Down the street - 30' same difference still unjustified attack on someone in retreat.
I've read 3 articles.....I've yet to see how far the man walked away so was 30' just a guess? All of them say he was walking away, but was he 10' away or 50' . I'm guessing since they was stairs he was probably still in the building of the apartment complex.
Ok 1' it don't matter
Again I've yet to see where he was he was suckered punched.
I would also follow a random drunk man that just walked into my home 10 yards down the road. I think most people would. The running away after the punch is what I have a problem with.
How would you handle a drunk stranger coming in on your wife unannounced?
My wife and I. Don't forget he was there. if he continued advance I put two to the chest. If he retreated, professing apologies. I wouldn't follow him until I got the opportunity to shoot him. Or until he turned around and I punched him. When he left I'd call the police and have them follow up.
Yeah that's weird. That didn't cross my mind til you mentioned it.
Building. Not just apartment. He was in the wrong building. And those friends he was there drinking with, nobody could find them to get a statement.
and it wasnt like it was 3am and dark, it was the middle of the afternoon. my Chinese friend would say
When I said we probably don't know the whole story, this is what I was thinking.
In thinking McCullough stopped a potential rape.
I suspect you are correct.
Absolutely. But the suspect left and when he was talked into coming back he invoked his right to remain silent. So there was only one side to the story. Would him staying and making a statement have changed anything? Probably not. I also suspect he will have the best criminal defense attorneys that money can buy. As I said I don't suspect this will to trial, but I could be wrong. I personally would take a bunch of cash, medical bills paid and some new teeth.
