And he should have had enough sense not to get into an argument with an enraged father.
The enraged father should have kept his head and used better judgement than either of the two teens. He murdered a teenaged boy.
What? She told her father she didn’t know him which caused him to think the boy had broken in and raped his daughter against her will. Think about that for a minute. Her LIE got that boy killed. SHE caused his death. The father thought he was protecting his daughter.
No. He dealt with what he perceived as an extant threat to himself and his family in a perfectly legal manner (in Texas).
Now, I will admit that with the same set of circumstances out ere in California, the dad would be going to jail for a long time. But that is because California has ridiculous laws concerning any kind of self-defense, let alone using a gun.
not when the teenage boy is quickly reaching for something when a guy with a gun has a bead on him. and his daughter, whom he believes, has told him she doesn’t know the guy.
if the guy is supposed to trust his daughter then he did when she said she denied knowing who he was.
