It is very sad, really, IMO. A death is not good. But my prayers are mostly with the man who was forced to kill this kid. Even though he did the right thing in the situation, I suspect that this will be very difficult for him.

Probably.....they're as delinquent as the kids. There really isn't enough adults that have it together who can change the same old story heard year after year after year.....and most don't want things to change.

Yep, a real beauty, two of her brothers , a cousin and a non relation made up this gang of misfits. I like how they dumped the head shot perp at a scene of a car accident and took off, thinking they were going to what, out run the Popo’s radio ? One was hiding in a dumpster, a K-9 unit found him cowering in the trash.

31 replies befrore I proceed.

NO ONE has remarked that the other crew members are being charged with murder when the perp was shot by the home owner.

Since when has Lady justice decided to actually LOOK at who's doing what without the vacuum ?

BRAVO, LEO'S.

WINNING !

“While justified, I have a hard time feeling happiness about a 14-year-old’s life being snuffed out.”

While part of me agrees with you another part wonders what greater mischief, misdemeanors and felonies have been avoided by losing this person.
Usually two sides to every coin, but not always.

Why shouldn't the homeowner get the same benefit of the doubt as the robber?

Yeah, if that crew is on your lawn at 1am skulking around your car, you know they are not the auto club.
