Something could be done, couldn't it? Perhaps Governer Perry could issue a pardon? And if he could, would he?

Whittington is apparently going to be OK, so the issue will be rendered moot.

If it came to that, though, I imagine that a.) a grand jury investigation couldn't be averted (and probably shouldn't), but b.) would certainly conclude "accidental death" -- thus bringing the matter to an end.

"Whittington is apparently going to be OK, so the issue will be rendered moot."

The blood lusting media will never let this die. If Whittington dies two years from now they'll try to link this shooting accident to his death.

Let's say, for instance, Whittington dies of a heart attack in late 2007. The msm will 'interview' numerous medical 'experts' who will claim that the shooting weakened Whittington's heart and likely caused it to fail years before it should have. You can't stop ghouls and vampires from loving the taste of blood.
