Was thinking about this thread over the weekend as I enjoyed my little corner of frozen paradise away from phones, TV, internet. On Friday, the news story about the man in Montana broke. He'd been burgled. He set up motion detectors and when a kid went into his garage, he blasted him away w a 12 ga. Got 70 yrs for premeditated murder. Based on the reporters, it was largely because he'd publicly threatened to do the punks in. Does this thread constitute a similar threatening by some? Could PB forums be cited in a murder trial supporting premeditation?
I hope not, but a good lawyer might use anything he can get his hands on when it's needed to prove his case. And for the guy who set up this kid for a killing, I think he got what he should have. it was premeditated, I think he might have used a camera instead or just used the camera for what happened if he just confronted the kid in the garage. So if the kid attacked him and then he shot, he might not have gotten any cell time Tracy
Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.
