A Montgomery County jury yesterday found a former U.S. marshal guilty of voluntary manslaughter, reckless endangerment and using a firearm in commission of a crime in the fatal shooting of a Navy seaman during a traffic confrontation last year.

A sentencing hearing is scheduled for July 26.

I actually had a friend who was a U.S. marshal.

Hated his job, compared it to being a government paid bounty hunter and used to tell me to many guys were going "rogue".

He was a good guy though, but he switched to another branch of law enforcement, being a marshal didn't ever give him time to see his kids.

What was the Seals problem?

Even Rodney King doped up on PCP, making him Super-Man, escaped with minor cuts and bruising.

If you have ever watched the whole video, in full, and totally (not just the media edits), you would probably be surprised at the fact that they didn't shoot him.

He tossed one of the cops about 5 feet like he was a toy.

That said, it looks like the jury though the marshall lied. His version was the guy tried to hurt him.

An earlier thread had eye witness accounts. The Marshalls story didn't jive.
