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.
Given what you said, Mr Parish is in deep trouble.
The DA is shopping for a case to prove himself to his electorate. This is it.
Something to think about in defense shooting cases. Know who the DA is, what their politics are, and how they handle business.
If you find yourself in a similar situation as Mr. Parish, think about pulling up stakes and moving before you get yourself in a self defense situation where the best case resolution is bankruptcy and civil trial costs till you die.
