Somone on FB said 85 but who knows


If the shooter is really 85 and he's been being bullied by a 50ish a-hole for 10 years, I think he might be able to get off. Maybe his lawyer gets an expert witness doctor to testify that he had some type of diminished capacity or a shrink to diagnose PTSD from years of harassment. Will be interesting to see what happens.

Has the neighbor retained your legal services yet?

Just because someone pisses you off doesn’t give you the right to kill them. He’s going to have to say he feared for his life. The guy has 2nd degree murder written all over him if all the allegations are true.

This has nothing to do with gun control and everything to do with the fact that the shooter appears to have zero value for human life.

The Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office has arrested Wayne Higgins, 78, in connection with the fatal shooting of Lee "Big Lee" Martin. Higgins is suspected of shooting Martin outside of his Bonnabel Boulevard home Saturday morning (May 5) after a dispute.

Authorities were able to obtain video of the incident from a neighbor's home, though that video has not been released publicly. Lopinto said the video showed Martin and a neighbor, now identified as Higgins, getting into a dispute after Martin sprayed the neighbor's black truck with water from a hose.

The argument appeared to escalate, and the video shows the neighbor exiting his vehicle with a gun and shooting Martin. Lopinto said JPSO is still investigating the details of the incident, including how many times Martin was shot.

It is not yet clear what charges Higgins will face.

So long as the neighbor doesn't talk without an attorney present....I bet he walks or receives the bare minimum imaginable.

What? He could've easily driven off. He was in his truck with it running. He put it in park, continued escalating the situation, and then got out with the intention of shooting Big Lee, then shot him.

I understand that half of the US has an IQ below 100, but that's pretty cut and dry

I mean it basically made zero sense in the context of what he was quoting.

How didn't it makes sense?

quote:

It’s his property, and he has the right to open carry in this state.

I didn’t feel safe there, which was exactly his intent as the property owner. I removed myself from his property immediately, which was also his intent as the property owner.

No laws need to be changed and no rights need to be infringed.

So it's ok to put a house for sale and then threaten people with a gun who come to look at it? That's far different than what you're attempting to explain. I could possibly see your point if someone is on your property for no good reason at all.

I wonder what was the last thoughts going through his mind. Did he have a sudden realization of how big of a dick he was, or was it more like “no one shoots Big Lee, the King of Metairie!”



I bet a lifetime of regret hit him hard.....right after that bullet ripped him open.

bullshite! If Big Lee was spraying that dude with water he deserved what he got. Don’t frick with other people, and you won’t get shot. If more of us were like that old man this country would be a lot safer.

I was on his property without an invitation. Many people let that slide; he didn’t.

A “For Sale” sign doesn’t mean “Come tour around my property whenever you’d like”. I assumed it would be ok to pull up his driveway to see the back of the property without exiting my vehicle. My assumption was wrong and he let me know that.

When I returned weeks later, I did so with an appointment, so I was invited.

FWIW, the old neighbor drives an older Tundra with flames going down it and cop spotlights on each A pillar. I'm not saying I'm not trashy, but I definitely wouldn't be caught driving that.

What am I not comprehending? This guy is saying if he gets angry he'll pull a gun on someone. That's literally the reason there's so much gun violence in this country

Why in the hell would you return after something like that?

Using google street view you can clearly see 615 on Big Lee's house and the new palm trees. He'd need good water pressure to hit the neighbor on the right.

Big Lee's
