It would have a bearing on the case if I was a juror because,as has been made clear by many of this nation's top legal scholars,a juror's judgment regarding the evidence presented *and* the law being cited in the case cannot be questioned.
For proof just google "jury nullification" and study its history.
Perhaps a review of the legal definitions in general are a wise move, espc. if you bear arms or drive etc.
Apples and oranges.IMO there are somewhat different standards,from a *moral* standpoint,in effect when judging a police officer's use of arms than when judging a "common citizen's" use of arms.and as I've made clear in previous posts that "moral" definitions mean more to me than do "legal" ones.Thus,my support for jury nullification.
I could see your point if the woman had smoked the cop and was hooked up for murder, but alas that is not the case.
Jury nullification is certainly worthy of specific cases, but this is not one of them. The officer was not lawfully where he was, he intentionally shot the woman. He became the unlawful aggressor in a homicide He was not following TX law nor PD policy/tactics in all of these circumstances. In the end, if jury null is applied, then it will be a miscarriage of justice.
However, we shall see.
