86 year old man who shot black thug trying to break into house charged with TWO FELONIES.

Sorry, but you can't shoot an unarmed person on your doorstep through a storm door for ringing the doorbell.

Even if it wasn't an accident and the kid was there to commit a crime...you cannot use deadly force against a thought crime...i.e. "he intended to break in".

There must be an overt act of violence that causes fear of death or grievous bodily harm OR a forcible break in must have already occurred and the perpetrator is in the home...or the forced home invasion must be in progress...as in someone is kicking down your door.

And even in those cases, the moment the threat is ended or the unarmed perpetrator begins to flee or retreat, the rationale for use of deadly force is terminated.

There is no such thing as legal preemptive lethal force application.

This is the law in Missouri...Castle Doctrine and all. If you own a firearm for self protection in Missouri, you had better understand it.

Well, lots of dodos don't agree. If that happened in our towns here, the shooter's family would be wiped out.

Some 16.year Olds are over 6 feet tall. Not enough information.
There is no evidence for the story that the kid mistakenly went to the wrong house. The lawyers made that up. This was an attempted burglary. The black "victim" has collected $3.4 million so far.



Man, oh man. A thug comes to your door and gets three and a half million dollars for his con game, and the homeowner goes to jail for protecting his family from the con artist who had no business for pushing the homeowner's buttons. Woo hoo... :(

Defense failed in proving that. Tough.

That's some misrepresentation of what actually occurred :-(
 
The 'noise', beautress, includes the man had no legal defense to fire at someone through the door with fear of life or injury.

Trully, we cannot see the other person's recent life experiences such as getting mugged in an almost empty parking lot by frightening crime groupies or masked clown-dressed criminals carrying guns and machetes to force them to hand over the contents of their wallets; adversaries lying about a crime actually perpetrated by themselves but telling authorities we, not they stole expensive jewelry and were returning it to investigators when caught by way of cops noticing auto license numbers recorded near the shop they stole all of it from, and were injured by the perpetrators who were frightened by their own ahadows.
 
The media did look into it. So did the police. And that is why that man was charged with 2 felonies.
So show us the evidence supporting the thug's story. All we have so far is what the thug says and he wants money.

I read the article. The kid was going to pick up his younger brother. You got some evidence that says otherwise?
Otherwise, you just cant shoot someone ringing your doorbell because you are afraid.

Yup - this is yet another black scam. The thug was hoping for an altercation.
