Just as the Detroit police said the man would not be charged because it was self-defense. Apparently they didn't have the same concern for his "That's when I lit him up" claim, that you did.
Yet, you still haven’t seen what the lawyer for the victim’s (perpetrator’s) family will do in civil court suing for damages.
BTW. I didn’t “claim” anything. The article clearly reports words to those effects coming from the shooter.
