I disagree. He had control of the situation. She was incapacitated. Unless I see evidence that either she had a weapon or made a move on him, the final shooting was not self-defense.
“She was incapacitated.”
Not at all certain. Early reports are often wrong. Plenty of physical evidence to analyse.
We will see what the investigation reveals. Clearly, she was not pregnant.
Not in a million years could I imagine myself shooting someone that was begging for their life — especially one that claimed to be pregnant, lie or no.
Well then if we were both on the jury I guess it would result in a mistrial.
If it had been a couple of kids stealing his hubcaps in his driveway and he chased them down I would agree with you. And if they hadn’t beat the crap out of him first I would agree too. But she initiated a violent unprovoked confrontation with this guy after breaking into his home and it ended very badly for her.
I just hope I am never put into a situation like that.
He had control of the situation? He was an 80 yo man who was jumped in his own home by these two and suffered a broken collarbone? How exactly is that having control?
