I’m a chick. Here’s the difference between you and me in that situation.
While I would choose not to engage TZ, even through a crack in the window, because he had his hand in wasteband. I don’t know if he’s carrying a gun, pepper spray, or skittles.
When he runs away, my “fear” changes to concern for what he’s doing elsewhere. Since I am carrying, I do get out of the car to ensure that he’s not breaking into someone’s home, destroying someone’s property, etc.
So even though GZ said he was afraid of TZ in the car, his fear went away when TZ ran out of sight. Then his NW responsibilities kicked back in.
“When he runs away, my fear changes to concern for what hes doing elsewhere. Since I am carrying, I do get out of the car to ensure that hes not breaking into someones home, destroying someones property, etc.”
But is that what happened??????
When someone can find me a transcript of that interrogation as it pertains to the car I will show you exactly why the jury could be concerned and why O’Mara is working on fixing the issues.
Now, I have to go because it really is pointless until someone can get me a transcript TO SHOW YOU how this played out.
For pete’s sake..there are people posting that he wasn’t afraid in his car..and that just isn’t the case.
