Other than the assertions of the the person who shot him and that man’s daughter what is the evidence that the man who was killed was in any way violent? Most abusers don’t just go off once. There is a history. There is mention of additional calls to the police but not what was said or which party they were calling about.

You may automatically want to believe that the man is at fault but having, on various occasions, been punched, slapped, spat on and dodged a cup of hot coffee I can tell you it isn’t always so.

There are a lot of questions that need to be asked before we condemn anyone; such as what was the nature of the relationship, had there been past violence? If so, initiated by whom? What was the nature of the custody agreement and each party’s rights under that agreement?

I think we should all just cool off until all of the facts are brought out.

Nice to see the voice of reason among all the emotional rants. Thanks.

That is not necessarily true. I have personnally experienced intimidation and violence by someone and no police call was ever made. I had a friend whose husband was pretty meek until she left him. He attacked her as she tried to move her things out of the house and nearly punched her right in front of a cop. Sort of like the meek dog who flips out when he feels cornered some men do not get violent until they see they have “lost”.
