This is absolute bullshite. Drejka was defending himself against a deranged TPOS that was looking to inflict great bodily injury against him.
It’ll be interesting to see what the jury makeup was.

Did you see the video he was backing up when he got shot. Its a tough case but not bullshite.

Just watched the video, doesn’t look like he was “looking to inflict great bodily injury” he was protecting his girlfriend from getting yelled at by some loon who takes it upon himself to enforce parking violations at a gas station by yelling at someone for a few minutes.
Also never looked like he kept going after him after the initial push

The video didn't do Drejka ANY favors. Because it certainly looks like the deceased wasn't following up on attacking him.
For anyone curious, the Daily Mail has the video. Just by going by the video, I'd probably convict.

quote:
After the two-day selection process, five men and a woman were selected to decide Drejka's fate. Two women and a man were chosen as alternates. Most of the jurors are white, none are black.
quote:
State prosecutors are up first. They focus on an encounter Michael Drejka had just months earlier with Rick Kelly in the same Circle A parking lot. Prosecutors explain how Kelly also parked in a handicapped parking spot and was approached by Drejka. Prosecutors tell the jury in that instance, Kelly told investigators Drejka told him, "I could blow your head off."
quote:
After just 5 minutes of cross examination, the state called their third witness: John Tyler. He is Kelly's boss, whom Drejka told he was going to send photos of Kelly parked in a handicapped spot to. Drejka left a voicemail for Tyler on February 14th, the day Kelly parked in a handicapped spot outside of the Circle A Food Store. Drejka told Tyler he took photos and would be turning them over to the authorities. Drejka told Tyler he was not handicapped nor was he with someone who was handicapped. Tyler says Drejka told him, "If I had a gun I would have shot him (Kelly)."

People who take it upon themselves to enforce handicap parking should just be shot for that offense alone.

McGlockton would still be alive and Drejka would not be looking at a very long prison term had the latter minded his own business. McGlockton was defending his companion against a deranged, gun-toting, lunatic and did absolutely nothing wrong.

Drejka started it.
A carry license does not make you a cop. If you wouldn't say something while unarmed, you should be wary of feeling comfortable saying it while you are armed.
I think that's exactly what happened here.
