Short version of this story: 2 San Diego county sheriff's deputies are shot, one in critical condition. Two eight year old girls molested. 

An excerpt about the suspect:

"The grandmother of the girls said one of them had complained in April at her school that she was being molested by her mother’s boyfriend. Child Protective Services investigated the complaint, the grandmother said, but no charges were filed.

Officials at Child Protective Services could not be reached for comment Tuesday night.

About one month ago, the grandmother said, her daughter had a physical fight with her boyfriend, and Witczak had choked her. He was arrested, but charges were not filed, the grandmother said.

The arrest, combined with poor work habits, got Witczak fired from his mechanic’s job at AMP Automotive in Santee, according to a co-worker and the grandmother.

The girlfriend said her boyfriend kept a shotgun and at least a couple of handguns in the apartment. She said he likes to go camping and hunting.

She also said he had a history of drug and alcohol abuse but had been clean for the past two weeks."

THIS is why you GET OUT IMMEDIATELY.
