The left invents more and more BS.
In Chicago, 2 armed gangs had a daytime full on western shootout at the OK corral. The DA pressed no charges.and used the phrase Consensual Mutual Combatants

Yep- that was under the disgraced soft on crime Kim fox

“Sources said police sought to charge all five of the suspects in custody with murder and aggravated battery.

But on Sunday, Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office spokeswoman Cristina Villareal told reporters that prosecutors had “determined that the evidence was insufficient to meet our burden of proof to approve felony charges,” the Chicago Sun-Times reported.

Villareal also claimed that Chicago Police Department (CPD) officials had agreed with that decision.

She said the decision not to charge the five men was made because the people who were killed were “mutual combatants,” the Chicago Sun-Times reported........

and opted not to press charges against anyone involved despite the fact Chicago police officers had been on the scene and the mayhem was captured on video, FOX News reported”

Woops, I think the link was to another incident, not the one in traffic where she essentially,said the same stinking thing about “mutual combatants”

Imagine though if two hunters are out in the woods, and one accidently shooting the other, but instead of pleading that it was an accident because charges might be made, they plead that they were in a “mutual combative engagement” and the da decides not to prosecute as a result?

Homeowners don’t even get to plead that they were engaged in “mutual combat” when criminals break I to their homes and the owner shoots perps who were firing at them in many casesà
