...and another reason to distrust this article. If you read the article where it talkes about the exchange student you are left with the impression that he just rang the bell, the homeowner just opened the door and shot him for no reason.

Here is the part from the article:

A man in Louisiana was cleared of wrongdoing in 1993 after he shot a Halloween-costumed Japanese exchange student knocking on his door looking for a party in 1992. He turned himself in after a grand jury had indicted him on charges of manslaughter in the killing of Yoshihiro Hattori of Nagoya, Japan. Hattori's friend testified in the trial that he was carrying a camera when they knocked on Rodney Peairs' door.

Quite different from what really happened. No mention of the fact that he charged at the homeowner who was pointing a gun at him and yelling "FREEZE!"
