It's clear the guy went beyond the bounds of what he should but no cut an dry conviction coming. In the end It comes down to a series of bad decisions that resulted in death. I dont think you can prove intent so then it comes down to being overzealous and that can get the manslaughter charge, but out right murder is highly unlikely IMO.

I think he gets acquitted on some, but not all charges and does time. Jurors probably fear for their lives on this one... If it's like when I was on Jury duty, jurors are unknown to the Public.

Angry ginger Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Friends son and his girlfriend are currently in jail waiting trial for someone they sold drugs too dying. Looking at up to 20 year i believe. Anyone who testifies that they sold drugs without immunity is a fool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would be seeing 50,000 more murder/attempted murder charges a year. Not saying it doesn't happen at all but not enough. Think Florida leads the way doing this.
