OBERLIN — A Lorain County grand jury refused to indict an Oberlin man accused of shooting four men he said were harassing him.

He was accused of shooting Quan Jackson, 23, of Oberlin; Emilio Hernandez, 26, of Lorain; Anthony Lee, 22, of Elyria; and Isiah Richardson, 17, of Oberlin, on April 25

The charges seemed ridiculous at the time. The grand jury agreed. It seems that the prosecutor could not indict a ham sandwich this time.

This is like the first DA ever to lose an indictment right? Thought those were near automatic.

Whatever is in the water up there, export it please.

“Police Lt. Kevin Scalli described the victims’ wounds as non-life threatening”
Mr. Wooding should be remanded to the custody of the local range instructor for further training.

This is especially gratifying given that Oberlin is home to a totally degenerate shithole known as Oberlin College. Glad the townies have the commonsense that the ivory tower idiots lack.

Adrenalin. My cc instructor was a big proponent of dry fire perfect practice. You don’t waste bullets, and you do develop the correct muscle memory you will need when the crisis you never want to happen finally happens.

I’m glad he defended himself and was not indicted, but for his own safety, he should consider leaving town. Too many fools will want to get even with him for having the temerity to fight back. Thankfully, we have not become like England just yet. I think private gun ownership is outlawed there.

The folks living in Oberlin are nuttier than fruitcakes. I know a couple of them and wish I didn’t.
