re: An interesting case of self-defense is going to get heated in Lake Charles

No, why would you assume that?

Should I be under the impression that your opinions on society are relevant or applicable in individual cases? Say for example, the one you're talking about.

There should be a law saying the loser pays all expenses and legal fees of the people they frivolously dance through the legal system.

Insurance rates would go up 10 times because of all the legal fees they'd have to pay

I’d hope everyone in here understands that the attorney has a client to represent and doesn’t make personal judgments of the guy because of the positions he takes for his client. He’s a solid dude and a good attorney.

You obviously know him.

He’s not “a solid dude”, he’s a pos scum bag attorney trying to ruin someone’s life. frick your friend/family member for saying this below:

“We’re going to keep pressure on authorities to release the man’s name because if he did nothing wrong, there’s no need to protect him. There’s no need to shield his name,” Clemons said.

Sounds like the Speirs case.

DON'T LEAVE THE frickING HOUSE. WAIT FOR THE frickER TO BREAK IN BEFORE YOU SHOOT HIM.

This could be the case not being on the Jury and hearing the case.

I don’t know if you are familiar with bathing suits, but most don’t have a lot of hiding places.

Hey may or may not be a good attorney but this doesn't sound like a "solid" dude. He knows EXACTLY what he's doing.

“Our unarmed client was brutally shot and killed by a homeowner in south Lake Charles on July 4, 2022,” Clemons’ office said in a statement. “Joseph Tezeno was a 21-year-old student at McNeese State University, and he did not have a criminal record. He was attending a college party in the area. He was a truly gentle soul. Unfortunately, he was intoxicated and inadvertently walked onto the wrong property. However, trespassing by a young black man should not result in a death sentence. All indications thus far are that this cold-blooded killing could have been averted. Joseph’s family and friends are still grieving and desperately seeking answers, which have been very difficult to obtain thus far."

We don’t think he had his eye glasses on, he wore eye glasses. He went to this house by mistake.”

Did he misplace his hearing aid too for him to not hear the homeowner or the warning shot?

quote:

---

drunk college kid was trying to get into a house late at night. The homeowner heard it and went outside with a gun and told the kid to leave. The kid started advancing toward the owner so the owner fired a shot into the ground as a warning. The kid still kept advancing so the owner out of fear shot the kid.

---

If this is what happened then I see no way at all of the homeowner being at fault. It's an unfortunate situation, but being drunk isn't an excuse to immediately excuse all of your actions.

But the homeowner even giving him a warning shot is proof that he likely didn't want to kill the guy, but he kept walking forward and gave him no choice at that point.

I'll preface this by saying I've been drunk many times, and I've done stupid things, I have definitely nearly walked into the wrong apartment before. However, I would hope that someone pointing a gun at me would sober me up immediately.

Your take, and you better hope it's always a drunk kid in swim trunks.

Something similar to this happened in maybe the 80s or 90s...maybe foreign exchange student on Halloween. Wrong house and got shot.
