Yellow Jacket Case is a privately owned consumer electronics accessory company located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Founded in 2011, the Yellow Jacket case was invented by former military police officer Seth Froom[2] in response to being robbed at gun-point in his own home.[3] The Yellow Jacket case is a smart phone case that houses a 650,000V Stun-gun.[4] After raising over $100k on crowd-funding platform Indiegogo,[5] Yellow Jacket units are scheduled to ship in November 2012.[6] Yellow Jacket, a tenant of the Student Incubator at the Louisiana Business Technology Center, was a prize winner of the Venture Challenge business plan competition.[7]
