusation is unfounded.

Baldwin is in jail for failing to register as a Level 3 sex offender. Gibson faces charges for beating him.

I think we will see more and more instances of altercations between ordinary citizens and sex offenders as notifications become more common.
