Shot at fleeing suspect.

I would vote not guilty if on the jury.

Self-defense. Very bad in today’s political climate. Your government wants you to die.

What a bunch of cr@p! The only thing the store clerk did wrong was letting the perp live.

No good deed goes unpunished.

“Police said the store clerk, Rafus Anderson....”

Looks like a black name to me. Off the top of me head this is a black on black shooting. Rafus was in fear of his life, so shooting justified. Put me on this jury!

Article says treated and released. That implies relatively minor, to me.

Ah…you’re right. I saw the part about the other customer who was shot. (I’m glad he/she will be OK.)

And it’s right in the headline. Ack! Dreary Monday morning and I guess I need another coffee. LOL

I am not sure that’s what it means.
Said he shot him but didn’t know he hit him as the suspect ran. Could mean the suspect ran after he shot.

I wonder if it was that person who pressed for the charges? Except for that seems clean...

As soon as they are running away from you, the threat to you is, in theory, over and you’re not supposed to shoot. That said, I too would vote to acquit.

If I was the defense attorney, i would introduce into evidence the MANY cases where a robber left, returned and murdered people.

“I would vote not guilty if on the jury.”

_____

Same here. I’m tired of the criminals having more rights than law abiding citizens.

However, The last time I was on a grand jury, I voted to no-bill (not indict) an accused on a gun charge, in addition to other charges, because they wanted to charge him simply because the firearm was in the same room as the bag of marijuana (the person was not otherwise a prohibited person). I swear they charge people with crimes who shouldn’t be charged, and in the next breath let a repeat criminal walk out the door even when their crimes are on video.
