Umm, I’m pretty sure the ‘morons’ on this thread are more interested in defending FL’s self defense law than Drejka.
Prior to the charge of manslaughter that was the only issue. All arguments against Derjka at the time were in reality arguments against self-defense. Thankfully, the State believes there is enough evidence to charge him with manslaughter. With manslaughter a reasonable discussion can bring in all extraneous issues such as prior actions, intent, disposition etc. without calling into question the legitimacy of self defense.
This case was clearly self defense yet this man is facing up to 30 years in prison. So that fact pretty much negates the protection of the states SYG law. This is what happens when we let politics get involved. The DA is playing to the BLM protest crowd and wont give a damn when the next thug beats someone to death because they were afraid to defend themselves.
