If the judge is a liberal, he will make a statement against the stand your ground law by applying a long sentence.I just find it all interesting AND uncalled for.
One of the articles described the shooter guy as being indigent. Some court had to approve his itemized legal expenses (according to the article). Whatever... they were pretty lenient it seems to me. Apparently his “legal team” consisted of four lawyers and paid for at least three or four “expert” testimonies. I never did understand if he was covered (or partially covered) under some other kind of insurance plan. Otherwise, it was at tax payers’ expense. I’m sure he’ll try to appeal, but that seems a very uphill battle for someone who has no money.
Judge immediately revoked his bail and he went to jail (pending his formal sentencing). The judge said and did a few minor things which indicated to me, he’s probably going to hand down a very stiff sentence to this fellow. Won’t surprise me if it’s the thirty years maximum.
