Jimminy Christmas! that was Murder.. the guy left and came back with a rifle for a scuffle that wasn’t even his! and the guy never laid a hand on him or her.. he was 8-10 feet away and shot a guy who wasn’t advancing .. How are you gonna convince a rational person that the guy with the gun was in fear for his or the womans safety???
“the guy left and came back with a rifle for a scuffle that wasn’t even his!”
Wasn’t his? It was on his property, and an ex was being aggressive with his woman. He tried that big guy looming doofus routine trying to bully the other guy at his own house. Got his lamp blowed out instead.
West Texas isn’t the place to forget your manners that way.
