‘It will help, in the end, to result in a successful self-defense verdict.’

depends on what counts are brought against them; self defense isn’t going to pertain to a reckless conduct charge; these two had to know that their actions of tracking the guy down, and then emerging from the car with a drawn gun, could result in the tragedy that did result...as a matter of fact, the charge could easily be upped to ‘aggravated assault’ which is the act of placing another person in reasonable apprehension of immediately receiving a violent injury by using a deadly weapon, in which case a stacked charge of possession of a firearm while committing a crime is usually appended...

these two could be looking at a rather lengthy prison term...

Looks like that could happen. I have to say the jogger didn’t look like he was running away but jogging right along.

At any rate this played out really bad for everyone there. Especially the young man who’s life just got suffed out.
