Never jab a friend with an M-16.

More importantly, don't lie to the police about what happened, and don't fabricate evidence in an attempt to exonerate yourself. If your attempts to obstruct the investigation are discovered, it makes you look rather guilty.

Christopher Bailey could have survived if he hadn't been shot to death by her son!

He allegedly stole from our young hero, allegedly stole his bike, and allegedly "slept" with his girlfriend (mother of his child) and was coming over with two thugs to see him but the gun went off accidently. Yeah, right. Chalka one up to stupidity.
