Are you seriously suggesting that someone else fired the shots. Oh there is this little nugget of info that you seem to have missed as well "He [the dad] went to the bedroom and fired "warning shots up high." He then fired shots toward the bottom of the door."

I'm suggesting that its an open question if Reed fired what normal people would think of as warning shots, or if he aimed through the door hoping to hit someone. Right now we have two conflicting stories, and the physical evidence of the door to which we are not privy. At trial, the physical evidence will come out, and we'll find out if Guzman being paraylzed is an unfortunate accident, or an intentional shot.

Well, you are correct that the physical evidence is something we are not privy to, but one thing we do know. The shot was intentional. We may not know what he was aiming at, but it is clear that he intended to shoot the gun in the general direction of 2 human beings, one of whom was his allegedly precious daughter. From where I sit, the ‘unfortunate accident’ defense is going to a challenge to make.

In either case he fired the shots toward them. Whether they were directly at them or in their direction and ricocheted, they weren't "warning shots" like those you would (foolishly) fire up into the air.
