No, but its typical of this country where the well being of the victim is very much second to the "rights"of the perpetrator, I have very little time for what goes on in America which in my opinion is not a very civilised country but if you were being threatened by a burgular or anyone else who has illegally entered your house and you shot him your rights come first and you probably wouldn't even stand trial, I fear for this old man as they will try and make some sort of example of him, it also appals me that the Police tell you not "to have a go", I would like to think that if I saw someone being beaten up or a victim of a robbery I would "have a go" and to hell with what the Police want, oh and I am 72

They had to arrest him though as he killed someone. I'm impressed he was released so quickly. It's an improvement at least on Farmer Martin all those years back.
