I’m making a point to CoaC that there’s hardly any facts out, certainly none that have been validated or confirmed, yet he’s dying to believe the race baiting side of this equation and convict the homeowner. Who, by the way, was minding his own business in his house when a drunk stranger showed up at 3:30 am. Maybe it woke him out of a sound sleep and rattled him so bad he accidentally pulled the trigger??

It think that it comes down to this: most people who have handled a shotgun know that it is very hard to accidentally discharge one unless you know almost nothing about shotguns.

If you put your finger on the trigger of a firearm, it had better be to fire it - it's not a resting place for your finger.

His story is, on its face, very difficult to credit.

I could care less about the "race baiting side" of this case. My analysis would be the same if it was a white guy shooting a black girl, a black guy shooting a white girl, or a leprechaun shooting a fairy.
