Is this the one where the guy shoots the other guy with the gun facing back towards the house?

If so, I would have thrown the book at him. Dead guy was unarmed, not in the house, and the dumbass shooter was shooting towards the house when he shot.

A simple ass whipping would have got the job done.

Pretty sure the guy with the gun was confident he would've been the one taking the ass whipping; that's why he bumped chests with a gun in his hand.

People have forgotten that a good ole country ass whoopin goes a long way.
 
A duel at 20 paces should be legalized.
 
Don't show up at someone else's property acting like Billy Baddass and you may not get shot.

The guy had every right to shoot that dumbass. His fucking kid was not there anyway. He was told that and yet thought he could bully the homeowner around. He was wrong. Dead wrong!

Why wasn’t the kid there? Seems like the shooter may have set up the dead hothead to get pissed and then shot.

Little guy uses a gun to avoid an ass whipping, ends up shooting someone in the back. Would have approved murder charges and let the jury figure it out.
 
I am trying to understand that custody parameters.

sounds like Read was there to get his kid, who he was picking up at 3:15 as permitted by the court.

and the ex wife was keeping the kid from him

but meanwhile, this Carruth dude is banging the ex wife?
 
That’s an interesting one. I’m not pissed off about the ruling. For one, it’s Texas, and the onus will be totally on private property and self defense. I get it.

What I don’t get is….isn’t self defense the defense of person and not things (or home)? Maybe I’m missing something here and someone was inside, but once the threat is between you and the house it kind of devalues defense of personal/bodily safety.

Again, probably Texas being Texas on this. I could see a grand jury in Florida ruling the same (probably). Other states….not so much.

Aside from all of that….it’s a real pussy move. Said already but shooter did not have much hope in a fight. He didn’t have height or reach. And…considering he ran for gun, got shoved around and shot I don’t think he’s one of those smaller guys that can really fight.

Domestic shit like this is so ugly.

In Texas you are allowed to defend property, even your car.
My question is if it were after 3:15, then wouldn't this shooting be during the commission of a crime (not legally handing over a child per courts orders)? Seems self-defense goes out the window if you are actively committing a crime, but not sure the details of the house and the parents and all that.

This Carruth guy may have a legal self defense claim, but he needs his ass whooped. Little man hiding behind a gun, what a pussy. Civil case probably cleans him out.
 
never saw it. like me i think most here are sick of that cesspool and have blocked the forum
This will be political in about... 30 more seconds also. 40-something pages, most of this has already been said.
