Both parties were genuinely acting in self-defence, at that time, as stipulated by their respective physiology.

A tricky one, but Judge Jel rules hispaniwhitey not guilty of murder. Completely guilty of being a fucking idiot waste of space who created an unnecessary event, but that, imo, isn't murder. Manslaughter (which I think is the equivalent of murder 2 in americaland?) in my book.

Court adjourned. I mean closed. Whatever the right terminology is.
