The DA, Robert Shuler Smith, has charged Parish with first degree murder, five months after the police determined it was self defense. Smith made the charges without seeing the video of the event.

DA Smith is under felony indictment himself.

People in Jackson, MS, elect very bad people to , or is there an exception?

[BenLurkin]

Misleading headline.

[Mark17]

DA Smith is under felony indictment himself.

Is this like another Duke lacrosse type indictment?

[marktwain]

Misleading headline.

Yes. I would have gone with something like:

Troubled DA Ignores Video Evidence, Charges Man in Self Defense Case

[upchuck]

After reading the entire article and watching the video, BUMP to Wayne Parrish.

This is what happens when identity politics elects a scumbag DA. I’ve seen a milder version of this locally. It has recently gotten much better.

I have a feeling Mr Parish is going to be a very wealthy man.

I remember the video, open and shut justified use of force.

[Eagles6]

I looked up the DA’s bio. His picture answers the question as to why Mr Parish is being prosecuted.

[marktwain]

Prosecutors have some of the strongest immuities ever invented by the Supreme Court.

I bet that Mr. Parish gets nothing but out of pocket expenses.

All states need to adopt a version of Washington State’s law.

If a prosecution against a self defense case fails, the State has to pay the attorney fees of the defendant.

[marktwain]

To be clear, I mean Mr. Parish will have to pay his own expenses.

[Eagles6]

I would think that he would have a federal civil rights case but I’m not an attorney. Momma raised me better.

[NautiNurse]

Robert Shuler Smith is accused in a six-count affidavit of providing information to assist criminal defendants.

[rednesss]

If only Parish had had a shiny object on his chest that imbues the wearer with special rights.

[Gay State Conservative]

After having watched the video I hope this prosecutor finds himself behind bars for filing this case.Absolutely nauseating.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

#2: "People in Jackson, MS, elect very bad people to , or is there an exception?"

Given the demographics of Jackson and the delta in general, it would not be my choice for a jury pool. In fairness, many some of them are decent, church going and hard working.

[lurk]

So sorry for the legal troubles of the man who defended his property, but it does appear that the case against him has a short life span in front of it.

The DA appears to be about to follow Mr Nifong down the road to a less distinguished career.

[DanielRedfoot]

Gerrymandered voting districts should be made illegal.

[Chode]

I’d guess that Robert Shuler Smith is another black racist out to get honkies. Our government, local, state and federal, is infested with black racists who hate normal people.
