Absolutely correct. He should have lawyered up the moment he fired his weapon. Upon discharging his weapon, he should have secured the weapon, called 911 for the police and ambulance, and called an attorney while he waitedfor them to show up. We don’t know the facts as he reported that they had words. Had he called the police beforehand, they might have come in a few minutes, or not, depending on the department. We live in a remote area that it would be at least 30 minutes (at best, maybe an hour or not at all) before the law showed up...
Correct. This is what I have been instructed by my CCW (now in Texas it is license to carry) instructor and by Texas Law Shield. After the shooting, call 911, then immediately call the lawyer. In this case Texas Law Shield has an attorney on call. The police can not object to you talking to your attorney.
My instructor is a former state trooper.
