JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A Jacksonville man is on trial this week, accused of shooting his date after an argument over a dinner bill.
It’s a case, now on trial, raising new questions about online dating safety.
Jamal Moreland is charged with attempted armed robbery and attempted first-degree murder. Prosecutors say he met the victim through the LGBTQ dating app Grindr in February 2023.
According to investigators, the two went to a bowling alley, then a liquor store. At some point, Moreland ordered food and wanted the victim to pay. When the victim refused, prosecutors say Moreland became agitated.
The victim told police he dropped Moreland off, but later picked him up again after Moreland texted asking for $45, claiming he had just gotten a ticket. Moments later, prosecutors say Moreland opened fire inside the victim’s truck — hitting him in the arm and chest.
The victim managed to drive away but crashed into a ditch before being rushed to the hospital.

It sounds more like a failed business transaction rather than a dinner date. Typical flamer behavior.

Notice how the sex of the victim is assiduously left out.

Went to a liquor store.....that’s where it went sideways right there.
Blacks have a problem with impulse control to begin with.....add booze and that’s when you get shot in your own vehicle.

Not completely but enough to see it doesn’t fit the narrative.
Also, this source is a cbs affiliate and they tow the democrat party line like good little lap dogs.
