This man, whether right or wrong, just talked himself into a whole world of avoidable hurt. As a lawyer friend told me one time during a poker game -
“If you ever are in a situation like a shooting or vehicular homicide then Just Shut The Hell Up!, you have the right to remain silent - USE IT!”
If you are involved in a shooting just give your ID to the police, no matter how justified it was, and tell them you won’t say a word until you speak to your attorney. It may cost a few bucks, but a cop or DA who gets their wires crossed on your story and think you changed it could cost you a whole lot more headaches than the lawyers bill could.
Well said.
