Shooter
I agree....but "statement, hell" Wanna hear the actual audio of the psycho fk himself? Along with the audio of the actually shooting? Warning!!! Quite disturbing!Just finished listening to this B$#tard's statement, and it is pretty disgusting... Stone cold murderer... No wonder the Jury took only 3 hours to sentence this guy... Unbelievable...
Lets see,
1. Innocence... NOPE (who was the Aggressor... AT the time of the killing)
2. Imminence of Immediate threat of Grave injury or Death... NOPE
3. Proportionality: Response of force in proportion to the PERCEIVED Threat of Force... NOPE
4. Reasonableness: Would the reasonable and Prudent person respond similarly in a similar situation? NOPE
5. Avoidance: (only element where SYG is involved...) Did he have a reasonable avenue of Retreat? NOPE (Although MINN has a so called Stand your Ground Statute, it has not been consistently followed and there have been a number of cases where it has not been followed based on circumstance) relates to the commission of a forcible felony in one's place of abode there is no duty to retreat.
Additionally involved significant preparation on Smith's part as well as the "laying in wait"... That is a chilling, chilling initial statement to the Investigator... Cold Cold Cold...
