The Serafino ranch home, set back from a country road 2 miles from the Pennsylvania state line, erupted in gunfire before 2 a.m. as Getsy and an accomplice shot their way inside.

Charles Serafino, wounded in the arm, back, chest and mouth, decided to play dead.

“I’m thinking I’ve got to just lay here because if they shoot me again, I know I’m going to die,” he said in an interview. “As I did that, that’s when he hit my mom over the head.”

The blow with a revolver opened a 4-inch gash and probably was enough to kill Ann Serafino, who fell to the floor. At that point, according to prosecutors, Getsy stood over her and said, “Die, bitch,” and shot her twice.
