Oh this is good. Dallas PD cop kills man

[TheMailMan]

Didn't she even drive to a higher floor in the parking garage?
She must have really been distracted while driving, too...

Yep. The 5th floor parking was under the open sky, the 4th floor parking was under cover. Then there's that huge red doormat that she didn't have.

She was horny, and in a hurry and it's going to cost her big time.

Her toxicology results were first made public today.

In her leaked 911 call she says 19 times she thought it was her apartment.
She also says "I'm gonna lose my job!"
Oops

I’m sure she was thinking a lot of things and I doubt her mental state out her in any position to form coherent or rational thoughts at that point.


Not a defense to her actions, but I wouldn’t put much stock in her ramblings as her mind raced through the coming consequences of her actions.

And that's why they tell you if you're involved in a shooting, keep your mouth shut and let a lawyer do the talking for you.

You haven't missed a thing.

Don't they have fried twinkies?

Either way, I’ll be paying attention to the verdict to make sure I’m not in Dallas when it comes out.

Just said that same thing to my wife. Either way the verdict goes, there will be riots.

Given Texas does not have charge for, “yeah I intended to shoot him because I am a stupid **** and thought he was in my apt, my bad so sorry”, what would you charge her with? The options are very limited under the Texas Penal Code

Well not an attorney so I dunno but it would not be 1st degree homicide. Let's go with the DA had no other option, it is pretty divided between you wanting that charge and me saying she was overcharged. You think you are going to get 12 people on that jury to agree with you? When they do not, what happens then? Protest that turn to riots? That is social justice for you.

She was she was convicted when Cruso changed charge from manslaughter to murder.

 

[Bithabus]

It's not murder.

 

[Inspector43]

Yep. 2 years ago, the "wanders" at the gate missed it. Of course, even with carrying, it might be a good idea to avoid crowds, specifically black crowds in high crime areas like where the Fair is.

Unless fair tickets are part of the welfare give outs you won't see too many at the fair.

 

[Inspector43]

So much is puzzling here.
I still am perplexed at how she got in to the wrong apartment.

I heard that the door was slightly ajar.

Have you been lately? It is not totally a wasteland during the day but try the Midway at night especially on a weekend night. Also, you better hope you can park inside the grounds because the outskirts are very sketchy. Anyplace near a MLK Blvd. Is suspect.

Thanks, don't think I will be going.

What!? Hood rats, bangers and low lifes are abundant at the State Fair. So much so that the DPD Gang Unit is out in force from dark till close.

Read back a few posts. I listed the homicide laws and the definitions of the culpable mental states.

What do you think the proper charge would be?

 

[Kar98]

But you do know where the Texas State Fair is located, right?

Huh? I do not want anything. I am just an opinionated observer. How is it you are so sure she was overcharged, but cannot state what the charge should be? Since it was not accidental, the options are severely limited.

You think you are going to get 12 people on that jury to agree with you?

You mean agree with the DA? Have no idea, juries are unpredictable.

When they do not, what happens then? Protest that turn to riots?

That is life in the big city.

Protest that turn to riots? That is social justice for you.

No , social justice is when you make charging decision based on fear of real justice prevailing and the consequences.

It's not murder.

What are we missing? it seems her actions fit the description exactly.

Texas Penal Code

Sec. 19.02. MURDER. (a) In this section:
...

b) A person commits an offense if he:

(1) intentionally or knowingly causes the death of an individual;

(2) intends to cause serious bodily injury and commits an act clearly dangerous to human life that causes the death of an individual;

Sure but every justifiable shooting fits that description. If she reasonably believed an intruder was in her home, then she shouldn't be convicted of murder.

 

[Renegade]

If she reasonably believed an intruder was in her home, then she shouldn't be convicted of murder.

Castle Law only applies if you are in your home, not if you think you are in your home. She killed a man while in the commission of another crime (trespassing), she is lucky her situation is not worse.

(c) A person who has a right to be present at the location where the deadly force is used, who has not provoked the person against whom the deadly force is used, and who is not engaged in criminal activity at the time the deadly force is used is not required to retreat before using deadly force as described by this section.

A metric shitload of defenses goes out the window since she had no right to be present at the location.

ok so you think the charge is correct, just she should be acquitted?
