Meet The Man That Shot And Killed A Guy Then Went Directly To The Strip Club To Get His Head Straight

BSO- A shooter killed a man, then took a trip to a strip club to take his mind off the murder, according to a Riviera Beach Police arrest report.

But some strangers giving him a ride home from the club phoned police after he told them he killed someone earlier that day, police said.

The caller and two other men in the car told police that Chavers, whom they didn’t know, asked them for a ride after getting kicked out of Sugar Daddy’s, an adult cabaret business in West Palm Beach.

Police used witness statements and surveillance video to link Rodney Chavers, 41, of Riviera Beach, to the killing of Tarrie Wilder, 42. Chavers was arrested Monday on a second-degree murder charge.

“Mr. Chavers stated that he just shot someone earlier today. Mr. Chavers further explained that a subject punched him in the face and that he shot and killed him for doing so,” a detective wrote in the report, based on the man’s statement.

After telling the men about the killing, Chavers explained he went to the strip club to “get his mind off of what happened,” according to the report.


Here are the facts. I don't know the deceased and you don't know the deceased. So while I don't endorse murder, if you know a man well enough to punch him in the face, then you should probably know him well enough to know that he's not afraid to pull a gun on you. That's why I refuse to view this story as anything less than hysterical, but as hysterical as it is, it's also kind of predictable, no?

Never killed a man, but I certainly wouldn't know where to go after if I did. You can't go home. You're not going to go to a friend's place. I suppose you could go to the bar, but that's far too cliche for me, and apparently it is far too cliche for Rodney Chavers. With all those options off the table, why not go to a strip club? No better way to get a felony off your mind then by going to a place that will send all your blood flowing to an area of your body that has never encountered the feeling of shame. I bet by the second lap dance this guy had already forgotten that he completely overreacted to a fist fight and took another man's life, and that's what his main goal was in the first place.

If anything, this story just did a complete disservice to everyone out there that temporarily solves their problems by having exhibitionists with daddy issues violently grind on their dick. Where are all the homicidal maniacs going to go now? The mall? Do a little Christmas shopping for those people in their life that they haven't savagely murdered yet? Maybe grab a bite to eat and wash away the taste of guilt and regret? Those choices sound terrible. A strip club should be a safe zone for people that just committed horrendous crimes. Let them squeeze in one last night of people bending over backwards for them, before they are bending over backwards for others. It's only fair. Sure, this guy killed someone, but at least he was honest enough to admit it to people after. He just want to blow one more premature nut into his favorite pair of jeans before he did. I am not even sure we need to put him behind bars and waste the space in our prisons. All things considered, he seems like a standup guy. Plus the conditions of that titty bar look far worse than any jail cell I have ever seen on TV.
