Reply To: The Silence is Deafening!

alanschwartz -“Health, so an innocent kid was chased and pushed but then he violently attacked the accused? That sounds like self defense not a violent attack.”

I don’t know if you’re college educated, or for that matter even graduated High School, but you are totally ignorant about American law. Yes, he did something wrong and it might even be called Battery (a crime), but this does Not Justify a violent response. The documented injuries on the accused proves that the guy violently attacked him; this isn’t Self-defense on the part of the victim! While it might not also be Self-defense on the part of the accused, (Ya know just two guys fighting), you have to give him the benefit of doubt, if there are No eyewitnesses!
