It’s a bad shoot. The old man should have waited until the youth entered, if that was his intention.
The old man will probably be consigned to a retirement home, as they usually do with senior convicts.
“The man inside opened up the door and shot him in the head through the glass door. When Raphael was on the ground, he shot him again.”
“ Thompson revealed Monday that the teen was shot in the head and arm and that Yarl didn’t make any entry into the house at any point. Lester’s charging documents indicate that he shot rounds through a glass door.”

I agree.
“ The junior at Staley High School, who is Black, was allegedly shot in the head by the homeowner Lester, who is white. Lester allegedly shot Yarl again after he had fallen to the ground. Yarl got up and sought help at three homes before someone assisted him, family members said.”
“ Police conducted an informal interview with Yarl at Children’s Mercy Hospital. The teen said he rang the doorbell, waited outside and did not pull on the door. A man opened the door holding a firearm. Yarl said he was immediately shot in the head and fell to the ground where he was shot a second time, this time in the right arm.
Yarl told police the man said, “Don’t come around here.”
At a news conference Monday, Thompson was asked if race was a factor. He said yes, but declined to elaborate.”
