I wonder if he’s a member of that Aryan gang they were talking about.

“An autopsy to determine the cause and manner of death is scheduled for Wednesday.”

Sounds like suicide to me.

Definitely doesn’t sound like he mistook where he was because he was too intoxicated.

No mention of the "intruder" being armed.

Using lethal force on an unarmed victim outside of the home, eh?
A private citizen would be in serious trouble. Let's see what happens when a LEO and a DA try and justify.

Oh, you are right. Sorry. I didn’t see that in this article. Another article says he broke in, there was an altercation, and he was killed.

He did come into the house, sorry again. So yeah, this might be justified, even if it is outside the house. Protecting your life.

If this happened in Michigan, what does the Colorado Dept of Investigations have to do with the situation?

Witnesses, evidence, circumstances, facts.

Not enough info in the article to conclude whether it was justified.

Travon was unarmed and in the open, but as more facts come out, the more I believe Zimmerman acted in self-defense.

It could be the same here, but I need more data. How many shots? From afar, or at close range? Was the victim armed? With what? Did he shoot? How about the defenders' wounds? Minor or serious? Defensive wounds, or something else? Did anyone witness the break-in, the fight inside, or the final encounter outside?

I haven't made up my mind yet, but I feel like the article writer has. The tone of the article says the victim was a madman and the cop and his wife were defending themselves. Based on the lack of facts, I'm not ready to say that.

I guess all that freedom to smoke marijuana in CO is causing the dopers to go to a prosecutor’s house and commit suicide.

By referring to the deceased as "the victim" you're indicating he was an innocent party rather than the perp who died during the commission of a felony.

I think the homeowners will be found to be the victims.

“The guy just wanted a room.”

This is EXACTLY why I make reservations.
