After the negligent discharge
This right here will likely be the key to whether it was self-defense or murder. There was obviously bad blood there - had there been previous violence?
But yeah, as soon as he grabbed that shotgun and tried to wrestle it away things went too far. That's the factor that makes me lean toward valid self defense.
A few feet away and they're not a threat?
Please....
It was a tragedy, but the dead guy was a bully and paid for his stupid actions.
He does not have to be on their porch yelling and making threats in order to pick up his kids. His new wife or whoever was recording from their vehicle had the right idea staying there. No reason for her to be yelling from their vehicle instigating things further. Not sure how old the kids are, but he could stand by his vehicle to help them in if needed. Often best for stepparents to keep out of it altogether. Ask me how I know.Was he trespassing, or was he there on a scheduled pickup of his kids?
He also committed a gun grab with a heaping helping of life ending threats.
The bully was also trespassing and the list of his other errors were quickly compounding.
Ultimately he was a serious threat to the home owners life.
Thus the home owner defended himself.
Moral of this sad story: Don't go on someone's property and try to threaten that persons life to intimidate to get your way...doing so might be the end of you...
Yeah I thought it was a ruger pc9 as well. Good shot placement I guess.Is that a tacticool ruger pc9 ? I see a glock mag I think
Yea the victim dropped instantly. Hard to tell for sure since this was recorded on a shoulder mounted camcorder from the 80sYeah I thought it was a ruger pc9 as well. Good shot placement I guess.

True the kids should have been handed over if it is laid out that way in the court order. If a parent doesn't follow the court order it does not give you permission to take matters in your own hands. You get your court orders out and call the cops and let them get the kids. Going to someone's house and acting a fool will get you shot.If the kids were there as scheduled, he wouldn't have been yelling, or on the porch.
