The affidavit says Meyer’s wife called an attorney for advice before her husband called 911.
Meyer refused to answer the 911 dispatcher’s questions, the Morning News reports, apparently stressing he was the victim of a crime.
The Morning News also reports that Meyer told police he threw the bullet shell casings in the trash.
Thats sounds like murder folks!
A lawyer in Texas got a wealthy man off a murder charge after he killed and dismembered his neighbor. He claimed self defense. He was later caught on a hot mic boasting of other people he’d killed.
The guy had no lawful duty to call the cops; no lawful duty to not throw the brass in the trash; and certainly no duty to talk to the cops. The attorney his wife called told them not to talk to the cops. Even innocent people should not talk to the cops.
The prosecutor will never get a conviction, and may not even get an indictment. Remember, this is Texas.
No, that sounds like somebody who talked to a lawyer (not the tossing of the casings, but the refusing to talk to police without his attorney present).
Not to me.
If I end up shooting someone under any circumstance I am calling an attorney before I talk to anyone else.
I would be very cautious about answering questions from dispatcher or any other LEO before I spoke with an attorney.
Did he throw the shells in the trash before he knew he shot someone or after?
He may be guilty of murder but those things don’t prove it to me.
