Well the character of the dead guy should help establish credibility of his behavior before and during this incident which is pertinent to the actions of the shooter.

its gonna definitely affect how I feel about the shooter claiming he was a threat To him or his wife.
So yeah, I think it should be discussed.
And I wasn’t suggesting anyone here was knighting for the beggar, but the media has gone to great
Lengths to stop calling him an aggressive panhandler. I find that odd, since people here were saying that he was and the media was too- originally.


The actions of the diseased are most important. If the guy threatened the shooter, that’s huge.

I think there were enough people initially interviewed that established the dead guy as an aggressive panhandler. And if he threatened the shooter it’s a huge part of the case.

But if the article is true, the defense would have to explain why the guy went back to his vehicle, got a gun and shot the guy.

Agreed. But that’s why I bring up the beggars behavior and character. Was he the aggressive panhandler as originally described? And what defines that? Did he follow the kid to his truck. Was he standing close by talking shite to this kid?

I’ve had bums follow me across the Albertsons parking lot even after I told them no. Did the deceased do the same before he was shot? Sounds like he didn’t flee, even when the kid was clearing the weapon.

This is all relevant to the case and establishing what degree of wrongdoing the shooter committed.

If any.

But it doesn’t look good for the shooter, all things considered.
