I had seen a report that it was murder 2 that was deadlocked and multiple counts of attempted murder he
was found guilty of.
As for whether or not there was a gun? It’s a matter
of he said/they said. He has a good reason to claim
there was one in the car. The occupants have just as
good a reason to say there wasn’t. Since time passed
between the shooting and LEO searching the car the
question of if a gun was in the car will never be proven
one way or another. It IS however an item that can create
enough reasonable doubt to cause a juror to create a mistrial.
And the fault for that lies squarely on Dunn. He never called 911 after the incident while the kids did. Their car was available to be searched and nothing was found.
Any juror who convicted Dunn of attempted M2 for those other charges and yet could claim self defense for the primary count truly needs psychological help.
