There is a side of this story that the victim laid hands on the accused first.
While the knifing was obviously not an appropriate level of response, the victim is not 100% innocent either.
It’s going to be interesting how Texas law on self defense is looked at in this case.
Prayers for the family.
I’ve only read that the victim laid hands on the murder’s backpack.
Texas law allows the use of deadly force if your life is threatened. Unarmed kid laying hands on another kid is not life threatening in this case. The murderer is going to jail.
This is the story I pieced together from reading several articles on this topic.
Nasty little obnoxious thug wore a backpack to the tent where players valuables were stored. The mother of the stabbed player told him he wasn't supposed to be in that tent. He smarted off with his obnoxious mouth telling her to mind her own business, perhaps threatening her.
Her son overheard the incident, and walked over to the nasty little piece of sh*t and told him to leave. He said something along the lines of "touch me and see what happens."
The guy then grabbed the nasty little piece of sh*t's arm, and the nasty little piece of sh*t stabbed him in the heart.
Then the nasty little piece of sh*t took off running.
Here are some not so flattering pictures of the nasty little piece of sh*t which might give you a better idea of who this nasty little piece of sh*t is.
