temporary insanity. Not guilty.

Put yourself in his place for a minute.

You're pushing a truck within sight of your home. Some drunken asshole smashes the bodies of your sons between his car and the bumper of your truck. Injuries are grotesque. Your sons are dying, your wife and living children are screaming.....and the asshole who is responsible is 8' away from you.

I'd wager more than 1 normally sane person could snap.

He should get manslaughter and minimal time in the pen.
Hard to argue with this.

What would everyone thoughts be if the driver wasn't drunk? It's an unlit road so it could have just as easily been anyone (probably a lot less likely though).

Something like this happened in Spfld. a couple years back.

Some see it as justifiable homicide.

Probably do some time in a psychiatric hospital.

I'm sorry but if you have 2 more kids then you don't do that shit. Especially a daughter. The odds of her being somewhat unstable just increased.

The sage voice of experience weighing in again.

And I would vote not-guilty 1,000 times out of 1,000.
Justifiable homicide?

We can't allow our society to devolve into vigilante justice. No one profits from that scenario.

His anger about the death of 2 of his kids results in his other 2 kids losing their father. No one wins here.

He may be indicted, but it probably won't go to trial. No witness to the actual shooting. No gun. Sympathetic circumstances. No prosecutor wants that loss on his record.

And you ****ing add on with this. Die in a ****ing fire you mouth breathing piece of shit.

What's with the question mark?

HonestChieffan 02-12-2013 08:49 PM
Anyone involved in this here legally?

trndobrd 02-12-2013 09:03 PM
The man is guilty!

Illegal discharge of a firearm within city limits. $150 fine. Next case...
