Prosecutors won't charge janitor, say he killed teens in self defense

Also intrigued how there was cell phone video of the attack, if one was holding him, and another one beating him, all in an apartment building stairwell. Was the 20 year old co-conspirator taking video to post it on YouTube later? Or were they performing for an audience?

(Rossetto was an independent contract janitor, not even an employee of the complex.)

Eff with the bull and you get the horn.

[afraidfortherepublic]

Janitor who shot teens in self defense won’t be charged.

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.

[DaveA37]

Finally somebody gets it.

What were they thinking of charging the janitor with “Shooting someone who’s only crime was trying to kill you”?

Relatives of Miller and Bell want an explanation from authorities of why Miller and Bell were in that apartment house.

We know the janitor was legitimately servicing fire extinguishers.

This reads like Miller and Bell (and Gibbs) had no legitimate reason to be there.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Relieved! Justice has been served.

Bammy is running outta sons.

LOL!

And now daughters.

Miller (a 17 yr old female) leaves behind two young children, including one with Bell. Her family insists this wasn't in her character.

"You can't call her an animal," Reed says. "You can't call her a ghetto this and that. It's not what she deserves."

The janitor should send the families of the dead perps a bill for the ammunition he was forced to use to defend his life.

I don’t know about “non-Amish” but the deceased were “yutes”.

Ok, I have not seen the standard line. They were turning their lives around, they loved their families, they loved their dogs and they were aspiring rappers.

[Navy Patriot]

Likely the families allowed their "kids" to be indoctrinated as professionally aggrieved carrying "justified black rage", which is as deadly as cyanide in their purple drank.

Arrogant anger will get ya killed real quick.

[Navy Patriot]

Or “college bound”.

[Mark17]

Or “college bound”.

Yes, that too.

[The people have spoken]

Where’s Sharpton? This looks like the Trayvon case. Prediction: The shooter will be indicted by a grand jury.

[Eagles6]

Why isn’t the 20 yr old being charged? He assaulted Rossetto and was an active participant in a felony that resulted in a death. That’s felony murder here in PA. Life no parole.

[Old Grumpy]

“You can’t call her an animal,”

No, I wouldn’t want to besmirch the animal kingdom by calling her one of them. She was nothing but a low-life piece of trash who got exactly what she deserved.

[Psalm 144]

“the only reason the da didn’t chare him is because there’s video of the entire attack that totally vindicates him.”

Eyup.

[Psalm 144]

In other words, they are cudgels or nightsticks.

George Zimmerman was also told he wouldn’t be charged. We all saw how that turned out.
