Dunn trial white man kills black kid in Florida GUILTY

[Penny24Seven]

Well Florida has changed the way it works. Dunn found guilty on 4 of 5 counts for killing a black kid by shooting into a car of blacks kids who were jamming to music way to loud for his taste.

[L-Pink]

Actually, "the 12-member jury indicated they believed Dunn was not guilty of first-degree murder, and was justified in using deadly force to defend himself from Davis."

It's the shots fired as the car drove away that he'll go to prison for.

gotta hand it to his attorney to be able to create enough reasonable doubt to throw the jury off on the murder charge, kinda sad though.

[Rochard]

They haven't delivered a verdict at all. They have decided on it, but not told the judge or the court what it was. They have received a verdict on the first four counts, but not the final one of murder.

But we still don't know what they've decided yet.

[L-Pink]

Stand your ground is a tough sell when firing at a car driving away.

yes, they did, they hung, it;s a mistrial on murder charge.

let him rot to hell ...

Fucking Florida.... I will be there in 10 days for a while ... Maybe I will sell my property... bought in 2011 at low price ( 170 K ) , can get 290K today and a 10% premium on exchange ...

Time to buy a place, if possible, in Cuba ..., way safer.

[directfiesta]

If the jury acquits Dunn on the charge of first-degree murder, or they are hung, it would be a blow for the prosecution and the Davis family.

from the reuters link ... just read it.

I did read it, you think i'm making shit up?

The judge declared a mistrial on the count of first-degree murder.

Everything is racist for you, no surprise here.
It is funny how people (especially white people) trys to stir racial tension and of course in favor of blacks. Isn't it funny how every time it is racist against blacks and almost never against whites?

DUnn's jaihouse letters

Dunn wrote:
The fear is that we may get a predominately black jury and therefore, unlikely to get a favorable verdict. Sad, but that?s where this country is still at. The good news is that the surrounding counties are predominately white and Republican and supporters of gun rights.?

In a letter addressed to his grandmother, Dunn claimed that all Blacks in jail acted like thugs:
?The jail is full of blacks and they all act like thugs. This may sound a bit radical but if more people would arm themselves and kill these (expletive) idiots, when they?re threatening you, eventually they may take the hint and change their behavior.?

[iSpyCams]

Apparently its gonna be 60 years before he's eligible for parole and he can still be re-tried for murder, so its not like he's getting away with anything. 99% chance he dies in prison whether he gets re-tried for murder or not.

Surprised at how little this was on the news but you are right. If he did not go back and fire more shots he could have gotten away with it so nothing has changed in Florida

[Penny24Seven]

because that is all they bring up in the news. It was all about the white guy killing young black kids. They had 2 people on after the show go on and on about it.
If the kids in the car were white it never would have went down like this. That is what they are saying.

yeah I know what you mean, They make so much shit up and talk about stuff that has nothing to do with it at all.
The guy was in the wrong for killing someone over playing music to loud. I am sure he could have went about that another way but to make it into a bigger story they twist that shit up.
L-Pink had a great point and I was not paying attention but he would have probably beat the charge if he didn't fire at the car when they took off.
Mis-trial means that do it over right? So it is a coin toss

[2030]

Same attorney in the midwest lawsuit against match?

But is that because of the media, society, or the fact that Dunn wouldn't have blown the kid away if he was white?

He's the one with the gun at the store shooting teenagers until he has no more bullets to fire.
That's a fucking thug if I ever heard of one.

I will never be able to understand the liberal mindset. They focus on cases like this but ignore the much higher rate of black on white crime. It is much much higher too.

Like the case of 4 or 5 black guys and 1 black woman that kidnapped a white couple out on a date, raped both and poured bleach down their throats, her vagina and both their asses to remove dna while they were still alive. They tortured them in other ways too.
Media mostly silent.

And no, what shit their great great great grand parents went through does not justify this and they are better off here now than back in Africa.

Liberals suck, in all ways.

[arock10]

First degree murder is premeditated. So I can see how that was difficult to determine. He wasn't off because of self defense

Sounds like a pretty open and shut case with not a whole lot of unique merit.

Now a guy shooting kids over their music and then still getting a mistrial on the murder charge.... Well that is considerably more news worthy. Not intellectually of course, but none of this stuff is

Just like the guy who shot the person in the movie theater for talking on their phone

[Matt 26z]

It's the shots fired as the car drove away that he'll go to prison for.

He says he saw the end of a shotgun, but none was found. Had authorities located one in the car he may have been found not guilty, if charged at all.

The police fire at cars driving away all the time. They also shoot fleeing gunmen in the back. Theory being, the gunman has already made a threat to end a life and he must be taken out rather than allowed to get into position to kill. Now this concept is gaining momentum in cases not involving cops. But firing into a car where no gun was found is pretty tough to defend and all things considered (mentioned by the mainstream media anyway) it appears as though he was looking for trouble.

One of the guys in the car could hypothetically have disposed of a shotgun before authorities arrived. I'm not familiar enough with the case to say whether that is possible or not though.

[brassmonkey]

basically life in prison on the smaller charges

[L-Pink]

basically life in prison on the smaller charges

The prosecutor said she was going to re-try Dunn on the murder charge. If she is allowed to do so it will be interesting because then Dunn will be testifying while already having been sentenced to basically life in prison. Be interesting to hear what he has to say with zero to lose.

[Creatine]

Florida seems to be raising killers. We need Dexter to go down there and take care of business.

most blacks are killed by blacks.... don't see much input on that from you

liberalism ends where inconvenience begins... be pretty inconvenient to admit to blacks killing white people

[Joshua G]

not surprised they hung on murder 1. seems more like murder 2 to me. not like he left his sons wedding looking to shoot someone. He just lost his cool.

but this crap happens all the time with prosecutors who over-reach on the charges.

Libs are just cautious because they feel bad about all the whites they have caught making up crimes against blacks which creates more people like you who are embarrassing.

nice try but ,FAIL

In other news, 4 black guys were shot and 1 killed by a single black shooter last night in a black club in Jacksonville, can't wait to see all the media attention this new case gets.

[bronco67]

The day a scared person buys a gun is start of the countdown until he shoots someone. I feel bad for this guy having to deal with prison, because he definitely does not look cut out for it, but he created the situation himself.

You are using the definition of premeditation from fictional TV show scripts.

Premeditation only requires forethought; 2 seconds of thought is enough to premeditate.

They had a premeditation charge because of things he said/did before he ever got out of the car with the gun.

He had to think to get out of the car with the gun and shoot. That's forethought.

If a person is really scared then why not shoot from the car.
Why get out first?
Why expose yourself more to the weapon you fear by getting out of the car?

Answer : Because you ain't scared and you're going to kill somebody and you know it when you get out of the car.

But you are right about it being a mistake to try him on 1st degree murder.
Not based on law but based on the results of recent cases.

I imagine that Michael Dunn is going to have a fun time explaining this quote to his new "roomies" for the next 60 years...

?The jail is full of blacks and they all act like thugs. This may sound a bit radical but if more people would arm themselves and kill these (expletive) idiots, when they?re threatening you, eventually they may take the hint and change their behavior.?

what's really telling is many of the guys on death row have already been to prison for manslaughter ....

Yeah, that's pretty bad to be inside a night club and still kill someone over loud music.
