Some young buck tried to beat up an old man in Colorado Springs about 15 or 20 years ago alongside the highway.

Old man is enjoying retirement, as he was never charged. Young buck never will.

No matter how it turns out for the old man, the younger guy may very well not live to regret picking the fight.

As happened here, he died doing what he loved more than life itself.

How many people have been charged with assault by throwing a bag of popcorn? This is the premise of your assumption. That Reeves was defending himself against potentially deadly assault. Not surprisingly the District Attorney and most of the posters on this thread disagree with your premise.

The fact Reeves initiated and escalated the confrontation proves him as the aggressor.

Take a look at Reeves’ arraignment photo versus more recent photos. It is clearly evident that this is a case of testosterone and steroid use gone wrong. Someone didn’t take the warning labels seriously and made a terrible mistake.

This is not a self defense case. Reeves is charged with murder and is fully accountable for the consequence of his action.
