When at first you don’t succeed...
It’s a double tap. But done real slow.
Should have driven down and dealt with that problem, too.
Shows how bright they are. “Hey, let’s sneak up on this guy but do it so he can see us in his side view mirror”
Good lord - “[the dead teen]had just been reunited with his mother after / years in juvenile detention”
That said - going back afterwards was wrong as was not calling the police.
But it intrigues me that this might not have been a robbery per se but a gang hit…?
What I was thinking. Seems like those punks may have specifically targeted Luis for a reason, just like Luis returned to finish the job for a reason.
I saw a beaut the other day, a guy getting robbed by two thugs, just pure genius how he handled it. As soon as they walked in and pointed the gun he immediately handed them his backpack and got on his knees and put his hands up. He immediately posed himself an a non-threat. Fatal misjudgement for them, as soon as they turned their heads he pulls out his piece and shot them point blank. One thug managed to run out but the other went right down dead.
Ran out of ammo?
5.56mm
They couldn’t charge him with murder because the medical examiner said the first shots against the perp, which were justified, had already killed him.
So how can you get charged with “aggravated battery” for shooting a corpse? They could have charged him with unlawful discharge, or desecrating a corpse, but battery can only be committed against a living person, so I expect he will get off for this if he gets a decent lawyer.
Nothing to see here. Just another late-term abortion.
Right, Socialist Democrats? RIGHT?
Littering...maybe.
Ask for a jury trial.
He’s being prosecuted for aggravated battery, since the initially fired bullets, shot in self-defense, killed the thug.
But, you can’t return to the scene aND pump 10 more rounds into the thug. He must pay a price.
One year, PBJ.
Going back was dumb, wrong headed and made him culpable.
He clearly needed “his sign” to remind him not to do things like that.
“Sheriff, why did you and your deputy shoot the robber 34 times?”
“We ran out of bullets.”
Shouldn’t they be charging him with tampering with a crime scene instead?
“What I was thinking. Seems like those punks may have specifically targeted Luis for a reason, just like Luis returned to finish the job for a reason.”
I was thinking, What the h** are you doing at an ATM at night in a gang hood? The whole thing looked off.
That ammo was expensive. He’s suffered enough.
