Which is why I went to Glocks... SCD for peace of mind.
...or a hammer (Sig, Beretta, CZ), or a thumb safety (1911, M&P), or at least a long DA first shot (various). Of course, none of these are idiot-proof, but at least they're idiot-resistant.
The folks I know who use AIWB slowly look their guns into the holster. To quote someone, it's not the odds, it's the stakes!
I hate "reports" like the one who wrote this article.
CLARIFY! The DEAD person was one of the criminal SCUMBAGS. Say it already. So we can all cheer.

Illinois man, 48, is convicted in booby-trap shotgun killing
An Illinois man who had a shotgun booby-trap that killed a neighbor last year was convicted on Thursday of murder and another charge, according to media reports.Prosecutors said Wasmund rigged the shotgun to a rope connected to the door of a shed on his property so the weapon would fire when the door was opened. The discharge killed Spicer as he tried to enter the shed, authorities said. A man who lived nearby found Spicer's body on Wasmund's property on Sept. 16, 2018,
Wasmund's defense attorneys said their client had complained of thefts on his property and suggested Spicer was there to steal. Lawyer Thomas Mansfield argued Spicer caused his own death by ignoring "no trespassing" and "do not enter" signs and breaking the lock on the shed door, he said.
Special Prosecutor Matt Goetten said it didn't matter why Wasmund set the gun to fire, only that he did so -- something that ultimately cost Spicer his life.

Glad the good guys prevailed.
There's nothing civil about this war.
