And exactly where were the authorities that were handling the riots? Granted, a 17 y/o should not have been put or allowed himself to be put in that situation but once there he did what he had to do to survive (and I do mean that literally). To charge him with 1st degree murder just shows how corrupt the “authorities” are.
Kyle will not be found guilty of 1st degree murder. What will happen is he will be forced to plea to a lesser charge.
Look, placing oneself in a position like this is a losing proposition particularly in a state that has draconian gun laws.
