No Good Deed Goes Unpunished in CA.....Bus Passenger Who Broke Up Fight Charged With Murder After Man Later Dies

[1srelluc]

What started as an attempt to keep the peace turned tragic as a man is now charged with murder after helping break up a fight on a bus.

Edward Hilbert, 55, intervened in a fight on a San Diego city bus on Saturday, restraining a 28-year-old man for several minutes after he had gotten into a fight with a woman. During this time, the younger man lost consciousness and went into medical distress, police told ABC 10 San Diego, and was unresponsive when law enforcement responded to the scene.

First responders attempted to perform CPR while the man was lying on the bus floor, but he did not wake up and was eventually taken to a nearby hospital by paramedics. The fight initially began at around 8 p.m. local time, and the 28-year-old was pronounced dead at the hospital by 9:23 p.m.

"Officers from Central Division located the bus just north of F Street on 14th Street and found an unresponsive male lying on the floor of the bus," San Diego Police Lt. Steve Shebloski confirmed to CBS 8 News. "Officers called for medics and performed life-saving measures until paramedics arrived."

As a result of this incident, Hilbert was arrested Sunday on suspicion of murder and booked at the San Diego County Jail, according to a local CBS affiliate. He is scheduled to be arraigned in court on Wednesday.

The 28-year-old has been identified by authorities, but information about him has not been publicly disclosed, pending the notification of his family.

No Jury would convict him

The Prosecutor will drop the case

So? The punishment that Mr. Hilbert is enduring is the Liberal Legal Process. Hiring a lawyer, missing work, maybe having your firearms at home confiscated by the man are enough punishment to discourage anyone else from making the same mistake.

The race of the principals in this case aren't noted in the article- is Mr. Hilbert a Honky gentleman and is the deceased one of America's Sacred Cows- a black youth?

It would certainly explain the actions a lot better.

Civilized states don't make self-defense and defense of others a crime.

I urge all normal people to leave uncivilized leftist states.

I have a feeling that all has not come out on exactly what Mr Hilbert did to kill the guy.

It will come out in court

Where is the tox report on the deceased? It looks like an overdose death after a drug fueled attack was stopped.

It is also possible that the man will be forced into a plea deal where the prosecutor threatens life in prison but if he'll plea to a felony then they'll let him off with probation. It happens all the time.

Juries seldom acquit; they assume the prosecutor wouldn't charge if the guy wasn't guilty and the prosecutor knows that.

The prosecutor, unjustly and unethically, is allowed to tell the jury that it's not about right and wrong but is, instead, only about the words of the law. The defense, unjustly and unethically, is not permitted to talk about jury nullification and that the jury can acquit anyone they wish for any reason they wish and that misuse of the law or that the law might be right but just shouldn't be enforced in this case.

If you fight the prosecution because you're right, you have to be prepared to spend a very long time in prison.

I was on the Federal Grand Jury, Los Angeles, Calif. The Grand Jurors were a bunch of retards that believed whatever the prosecutor said, and questioned nothing. They actually said the making an indictment was doing the accused a favor.
