A CVS worker accused of stabbing a serial shoplifter during a fight inside a Midtown store no longer faces murder charges over the slaying, it was revealed in court Monday.

Scotty Enoe, 46, was indicted on the lesser rap of manslaughter in the July 6 death of 50-year-old homeless man Charles Brito at a CVS at Broadway and West 49th Street.

Enoe — who pleaded not guilty at his Manhattan Supreme Court arraignment Monday — told cops he only acted in self-defense after he was pummeled by Brito without provocation, according to new court documents. “Obviously, we’re pleased about that,” his defense attorney, Adam Freedman, told The Post after the hearing — adding that the murder charge being dropped had come as a surprise.

He should be getting an award rather than a manslaughter charge.

Soros DA = don't even try claiming self defense when an “undomiciled” person is the victim.

Well, that’s a misleading title. The clerk is still being charged with manslaughter.
He still faces an expensive trial and years in prison.

Yep. DemonRATs are against the principle of self-defense. Just like any criminal. There’s not much difference between a shoplifter,and a DemonRAT. The RATs just use the bureaucracy as their agent in theft.

So is he still facing a manslaughter charge? That’s pretty serious, too.

From the article it appears he is. This is garbage.
