so this is a story of a bunch of dumb teenagers being tormented in the deep woods I was an 18 year old high school senior I had moved that year and switched to a school about 30 minutes away from where I used to go I stayed in touch with a few people from my old school and got invited to go camping with a few of them over Memorial weekend I invited two girls and one guy from my new school to come hang out for a night and met them in the closest town from the campsite about 40 minutes away the guy Jeremy hopped in my car and the girls followed me to the campsite without incident this campsite was 30 minutes away from any human signs of life outside of a shitty dirt road the night started off fine with everyone getting completely drunk and me beating one of the girls I brought named Sara at beer pong she was very drunken all over me at about 12:30 things started to die down as half of us had already puked and were heading in for the night a lot of the night is still a blur but I remember climbing into a tent with five of us in it three guys and two girls at around 2:30 a.m. I awoke by the sound of a shotgun cock I was still very drunk and had a hard time processing anything but in my drunken state I figured it was one of the people I was camping with being a dick one of the guys Brent had stayed sober the entire night and had brought his shotgun up with him I figured it was him being a prick to everyone who was drunk I checked my phone and go back to sleep it was around 3 a.m. when I woke again by the sound of someone bawling their eyes out I was still having a very hard time processing anything after about 5 minutes I realized it was Brent Jeremy and I walk out and see Brent is bleeding profusely from his nose and mouth I run over to him stumbling the entire time out of nowhere I'm hit in the head with a rock and knocked unconscious everything from this point forward is from Jamie's point of view to this day Jeremy is my best friend and has told me his version of the story many times he says I passed by a tree when a large man lunged out and smashed my face with a rock after hitting me the men lunged that German attacked him straight to the ground Jeremy described the man is at least six for him 280 pounds Jeremy was being choked to death by this wooden monster of a man when he hears another gunshot from a pistol Sarah had managed to find a pistol brent had also brought with him and fired a shot missing the man completely this startled him and he sprinted off into the woods we booked it out of there Jeremy drove me and Brent to the hospital I had three broken teeth and a severe concussion Brent had part of his tongue cut with a knife and a broken nose as well prince has never talked to me or any of my friends from that trip about what exactly happened when he was outside alone with the man and refused to give the police much of a description the man was never caught and I have never been in the deep forest ever again okay a little backstory this was around 1992 1993 I was 18 just graduated from high school and recently got married to my ex-husband yeah I know dumb as hell but that's a whole other story anyways I was working at a convenience store one that specializes in ice cream as its main focus I worked my way up from ice cream clerk to assistant manager I had started my shift at 3 p.m. and had to close the store at midnight but typically didn't finish till 1:00 1:30 a.m. I had papers to fill cleans dock etc the clerk that was supposed to close with me had an emergency so I was stuck doing the whole shift by myself at about 8 p.m. the customer started slowing down so I was able to do some of my work a few minutes passed and this man stumbled in going straight to the beer cave I could smell the alcohol on him as he walked by me he was about 6 foot 3 and dressed in a tuxedo I made some small talk with him as it was just he and I in the store he told me he was at a wedding reception down the road and they ran out of beer I made my way to the register and waited I knew I had to refuse the sale because he was already inebriated the guy gets to the register and places the alcohol on the counter I grabbed the cases and put them behind the counter I said to the man I'm sorry sir but I can't tell you this as you seem to be very intoxicated within seconds he started swinging yelling and threatening me that he was going to hurt and torture me towards the end of the rant one of my regulars walked in and the crazy drunk man abruptly left my store as he was walking out he said very loudly I'll see you when you close the store bitch I call the police right away and the customer that walked in stayed with me until the Sheriff's Office arrived they took a report and looked at the video footage noting the car model and what the guy looked like towards the end of the night I started closing down the place when I notice a car pull into the lot staying at the far end running but lights off I keep on mopping not paying attention to the car I go to take the trash out lock the door behind me and realize the car is still there I could now see it worthless capito man from earlier I was completely terrified I threw the garbage into the dumpster and ran back to the store locking the door behind me I went to the back called the sheriff's office and told them that the guy was outside with his car running the police arrived back within minutes I stood in the store watching them approaches car get him out of the car and slap the cuffs on him he told the police that he was mad at me and was gonna take care of me they searched his car and found duct tape zip ties a loaded gun and a shovel the police told me later that he was beyond drunk this story didn't leave my mind for weeks following the incident my manager made sure there were at least two people on at all times and to this day I have no idea what happened to the guy after the arrest
