Hope he has a good lawyer....

Show home invasion stats, flash mobs and whatever else that exemplifies modern black culture.

That part of the narrative is very hard to credit.

Hidden in the fine print of the article is the detail that the decedent was intoxicated on multiple substances.

Wasn’t it, like, THREE HOURS after the car crash that she allegedly “sought help.” (That is, she was finally sobered up?)

Why do they miss key points like this in the first couple of sentences?

Oh yeah - agenda. Think George Zimmerman.

Blood alcohol = 0.218. Plus marijuana. No wonder she disappeared for a couple of hours after she hit that parked car.

“Our evidence shows she knocked on the locked screen door.”

In some “civilized” places that is grounds for justifiable homicide. /s

The homicide occurred around 3:30 AM.

Banging around on my porch at that time is not a good idea.

She waited three hours and still had a BAC over .2

So she probably had a BAC of 2.4 when the accident occurred.

Knew there was a crash six blocks away...?

But you are right. Obviously, this was just a racist killing. Let’s get the Reverends together and have a march!

That would be a pretty good way to get himself convicted, and his lawyer disbarred. Other than that, great plan.

And that justifies shooting her through a locked door, how?

How do you really know what happened since we’ve not heard the homeowner talk once on this subject? I’d say she put herself in a very precarious position at 3:30, drunk on a strangers porch. But....none of us know the facts and I would not take anything the media says as the gospel.

“Show home invasion stats, flash mobs and whatever else that exemplifies modern black culture.”

That would be a worthy defense strategy and would be great for cable TV news. But, he also needs to move the trial out of Wayne county to a county in the Michigan U.P.
