NBC has sympathy for the robber. Typical Dems.

Local politics can get really nasty.

When I saw the video on local news I knew he would be charged.

In Colorado, you can use deadly force to stop a robbery.

The perp stole a hatchet he planned to use on the store owner if he attempted to stop him.

Looks like self defense to me. (I saw the video).

5.56mm

Imagine if a cop had been just outside the door seeing a criminal armed with a hatchet rushing toward him.

Imagine a cop trying to arrest such a person and the person is struggling, breaks free, and is holding the hatchet while running toward a group of children. Imagine further that it is my kid in the group of children and I am carrying. Do I hold my fire and wait to see if he kills my kid? Does the cop have to wait until he kills my kid? Does the store owner have to wait until he kills my kid?

The crime escalated from shoplifting to armed robbery as soon as the criminal struggled to get away.

Suppose the criminal had stolen a gun from a gun store. Is an armed gun-store owner required to just let him go?

but wasn't seen in the video physically threatening Dunn

But then again, Dunn probably saved the life of someone who will most likely remain unknown. I would find Dunn, no guilty.

If he had a Magic Blue Costume on or Legally Owned one, the mere Sight of ANY Weapon would be Justification for Deadly Force

There’s a lesson to be learned... Never bring a stolen hatchet to a gunfight with the owner of the hatchet.

This is Lakeland, a conservative hotbed and home of Grady Judd, a famously tough sheriff. Therefore I predict the commissioner will be acquitted.

The problem is he shot this guy as he was trying to get away and not posing a threat to the shop keeper. This is going to be tough to defend in court.

Well, just going by the video, the perp thief was trying to get away and was outside when he was shot trying to escape. The shooter was not in any danger at the time so yeah; at least manslaughter of some kind. Can’t just shoot someone if your life or some one else is not in danger even with stand your ground laws.

This thief paid the ultimate price for his crime but would have probably been ROR’d by the court or picked up by ICE if illegal.
