It looks like there WERE previous ‘issues’. He should have been locked up or at least institutionalized; but I guess we don’t do that anymore...

I’m not a lawyer - and I don’t play one on TV - but I think manslaughter is a lesser included offense of murder, and referred to as 2nd degree. Then again, his state might classify it as you showed.

Best to say, “I’m sorry” and keep moving.

Hopefully, the only mulch the perp ever has to worry about is his own body’s.

As a perp, he found God a little earlier than those who make it to prison. This ought to play well with his lawyer’s defense.

“He should have already been locked up and the key thrown away.”

Shortly after I moved to Tallahassee a neighbor phoned 911 and told them he was cutting his leg off and to send an ambulance. He tied a torniquet, poured rubbing alcohol on the blade of a new chainsaw and cut his leg off. The sheriff knew all about this guy and the family had begged them to arrest and Baker act him dozens of times. The sheriff said, “We rarely use the Baker act because if we bring him in, then his treatment comes out of my budget. That’s an open-ended commitment and comes down to a choice. Do you want deputies on the road, or do you want this one individual in a mental ward?”

The reason so many dangerous people who could be in prison aren’t, is simply budget. Cops try very hard not to arrest because the budget won’t support holding them, prosecuting them and incarcerating them.

Of course, this is before you get into the woke politics of letting rioters’ riot because the Democrats want chaos.

Deveraux Christopher Johnson was previously convicted in Nevada of forced criminal sexual assault of a 19-year-old in Clark County, Nevada in 2005 when he was 27 years old. He registered as a sex offender when he moved to Canton, Michigan.

I doubt that Nathan Morris knew any of this or he wouldn't have been walking his two and five year old daughters in front of Johnson's house.

The poo-perp did indeed shout, "Praise to God Almighty", in the Fox2Detroit video. He'll never cop insanity given the exactitude with which he finally followed the police instructions.

You're going away, biotch, and a white man will buy your house and throw away your biznatch in a 1-800-Dumpster.

“Any questions?’’

None. Three years ago I had some ahole tailgate me into my hospitals parking lot.

Guy claimed I was tailgating HIM! and yours truly here did a dumb thing.

Instead of stopping at the main entrance and alerting security(1st bad move) I pulled over in the parking, (second bad move) and then I got out of my car and walked over to his(3rd bad move) and said "Hey pal, what's the problem?'' and he gets out of his car, a late model silver BMW and starts swinging and shoving me around.

Now I was 63 at the time, I'm no ‘’big tough guy’’type but I did have plenty of martial arts training and I didn't listen to what I was taught, just as you said, if you can walk away do it.

I ended up having the guy arrested and charged with aggravated assault. He lost his drivers license for six months and got six months probation and had to go ‘’anger management’’.

Again, you right. If you can walk instead of talk(confront) do so.

No he did not shoot him because he stepped on his mulch.

that is a cunning lie to mitigate his punishment.

He shot him because he had an enormous amount of hate for his neighbor and the step caused him to explode and lose his control.

I hope the daughter who touched the mulch never finds out what triggered the wackadoodle to whack her dad.

He’s not a sicko looney toon. He’s a murderer that should have been on death row.

Heck no they try to keep it hidden. We live in NYS and I can tell you that all these leftard law organizations who are comprised almost exclusively of lesbians and cat ladies believe that the justice system is racist toward browns and blacks. They are now insisting that private landlords don’t screen their applicants whatsoever. Not for criminal background, credit, former landlord references, evictions, nothing. Cuomo and Peekaboo have sealed eviction records in NYS.

We will soon be ordered by law to rent to anyone who can fog up a mirror. Just had a member of a protected class try to fake her credit score by showing me a screenshot of her grandmother’s credit (not much better) who happened to have the same name!

What the heck, was is this related to the story?

“””Morris, who worked at Ford as an engineer, recently got into politics and was affiliated with the Michigan GOP in Wayne. ***”””

I HATE THE MEDIA!!!
