You need to read some of the stories on how this went down. Lloyd murdered this guy in a rage.

And I don't think that being twice the legal driving limit is "quite drunk." It's only a few beers to get to that.

Regardless of the alcohol level, being drunk unpaires your ability to make rational decisions, amoung other things.

I've read the article, and from what I gathered I failed to recognize the "rage" of which you speak of. This is not to suggest that my observation is correct. I am left with the impression that the marshall, and lest we forget-he had his entire family in the SUV while this incident transpired, didn't expect to be confronted with such a violent reaction, which apparently includes the assailant attempting to run the marshal down.
